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

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The Commission received OMB approval for an extension on 8/1/13. However, the change in burden was not made in ROCIS even though it was thoroughly explained in the supporting statement that was submitted to OMB. Therefore, we are increasing the number of responses to 98,304 and a decrease in the total burden hours by 451 hours. This adjustment is because over time requests for location information would have already been made at most buildings.
