This form is
disapproved because the data is currently being collected by a
private company. Moreover, the information provided by the
Department did not indicate a compelling need for the collection of
information that could not be served by data from other sources.
Accordingly, the proposed collection of information would have not
only collected information already available to the Department but
would therefore also have imposed an unnecessary burden on the
public, incurred unnecessary costs to the Department, and would not
have any practical utility that could not otherwise be served.
