    Need and Use of Information Collection: The National Cancer 
Institute (NCI) currently collects (1) customer service and demographic 
information from clients of the Cancer Information Service (CIS) to 
properly plan, implement, and evaluate cancer education efforts, 
including assessing the extent by which the CIS reaches and impacts 
underserved populations; (2) smoking/tobacco use behavior of 
individuals seeking NCI's smoking cessation assistance through the CIS 
to provide smoking cessation services tailored to the individual 
client's needs and track their smoking behavior at follow up. This is a 
request for OMB to approve a revised submission for an additional three 
years to provide ongoing customer service collection of demographic 
information and collection of brief customer satisfaction questions 
from NCI Cancer Information Service Clients for the purpose of program 
planning and evaluation.

their time. The total estimated annualized burden hours are 6,343.
