OSHA is requesting an adjustment increase of 1,244,760 responses (from 135,990 to 1,380,750) and an increase of 1,043 burden hours (from 67,995 to 69,038 burden hours). The increased estimate for the number of responses stems from a reconsideration of how this figure should be calculated. Prior estimates fully accounted for all time and cost burden but only counted responses imposing a time burden as a response for reginfo.gov database purposes. Employers who contract for an inspection also are making a response under the PRA, and this ICR adjusts the analysis. This ICR's adjustment increase is also a result of the number of portable fire extinguishers increasing from 1,359,900 to 1,380,750 (see explanation under Item 12). In addition, there is an increase in the cost under Item 13 from $19,888,538 to 20,193,469 (an increase of $304,931). This cost increase is the result of updated data indicating an increase in the number of establishments; thus, the Agency estimates an increase in the number of portable fire extinguishers inspected by outside contractors.
