Short Statement: This is a new collection. However, the original estimate provided in the Federal Register Notice (87 FR 60367) has been revised based on additional input and reports from stakeholders regarding the actual time needed to complete the form. The estimated number of respondents from the Federal Register Notice has changed slightly from 110 respondents to 115 and the average estimated amount of time spent completing the form has decreased from one hour per form to 15 minutes per form. This has resulted in the estimated total annual burden on respondents decreasing from 500 hours to 58 hours. The estimate provided in the Federal Register Notice was based on earlier input on a draft form and the estimate has since been revised based on updated input on the final form.
