Short Statement: The new burden estimate is substantially decreased from the initial submission as this resubmission includes only the required reporting for the 12 cooperative agreement recipients and does not include an application process. The time estimates were calculated based on the standardized requirements that are either read or submitted for all MS cooperative agreement Programs (RFA, SF-424, AMS 33, Terms and Conditions, amendments, and reporting), and the experiences and input of cooperators in completing required reporting.
