Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The change (i.e., increase) in burden is both a PROGRAM CHANGE and an ADJUSTMENT. The current OMB inventory is 2,789 hours. The requested burden is 9,923 hours. The total change in burden is +7,134 hours. A PROGRAM CHANGE results from the "Marine Vapor Control Systems" final rule. The Coast Guard is revising the existing safety regulations for facility and vessel vapor control systems (VCSs). The final rule's changes make VCS requirements more compatible with new Federal and State environmental requirements, regulate industry advancements in VCS technology, and codify the standards for the design and operation of a VCS at a tank barge cleaning facility. These changes increase the safety of operations by regulating the design, installation, and use of VCSs, but would not require anyone to install or use VCSs. The total Program Change to the burden is +8,041 hours. The ADJUSTMENT results from a change in the population of VCS-related facilities and tank vessels. This population change adjusts burden estimates for the current collection of information. The Adjustment for this rulemaking is – 907 hours.
