Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: There is an increase of one burden hour due to how ROCIS rounds burden hours to the nearest whole number from 2.5 burden hours (10 respondents x 0.25 burden hours) to 3 total burden hours. FEMA split the instrument from one line item into two line items to correspond with the difference between managerial and administrative respondents. The changes to the annual cost burden come from the slight increase in burden hours and the change in BLS reported wage rates.

Annual Cost to Federal Government: $56,440
