Respondents include all firms and individuals that comprise the U.S. uranium industry.

Short Statement:
There is a decrease in respondents as a result of a severe downturn in the domestic uranium industry. Many landholding and exploration companies are no longer in business or have exited the uranium industry. The number of respondents for Form EIA-851A has decreased from 48 to 30. The number of respondents for Form EIA-851Q has decreased from 15 to 11. EIA has increased Form EIA-851Q burden per response time from 45 minutes to one hour due to the results of a cognitive interview. Based on respondent comments that Form EIA-858 was taking longer than the 15 hours to complete and results from the study on response burden, EIA increased Form EIA-858 burden per response to 26 hours.
