DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES
Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration
Agency Information Collection Activities: Proposed Collection;
Comment Request
In compliance with section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 concerning opportunity for public comment on proposed
collections of information, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health
Services Administration (SAMHSA) will publish periodic summaries of
proposed projects. To request more information on the proposed projects
or to obtain a copy of the information collection plans, call the
SAMHSA Reports Clearance Officer on (240) 276-0361.
Comments are invited on: (a) whether the proposed collections of
information are necessary for the proper performance of the functions
of the agency, including whether the information shall have practical
utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information; (c) ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) ways
to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents,
including through the use of automated collection techniques or other
forms of information technology.
Proposed Project: SAMHSA's Publications and Digital Products Website
Registration Survey (OMB No. 0930-0313)--Revision
The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration
(SAMHSA) is requesting OMB approval for a revision of SAMHSA's
Publications and Digital Products website Registration Survey (OMB No.
0930-0313). SAMHSA is authorized under section 501(d)(16) of the Public
Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 290aa(d)(16)) to develop and distribute
materials for the prevention, treatment, and recovery from mental and
substance use disorders. To improve customer service and lessen the
burden on the public to locate and obtain these materials, SAMHSA has
developed a website that includes more than 500 free publications from
SAMHSA and its component Agencies. These products are available to the
public for ordering and download. When a member of the public chooses
to order hard-copy publications, it is necessary for SAMHSA to collect
certain customer information in order to fulfill the request. To
further lessen the burden on the public and provide the level of
customer service that the public has come to expect from product
websites, SAMHSA has developed a voluntary registration process for its
publication website that allows customers to create
[[Page 68184]]
accounts. Through these accounts, SAMHSA customers are able to access
their order histories and save their shipping addresses. During the
website registration process, SAMHSA will also ask customers to provide
optional demographic information that helps SAMHSA to evaluate the use
and distribution of its publications and improve services to the
public.
SAMHSA is employing a web-based form for information collection to
avoid duplication and unnecessary burden on customers who register for
an account. Customer information is submitted electronically via web
forms on the <a href="http://samhsa.gov">samhsa.gov</a> domain. Customers can submit the web forms at
their leisure, or call SAMHSA's toll-free Call Center and an
information specialist will submit the forms on their behalf. The
electronic collection of information reduces the burden on the
respondent and streamlines the data-capturing process. The following
revisions were made to the SAMHSA Publications and Digital Products
website Registration Survey:
<bullet> Revision of the SAMHSA Publications website Registration
Survey Questions.
<bullet> Addition of a SAMHSA Main Site Survey version.
<bullet> Addition of a SAMHSA Store Survey version.
SAMHSA estimates the burden of this information collection as
follows:
