Short Statement: The changes in burden of Form 10-Q relate to new disclosure requirements about mine safety matters. These disclosure requirements implement Section 1503 of the Dodd-Frank Act, which requires disclosure of specified mine safety and health violations, orders and citations and related matters in periodic reports. The change in burden for Form 10-Q corresponds to the new disclosure requirements. We estimate the new rules will result in an annual increase of 3,375 hours and an increase in the cost burden of $450,000 for services of outside professionals.
