Abstract: FEMA’s Community Preparedness Division would like to renew a currently approved collection to evaluate the state of preparedness nationally. The Community Preparedness Division analyzes the data collected through this telephone survey of the public to identify progress and gaps in citizen and community preparedness and participation. This information is used by the Community Preparedness Division, and Citizen Corps Councils to tailor awareness and recruitment campaigns, messaging and public information efforts, and strategic planning initiatives to more effectively improve the state of citizen preparedness and participation across the country.

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The previously requested total annual response burden for this collection was 1,467 burden hours; the current request is for 3,247 hours. This is due to an increased number of respondents from 4,400 to 9,750 at the same response time, 20 minutes. This increase is due to two things: two regional target cities were added, for a total of 3,000 biannual respondents instead of 2,000 for four cities. Also only 2,400 were sampled as part of the national sample last time. This number has increased to 3,500 and is now stratified by FEMA’s 10 regions at 350 each. Upon last submission this was a sample of 2,400 but has now increased to a stratified sample of 3,500. Therefore, due to the increase in respondents there is a subsequent increase in burden hours.
