The NSDUH (formerly the National
Household Survey on Drug Abuse) is a survey of the civilian,
noninstitutionalized population of the United States, age 12 and
over. The data are used to estimate the prevalence of cigarette,
alcohol and illicit drug use, and abuse of licit drugs. Results are
used by SAMHSA, ONDCP, and other Federal agencies and other
researchers and organizations to establish policy, direct program
activities, and better allocate resources.
Currently there are 83,673
hours in the 2007 OMB inventory. The NSDUH is requesting 85,323
hours for the 2008 NSDUH, which is a program change increase of
1,650 hours from the 2007 NSDUH. The increase in hours is a result
of the addition of the embedded follow-up study.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
