OSHA is requesting an adjustment increase of 4,489,161 responses (from 1,380,750 to 5,869,911) an increase of 224,458 burden hours (from 69,038 to 293,496 burden hours). The increased estimate for the number of responses stems from a reconsideration of how this figure should be calculated. Employers who contract for an inspection also are making a response under the PRA, and this ICR adjusts the estimate up to account for this. This increase is also a result of the change in the estimate of portable fire extinguishers from 1,380,750 to 5,869,911 (see explanation under Item 12). In addition, there is an increase in the cost under Item 13 from 20,193,469 to $95,386,054 (an increase of $75,192,585). This cost increase is the result of updated data indicating a decrease in the number of establishments; thus, the Agency estimates an increase in the number of portable fire extinguishers inspected by outside contractors.
