Affected Public: Individuals; Private sector; and State, Local, or Tribal governments. Estimated Number of Annual Respondents: 27,000. Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 3,000. Abstract: This generic information collection plan provides for the collection of qualitative feedback from consumers, financial institutions, and stakeholders on a wide range of services the Bureau provides in an efficient, timely manner, in accordance with the Bureau’s commitment to improving service delivery. By qualitative feedback, the Bureau means information that provides useful insights on, for example, comprehension, usability, perceptions, and opinions, but are not statistical surveys that yield quantitative results that can be generalized to the population of study. The Bureau expects this feedback to include insights into consumer, financial institution, 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 Bureau and consumers, financial institutions, and stakeholders. It will also allow feedback to contribute directly to the improvement of program management. The Bureau is proposing new collections of information pursuant to this request. Request for Comments: The Bureau issued a 60-day Federal Register notice on October 1, 2018, 83 FR 49368, Docket Number: CFPB–2018–0032.

Affected Public: Businesses and other for-profit entities and not-for-profit institutions. Respondent’s Obligation: Required to obtain or retain benefits. Type of Request: New submission. Reporting Frequency: On occasion. Number of Respondents: 766. Responses per Respondent: 5.6. Annual Responses: 4,290. Average Burden per Response: .5 hours. Annual Response Burden Hours: 2,145 (includes 1,762 response hours plus 383 recordkeeping hours). Needs and Uses: The information collected is a result of a new DFARS requirement to use FAR clause 52.245– 1, Government Property, in purchase orders for repair, maintenance, overhaul, or modification of Government property, regardless of the unit acquisition cost of the items to be repaired. Updated information for fiscal year 2018 awards of purchase orders for repairs was obtained from the Federal Procurement Data System to update the number of respondents, responses, and annual burden hours for the information collection and this notice. The property records, receiving reports, and receipt provided in the Wide Area WorkFlow system are used by DoD for Government property accountability. The DFARS requirement for electronic notification of receipt provides assurance to the Government that repair assets have arrived at the contractor’s repair facility. Moreover, in the case of repair items provided under purchase orders, contractors need only report the receipt of the repair item; no other reporting is required. Submission of the information for purchase orders for repairs facilitates compliance with DoD Instruction 4161.02 entitled ‘‘Accountability and Management of Government Contract Property,’’ which requires DoD components to use electronic transactions when transferring Government property to a contractor and upon return of property to DoD. OMB Desk Officer: Ms. Jasmeet Seehra. Comments and recommendations on the proposed information collection should be sent to Ms. Jasmeet Seehra, DoD Desk Officer, at Oira_submission@omb.eop.gov.

currently considered reasonable or within the scope of the proposed EIS

affected public, federal, state, and local agencies, any affected 
Native American tribe, and other interested persons should be 
substantive in nature, in order to assist the Air Force in early 
identification of significant issues, and to ensure those issues are 
properly analyzed.

issue a Notice of Intent to prepare an EIS for the follow-on permanent
