Burden Increase Due to:

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

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: There is an increase in the total estimated respondent burden as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. The change in burden is due to an increase in the number of sources subject to the standards, and is not due to any program changes. The number of sources has been increased to account for industry growth that has occurred since the most recent ICR was approved. Also, there is an increase in the respondent cost from the most recently approved ICR due to the use of updated labor rates. This ICR references labor rates from the Bureau of Labor Statistics to calculate the respondent burden cost. There is a decrease in the total estimated Agency burden as compared to the most recently approved ICR. This change is due to a revision in the labor burden estimate for repeat performance testing. Due to a discrepancy in the previous ICR, the labor burden for repeat performance testing included respondents who passed the initial performance test. The revision accounts only for respondents who failed the initial performance test resulted in the reduced labor burden observed in this ICR. Also, note that the ICR also incorporates updated labor rates from OPM.
