Short Statement:
This information collection includes an adjustment decrease of 36,000 burden hours from 40,000 to 4,000 hours. The burden hour reduction is a result of a reduction in the respondent pool due to lack of funding for these programs as well as programs with less than 10 applications anticipated to compete. The table below provides a breakdown of the programs, number of respondents and burden hours included in the previous package which totaled 40,000 hours. The current collection with a total of 4,000 hours includes only one program, 84.129, anticipated to compete in FY 2013 with a reduced number of respondents anticipated for that program as well.
