Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The current OMB inventory for this collection includes 137,940 burden hours. In this submission we are requesting 137,835 which is an adjustment decrease of 105 burden hours. The reasoning for the decrease is the requirement to request a training video is no longer submitted. The NTL-2013-G03 provides the guidance that was in the training video. BSEE inadvertently missed this change in the prior renewal. There are no non-hour cost burdens associated with this collection.
