Short Statement: The burden has increased from 726 hours to 1,452 hours due to an increase from six to 12 in the number of respondents. The increase is based on comments received stating that there would be an increase in requests for assistance due to the number of admitted parties and the long period of time that the licensing proceeding has been suspended. The cost per hour decreased slightly from $272 to $265, however, the increase in the number of respondents resulted in an overall increase in the cost.
