Since this is a reinstatement of a previously discontinued collection all burden for this collection is considered new burden. The previously approved burden was 25,500 respondents and responses, and 27,024 hours, the changes in burden between the previously approved level and this request results from the Bureau revising its burden estimates to reflect future plans to conduct studies under this generic information collection plan. Furthermore the total annualized burden for this plan is a three-year average, there may be variations in the amount of burden used each year owing to the nature of the Bureauâs regulatory review schedules.
