Short Statement: The current OMB inventory for this information collection shows a total burden of 28,311 hours and 164,734 responses while the requesting inventory estimates a total burden of 3,980 hours and 159,925 responses. Overall, the burden for this submission has decreased by 24,331 hours and decreased by 4,809 responses. There is no change in the method of the collection. The decrease in burden is solely the result of adjustments. FRA determined some of the estimates were not PRA requirements, thus leading to the increased figures in the current inventory. For instance, non-PRA requirements, such as, trainings and testing were removed. The table under question 15 of the supporting justification provides specific information on any burden estimates that have changed from the previous submission.
