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

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: In this collection, there is no adjusted change in the number of respondents but a decrease from 595 annual responses to -414 and 11,080 total burden hours to -10,503. There is a program change increase of 391 respondents, 3,910 annual responses, and 31,280 burden hours due to the additional activity for "Trapping and Control of Fruit Fly Population," which accounts for the inspectors that monitor the fruit fly program. This additional burden was erroneously omitted in the previous renewal and was therefore in violation of the Paperwork Reduction Act. It is now being added to the current renewal.
