Short Statement: Government cost has been updated to correct an oversight in the previous submission. The figure in the previous submission did not take into account that Inspection Authorization: Renewal takes place every other year. Each form is identified as a separate IC in this submission. The burden hours are the same. However the number of responses was incorrectly reported in the previous submission due to combining the forms as one IC. Thus there is an increase in the number of responses in this submission.
