There is an increase of 9,000
total annual burden hours from the previously reported for this
information collection, from 50,000 annual burden hours to 59,000.
This increase may be attributed to the increase in the estimated
number of respondents to this from 1,000,000 to 1,180,000, based an
adjustment in agency estimates. There is no change in the
information being collected.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
