PL:
Pub.L. 110 - 28 9007 Name of Law: U.S. Troop Readiness, Vetrans
Care, Katrina Recovery and Iraq Accoutnability Appropriation
Act
The annual burden hour has been
increased by 32,010(35,250-3,240). The reasons for changes in
annual burden are in the following: (a) multiple Program Years-
under the revised program, a producer may apply for up to three
program years if applicable. A disaster must be declared for the
county in which the producer operates in the year (s) for which the
application is filed. This is a change from the previous program
that required information for only a specific period during one
calendar year. This change requires the number of milk cows in the
herd to be reported for the 12 months of the marketing year for
which the dairy operation is requesting benefits, rather than only
for four months under the previous program. This increases the
number of respondents participating in the program; (b)in the
previous program a producer had to operate in a declared disaster
county. Under the revised program, contiguous counties are
eligible. This increases the number of respondents participating in
the program; and (c)the travel time increases the total burdens due
to increased respondents in the program.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR

(i) Why the information is being collected;
