Short Statement: This is an updated collection with a revised associated burden. Nine survey questions are added to this survey for more targeted information collection on the demonstration. These additions have resulted in a slight increase in estimated response time (9 minutes to 10 minutes). However, overall, the estimated respondent burden has decreased because of a significant revision to our expected response rate based on the response rate observed in previous fielding of the survey.
