Overview of This Information Collection Title: Generic Clearance for the Collection of Qualitative Feedback on Agency Service Delivery. OMB Number: 1651–0136. Current Actions: This submission is being made to extend the expiration date with no change to the burden hours. Type of Review: Extension (without change). 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. PO 00000 Frm 00059 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 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. Affected Public: Individuals and businesses. Type of Collection: Comment cards. Estimated Number of Respondents: 10,000. Estimated Number of Annual Responses per Respondent: 1. Estimated Number of Total Annual Responses: 10,000. Estimated Time per Response: 3 minutes. Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 500 hours. Type of Collection: Customer Surveys. Estimated Number of Respondents: 50,000. Estimated Numbers of Annual Responses per Respondent: 1. Estimated Number of Total Annual Responses: 50,000. Estimated Time per Response: 15 minutes. Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 12,500. E:\FR\FM\16OCN1.SGM 16OCN1
