Short Statement: The current inventory estimate of 1,914 hours is based on the actual volume of responses collected by participating entities during FY 2006. Prior inventory hours where estimated based on collected U.S. training levels from FY 1996. Training levels have declined from a decade ago. The number of U.S. participants has declined sharply from 17,629 in FY 1995 to 4,589 in FY 2006. The U.S. participant decline has been partially (but not completely) offset by the increase in reported Third Country and In Country training. Therefore, the overall net result is a difference of 706 less total burden hours from the numbers reported in the original submission.
