SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On
November 5, 2009, President Obama
signed the ‘‘Memorandum for the Heads
of Executive Departments and Agencies

stated that his Administration is
committed to regular and meaningful
consultation and collaboration with
tribal officials in policy decisions that
have tribal implications, including, as
an initial step, complete and consistent
implementation of Executive Order
13175.
The United States has a unique legal
and political relationship with Indian
tribal governments, established through
and confirmed by the Constitution of
the United States, treaties, statutes,
executive orders, and judicial decisions.
In recognition of that special
relationship, pursuant to Executive
Order 13175 of November 6, 2000,
executive departments and agencies are

meaningful consultation and
collaboration with tribal officials in the
development of federal policies that

have tribal implications, and are
responsible for strengthening the
government-to-government relationship
between the United States and Indian
tribes.
HHS has taken its responsibility to
comply with Executive Order 13175
very seriously over the past decade,
including the initial implementation of
a Department-wide policy on Tribal
consultation and coordination in 1997,
and through multiple evaluations and
revisions of that policy, most recently in
2010. ACF has developed its own
agency-specific consultation policy that
complements the Department-wide
efforts.
ACF’s Administration for Native
Americans will hold a consultation on
June 16, 2014. ACF Principals will be
available to speak with Tribal Leaders to
discuss issues important to the tribes
and will focus on ACF tribal program

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), Federal
Agencies must obtain approval from the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for each collection of

‘‘Collection of information’’ is defined
in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR
1320.3(c) and includes Agency requests
or requirements that members of the
public submit reports, keep records, or
provide information to a third party.
Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44
U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)) requires Federal
Agencies to provide a 60-day notice in
the Federal Register concerning each
proposed collection of information,

existing collection of information,
before submitting the collection to OMB

(OMB Control Number 0910–0360)—
Extension
Under section 903 of the Federal
Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 U.S.C.
393), FDA is authorized to conduct
research and public information
programs about regulated products and
responsibilities of the Agency.
Executive Order 12862, entitled,
‘‘Setting Customer Service Standard,’’
directs Federal Agencies that ‘‘provide
significant services directly to the
public’’ to ‘‘survey customers to
determine the kind and quality of
services they want and their level of
satisfaction with existing services.’’ FDA
is seeking OMB clearance to conduct a
series of surveys to implement
Executive Order 12862. Participation in
the surveys is voluntary. This request
covers customer/partner service surveys
of regulated entities, such as food
processors; cosmetic drug, biologic and
medical device manufacturers;
consumers; and health professionals.
The request also covers ‘‘partner’’ (State
and local governments) customer
service surveys.
FDA will use the information from
these surveys to identify strengths and
weaknesses in service to customers/
partners and to make improvements.
The surveys will measure timeliness,
appropriateness and accuracy of
information, courtesy and problem
resolution in the context of individual
programs.
FDA estimates conducting 15
customer/partner service surveys per
year, each requiring an average of 15
minutes for review and completion. We
estimate respondents to these surveys to
be between 100 and 20,000 customers.
Some of these surveys will be repeats of
earlier surveys for purposes of
monitoring customer/partner service
and developing long-term data.
FDA estimates the burden of this
collection of information as follows:
