Short Statement:
At current operations, the burden increased by 4 hours, from 272 hours (68 reports x 4 hours per report) to 276 hours (69 reports x 4 hours per report), and the cost from $75,616 to $78,336. This burden increase is due to a licensee now reporting its low enriched inventory on two separate forms instead of just one, resulting in an increase of 1 report per year. In addition, the cost to industry for professional effort has increased to $288/hour.
Annual Cost to Federal Government:
$39,168
