The Agency is requesting a 577
burden hour decrease (from 1,607 hours to 1,030 hours) which is
primarily the result of decreasing the number of establishments and
their jobsites based on an industry resource. There is an overall
decrease in capital costs of $17,562 (from $80,412 to $62,850)
which is the result of the reduction in the number of
establishments and affected job sites. This is offset partially by
an increase of estimated cost of medical examinations from $150 to
$168 and an increase of estimated cost of laboratory airborne
sample analysis from $100 to $107.
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
1320.8(b)(3).
