Title: Generic Clearance for the
Collection of Qualitative Feedback on
Agency Service Delivery
(OMB Number: 2132–0572)
Background: 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
VerDate Mar<15>2010
16:42 Apr 07, 2014
Jkt 232001
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
Federal Transit Administration and its
customers and stakeholders. It will also
allow feedback to contribute directly to
the improvement of program
management. Feedback collected under
this generic 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
generalizations 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 to
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.
Affected Public: Individuals and
Households, Businesses and
Organizations, State, Local or Tribal
Government.
Below we provide the Federal Transit
Administration’s projected average
estimates for the next three years:
Average Expected Annual Number of
Activities: 4.
Respondents: 2,700.
Annual Responses: 2,700.
Frequency of Response: Once per
request.
Average Minutes per Response: 3.8.
Burden Hours: 592 annually.

Associate Administrator for Administration.
