Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 51 / Friday, March 15, 2013 / Notices
The sample size for each of the panels
will be 5,000 sample households. We
expect fifty-percent or 7,500 households
to respond by either mail or Internet.
The second part of the test includes
delivering the completed pre-screener
data to the Census Bureau’s
Jeffersonville Contact Center who will
conduct a telephone operation using a
paper questionnaire to verify that the
phone numbers collected from the mail
and Internet pre-screener either reached,
or did not reach, the sample addresses.
This telephone interview will last
approximately 2 minutes.
Upon completion of the telephone
operation, the Census Bureau will
analyze the accuracy of the telephone
numbers collected from the paper and
the Internet pre-screeners to determine
if either of these methods could benefit
the 2016 FHWAR. If either mode
improves our success in obtaining
accurate telephone numbers for sample
households, we may improve contact
and response rates and reduce the costs
for conducting the 2016 FHWAR. A
mail pre-screener operation is less
expensive than the telephone research
operation we conducted for the 2011
FHWAR, and we could potentially
conduct more interviews in CATI with
accurate phone numbers provided by
household members
Additionally, use of a pre-screener
will identify households that do not
participate in wildlife-related activities
more efficiently than the existing data
collection methodology which requires
a longer screener interview. This results
in lower interviewing costs and reduced
respondent burden.

II. Method of Collection
Part one of the test will be a mail
operation with one panel receiving a
paper questionnaire. The second panel
will receive an Internet invite to
complete the pre-screener by Internet.
The third panel will have the option of
conducting the pre-screener by paper or
Internet. This operation will take about
four weeks to conduct.
Part two of the test will be a telephone
operation with data collected by paper
questionnaire. This operation will take
about 3 weeks.

Mission Description
The United States Department of
Commerce, International Trade
Administration, U.S. and Foreign
Commercial Service (CS), is organizing
an Energy and Environment Trade
Mission to Malaysia, Thailand, and the
Philippines. This Mission will directly
support the ‘‘U.S.-ASEAN Expanded
Economic Engagement’’ or E3 Initiative
announced by President Obama at the
2012 U.S.-ASEAN Summit.
The ‘‘E3’’ Initiative focuses on
enhancing ASEAN members’ capacity
for advancing issues that will open up
trade and opportunities for U.S.
companies and among ASEAN member
states in the region. The E–3 Initiative
is a new framework for economic
cooperation designed to expand trade
and investment ties between the United
States and ASEAN, creating new
business opportunities and jobs in all
eleven countries. The E3 Initiative
builds upon the U.S.-Asia Pacific
Comprehensive Energy Partnership
designed to expand energy and
environmental cooperation to advance
efforts to ensure affordable, secure, and
cleaner energy.
To support these efforts, the mission
will expose U.S. companies to
promising market potentials in Energy
and Environmental Technologies
markets in Malaysia, Thailand, and the
Philippines. Led by a senior Commerce
Department official, during the week of
September 15, the mission will include
representatives from a cross-section of
U.S. firms operating in energy and
environmental technologies.
