statute, rule, order, or other law administered by the Commission, or

as shown in the following table:

    \1\ Burden is defined as the total time, effort, or financial 
resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or 
disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. For 
further explanation of what is included in the information 
collection burden, refer to 5 CFR 1320 (2025)
    \2\ The Commission staff thinks that the average respondent for 
this collection is similarly situated to the Commission, in terms of 
salary plus benefits. Based upon the Commission's 2025 average cost 
for salary plus benefits, the average hourly cost is $103/hour.
