Terms of Clearance: This collection is approved consistent with the responses provided electronically by SAMHSA on 12/5/03 and the conference call with OMB on 12/11/03. SAMHSA is commended for the revised evaluation design with reduced burden, and will implement this design using the incentives for OTPs as specified for one visit in the ICR.

As SAMHSA noted in its responses, results obtained from the OTP sample will be used only to inform the quality of information provided on the OTP questionnaire, not to make direct population estimates.
