Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 114 / Wednesday, June 13, 2018 / Notices 27593 

The following methods are proposed: 

Pilot Surveys. Pilot surveys conducted 

under this clearance will generally be 

methodological studies, and will always 

employ statistically representative 

samples. The pilot surveys will replicate 

all components of the methodological 

design, sampling procedures (where 

possible), and questionnaires of the full 

scale survey. Pilot surveys will normally 

be utilized when EIA undertakes a 

complete redesign of a particular data 

collection methodology or when EIA 

undertakes data collection in new 

energy areas, such as HGL production, 

alternative fueled motor vehicles, and 

other emerging areas of the energy 

sector where data collection would 

provide utility to EIA. 

Cognitive Interviews. Cognitive 

interviews are typically one-on-one 

interviews in which the respondent is 

usually asked to ‘‘think aloud’’ or is 

asked ‘‘retrospective questions’’ as he or 

she answers questions, reads survey 

materials, defines terminology, or 

completes other activities as part of a 

typical survey process. A number of 

different techniques may be involved 

including, asking respondents what 

specific words or phrases mean or 

asking respondents probing questions to 

determine how they estimate, calculate, 

or determine specific data elements on 

a survey. The objectives of these 

cognitive interviews are to identify 

problems of ambiguity or 

misunderstanding, examine the process 

that respondents follow for reporting 

information, assess survey respondents’ 

ability to report new information, or 

identify other difficulties respondents 

have answering survey questions in 

order to reduce measurement error from 

estimates based on a survey. 

Respondent Debriefings. Respondent 

debriefings conducted under this 

clearance will generally be 

methodological or cognitive research 

studies. The debriefing form is 

administered after a respondent 

completes a questionnaire either in 

paper format, electronically, or through 

in-person interviews. The debriefings 

contain probing questions to determine 

how respondents interpret the survey 

questions, how much time and effort 

was spent completing the questionnaire, 

and whether they have problems in 

completing the survey/questionnaire. 

Respondent debriefings also are useful 

in determining potential issues with 

data quality and in estimating 

respondent burden. 

Usability Testing. Usability tests are 

similar to cognitive interviews in which 

a respondent is typically asked to ‘‘think 

aloud’’ or asked ‘‘retrospective 

questions’’ as he or she reviews an 

electronic questionnaire, website, visual 

aid, or hard copy survey form. The 

objective of usability testing is to check 

that respondents can easily and 

intuitively navigate electronic survey 

collection programs, websites, and other 

survey instruments to submit their data 

to EIA. 

Focus Groups. Focus groups, in 

person or online, involve group sessions 

guided by a moderator who follows a 

topic guide containing questions or 

subjects focused on a particular issue 

rather than adhering to a standardized 

cognitive interview protocol. Focus 

groups are useful for exploring issues 

concerning the design of a form and the 

meaning of terms from a specific group 

of respondents, data users, or other 

stakeholders of EIA data. 

(5) Annual Estimated Number of 

Respondents: 1,870; 

(6) Annual Estimated Number of 

Total Responses: 1,870; 

(7) Annual Estimated Number of 

Burden Hours: 1,915; 

(8) Annual Estimated Reporting and 

Recordkeeping Cost Burden: There are 

no additional costs associated with 

these survey methods other than the 

burden hours. The information is 

maintained in the normal course of 

business. The annual cost in burden 

hours to the respondents is estimated to 

be $144,946 (1,915 burden hours times 

$75.69 per hour), which represents a 

reduction of 85 burden hours from the 

prior renewal of this collection. 

Therefore, other than the cost of burden 

hours, EIA estimates that there are no 

additional costs for generating, 

maintaining, and providing the 

information. 

Comments are invited on whether or 

not: (a) The proposed collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of agency functions, 

including whether the information will 

have a practical utility; (b) EIA’s 

estimate of the burden of the proposed 

collection of information, including the 

validity of the methodology and 

assumptions used, is accurate; (c) EIA 

can improve the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information it will collect; 

and (d) EIA can minimize the burden of 

the collection of information on 

respondents, such as automated 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology.
