Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: This is a revision of a currently approved collection. The current burden inventory is 36 burden hours. The revised estimate for this collection is 31 hours; which decreased the burden by (-5) hours. This decrease is a result of program adjustment due to miscalculations. In our previous estimations, an incorrect calculation was made regarding the number of respondents completing the FNS-339 form. This form contains a checkbox for the Program(s) being submitted and a signature line for the authorizing official’s signature. The previous estimate had counted one respondent per Program. Once it was identified that one respondent could sign for multiple programs, the estimate was recalculated and is now correct. There is also program adjustments due to the number of respondents participating which increased from 142 to 188, an increase of eighteen (46) respondents
