This information collection
facilitates the addition of needed work classifications and wage
rates for employers engaged on HUD-assisted construction
projects.
The overall decreases in burden
hours and costs relative to surveys involves more accurate
estimates of the amount of time needed for employers to respond to
a survey request (+3,600) and more appropriate calculations for the
burden on the agency to evaluate survey responses-based on the
number of surveys rather than the nimber of employer responses
(-12,000). Regarding Item 14, the increased costs reflect 2009
versus 2006 staff wage rates.
