Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The burden estimate has slightly increased as a result of an increase in the number of awardee institutions, which went from 5,435 to 5,748 and in an increase in the number of minutes per online submission from 10 minutes to 12 minutes, because of the six new questions (n=30) asked on the PHS-6349. The new questions were added to allow institutions to include unique institutional identification numbers for their cases and to include other federal agencies’ unique identification numbers for their cases and to include a specific instruction to contact the National Institutes of Health if a case involves foreign influence. As there were no changes to the sub-awardee form, the estimated burden hours per response would remain the same for sub-awardee institutions at five minutes per online submission.

Annual Cost to Federal Government: $46,504
