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

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The estimated burdens have been adjusted to reflect that the initial paperwork burden estimates were in regard to adopting new requirements for all respondents. As all those initial respondents have incurred the initial burdens associated with Regulation SCI, the number of respondents currently estimated to incur initial burdens is substantially lower and reflects the estimated 2 new SCI entities per year. Further, estimates have been revised based on data obtained since Regulation SCI was adopted in 2014 regarding the number of SCI events and associated SCI notifications.
