The purpose of collections under this
generic clearance is to obtain formative information from
respondents to develop new questions, questionnaires and tools and
to identify problems in instruments currently in use. This
clearance request is limited to formative research activities
emphasizing data collection, toolkit development, and estimation
procedures and reports for internal decision-making and development
purposes and does not extend to the collection of data for public
release or policy formation. It is anticipated that these studies
will rely heavily on qualitative techniques to meet their
objective.
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;

(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);

If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
