The change in the number of responses and respondents under this ICR (a total of 29,794 burden hours for 14,359 responses annually for 27 reporting organizations, as noted in Item 12) are due to an adjustment in agency estimates. Namely, DOE has updated the number of respondents and respondents using data from the 2023 Beryllium-Associated Worker Registry, and updated wages to 2024.
There are no changes in the ICR due to program changes due to agency discretion, since no new requirements have been added.
