Burden Reduction Due to: Changing Regulations

Short Statement: The currently approved OMB inventory is 196,547 burden hours for 30 CFR Part 550, Subpart C requirements for this collection. This submission requests 112,111 hours. We made a program decrease of 123,955 hours due to eliminating the requirements and burden hours that were relegated to BSEE (OMB Control Number 1014-0023). We also made a net adjustment increase of 39,519 hours due to re-estimating the time industry takes to complete the requirements, based on consultations, as well as a net increase in the number of annual responses. The number of responses increased primarily for submissions under §§ 303(k) and 304(a); (g) that require collecting and reporting of air emissions data. Submissions are based on the number of facilities required to participate during the last emissions inventory. There are no non-hour cost burdens for this collection.
