Operating and maintenance (O&M) costs include file storage, photocopying, and storage, and postage. They also include the general upkeep of start-up capital equipment, as well as any purchase of services such as contractor or auditing services. O&M costs are estimated at $3,032 for the accelerated phaseout rule for ODS. The burden hours and costs are as follows: (a) Respondent’s annual burden hours, $6,876; (b) Respondent’s annual labor costs, $536,328; (c) Respondent’s capital/start-up costs (ICR renewal notice), $0; (d) Respondent’s O&M costs, $3,032; (e) Agency’s annual burden hours, $2,159; (f) Agency’s annual labor costs, $102,125. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; adjust the existing ways to comply with any VerDate jul<14>2003 20:14 Jun 13, 2005 Jkt 205001 previously applicable instructions and requirements; train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete and review the collection of information; and transmit or otherwise disclose the information.
