    Abstract: Under the Government Performance and Results 
Modernization Act of 2010, ATF must update its strategic plan every 
four years and identify key external factors that could significantly 
affect their ability to achieve strategic goals and objectives. For 
this purpose, ATF conducts outreach for feedback from ATF stakeholders 
as part of the Bureau's quadrennial assessment process. Information 
Collection (IC) OMB 1140-0052 is being revised to include the monetized 
value of respondent time in this renewal (from $0 to $535), which was 
not previously included. There has also been a decrease in the number 
of respondents over time, from 1,500 to 47 and a reduction in the 
collective hour burden from 450 hours to 2 hours.
