questions pertaining to this pending
request for emergency approval MUST
be directed to OMB, Office of

comments and suggestions from the
public and affected agencies concerning
this information collection. Comments
are encouraged and will be accepted
until November 29, 2005. During 60-day
regular review, ALL comments and
suggestions, or questions regarding
additional information, to include
obtaining a copy of the information

Notice and request for
comments.
ACTION:
SUMMARY: The Federal Emergency
Management Agency, as part of its
continuing effort to reduce paperwork
and respondent burden, invites the
general public and other Federal
agencies to take this opportunity to
comment on proposed continuing
information collections. In accordance
with the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995 (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)), this
notice seeks comments concerning the
U.S. Fire Administration’s National Fire
Academy Long-term Course Evaluation
Forms.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The data
collection from the long-term evaluation
Number of
respondents
(A)
FEMA forms
forms—one for students and one for the
student’s supervisor—will obtain course
specific feedback regarding the impact
of course content on job performance.
This data is needed to improve
instructional delivery and curriculum
design. Demographic data are needed to
identify differentials in course impact.
The information collection also
supports the Government Performance
and Results Act and the Agency’s
Programming, Planning and Budgeting
reporting requirements. In an effort to
help minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, the paper-based forms
will be converted to an automated/
electronic format that will allow for the
electronic submission of responses. As
such the respondent universe will
increase due to the on-line availability
of the forms and linkage to the current
end-of-course evaluation form. By using
an automated process, it is expected that
the estimated cost associated with the
processing of the forms will decrease.
Title: National Fire Academy Longterm Evaluation Forms (Students and
Supervisors).
Type of Information Collection:
Extension of a currently approved
collection.
OMB Number: 1660–0039.
Form Numbers: FF 95–58 and FF 95–
59.
Abstract: The National Fire
Academy’s long-term evaluation
forms—one for students and one for the
student’s supervisor—will obtain course
specific feedback regarding impact of
course content on job performance. The
