Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: Yes

Burden Reduction Due to: Miscellaneous Actions

Short Statement: The new annual burden of 30,603 hours is up 5,533 hours from the previous inventory of 26,070 hours. The net increase is a result of program changes and adjustments. The program changes involve the discontinuation of four surveys that were previously conducted under cooperative agreements with the California State Department of Agriculture that will not be included in this renewal. - Prune Crop Handlers Report - Grape Crush and Purchase Inquiry - Raisin Crop Handler’s Report - Walnut Crop Handlers Report The adjustments come from minor changes to the target populations, with the exception of the increase in burden hours. The increase in burden hours is to accommodate a request from the California Department of Agriculture. The Grape, Almond and Walnut Acreage Survey, and Citrus Acreage Survey, which are conducted under cooperative agreements with NASS, will also include the respondents confirming parcel sheets that contain data the respondents reported in previous surveys. The burden for completing the questionnaire will remain the same as previously reported (10 and 20 minutes respectively). However, the burden minutes reflected in the table in item 12 above says 40 minutes. The extra minutes will be for the respondents to approve previously reported data contained on the parcel sheets.
