This is a revision to OMB No.
0925-0585 that was submitted for review in 2008. That package is
set to expire in February 2011. The number of burden hours
requested with the original submission was 3,248. This revision
requests a total of 4,380 burden hours. Changes in burden for each
of the tasks are explained below. Individual In-Depth Interviews:
Burden hours have been reduced from 413 to 272. This change
reflects an overall decrease in the number of interviews conducted
in a standard interview study for the project. Focus Group
Interviews: Burden hours increased from 1,407 to 1,728. This change
references an increase in number of focus groups from approximately
thirty focus groups per clearance year to thirty two focus groups
per clearance year. Intercept Interviews/Surveys: Burden hours were
increased from 325 to 1125. This task has been expanded to include
online intercept surveys that test electronic materials. Website
Surveys and Self-Administered Questionnaires have been combined:
Burden hours for these tasks have increased from 325 to 375. This
change reflects an increase in time per response for website
surveys. Gatekeeper Reviews: Burden hours decreased from 75 to
37.5. This change reflects a decrease in hours per response from
0.5 hours to 0.25 hours. Self-Administered Customer Satisfaction
Surveys of Meetings and Conference Sessions: Burden hours for this
task have increased from 322 to 483. This task was added to the OMB
package during the second year of the clearance with an assumption
of 805 surveys per year. The revised package reflects 805 surveys
per clearance year. Self-Administered: Customer Satisfaction
Surveys of Materials and Services: Burden hours for this task have
increased from 25 to 37.5. This task was added to the OMB package
during the second year of the clearance with an assumption of 50
surveys per year. The revised package reflects 50 surveys per
clearance year. Self-Administered Customer Satisfaction Pop-up
Surveys: Burden hours for this task have increased from 16 to 72.
This increase will allow for up to three pop-up surveys per
clearance year instead of two for all three clearance years.
Telephone Surveys: Burden hours for this task have been decreased
from 340 to 250. This change reflects an increase of survey length
from 10 minutes to 15 minutes with half as many participants.
