 SUMMARY: Under the provisions of Section 3507(a)(1)(D) of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM), the National Institutes of Health (NIH), will submit to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request for review and approval of the information collection listed below. A notice of this proposed information collection was previously published in the 
                        **Federal Register**
                         on June 26, 2009 (Volume 74, Number 122, page 30577). To date, no public comments have been received. The purpose of this notice is to announce a final 30 days for public comment. NIH may not conduct or sponsor, and the respondent is not required to respond to, an information collection that has been extended, revised, or implemented on or after October 1, 1995, unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. Proposed Collection *Title:*
                         NCCAM Customer Service Data Collection. *Type of Information Collection Request:*
                         Revision. *Need and Use of Information Collection:*
                         NCCAM provides the public, patients, families, health care providers, complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) practitioners, and others with the latest scientifically based information on CAM and information about NCCAM's programs through a variety of channels, including its toll-free telephone information service. NCCAM wishes to continue to measure customer satisfaction with NCCAM telephone interactions and to assess which audiences are being reached through these channels. This effort involves a telephone survey consisting of 10 questions, which 25 percent of all callers are asked to answer, for an annual total of approximately 983 respondents. NCCAM uses the data collected from the survey to help program staff measure the impact of their communication efforts, tailor services to the public and health care providers, measure service use among special populations, and assess the most effective media and messages to reach these audiences. *Frequency of Response:*
                         Once. *Affected Public:*
                         Individuals and households. *Type of Respondents:*
                         Patients, spouses/family/friends of patients, health care providers, physicians, CAM practitioners, or other individuals contacting the NCCAM Clearinghouse. *The annual reporting burden is as follows:*( print page 45863) A.12-1—Estimates of Hour Burden
