This ICR includes 11 new activities adding 3,400 responses and 485 hours of burden. 11 activities were removed after 6 years of no responses, removing 11 responses and 11 hours of burden. The previous submission overreported 534 responses and underreported 1,799 hours of burden. The remaining 80,020 additional responses and 168,814 reduced burden hours were the result of estimate adjustments.
The number of estimated State respondents was overreported in previous submissions and adjusted from a high of 6,231 to 50 in this request. In other instances where the estimated number of other respondents or responses were also reduced, it was because the previously reported figures were overestimated or reporting incidents are fewer due to less incidents, changes in program delivery, or reduced reporting requirements. Adjustments to both respondent and response estimates for Compliance Agreements (State) resulted in a reduction of 135,618 hours of burden.
A review of recordkeeping requirements also revealed previous figures were under or overreported depending on the respondent, and the estimated number of respondents and response times were adjusted. In one activity, Recordkeeping Under Compliance Agreements for P. Ramorum, the total burden hours for State respondents decreased by 121,959 hours, but the total for Business respondents increased by 182,307 hours.
