Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The decrease in burden hours of 51,983 hours and increase in the cost burden of $4,738,860 are due to a decrease in the estimated number of annual Form 6-K responses (from 34,814 responses to 26,848 responses). The increase in cost burden reflects the Commission’s increase in the cost burden per hour estimate from $400 per hour to $600 per hour for outside professionals. That increase is offset, in part, by the decrease in the estimated number of annual Form 6- K responses.
