The "Business
Confidential Data Request" package is approved through October
1987. Any subsequent request for OMB approval of this package
should contain the following: 1. A separate justification for each
of the forms in this package tha explains specifically how each
form is used and why each form is necessary to the operation of the
Trade Adjustment Assistance program, and 2. A burden estimate for
each form in the package as well as an aggregate burden estimate
for all the forms in the package. DOL has included the ETA 8573-I
form in this submission for the first time. OMB is not satisfied
that the burden for this form has been accounted for in previous
submissions of this package. OMB, therefore, has added 100 hours to
the total burden estimate for this package, which is the DOL burden
estimate for the ETA 8573-I. OMB has counted the burden as a
program change increase since this form was no submitted prior to
October 1, 1985, the deadline for submission of all "bootleg"
forms.
