National Highway Traffic Safety Administration

    Title: Five State Survey of Alcohol Targets of Opportunity.
    OMB Number: 2127-New.
    Type of Request: New information collection.
    Abstract: The prevention of alcohol-impaired driving is one of 
NHTSA's top priorities in reducing deaths and injuries from motor-
vehicle crashes. The Partners in Progress goal is to reduce the number 
of alcohol related fatalities from 15,935, in 1998 to 11,000 by the 
year 2005. In support of this goal, five states were awarded 
cooperative agreements by NHTSA to demonstrate and evaluate the 
effectiveness of traffic safety programs that combine increased law 
enforcement efforts with substantial publicity about these programs. 
These states were selected because of their potential for reducing the 
substantial number of percentage of alcohol related fatalities 
occurring each year within their state.
    Affected Public: Those individuals and law enforcement officials 
from the five states evaluated to reducing driving after drinking.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 2,499 hours.
    Comments are invited on: Whether the proposed collection of 
information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of 
the Department, including whether the information will have practical 
utility; the accuracy of the Departments estimate of the burden of the 
proposed information collection; ways to enhance the quality, utility 
and clarity of the information to be collected; and ways to minimize 
the burden of the collection of information on respondents, including 
the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of 
information technology. A Comment to OMB is most effective if OMB 
receives it within 30 days of publication.

    Issued in Washington, D.C., on April 4, 2000.

Associate Administrator for Administration.
