Short Statement:
The estimated total annual burden for the FR 3054 is 20,400 hours, and would increase to 21,125 hours with the revisions. The Board has increased the estimated respondents for the FR 3054b from 300 to 500, increased the estimated frequency for the FR 3054d from four times a year to five times a year, and increased the estimated frequency from five times a year to ten times a year, and decreased the estimated number of respondents from 500 to 250 for the FR 3054e. The increase in the frequency of surveys allows the Federal Reserve System flexibility to respond to diverse needs for data by surveying groups of respondents multiple times throughout a year. Increasing the number of estimated respondents of the FR 3054b will help ensure statistical significance of the sample pool and decreasing the estimated number of respondents while increasing the frequency of the FR 3054e will facilitate more survey agility.
