Short Statement: FEMA reduced the number of estimated declaration requests based on an updated analysis of historical declaration requests. This reduction in requests drove the overall reduction in burden hours. There was a 7,753 reduction in burden hours for this update to the information collection. In previous submissions of this information collection question 12 identified two-line items, Governor’s Request and the Initial Data Gathering for the Governor’s Request. To more accurately capture the burden, we have separated the previous submission of two line items into four- line items. The four lines are State Governors, Tribal Nation Chief Executive, State Support Worker, Tribal Nation Support Worker. These separations capture the differences in burden hours and wage rates of each category. There was a $388,210 reduction in cost burden for this update to the information collection.

Annual Cost to Federal Government: $9,336,210
