Burden Increase Due to:

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

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: This is an ADJUSTMENT due to an increase in burden. This increase is due to a correction from the previous renewal submission. Because of the error in ROCIS previously submitted, although there have been fewer recall campaigns in the past three years, it will show as an increase. This is partially a function of the number of boats that fail compliance testing at the Coast Guard test facility. It is also a function of economic forces; in a down economy there are fewer boat manufacturers and in turn a fewer number of recalls. There has been no change to the information being collected.
