Short Statement: This is a revision of a currently approved information collection as a result of program changes.The reason for the revision is that the research team has concluded study enrollment, the 12-month follow-up survey, and all three rounds of site visits. The burden hours for these data collection activities were removed from the burden estimates. During this renewal process we discovered the burden hours and total responses identified and approved in ROCIS are incorrect which indicates 41,764 burden hours and 162,082 responses; the approved supporting statement correctly displayed the requested burden hours and total responses indicated above. This request will reflect program adjustments in ROCIS for an additional 8,202 burden hours and 155,026.
