Short Statement: Information collection related to the CRC recordkeeping requirement was approved by OMB under OMB control number 2900-0491. This information collection approval expired on July 31, 1990, and was never renewed. However, the recordkeeping requirement continues to be part of the CRC standards, and VA continues to include access and review of those records as an integral part of the CRC inspection process. VA is now requesting reinstatement of the previously approved information collection under control number 2900-0491. The one time per year response estimate remains valid, as the CRC is required to collect this information only one time per year. Burden hours are 0.11 per response. However, the number of estimated respondents has decreased significantly since the original ICR was approved.
