NOTES:
1Previous is defined as the universe of Form As and associated reporting burden from the NOA dated 3/2/08 for the Form A ICR. Note that these estimates were generated using the RY2005 PDR.
2Sum of Previous (above) and Change due to New Statute responses and hours.
3 Number of Forms that will lose Form A eligibility and must be filed as Form Rs minus the Form Rs that may revert to Form A eligibility. Since Form As on average address 2.2 chemicals, the number of Form A "Responses" is the number estimated for Form Rs, above, divided by 2.2, and is listed as a loss instead of a gain. Note that these estimates of responses are calculated using the RY 2007 PDR. Burden hours are calculated based on the Form A ICR approved by OMB in the NOA dated 3/2/08.
