Short Statement: In this revision, the Department proposes to add a new collection instrument (WD-10A) and revise the current information collection instrument (WD-10) on a new electronic platform. Changes to the burden worksheet occur because there is an additional instrument that respondents will complete. As a result, the number of respondents will increase by 910, with an equal number of responses, totaling an hour burden increase of 152 hours.
