SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
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
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
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 of February 14,
2014 (FR Vol. 79, No. 31, page 9003).
Below we provide the projected
average estimates for the next three
years:
Current Actions: Renew collection of
information.
Type of Review: Renew Collection.
OMB Number: 0081.
Agency Number: 3137.
Affected Public: Individuals and
Households, Businesses and
Organizations, State, Local or Tribal
Government.
Average Expected Annual Number of
activities: 5.
Annual responses: 4,900.
Frequency of Response: Once per
request.
Average minutes per response: 55
minutes.
Burden hours: 3,900 hours.
Total Annual Costs: $38,102.
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid
Office of Management and Budget
control number.

RAILROAD RETIREMENT BOARD
Proposed Collection; Comment
Request
Summary: In accordance with the
requirement of Section 3506 (c)(2)(A) of
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
which provides opportunity for public
comment on new or revised data
collections, the Railroad Retirement
Board (RRB) will publish periodic
summaries of proposed data collections.
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the proposed information collection is
necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the agency, including
whether the information has practical
utility; (b) the accuracy of the RRB’s
estimate of the burden of the collection
of the information; (c) ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (d)
ways to minimize the burden related to
the collection of information on
respondents, including the use of
automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
Title and purpose of information
collection: Certification of Termination
of Service and Relinquishment of
Rights; OMB 3220–0016.
Under Section 2(e)(2) of the Railroad
Retirement Act (RRA), an age and
service annuity, spouse annuity, or
divorced spouse annuity cannot be paid
unless the Railroad Retirement Board
(RRB) has evidence that the applicant
has ceased railroad employment and
relinquished rights to return to the
service of a railroad employer. Under
Section 2(f)(6) of the RRA, earnings
deductions are required for each month
an annuitant works in certain nonrailroad employment termed Last PreRetirement Non-Railroad Employment.
Normally, the employee, spouse, or
divorced spouse relinquishes rights and
certifies that employment has ended as
part of the annuity application process.
However, this is not always the case. In
limited circumstances, the RRB utilizes
Form G–88, Certification of Termination
of Service and Relinquishment of
Rights, to obtain an applicant’s report of
termination of employment and
relinquishment of rights. One response
is required of each respondent.
Completion is required to obtain or
retain benefits. The RRB proposes no
changes to Form G–88.
Estimate of Annual Respondent Burden

burden is as follows:
