interest and can be improved by older
adults), and about what other areas of
the Tool could be refined and improved.
This information will allow us to create
a final version of the Safe Mobility
Assessment Tool that can be used by
older adults across the U.S. to protect
and enhance their mobility.
CDC anticipates that data collection
will begin in December 2013 and that all
data collection will be completed by
July 2014. CDC estimates the following
burden for one-time respondents: Key
informant interviews will be
administered to 6 individuals and will
take approximately 30 minutes to
complete for a total burden of 3 hours,
focus groups will be conducted for 14
older adults requiring up to 15 minutes
per participant to review the consent
form and screener and 120 minutes to
participate in the focus group for a total
burden of 32 hours, intercept interviews
will be administered to 40 older adults
requiring up to 15 minutes to review the
consent and screener form and 30
minutes to participate in the interview
for a total burden of 30 hours, and the
telephone survey will survey 1000 older
adults involving an on-your-own review
of materials (approximately 15 minutes)
and a pre-scheduled telephone survey
(approximately 27 minutes) for a total
burden of 700 hours.
Key informant interviews and the
quantitative survey will be conducted
by telephone. As telephone survey
participants are recruited, they may
elect to receive stimulus material (i.e., a
draft version of the Tool) prior to the
survey either by mail or electronically
via email, whichever they prefer. In
addition, focus group participants may
receive communications (confirmation
and reminder notices) via email or mail.
Email communication will be used with
key informant, focus group and
telephone survey respondents, however
each will be given the option of mail
rather than email as their preferred
communication method. Email will be
provided not only as a courtesy to
respondents, for those respondents that
prefer email rather than mail, but also,
it will allow more open and swift
communication between CDC and the
study participants. Additionally,
recruitment/screening for the focus
groups and telephone surveys, as well
as administration of the telephone
surveys will use Computer Assisted
Telephone Interview (CATI) systems for
data collection, which are designed to
reduce the burden to respondents.
There are no costs to respondents
other than their time. The total
estimated annual burden hours are 765.

Title: Generic Clearance for the
Collection of Qualitative Feedback on
Agency Service Delivery.
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

Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 220 / Thursday, November 14, 2013 / Notices
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
generalization 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.
The Agency received no comments in
response to the 60-day notice published
in the Federal Register on December 22,
2010 (75 FR 80542).
This is a new collection of
information. Individual respondents can
participate in the telephone survey
voluntary. Below we provide CDC’s
projected annualized estimate for next
three years. There is no cost to
respondents other than their time. The
estimated annualized burden hours for
this data collection activity are 4,000.
