Project: Voluntary Customer Satisfaction Surveys To Implement Executive 
Order 12862 in the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services 
Administration (SAMHSA)--(OMB No. 0930-0197)--Extension

    SAMHSA provides significant services directly to the public, 
including treatment providers and State substance abuse and mental 
health agencies, through a range of mechanisms, including publications, 
training, meetings, technical assistance and websites. Many of these 
services are focused on information dissemination activities. The 
purpose of this submission is to extend the existing generic approval 
for such surveys.
    The primary use for information gathered is to identify strengths 
and

weaknesses in current service provisions by SAMHSA and to make 
improvements that are practical and feasible. Several of the customer 
satisfaction surveys expected to be implemented under this approval 
will provide data for measurement of program effectiveness under the 
Government Performance and Results Act. Information from these customer 
surveys will be used to plan and redirect resources and efforts to 
improve or maintain a high quality of service to health care providers 
and members of the public. Focus groups may be used to develop the 
survey questionnaire in some instances.
    The estimated annual hour burden is as follows:
