Short Statement: The last OMB inventory for this collection was for 40,000 respondents at 5 minutes each and 3333 burden hours. This request is also for 5 minutes but for half of the respondents. Based on results of previous annual collections 40,000 was not reached. Additionally, there is no expected growth in the number of annual individual registrations, and 20,000 is the approximate annual return we expect for each of the next three years.
