Burden Increase Due to:

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The change in burden is an ADJUSTMENT due to a decrease in the estimated number of plans to be submitted to the CG annually. The principal reason for the decrease is a decline in the number of vessels in operation that are at or above 30 years of age due to the OPA 1990 phase-out schedule of Single Hull vessels and Single hull vessels with Double Bottoms, Double Sides or Double Sides and Bottoms.
