Short Statement: The National Cancer Institute, Cancer Information Service, is requesting clearance of the proposed data collection for the following reasons: 1. NCI has extended the end date of the contract under which the process evaluation is being performed from September 28, 2006, to March 28, 2007, in order to allow sufficient time for the OMB approval process, data collection, and analysis and reporting to be carried out pursuant to the design developed in the first six months of the contract. If Emergency Clearance is granted by October 31, 2007, this will allow the necessary minimum period of two to three months to collect the survey data and two months to produce the draft and final reports. Allowing less than this minimum time could jeopardize the completeness of the data and reduce the level of detail and comprehensiveness of the report. 2. NCI is planning to launch the first federal-level promotional campaign related to the National Network of Tobacco Cessation Quitlines in the fourth calendar quarter of 2006. While the process evaluation data collection is independent of this campaign, and is concerned with situations and events that have already occurred, there is some potential for the ongoing activities and effects of the year-long campaign to obscure or distort the focus of the various stakeholder respondents who will be responding about historical events. It is desirable to minimize as much as possible any overlap between the campaign and the process data collection. 3. In May of 2006, NCI and CDC conducted a set of regional meetings with state tobacco control managers and quitline administrators from all 51 states, meetings attended also by representatives of quitline service providers and the North American Quitline Consortium. These attendees constituted a high percentage of the actual respondents for the proposed data collection or were representatives of the respondents' organizations. NCI and CDC presented to this audience the plans for the process evaluation and its survey component; the agencies specifically utilized the opportunity to promote the value of the evaluation to these stakeholders, to explain the importance of their role in it, and to encourage them individually and organizationally to cooperate with the data collection. The agencies also informed the attendees that the surveys would occur in the end of 2006. It is desirable to adhere to this commitment and also to maintain the momentum generated by these meetings by conducting the surveys as soon as possible.
