Short Statement: OOSHA is requesting a decrease in the burden hours from 1,623 to 1,613, a difference of 10 hours. This decrease is due to the decrease in the number of establishments used for shipyards. This data is based on the Final Economic Analysis for subpart F (see Table 1). The cost under item 13 has reduced from $37,798 to $37,650, a difference of $148. Additionally, the Agency's "Current Inventory Report" erroneously lists the number of annual responses associated with the previous ICR as 36,755 (see http://omb.report/icr/201105-1218-020). The correct number should have been 3,080 (the same number of respondents associated with this current ICR.
