information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(2) Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of burden including
the validity of the methodology and
assumptions used;
(3) Enhance the quality, utility and
clarity of the information to be

collection of information on those who
