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

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The 3-year average burden hour estimate is 16,439 hours more than the burden hours for the previously approved SAS. This increase is due to three factors: (1) we will be asking for two years of data for the 2016 SAS, (2) we will collect accommodation and food services industry as part of SAS beginning with survey year 2016 (note that the increase to SAS burden hours will result in corresponding reduction in the ARTS burden hours), and (3) the peak period for number of respondents is at the beginning of the new sample. The number of respondents tends to drop each year due to companies that are found to be out-of-scope to SAS.
