Short Statement:
The OMB reporting inventory for FY '11 and FY '12 was for 1832 annual respondents and 15,358 annual burden hours for each year. There were changes in the inventory for both FY '13 and FY '14. For this reason, the average inventory over the last two years was used to estimate the requested annual number of respondents and annual burden hours. Using the average from FY '13 through FY '14, the reduction in the annual number of respondents is 171 and the reduction in the annual burden hours is 1,877. The difference is primarily due to fewer invention disclosures and patent waiver requests received during FY '13 and FY '14.
