The decrease in burden is due to revised lower estimates in the number of respondents and the elimination of Form CP20**C. Every year several hundred cooperatives cease to exist due to mergers, consolidations, and going out of business. Thus, fewer survey forms are returned. Form C was eliminated to reduce burden of survey entry work and paperwork. The decrease in respondents and elimination of Form CP20**C results in an adjustment decrease of 209 responses and 207 hours.
