Burden Increase Due to:

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The change in burden is a PROGRAM CHANGE due to a Coast Guard rulemaking [USCG-2005-21869]. The rulemaking will— • Expand the NOA requirements to more vessels. • Require a NOD. • Require electronic submission of the NOAs & NODs. Additionally, the change in burden is a PROGRAM CHANGE due to a Coast Guard rulemaking [USCG-2008-1088]. The rulemaking will— • Expand the NOA requirement to vessels that engage in OCS activities. Additionally, the Coast Guard estimates that there will be no change in burden due to rulemaking [USCG-2008-1070]. For this collection, we propose to add one data element, the VRP control number, to the currently required 40 data elements for the notice of arrival. The VRP control number is a ‘‘static’’ data element issued once every 5 years or longer, while some of the 40 other data elements change with each voyage (such as last port of call, cargo, or crew list). Therefore, we believe the 300-minute burden currently approved for this collection more than adequately covers the post rulemaking 41 data elements and the burden of response should remain unchanged. Additionally, the change in burden is a PROGRAM CHANGE due to a Coast Guard rulemaking [USCG-2004-19963]. The rulemaking will— • Reduce the number of NOA submitted due to a change the definition for CDC residue. The change is necessary to reduce the burden on shippers of certain CDC cargoes.
