comply with Executive Order 12862,
which directs federal agencies that
provide significant services directly to
the public to survey customers to
determine the kind and quality of

satisfaction with existing services. NAL
Internet sites are a vast collection of
Web pages created and maintained by
component organizations of NAL, and
are visited by 4.6 million people per
month on average. The information

NAL to evaluate the success of this new

access, clear, informative, and useful.
The research will provide a means by
