This submission reflects
changes that only minimally reduce the burden hours to incorporate
electronic submission instead of the more timely and cumbersome
paper submission process. There is also only minimal change
(anticipated decrease) in the submission process for reporting
requirements given that electronic submission is required and the
number of submission pages has decreased. The Private Enforcement
Initiative requires completion and submission of an enforcement
log. The enforcement log is a part of the narrative reporting. In
addition, to capture data on enforcement activity outside of the
Enforcement Log, the Department modified 3 forms A.(Types of
Closures), B (Bases and Issues in Tests) and C (Bases and Issues of
Reports of Discrimination).
