Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: There are no program changes. The estimated total annual hours burden has slightly decreased from 2,490,000 estimated hours in 2010 down to 2,446,610 estimated hours in 2013. This slight decrease is largely attributable to our estimate that more manufacturers make warranty information available in electronic form than in paper format to fulfill their obligations under the Rule. This results in less compliance time for each manufacturer. The associated labor burden figure increased from $47,312,356 in 2010 to $51,378,810 in 2013. This labor cost increase is attributable to a slight increase in the hourly rates since 2010.
