To whom it may concern,
The
revision of the burden hours this cycle has occurred because of
feedback from the field as well as better guidance from the
Information Collections Officer. The field was taking longer to fill
out form FS-5100-31, Health Screening Questionnaire, and so an
average of times communicated from the field was used. The form
FS-5100-41, USFS Wildland Firefighter Medical Qualifications Program
Physical Exam, time for completion increased to include the time to
complete the medical history as well as get the medical physical exam
completed. With the form FS-5100-42, Self-Certification Statement
and Blood Pressure Check, being similar to the FS-5100-31, the time
was increased to be similar. Forms FS-5100-41 and FS-5100-42 have
not been implemented yet but are projected to start implementation
this Fall of 2022.
