Further, the information collections approved under control numbers 0560-0158 and 0560-0171 are transferred to this new control number. Control numbers 0560-0158 and 0560-0171 will be retired when the final rule this document supports will be effective. As a result of the information collection analysis completed for the final rule, the total burden hours for FLP were increased. In some cases the increase was due to changes in the number of respondents, responses per respondent, or response time. In other cases the increase was due to the addition of existing information collections that are currently unapproved.
