  4. Are operators required to sample stakeholder audience awareness levels before June 20, 2006?
  5. When must an operator complete the first evaluation of program effectiveness?
  6. Must a public awareness program include supplemental elements (enhancements)?
  7. What is a significant percentage of non-English speaking populations and how can that percentage be determined?
