5 USC 8101 et seq. Name of Law: Augmented Compensation for
Dependents
The adjustment in the burden
hours is due to having a better accountability of tracking receipt
of responses via a computer data base. The previous number of
annual respondents of 1880, is being reduced to 1358, which
represents a reduction of 522 respondents. The approved number of
hours is 1077 and the requested number is 870, a decrease of 207.
Due to an increase in postage from $0.42 to $0.47, maintenance and
reporting costs increased from the approved amount of $452, to
$638, which represents an increase of $186.00.
