Short Statement:
The agency is requesting an adjustment decrease in burden from 18,075 to 7,047 hours, a difference of 11,028 hours. The decrease in burden is due to removing the collection of information requirements for rule familiarization, and a decrease in the non-compliance rate by 60 percent, since the standard has been in effect for the past three years. The total estimated capital cost is $2,249,246. The change in cost is due to the change in the non-compliance rate.
