Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 180 / Wednesday, September 17, 2014 / Notices
on proposed and/or continuing
information collections pursuant to the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub.
L. 104–13; 44 U.S.C. 3507). The
comments should address: (a) Whether
the collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the agency, including
whether the information shall have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimates of the burden of the
collection of information; (c) ways to
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity
of the information to be collected; (d)
ways to minimize the burden, including
the use of automated collection
techniques or the use of other forms of
information technology; and (e) the
annual costs to respondents or record
keepers from the collection of
information (total capital/startup costs
and operations and maintenance costs).
The comments that are submitted will
be summarized and included in the CBP
request for OMB approval. All
comments will become a matter of
public record. In this document, CBP is
soliciting comments concerning the
following information collection:
Title: Generic Clearance for the
Collection of Qualitative Feedback on
Agency Service Delivery.
OMB Number: 1651–0136.
Abstract: The information collection
activity will garner qualitative customer
and stakeholder feedback in an efficient,
timely manner, in accordance with the
Administration’s commitment to
improving service delivery. By
qualitative feedback we mean
information that provides useful
insights on perceptions and opinions,
but are not statistical surveys that yield
quantitative results that can be
generalized to the population of study.
This feedback will provide insights into
customer or stakeholder perceptions,
experiences and expectations, provide
an early warning of issues with service,
or focus attention on areas where
communication, training or changes in
operations might improve delivery of
products or services. These collections
will allow for ongoing, collaborative and
actionable communications between the
Agency and its customers and
stakeholders. It will also allow feedback
to contribute directly to the
improvement of program management.
Feedback collected under this generic
clearance will provide useful
information, but it will not yield data
that can be generalized to the overall
population. This type of generic
clearance for qualitative information
will not be used for quantitative
information collections that are
designed to yield reliably actionable
results, such as monitoring trends over

time or documenting program
performance. Such data uses require
more rigorous designs that address: The
target population to which
generalizations will be made, the
sampling frame, the sample design
(including stratification and clustering),
the precision requirements or power
calculations that justify the proposed
sample size, the expected response rate,
methods for assessing potential nonresponse bias, the protocols for data
collection, and any testing procedures
that were or will be undertaken prior
fielding the study. Depending on the
degree of influence the results are likely
to have, such collections may still be
eligible for submission for other generic
mechanisms that are designed to yield
quantitative results.
Current Actions: This submission is
being made to extend the expiration
date with no change to the burden hours
or to the information collected.
Type of Review: Extension (without
change).
Affected Public: Individuals and
Businesses.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
60,000.
Annual Frequency of Response: 1.
Estimated Time per Response: 13
minutes.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 13,000 hours.
