Short Statement: There was a data entry error made in the ROCIS system that inadvertently stated a burden hour total of 956 hours, however, the previously approved information collection request consistently states the correct burden hour estimate of 955 hours. Therefore, there is no adjustment to the burden hours which remain at 955 hours. However, the Agency is requesting an increase in cost of $4,288, from $91,000 to $95,288. The increase is a result of updating costs for exposure monitoring which increased from $92 to $98, administering medical examinations which increased from $130 to $135, and medical questionnaires which increased from $35 to $37. Lastly, the costs for employers to transfer records to NIOSH increased from $37 to $40.
