This process is conducted in accordance with 5 CFR 1320.8. CISA’s Methodology in Estimating the Burden for the Chemical-Terrorism Vulnerability Information Authorization Number of Respondents The current information collection estimated that 20,000 respondents submit a request to become a CVI Authorized User Number annually. The table below provides the number of respondents over the past three years (i.e., Fiscal Year (FY) 2017 through FY 2019). FY 2017 Number of Respondents .......................... FY 2018 FY 2019 I 19,392 I 16,504 I 13,667 Due to past fluctuations and uncertainty regarding the number of future respondents, CISA believes that 20,000 continues to be a reasonable estimate. Therefore, CISA proposes to retain the estimated the annual number of respondents. Estimated Time per Respondent In the current information collection, the estimated time per respondent to prepare and submit a CVI Authorization is 0.50 hours (30 minutes). CISA proposes to retain the estimated time per respondent. Annual Burden Hours The annual burden hours for the CVI Authorization is [0.50 hours × 20,000 respondents × 1 response per respondent], which equals 10,000 hours. Total Capital/Startup Burden Cost CISA provides access to CSAT free of charge and assumes that each respondent already has computer hardware and access to the internet for basic business needs. Therefore, there are no annualized capital or start-up costs incurred by chemical facilities of interest or high-risk chemical facilities for this information collection. other individuals may also complete this instrument (e.g., Federal, State, and local government employees and contractors). For the purpose of this notice, CISA maintains this assumption. Therefore, to estimate the total annual burden, CISA multiplied the annual burden of 10,000 hours by the loaded average hourly wage rate of SSOs of $79.75 per hour.6 Therefore, the total annual burden cost for the CVI Authorization instrument is $797,474 [10,000 total annual burden hours × $79.75 per hour].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The CFATS Program identifies and regulates 
the security of high-risk chemical facilities using a risk-based 
approach. Congress initially authorized the CFATS Program under Section 
550 of the Department of Homeland Security Appropriations Act of 2007,

November 20, 2007. See 72 FR 17688 and 72 FR 65396.

    Pursuant to 6 U.S.C. 623, the CFATS regulations establish the 
requirements under 6 CFR 27.400 that covered persons must follow to 
safeguard certain documents and other information developed under the 
regulations from unauthorized disclosure. This information is

CISA's Methodology in Estimating the Burden for the Chemical-Terrorism 
Vulnerability Information Authorization

Number of Respondents

    The current information collection estimated that 20,000 
respondents submit a request to become a CVI Authorized User Number 
annually. The table below provides the number of respondents over the 
past three years (i.e., Fiscal Year (FY) 2017 through FY 2019).

------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                             FY 2017   FY 2018   FY 2019
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Number of Respondents.....................   19,392    16,504    13,667
------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Due to past fluctuations and uncertainty regarding the number of 
future respondents, CISA believes that 20,000 continues to be a 
reasonable estimate. Therefore, CISA proposes to retain the estimated 
the annual number of respondents.

Estimated Time per Respondent

    In the current information collection, the estimated time per 
respondent to prepare and submit a CVI Authorization is 0.50 hours (30 
minutes). CISA proposes to retain the estimated time per respondent.

Annual Burden Hours

    The annual burden hours for the CVI Authorization is [0.50 hours x 
20,000 respondents x 1 response per respondent], which equals 10,000 
hours.

Total Capital/Startup Burden Cost

    CISA provides access to CSAT free of charge and assumes that each 
respondent already has computer hardware and access to the internet for 
basic business needs. Therefore, there are no annualized capital or 
start-up costs incurred by chemical facilities of interest or high-risk 
chemical facilities for this information collection.

Total Recordkeeping Burden

    There are no recordkeeping burden costs incurred by chemical 
facilities of interest or high-risk chemical facilities for this 
information collection.

Total Annual Burden Cost

    CISA assumes that the majority of individuals who will complete 
this instrument are Site Security Officers (SSOs), although a smaller 
number of other individuals may also complete this instrument (e.g., 
Federal, State, and local government employees and contractors). For 
the purpose of this notice, CISA maintains this assumption. Therefore, 
to estimate the total annual burden, CISA multiplied the annual burden 
of 10,000 hours by the loaded average hourly wage rate of SSOs of 
$79.75 per hour.\6\ Therefore, the total annual burden cost for the CVI 
Authorization instrument is $797,474 [10,000 total annual burden hours 
x $79.75 per hour].
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ The wage used for an SSO equals that of Managers, All (11-
9199), with a load factor of 1.43508 to account for benefits in 
addition to wages https://www.bls.gov/oes/2018/may/oes119199.htm. 
The load factor is estimated by dividing total compensation by total 
wages and salaries for the Management, Professional and Related 
series ($60.79/$42.36), which can be found at https://www.bls.gov/news.release/ecec.t04.htm.
