Short Statement: There is an adjustment to this collection that is caused by an increase in the number of applicants to the NOAA Corps and an increase in the burden hours to complete the application process, as well as an adjustment to more accurately reflect the overall cost to the government in the administration of this collection. The number of applicants to the NOAA Corps has increased from 150 annually to 300 annually and the burden to complete the application and interview process has increased from 6.5 hours to 7 hours. The costs to the government increased from $6,000 to $115,725 as a result of including costs for NOAA Corps personnel involved in the review of applications and references and the conducting of applicant interviews. Previously, only travel costs for one Officer Personnel Board member had been included in the cost to the government.
