Short Statement: The annual burden hours and annual number of respondents has decreased. Based on recent collection activity, Commission staff adjusted the number of respondents from 12 respondents to 6 respondents annually.

This results in an estimate that is representative of actual filings received over the last three years. The decrease is due mostly to typical fluctuation in industry activity.
