This revision removes the workplan, public report, and implementation review reporting requirements. It also the amends the number of respondents for the semi-annual and budget reports to reflect the current number of active grantees. Updates to reporting metrics for the SBM Individual Market (formerly known as Weekly and Monthly Periodic) reports results in a net decrease of 192 metrics. The changes to the Quarterly Periodic reports results in a net decrease of 332 metrics. The addition of the SBM three-year budget report adds 272 hours to this package. Thus, there is a total net reduction of 18,403 hours.
