Short Statement:
OEC streamlined its annual SCIP reporting process to obtain standard data to understand progress and challenges in emergency communications planning. OEC replaced the lengthier Annual Progress Report with the SCIP Snapshot (“Snapshot”) as a reporting mechanism for States and territories for submitting SCIP progress, achievements and challenges. The data collected is based on calendar year reporting. The SCIP Snapshot also includes sections for States and territories to report on the status of governance structures, progress towards SCIP goals and initiatives, and overall successes and challenges in advancing interoperable emergency communications. This Snapshot Reporting has reduced the burden time from 7 hours to 3 hour. As result of all the changes, the total burden estimates for the collection have reduced by 4 burden hours per response, 224 total annual burden hours, and $5,730 total annual burden cost (from $28,918 to $23,188). Also, the government burden and cost has been reduced by 1 hour per response, 56 annual burden hours, and $14,871 (from $23,311 to $12,660).
Annual Cost to Federal Government:
$12,660
