The hour burden for this
information collection is being increased from 200 hours to 600
hours due to the estimated number of respondents increasing, from
1,200 to 3,600. The 2006 estimate of respondents included only
banks, but not trusts. Trusts now are included, because both banks
and trust are eligible to use the exemption. The equivalent costs
of the hour burden increased due to updating the labor rate.
