Short Statement: The current OMB inventory for this collection is 350,615 burden hours. This collection requests the addition of +254 burden hours. 20 hours were removed from § 250.715 (GPS for MODUs), but 274 hours were added for § 250.732(a) related to submission of ITP verifications. Currently approved non-hour cost burdens are 6,732,500. This collection requests 11,891,400 with the addition of 5,158,900 due to § 250.732(a) Independent Third-Party costs for $11,805.000 (1,574 x $7,500 (ITP fee) = $11,805,000). The estimate for an Independent Third Party is based on and provided by BSEE's Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) and their experience with the requirements, and ITP work involved/to be done. The SMEs regularly talk with the third parties and operators, so they have a better understanding of the tasks needed to fulfill the regulations. There is no public information available to cite for the estimate of ITP costs.
