Name of Law: Plant Protection Act
Overall there is an increase of 324 responses and increase of 310 total burden hours due to adjustments.
This program change is a result from several burden activities being erroneously left off of the previous and first information collection. Specifically those burden activities included pest detection investigations, heat treatment requirements, and trust fund agreements.
This has resulted in an increase of total burden hours from 117 to 427 and an increase in annual responses increased from 74 to 398.
