Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: Although the survey has been revised, the revisions are burden neutral with respect to the time per response. Nevertheless, the total burden decrease of -1250 hours is the result of an adjustment of -7500 in the estimated number of respondents. The adjustment to the number of respondents reflects the FDIC's assumption that the response rate for the June 2011 survey will be roughly equivalent to the 86% response rate for the January 2009 survey.
