proper functions of the BIE; (2) will this information be processed and 
used in a timely manner; (3) is the estimate of burden accurate; (4) 
how might the BIE enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the

burden of this collection on the respondents, including through the use 
of information technology.

While you can ask us in your comment to withhold your personal 
identifying information from public review, we cannot guarantee that we 
will be able to do so.
