Short Statement: FSIS has increased its estimate of total annual burden hours from 8,400 to 8,600. This increase is the result of a change in the number of respondents FSIS estimates will be affected by this information collection. FSIS is: (1) decreasing its estimate of the number of respondents who will provide notification of a new technology from 250 to 75; (2) increasing its estimate of the number of respondents who will develop new technology protocols from 40 to 50; and (3), increasing its estimate of the number of respondents who will conduct in-plant trials from 40 to 50. These changes are based on FSISs experience since this information collection was last approved. FSIS has not changed its estimate of the response time required under each category. The result is an increase in the total estimated burden hours from 8,400 to 8,600.

Annual Cost to Federal Government: $192,400
