Short Statement: This is revision request of a currently approved collection. The decrease in annual cost compared to current OMB inventory is because of fewer number of respondents (9,000 versus 9,900) and more respondents submitting electronically instead of paper form 2530. Also, the burden hours for review time of e-2530 is reduced due to the implementation of new 24CFR Part 200 (published October 14, 2016) that requires respondents to streamline the information submitted. Hourly cost is adjusted to reflect current salary of a GS12.
