SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title of Collection: NSF Surveys to
Measure Customer Service Satisfaction.
OMB Number: 3145–0157.
Type of Request: Intent to seek
approval to renew an information
collection.
Abstract
Proposed Project: On September 11,
1993, President Clinton issued
Executive Order 12862, ‘‘Setting
Customer Service Standards,’’ which
calls for Federal agencies to provide
service that matches or exceeds the best
service available in the private sector.
Section 1(b) of that order requires
agencies to ‘‘survey customers to
determine the kind and quality of
services they want and their level of
satisfaction with existing services.’’ The
National Science Foundation (NSF) has
an ongoing need to collect information
from its customer community (primarily
individuals and organizations engaged
in science and engineering research and
education) about the quality and kind of
services it provides and use that
information to help improve agency
operations and services.
Estimate of Burden: The burden on
the public will change according to the
needs of each individual customer
satisfaction survey; however, each
survey is estimated to take
approximately 30 minutes per response.
Respondents: Will vary among
individuals or households; business or
other for-profit; not-for-profit
institutions; farms; federal government;
state, local or tribal governments.
Estimated Number of Responses per
Survey: This will vary by survey.
Comments: Comments are invited on
(a) whether the proposed 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
estimate of the burden of the proposed
collection of information; (c) ways to
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity
of the information on respondents,
including through the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology; and (d) ways to
minimize the burden of the collection of
information on those who are to
respond, including through the use of
appropriate automated, electronic,

collection techniques or other forms of
