			Program Change	Adjustment	Total
Exhibit 1 - Joining the ENERGY STAR Program and Related Activities	300	300	0	0	0	EPA made no adjustments to the number of respondents and burden estimates for this activity. The burden estimates in ICR 2193.05 reflect EPA's program experience gained over the past three years.
Exhibit 2 - Verification of ENERGY STAR Requirements	176,889	207,887	12,399	18,599	30,998	EPA made an effort to reduce the number of items requiring verification but program technical specifications have been revised requiring more rigorous verification. Additionally, the burden estimate has been adjusted due to a natural market shift from homes being rated via sampling to being individualy rates which requires more hours to complete.
Exhibit 3 - Evaluation	20	20	0	0	0	EPA made no adjustments to the number of respondents and burden estimates for this activity.
