Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory Section 1414(c)(3)(A) of SDWA. Estimated number of respondents: 55 (total). Frequency of response: Annually. Total estimated burden: 4,400 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b). Total estimated cost: $530,000 (per year), includes $0 annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs. Changes in estimates: There is no change of hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB. This is due to two considerations. First, the regulations have not changed over the past three years and are not anticipated to change over the next three years. Second, the growth rate for this industry is very low or non-existent, so there is no significant change in the overall burden. Since there are no changes in the regulatory requirements and there is no significant industry growth, there are also no changes in the capital/startup or operation and maintenance (O&M) costs.
