Short Statement:
The adjustments are as follows: (a) The current OMB inventory for this collection is 20,132 burden hours. In this submission, we are requesting, 46,136 hours. This represents an adjustment increase of 26,004 hours due to re-estimating the number of responses, times the hour burden submitted by respondents in A.8. (b) The current OMB non-hour cost burden inventory is $4,593,246. In this submission, we are requesting a total of $1,361,176. This represents an adjustment decrease of $3,232,070. The decrease is due to less vent meters needing to be purchased from the previous 3-year collection and re-estimating the average number of annual responses.
Annual Cost to Federal Government:
$3,321,792
