PURPOSE

My name is [INTERVIEWER NAME] from [INTERVIEWER ORGANIZATION]. We have been hired to gather information on efforts to promote energy efficiency that received Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant (EECBG) funding in Program Years 2009-2011. This interview is being conducted as part of an evaluation of the EECBG Program being carried out by KEMA and managed by the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) on behalf of the U. S. Department of Energy (DOE).

DOE would like to inform each individual that the information requested here is being solicited under the statutory authority of Title V, Subtitle E, Section 547 of the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA), which authorizes DOE to review and evaluate the performance of entities receiving grants under the EECBG Program. This information is being sought as part of a national evaluation of EECBG, the purpose of which is to reliably quantify Program accomplishments and identify key performance factors influencing the magnitude of EECBG outcomes. Disclosure of this information is voluntary and there will be no adverse effects associated with not providing all or any part of the requested information.

The information from all respondents will be combined for analysis purposes and data will not be released in a way that would reveal an individual respondent. If you prefer not to answer a question, just let me know and we’ll go on to the next question. If you have any questions about this study, you may contact Colleen G. Rizy at ORNL (865-574-5189; rizycg@ornl.gov).

We are calling you today to learn about your organization’s experience with &PROJECT_TITLE that was funded by EECBG. In talking about &PROJECT_TITLE, we will use the word “Activity” as a general term to refer to the single action or project, or multiple actions or projects, performed under the EECBG grant.

We anticipate that to complete this survey, it will take about 20 minutes of your time today on the phone. Then you’ll be directed to a website for completing the remainder of our questions related to your specific grant project; that should take no more than one hour and you won’t have to complete it all at once (ie., up to 90 minutes to complete both surveys. In addition, you may need to spend some time gathering information from your records to answer some of the questions in the on-line questionnaire once you get started. When you are done, you’ll be asked to submit your survey electronically following the instructions on the website. (Or you can opt to have us call you back to complete the survey on the phone if you prefer.) Either way, depending on the complexity of your grant project and recordkeeping, we anticipate that the overall time you should expect to spend in supporting this evaluation should be no more than three hours over a two week period.


SECTION C: Broad Program Area Confirmation (BP)



BP1. Applicants for EECBG funds had to classify the type of projects that the grant would fund from a set of categories called Broad Program Areas (BPA). Our records indicate that &PROJECT_TITLE was carried out under the following Broad Program Area classification: [hard code from PAGE]
