Short Statement: The total number of responses, 11,150, represents an increase of 1,302 responses from the 2013 submission of 9,848 responses. Application activity has increased year to year over this period. The new total number of responses is the result of using the projected number of applications for FY16, based on FY16 activity to date (an estimated 2% increase over FY15 actual responses for approved/certified applications), in order to obtain the most accurate estimate possible. In addition, the costs of paying a contractor to complete paperwork were previously reported as a non-burden hour cost. In November, 2015, OMB notified the NPS that we should discontinue counting the cost of paying a contractor to complete paperwork as a non-burden hour cost. Therefore, this submission was adjusted and the changes are categorized as adjustments to comply with OMB’s directive.
