Short Statement:
We are reporting 90 responses totaling 12,000 annual burden hours, which is an adjustment decrease of 150 responses and 64,800 burden hours from our previous submission. We have reduced the number of business opportunities we announce each year, due the elimination of our backlog. Based on our experience over the last 3 years, we have reduced estimates for the number of responses we will receive for each announcement. In addition, we have instituted a limit on the number of pages allowed per response, thereby reducing the completion time for each offer. We believe our previous estimates for completion times were high, especially for small concessions. The institution of page limits has reduced the volume of information we receive, especially for large concessions, by up to 75 percent.
