Burden Increase Due to:

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The new request decreases burden hours by 33.8. This reflects minor adjustments. The program is now mature and startup costs included in the prior ICR have largely already been incurred, except for one new expected entrant. Similarly, at least half of the certification applications are expected to be carry-overs. No warranty violation report have been received, so warranty report applications are expected to be less time consuming. The number of manufacturers is reduced from ten to eight. These reductions are partially offset by an increase from two to five in the number of applications per year covered by this authorization, to provide a margin of error for fluctuations in the small number of manufacturers and certifications in this industry.
