The Agency requests an adjustment increase of 1,943 burden hours (from 8,104 hours to 10,047 burden hours). This adjustment is because of economic growth and measured additional non-residential construction which has resulted in more hoists and elevators in use.

The following is a summary of the topics, regarding the proposed collection of information, that the certification covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
