With this renewal, we are documenting a net increase of 274 annual hours and an additional eight (8) respondents completing the application and reporting associated with the Archeological Permit process. This increase is based on the feedback collected from our public outreach in question 8, indicating the estimated time to engage with the information was disproportionally low. Based on that feedback we increased the time to complete the reporting from 4 hours to 7.5 hours for each section.
