To support the development of public outreach and education efforts that will improve the emergency preparedness, FEMA's Chemical Stockpile Emergency Preparedness Program (CSEPP) will collect data from the citizens living in the Immediate Response Zones (IRZ) and Protective Action Zones (PAZ) surrounding stockpile sites. Program managers use survey data findings to evaluate public awareness of protective actions at CSEPP sites, and identify outreach weaknesses and strengths to develop effective outreach and education campaigns. Results from this information collection are shared with State, local, Tribal, and other FEMA officials for subsequent action plans addressing program-wide and stockpile site-specific issues. Results are also shared with other Federal agencies that lend expertise in specific areas of the program.

FEMA Form 008-0-7 will continue to be used. This form is the telephone survey questionnaire for the CSEPP site in Kentucky and the current estimated annual cost burden is $4,272.90, resulting in an increase (program change) of $136.18. The increase in cost burden results from an increase in annual responses due to increased population in the EPZ of the Kentucky site and increased wage rates in Kentucky.
FEMA Form 008-0-8 will no longer be used by the program office, resulting in decrease (adjustment) of $4,261.08. Reasons for the adjustments include the fact that as the demilitarization of chemical weapons progresses some CSEPP sites have completed program closeout and anticipate no need for future surveys.
FEMA Form 008-0-3 will continue to be used. This form is the telephone survey questionnaire for the CSEPP site in Colorado and the current estimated annual cost burden is $4,707.98, resulting in an increase (program change) of $208.62. The increase in cost burden results from an increase in annual responses due to increased population in the EPZ at the Colorado site and increased wage rates in Colorado.

The current estimated annual cost burden is $1,621.94, resulting in an increase (program change) of $31.95. In spite of a decrease in annual responses, the increase in cost burden results from an increase in wage rates in Colorado.

This form is the telephone survey questionnaire for the businesses near the CSEPP site in Colorado and the current estimated annual cost burden is $924.07, resulting in an increase (program change) of $66.00.
