Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 182 / Thursday, September 23, 2021 / Notices 52919 

collaborations with tribal governments 

(as described above); 

Section 2D: The amount that each 

state invests on the prevention of 

underage drinking in the categories 

specified in the STOP Act (see 

description of Category #4 above) and 

descriptions of any dedicated fees, 

taxes, or fines used to raise these funds. 

The number of questions in each 

section is as follows: 

Section 1: 38 questions 

Section 2A: 15 questions 

Section 2B: 12 questions 

Section 2C: 10 questions 

Section 2D: 10 questions 

Total: 85 questions 

Note that the number of questions in 

Section 2A is an estimate. This section 

asks states to identify up to ten 

programs that are specific to underage 

drinking prevention. For each program 

identified, there are three follow-up 

questions. Based on the average number 

of programs per state reported in the 

State Survey’s ten-year history, it is 

anticipated that states will report an 

average of five programs for a total of 15 

questions. 

It is anticipated that most respondents 

will actually respond to only a subset of 

this total. The State Survey is designed 

with ‘‘skip logic,’’ which means that 

many questions will only be directed to 

a subset of respondents who report the 

existence of particular programs or 

activities. 

No changes in content are proposed 

for the current version of the Survey. 

Note that the title of the survey has been 

modified from ‘‘Survey of State 

Underage Drinking Prevention Policies 

and Practices’’ to ‘‘Survey of State 

Underage Drinking Prevention Policies, 

Programs, and Practices’’ to better 

reflect the subjects addressed by the 

State Survey questions. 

To ensure that the State Survey 

obtains the necessary data while 

minimizing the burden on the states, 

SAMHSA has conducted a lengthy and 

comprehensive planning process. It 

sought advice from key stakeholders (as 

mandated by the STOP Act) including 

hosting multiple stakeholders’ meetings, 

conducting two field tests with state 

officials likely to be responsible for 

completing the State Survey, and 

investigating and testing various State 

Survey formats, online delivery systems, 

and data collection methodologies. 

Based on these investigations, 

SAMHSA collects the required data 

using an online survey data collection 

platform (SurveyMonkey). Links to the 

four sections of the survey are 

distributed to states via email. The State 

Survey is sent to each state governor’s 

office and the Office of the Mayor of the 

District of Columbia. Based on the 

experience from the last ten years of 

administering the State Survey, it is 

anticipated that the state governors will 

designate staff from state agencies that 

have access to the requested data 

(typically state Alcohol Beverage 

Control [ABC] agencies and state 

Substance Abuse Program agencies). 

SAMHSA provides both telephone and 

electronic technical support to state 

agency staff and emphasizes that the 

states are expected to provide data from 

existing state databases and other data 

sources available to them. The burden 

estimate below takes into account these 

assumptions. 

The estimated annual response 

burden to collect this information is as 

follows:
