                management decisions about its research programs and to demonstrate the
                outputs, outcomes and impacts of its research programs NIEHS will
                collect, analyze and report on data from extramural grantees who are
                currently receiving funding or who have received funding in the past on
                topics such as: (1) Key scientific outcomes achieved through the
                research and the impact on the field of environmental health science;
                (2) Contribution of research findings to program goals and objectives;
                (3) Satisfaction with the program support received; (4) Challenges and
                benefits of the funding mechanism used to support the science; and (5)
                Emerging research areas and gaps in the research.
                 Information gained from this primary data collection will be used
                in conjunction with data from grantee progress reports and
                presentations at grantee meetings to inform internal programs and new
                funding initiatives. Outcome information to be collected includes
                measures of agency-funded research resulting in dissemination of

                standards, guidelines and recommendations, information on patents and
                new drug applications and community outreach and public awareness
                relevant to extramural research funding and emerging areas of research.
                 OMB approval is requested for 3 years. There are no costs to
                respondents, other than their time. The total estimated annualized
