(i.) Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have practical utility;

methodology and assumptions used;
(iii.) How to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected;
(iv.) How to minimize the burden of the collection of information
on those who are to respond including the use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology, e.g. permitting electronic
submission of responses.
