Short Statement:
There was an increase in the number of respondents from 3 in the previous collection to 9 respondents for this collection. The increase in the number of respondents also increased the total annual responses of 53 from the previous collection to 149. There was also an unexpected number of applicants than originally anticipated which resulted in an increased number of applications received. The increased number of applications necessitated additional awards, resulting in the increased number of burden hours in this collection from 242 burden hours from the previous collection to 647 burden hours.
