Short Statement: FEMA Form 119-25-1 (formerly 75-5) has combined the paper and electronic submission methods previously listed due to the single method currently available to submit the information. This results in an increase of 1,500 hours for non-electronic submission and a decrease of 1,333 for elimination of the former electronic submission option. The annual hour burden for the collection activity has an overall net increase of 167 hours. FEMA Form 119-25-2 (formerly 75-5A) has combined the paper and electronic submission methods previously listed due to the single method currently available to submit the information. This results in an increase of 1,500 hours for non-electronic submission and a decrease of 1,250 for elimination of the former electronic submission. The annual hour burden for the collection activity has an overall net increase of 250 hours. FEMA Form 119-25-5 (formerly FEMA Form 95-22) has an increase in annual hour burden due to the addition of the 67 annual hours burden approved in this collection to the 333 annual hours burden approved in collection OMB Control Number 1660-0021. The annual hour burden for the collection activity has an overall net increase of 333 hours. “Additional Documentation: Letter of Intent, Resume, Letter of Recommendation, Diploma Photocopy, Organization Chart” is a collection activity added to this collection due to the requirement for this information in combination with FEMA Form 119-25-5. This results in an increase in 400 annual burden hours. FEMA Form 119-25-4 (Student Stipend Amendment, formerly FEMA Form 75-3A) has increased by 33 annual hours burden. The annual hour burden was inadvertently not added into the last collection request and is now reported.
