# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

                    The Stafford Act, Title VI, Emergency Preparedness identifies the purpose of emergency preparedness for the protection of life and property in the United States from hazards. 42 U.S.C. 5195. It directs that the Federal Government provide necessary direction, coordination, and guidance as authorized for a comprehensive emergency preparedness system for all hazards.                     *Id.*                     The definition of emergency preparedness includes all activities and measures designed or undertaken to prepare or minimize the effects of a hazard upon the civilian population. 42 U.S.C. 5195a(3). The conduct of research is among the measures to be undertaken in preparation for hazards.                     *See Id.*

                    This proposed information collection previously published in the                     **Federal Register**                     on October 13, 2021, at 86 FR 56976 with a 60 day public comment period. One public comment was received, but is not germane to this collection. The purpose of this notice is to notify the public that FEMA will submit the information collection abstracted below to the Office of Management and Budget for review and clearance.                

## Collection of Information

*Title:*                     Post Disaster Survivor Preparedness Research Survey.                

*Type of Information Collection:*                     Revision of a currently approved information collection.                

*OMB Number:*                     1660-0146.                

*FEMA Forms:*                     FEMA Form FF-008-FY-21-112 (formerly FEMA Form 519-0-54), Post Disaster Survivor Preparedness Research: Instruments.                

*Abstract:*                     The economic and human toll of major disasters in the United States is increasing and historically underserved communities are disproportionately impacted. Poverty, race, limited English proficiency, age, and other demographic, cultural, and socio-economic variables can significantly inhibit people's ability to take steps to prepare. To reverse this trend, emergency managers must ensure historically undeserved communities receive critical information that helps each person take steps to prepare themselves, their families, and their communities. To achieve equity in opportunities to prepare for disasters, FEMA proposes a series of qualitative focus groups, cognitive interviews, and targeted surveys to better understand individual experiences within historically underserved communities during recent disasters. FEMA Form FF-008-FY-21-112 (formerly FEMA Form 519-0-54) is a combined instrument that contains the script and question bank for conducting the focus groups, cognitive interviews, and surveys.                

*Affected Public:*                     Individuals or households.                

*Estimated Number of Respondents:*                     3,120 respondents.                

*Estimated Number of Responses:*                     3,120 responses.                

*Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours:*                     650.                

*Estimated Total Annual Respondent Cost:*                     $25,513.                

*Estimated Respondents' Operation and Maintenance Costs:*                     $0.00.                

*Estimated Respondents' Capital and Start-Up Costs:*                     $0.00.                

*Estimated Total Annual Cost to the Federal Government:*                     $188,267.
