The estimated total annual
burden hours increased by 66,088, from 335,090 to 401,178. The
increase is due to an increase of the total number of annual
submissions from 14,856 to 17,048. This increase is primarily
explained by the increase in the number of respondents and an
increase in the number of amendments.
