Title: National Park Service Partnership Satisfaction Surveys. Form(s): None. Type of Request: Extension of a currently approved collection of information. Description of Need: The Government Performance and Results Act requires Federal agencies to prepare annual performance reports documenting the progress made toward achieving longterm goals. The National Park Service needs the information in the proposed collections to assess the annual progress being made toward meeting Long-term Goal IIIb2 of the National Park Service Strategic Plan. Goal IIIb2 performance target is 95% of communities served are satisfied with NPS partnership assistance in providing recreation and conservation benefits on lands and waters. The information sought is not collected elsewhere by the Federal Government. The proposed information collections impose no data collection or record keeping burden on the potential respondents. Responses to the surveys are voluntary and are based on data that the respondents already collect and/or personal opinion. The National Park Service needs this information to help evaluate and improve its partnership assistance programs. NPS’ Rivers, Trails and Conservation Assistance Program (RTCA) and Federal Lands to Parks (FLP) Program will conduct surveys to assess client satisfaction with the services received and to identify needed program improvements. The NPS conducts these surveys to identify areas of strengths and weaknesses in its recreation and conservation assistance programs, to provide an information base for improving those programs, and to provide a required performance measurement (Goal IIIb2 of the National Park Service Strategic Plan) under the Government Performance and Results Act. Affected public: 180 surveys to private sector and public sector contacts for RTCA and 75 surveys for FLP. A total of 255 surveys to be sent in 2010 and 255 surveys to be sent in 2012. Obligation to respond: Voluntary. Frequency of response: Biennial. Estimated total annual responses: 150. Estimated average completion time per response: 10 minutes. Estimated annual reporting burden: 26 hours. Estimated annual nonhour cost burden: $0. Comments are invited on: (1) The practical utility of the information being gathered; (2) the accuracy of the burden VerDate Nov<24>2008 22:52 Aug 24, 2009 Jkt 217001 hour estimate; (3) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) ways to minimize the burden to respondents, including use of automated information collection techniques or other forms of information technology.
