Short Statement: There is a program change of +55 burden hours and an adjustment of -10 burden hours. The number of respondent increased from 40 to 83. The program change is a result of adding VS Form 17-129 to this collection which was inadvertently omitted from the previous collection. With the addition of this form there was an increase of +222 responses and +55 burden hours. There is an adjustment decreasing the number of responses by -42 responses causing a decrease in the number of burden hours to -10. The adjustment is due to the decrease in the number of times the respondents responded for the certificates.
