National Park Service Office of Heritage Partnerships Program Customer Satisfaction Survey
Purpose
The National Park Service is about more than just parks, we provide technical assistance to partners and communities through our congressionally-mandated
preservation programs. The Heritage Partnerships Program (HPP) of the NPS Intermountain Region helps community groups, local, state and federal agencies,
tribal governments, nonprofits, and individuals to identify, recognize and preserve nationally significant historic places and sites within the region that reflect our
nation’s diverse heritage for the education and inspiration of future generations. . The HPP is responsible for administering several nationally recognized
preservation programs in the states of Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, Montana, Oklahoma, Texas, Utah, and Wyoming. HPP’s suite of programs includes the
following congressionally authorized programs:
• Japanese American Confinement Sites (JACS) Grant Program,
• National Historic Landmarks (NHL)
• Historic American Building Survey (HABS),
• Historic American Engineering Record (HAER),
• Historic American Landscapes Survey (HALS),
• National Heritage Areas (NHA) and the
• Historic Surplus Property Program
The HPP provides technical assistance that spans the preparation of National Historic Landmark nominations, direct assistance and resources to NHL site
stewards, review of historic documentation, conducting archeological surveys, treatment plans for stabilization/repair of historic properties, partnerships with
National Heritage Areas, and planning and education. This assistance is provided to help ensure compliance with federal historic preservation laws, regulations
and guidelines.
Our HPP strategic plan identified customer service as an area of opportunity to improve services. To that end, data is needed to measure the levels of customer
satisfaction to identify opportunities for improvement. A periodic survey will be used to collect information from stewards and partners participating in the program.

Federal Cost: (Consult your Bureau/Office Information Collection Clearance Officer for assistance, if necessary)
The estimated annual cost to the Federal government is $ 8,796.00

, based on: (provide details below)

NPS Staff GS-7/5 $36.65 x 240 hours = $8,796

Sample Response to Federal Cost Question:
“If we receive 20 submissions and it takes 30 minutes to process and implement each one, then the total burden is $322.40
assuming a GS-7 step 5 is processing the submissions. Please note, however, that this custom form is a tool meant to accept
submissions in a standard format rather than through the freeform submissions that would otherwise come in by personal email.
Thus the existence of this form actually saves the government money by standardizing submissions and decreasing the workload of
processing each one.”

If you are conducting a focus group, survey, or plan to employ statistical methods, please provide answers to the
following questions:
Selection of Targeted Respondents
1. Do you have a customer list (or something similar) that defines the universe of potential respondents and do you have a
sampling plan for selecting from this universe?
No
Yes If “Yes,” please provide a description of both below (or attach the sampling plan). If the answer is no, please
provide a description of how you plan to identify your potential group of respondents and how you will select them.

This will be a systematic convenient sample of all known participants in Intermountain Region HPP. The contact list of
all of the stewards and partners in the program will be used to collect information for this survey. All contacts will
receive a survey with instructions to complete and return. Known and confirmed email addresses will be used to
administer the questionnaire via Survey Monkey™. The survey software will be used to manage, send reminder notices
and analyze the results. When electronic access is not an option, the questionnaire will be administered in using the
method most convenient for the contact (e.g., telephone, or by mail).The results will be compiled and used in various
initiatives and reports describing the progress of the program.
Sample Response to Question 1 Above:
“Participants will self-select by choosing to follow the link to submit a resource. This is really no different than any website’s “Contact
Us” type of link; this submission form is only used by those who want to contribute to the toolkit. The “Submit a resource” link will be
located on the bottom of the toolkit homepage.”
Administration of the Instrument:
