Dear Partners,

	The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is soliciting feedback
from Partners on their experiences and suggestions under the Schools
Chemical Cleanout Campaign (SC3).  On an annual basis, we will ask
Partners to complete the enclosed survey and return it to us.  The
survey helps us learn about your accomplishments and the impacts being
made in schools.  It also helps us identify needs and concerns that you
have and how best to address them.  Finally, it helps us determine the
future direction of the Program.

The survey is organized as follows:

Part 1 asks for general information about your company (e.g., how you
became aware of the SC3 Program).

Part 2 asks for information on the services and resources that your
company has provided to schools (e.g., support on chemical inventories,
etc.).

Part 3 asks for lessons learned under the Program (e.g., your successes
and barriers to success) that can be shared with others.  Part 3 also
asks about your future involvement under the Program.

Worksheets are attached at the end of the survey to help you provide
some responses. 

Each question in the survey includes brief instructions on how to
provide a response.  Please enter your responses electronically into the
spaces provided on the survey.  If additional space is needed, please
attach additional pages.  We also would welcome any of your work
products that can be shared with others at the SC3 web pages (e.g.,
training materials that you developed).  Finally, if you completed a SC3
Survey last year, please use that version to respond to this year’s
survey.  Please update it for the past 12 months and submit it to us.  

Surveys should be submitted no later than TBD of each year by any of the
following methods:

1.	Emailed to:   HYPERLINK "mailto:merse.cynthia@epa.gov" 
merse.cynthia@epa.gov .

Faxed to: 703-308-8433 (c/o Cynthia Merse).

Special delivery (e.g., FedEx) to:

Arlington, VA 22202

If you have any questions about the survey, please contact Cynthia Merse
at EPA by phone (703-308-0020) or e-mail (  HYPERLINK
"mailto:merse.cynthia@epa.gov"  merse.cynthia@epa.gov ).  Thanks in
advance for your timely completion of the survey.

Worksheet 3:  Description of Training/Education

The table below is intended for you to describe your trainings in three
ways:

Identify the training/education topics addressed;

Identify the recipients of this training/education; and

Specify the frequency of this training/education.

We realize that a Partner may provide training/education to different
types of recipients at a school across a range of training topics. 
Hence, the table below is designed for you to crosswalk specific
training topics (in the left margin) to the types of recipients that may
have received training/education in them (across the top margin).  The
shaded cells in the center of the table include a drop-down menu for you
to indicate the frequency at which you trained/educated a specific type
of recipient.

Please complete the table as follows:

1. 	Find the type(s) of recipient of your training/education in the top
margin; then,

2. 	Find the topic(s) that you trained/educated that recipient(s) in
(left margin); then,

3. 	Find their “shared” cell in the table (i.e., shaded cell) and
use the pull down menu in it to indicate the frequency of this
training/education.  

For example, if you provide training to teachers in chemical safety each
year, you would pull down the menu in the appropriate shaded cell (i.e.,
the cell in the upper left-hand corner) of the table and select
“annually.”

op margin).  The shaded cells in the center of the table include a
drop-down menu for you to indicate the number of recipients that
received an outreach method.

Please complete the table as follows:

1. 	Find the type(s) of outreach methods that you used in the top
margin; then,

2. 	Find the recipient(s) of that outreach in the left margin; then,

3. 	Find their “shared” cell in the table (i.e., shaded cell) and
use the pull down menu in it to indicate the number of recipients of
that outreach.  

For example, if you provided fliers to two schools, you would pull down
the menu in the appropriate shaded cell (i.e., the cell in the upper
left-hand corner) of the table and select “1 to 5”.
