SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Election Administration and 
Voting Survey (EAVS) Section B Data Standard (ESB Data Standard); OMB 
Control Number 0704-0597.
    Needs and Uses: To help better assist UOCAVA voters, FVAP and the 
Council of State Governments worked to refine a transformative new data 
schema called the Election Administration and Voting Survey (EAVS) 
Section B (ESB) Data Standard. The ESB Data Standard builds on other 
data standardization efforts and allows FVAP to analyze the three key 
parts of the voting process: (1) Ballot request, (2) ballot 
transmission, and (3) ballot return. With this transactional-level 
data, FVAP will be able to analyze the voters experience from start to 
finish, identifying drivers for success, and uncovering any areas 
within the UOCAVA voting process which could be improved upon.
    Affected Public: State, local, and tribal governments.
