Changing Regulations
Burden reflected in this ICR is an average over a three-year period. After a first year burden increase, the revised information collection is expected to reduce burden from the currently approved 199,350 to 107,100 total annual burden hours (a decrease of 46 per cent). The reduction in burden hours comes from two sources: the proposed rescission of the part 61-250 regulations and elimination of the VETS-100 reporting requirement, and the reduction in the number of unique items the contractor would be required to complete on the proposed VETS-4212 Report. The proposed VETS-4212 Report requires fewer reportable items. The currently approved VETS-100A Report required under the existing part 61-300 regulations has 82 unique reportable items. The proposed VETS-4212 Report that would replace the currently approved VETS-100A Report has just 42 unique items-a reduction of nearly 50 percent. The reduction in the number of reportable items is expected to reduce the time it takes to complete and file the annual report on veterans' employment. VETS estimates that it would take contractors 20 minutes (a reduction of 10 minutes per report) to complete and electronically file the proposed VETS-4212 Report and 40 minutes (a reduction of 20 minutes per report) to complete a paper version of the proposed VETS-4212 Report. VETS has reconsidered whether this information collection imposes operational costs on contractors that mail their responses; consequently, while this collection may actually reduce such costs, the fact that paper and mailing was previously not included results in a non-discretionary adjustment in the estimated cost of $1,080 per year. While not reflected in the reginfo.gov database, Table 6 shows that over a ten-year period, the proposed rule is expected to save Federal contractors approximately 804,300 burden hours and about $18,233,780 in salary equivalent burden costs.
