The Agency is requesting a 1 hour adjustment decrease from 916 hours to 915 burden hours. The adjustment is a result of the elimination of federal access from the burden hour calculation in this ICR. Also, the Agency is increasing the cost from $105,912 to $112,808, a total cost increase of $6,896. The cost increase is due to a 6.7% increase in the price of professional medical services from 2011 to 2014.
