Background and Brief Description

    Executive Order 12862 directs Federal agencies that provide 
services directly to the public to survey customers to determine the 
kind and quality of services they need and their level of satisfaction 
with existing services.
    CDC releases a number of new products each year to its customers, a 
diverse group that includes health care providers, researchers, public 
health practitioners, policy makers, and the general public. The term 
product is broadly defined to include publications, Web pages, 
podcasts, e-cards, CD-ROMs, and videos. At present, there is no 
mechanism for evaluating whether these products are meeting customer 
needs.
    CDC is requesting a 3-year generic clearance in order to better 
evaluate its products. Obtaining feedback from customers on a regular, 
on-going basis will help ensure that customers find CDC products to be 
useful. This type of evaluation will allow CDC to maximize the impact 
of its products which will ultimately benefit the public's health. The 
estimate of annual burden was based on approximately 20 new products 
being released by CDC/NCIPC each year. This number is consistent with 
the number of products released annually over the last 5 years. 
Approximately 2500 hard copies of each product are distributed to 
customers annually. Each product is disseminated electronically (via e-
mail) to 3000 customers each year. Finally, product Web sites receive 
approximately 1800 hits a month or 21,600 hits a year.
    There is no cost to the respondents other than their time. The 
total estimated burden hours are 90,333.
