Burden Reduction Due to: Miscellaneous Actions

Short Statement: (1)The current OMB inventory is 47,021 burden hours for this collection of information. This submission requests 62,963 burden hours. This represents: (a) a program decrease of 1 hour. This submittal removes an IC requirement that was inadvertently included in this collection. The requirement pertains to the Pacific Region's Emergency Action Plans that are submitted to local air quality agencies. This requirement is now included in the IC for 30 CFR 550, subpart C (§ 550.304); and (b) an adjustment increase of 15,942 hours. The program increase is due to re-estimating the average annual responses and the amount of time required to respond based on consultations. (2) The current OMB non-hour cost burden inventory is $482,309. This submission requests $343,794. This represents an adjustment decrease of $138,515. The decrease is due to re-estimating the average number of annual responses multiplied by the associated non-hour cost burden.
