This data collection effort is authorized under the Help America Vote Act (HAVA). Section 202 of HAVA requires EAC to serve as a national clearinghouse and resource for the compilation of information and review of procedures with respect to the administration of Federal elections. Section 202(3) authorizes EAC to conduct studies and to carry out other duties and activities to promote the effective administration of Federal elections. Since 2004, the EAC has issued guidance on various topics to assist State and local election officials in managing and administering elections. This guidance includes a number of management guidelines, best practices, and other related reports.

The Evaluation Contractor will conduct an evaluation of the effectiveness, use, and overall satisfaction with the aforementioned products by State and local election officials. The results of the evaluation will be used internally as a decisionmaking tool to guide the EAC’s determination about future updates and reprints of these work products. The evaluation will include the use of surveys and focus groups. There is one online survey for local election officials and one online survey for State election officials. Each survey is estimated to take 40 minutes to complete. Affected Public (Respondents): State governments, the District of Columbia, Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, Guam, American Samoa, and the United States Virgin Islands, and local entities. Affected Public: State and local government. Number of Respondents: 5,000. Responses per Respondent: 1. Estimated Burden per Response: 40 minutes. Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 2,000 hours. Frequency: One-time data collection. There will be three focus groups held with approximately 10 participants per group. Each focus group meeting is expected to last one and one-half hours. Affected Public: Local government. Number of Respondents: 30. VerDate Nov<24>2008 15:15 Nov 23, 2009 Jkt 220001 Responses per Respondent: 1. Estimated Burden per Response: 1.5 hours.
