Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 144 / Friday, July 25, 2008 / Notices this collection of information is estimated to average 33 hours per respondent. 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 previously applicable instructions and requirements which have subsequently changed; 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. Respondents/Affected Entities: Manufacturers and importers of architectural coatings. Estimated Number of Respondents: 500. Frequency of Response: On occasion. Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 16,641 hours. Estimated Total Annual Cost: $1,224,507. This includes $1,224,507 in labor costs and no capital or O&M costs. Changes in Estimates: There is a reduction of 6,120 hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with that identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR Burdens. This reduction is a result of revised estimates of number of exceedance fee reports and tonnage exemption reports to be submitted. These revised estimates were updated based on actual reports received in 2007 and 2008 in accordance with OMB’s terms of clearance when the existing ICR was previously renewed in 2005. The estimated total annual costs decrease by $375,200 as a result. ACTION: Notice of Availability.
