OMB for renewal in compliance with
the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA).
The ICR describes the nature of the
information collection and its expected
burden. The information collection
activity provides a means to gather
qualitative customer and stakeholder
feedback in an efficient, timely manner,
in accordance with the Administration’s
commitment to improving service
delivery.
SUMMARY:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
DATES:
Comments Invited
In accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501
et seq.), an agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
unless it displays a valid OMB control
number. The ICR documentation is
available at https://www.reginfo.gov.
Therefore, in preparation for OMB
review and approval of the following
information collection, TSA is soliciting
comments to—
(1) Evaluate whether the proposed
information requirement is necessary for
the proper performance of the functions
of the agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(2) Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden;
(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
(4) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including using
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.

Qualitative Feedback on Agency Service
Delivery. The information collection
activity provides a means to gather
qualitative customer and stakeholder
feedback in an efficient, timely manner,
in accordance with the Administration’s
commitment to improving service
delivery.
From the TSA perspective, qualitative
customer and stakeholder feedback is
information that provides useful
insights on perceptions and opinions; it
is different than the results of statistical
surveys, which yield quantitative results
that can be generalized to the
population of study. This qualitative
feedback provides insights into
customer or stakeholder perceptions,
experiences, and expectations regarding
TSA products or services, provides TSA
with an early warning of issues with
service, and focuses attention on areas
where improvement is needed regarding
communication, training, or changes in
operations that might improve delivery
of products or services. These
collections allow for ongoing,
collaborative, and actionable
communications between the Agency
and its customers and stakeholders.
They also allow feedback to contribute
directly to the improvement of program
management. The solicitation of
feedback targets areas such as:
timeliness, appropriateness, accuracy of
information, courtesy, efficiency of
service delivery, and resolution of
issues with service delivery. Responses
are assessed to plan and inform efforts
to improve or maintain the quality of
service offered by TSA. If this
information is not collected, vital
feedback from customers and
stakeholders on the Agency’s services
will be unavailable.
The Agency will only submit a
collection for approval under this
generic clearance if it meets the
following conditions:
• The collections are voluntary.
• The collections are low-burden for
respondents (based on considerations of
total burden hours, total number of
respondents, or burden-hours per
respondent) and are low-cost for both
the respondents and the Federal
Government.
• The collections are
noncontroversial and do not raise issues
of concern to other Federal agencies.
• Any collection is targeted to the
solicitation of opinions from
respondents who have experience with
the program or may have experience
with the program in the near future.
• Personally identifiable information
(PII) is collected only to the extent
necessary and is not retained.

Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 27 / Wednesday, February 10, 2016 / Notices
As a general matter, information
collections will not result in any new
system of records containing privacy
information and will not ask questions
of a sensitive nature, such as sexual
behavior and attitudes, religious beliefs,
and other matters that are commonly
considered private.
The aggregate burden estimate is
based on a review of past behavior of
participating program offices and
several individual office estimates. The
likely respondents to this proposed
information request are state, local, or
tribal government and law enforcement;
traveling public; individuals and
households; and businesses and
organizations. TSA estimates an average
of 10 annual surveys with
approximately 709,450 respondents per
activity for a total of 7,094,500
responses. TSA further estimates a
frequency of one response per request
with an average response time of 30
minutes (0.5 hours) resulting in an
estimated 3,547,250 burden hours.
Program offices will provide more
refined individual estimates of burden
in their subsequent generic information
collection applications. The burden
hour estimates reflect an increase over
prior burden hour estimates because
TSA anticipates increasing customer
and stakeholder outreach due to
expanding outreach efforts by additional
program offices.
