The burden estimate for completion of the data collection instruments has increase from 20 minutes to 30 minutes (+10 minutes) and the number of responses has decreased from 9,750 to 6,000 (-3,750). Therefore the total annual burden hours will decrease by -247 hours. The additional time is requested to include a an additional set of questions to the survey (Sources of Information Section) related to whether and how the respondent has read, seen or heard of information on disaster preparedness, the motivation from those messages and the actions resulting from receipt of that communication. These questions are needed to support an assessment of FEMA's campaign to increase individual preparedness. Another set of questions related to the accuracy of the respondents understanding of appropriate protective actions related to the accuracy of the respondents understanding of appropriate protective actions specific to two hazards, a tornado and an earthquake.
