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

Burden Increase Due to:

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

Burden Reduction Due to: Cutting Redundancy

Short Statement: There will be a decrease in the hours of the After Action Report/Improvement Plans / FEMA Form FF-008-FY-21-102 (formerly 091-0-1) collection due to a decrease in the number of reports estimated to be submitted from state, local, and Tribal governments. This reflects actual data collection for several years, compared to an overestimation previously submitted. While there will still be a collection of the After Action Report/Improvement Plans / FEMA Form FF-008-FY-21-102 (formerly 091-0-1) from state, local, Tribal, and territorial governments, there will no longer be a collection of the AAR/IP (FEMA Form FF-008-FY-21-102 (formerly FEMA Form 091-0-1)) from the Federal Government. The collection of Integrated Preparedness Plans / FEMA Form FF-008-FY-21-100 (formerly 008-0-26) will not change, while the actual collection of National Exercise Program (NEP) Nomination Form / FEMA Form FF-008-FY-21-101 (formerly 008-0-27) support request forms will be less than previous estimates. There will be a reduction in the annual cost burden of $700,047 due to a decrease in the number of the number of respondents and the number of responses per respondent. There was also a change in the average hourly wage rate.
