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

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The number of responses increased from 696 to 710. The number of annual burden hours increased from 348 to 1,046. The burden increase is primary due to an increase in the number of fee-related contracts and tasks orders. The change in responses is the result of two offsetting factors. There is an increase in responses due to an observed increase in the average number of invoices per task order. This increase was partially offset by a decrease due to a change in how the agency is calculating the number of responses to better reflect the structure of the contracts.
