Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: Yes

Burden Reduction Due to: Miscellaneous Actions

Short Statement: The decrease in the estimated burdens hours is largely due to the use of the NIH-wide generic clearance (0925-0648) currently available for Customer Satisfaction and Customer Feedback. However, the need to maintain this umbrella generic clearance to conduct future information collections that are more substantive in nature is based on having sub-studies ICRs which would not be permissible under the NIH-wide generic “fast-track’ clearance.
