NCI's Cancer Information Service will
collect demographic and smoking information from a sample of
telephone and online clients. There will be 49,400 respondents
annually for a total of 1823 burden hours.
Since our last submission in
2003, OMB has requested that the Average Time per Response be
rounded up to intervals of one minute each. Thus, even though our
estimated number of respondents has been reduced since the last
submission and the actual time it takes to answer each of the
questions has not changed, the rounding convention has resulted in
an increased estimate of burden hours per respondent and overall
annual burden (from 1,951 in 2003 to 2,616 for these same set of
questions in this request for increase). However, the true burden
to respondents has actually been reduced from 2003 to this request
in 2006.
