publication in the Federal Register.
ADDRESSES: You may submit written
comments by mail to: Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs,
Office of Management and Budget,
Attention: Desk Officer for OSC, New
Executive Office Building, Room 10235,
Washington, DC 20503; or by email via:

Susan Ullman, General Counsel of the
U.S. Office of Special Counsel, by
telephone at (202) 804–7000, or by
email at sullman@osc.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OSC is a
permanent independent federal
investigative and prosecutorial agency.
OSC’s basic authorities come from four
federal statutes: The Civil Service
Reform Act, the Whistleblower
Protection Act, the Hatch Act, and the
Uniformed Services Employment &
Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA).
OSC’s primary mission is to safeguard
the merit system by protecting federal
employees and applicants from
prohibited personnel practices,
especially reprisal for whistleblowing,
and to serve as a safe channel for
allegations of wrongdoing.
OSC is required to conduct an annual
survey of individuals who seek its
assistance. Under Section 13 of Public
Law 103–424 (1994), codified at 5
U.S.C. 1212 note, OSC distributed prior
annual surveys after the conclusion of
cases. OSC sent four separate
questionnaires to four categories of
complainants and whistleblowers,
asking (1) whether the respondent was
fully apprised of their rights; (2) if their
claim was successful at OSC or at the
MSPB; and (3) successful or not, if they
were satisfied with the service received
from OSC. OSC reported the results in
its annual report.
The OSC Reauthorization Act of 2017,
Public Law 115–91, Sec. 1097, required
OSC to suspend its existing survey
obligations in order to allow OSC to
design a survey to ‘‘collect [ ]
information and improv[e] service at
various stages of [OSC’s] review or
investigation.’’ The proposed 2019
survey is a single questionnaire
consisting of 11 questions to be asked of
individuals who have filed a complaint
or disclosure with OSC. The 2019
survey asks respondents to identify the
stage of their complaint or disclosure;
the outcome, if closed; to rate their
interactions with OSC staff, including
whether OSC was responsive to
communications, the frequency and
clarity of OSC communications,
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:42 Jul 29, 2019
Jkt 247001
whether the respondent had the
opportunity to provide additional
information, and whether OSC allowed
the respondent to ask further questions;
to rate their overall experience; and to
offer any suggestions for improvement.
As required by the Paperwork
Reduction 1995, (Pub. L. 104–13, 44
U.S.C. chapter 35) as amended by the
Clinger-Cohen Act (Pub. L. 104–106),
OSC is soliciting comments for this
survey because it collects information.
Current and former Federal employees,
employee representatives, other Federal
agencies, state and local government
employees, and the general public are
invited to comment on: (a) The accuracy
of OSC’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information; (b)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (c) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on respondents.
The OSC Reauthorization Act also
requires OSC to publish the 2019
survey’s results in OSC’s annual report
to Congress. Copies of prior years’
annual reports are available on OSC’s
website, at https://osc.gov/Pages/
Resources-ReportsAndInfo.aspx or by
calling OSC at (202) 804–7000. The
prior OSC Annual Survey, OMB Control
Number 3255–0003, expired on
November 30, 2016.
OSC is requesting emergency
approval of this modified collection of
information, as the 2019 survey must be
completed and reviewed by the end of
FY2019. As with the prior approved
survey, the 2019 survey will be hosted
by Survey Monkey (https://
www.surveymonkey.com). The 2019
survey questionnaires are available for
review online at https://osc.gov/Pages/
Resources-ReportsAndInfo.aspx or by
calling OSC at (202) 804–7000.
Type of Information Collection
Request: Approval of a re-designed
survey collecting information aimed at
enabling OSC to improve service at
various stages of its review or
investigation and thereby better
accomplish OSC’s mission.
Affected Public: Filers (or their
representatives) seeking OSC services
through (1) filing complaints alleging
prohibited personnel practice or Hatch
Act violations; (2) seeking Hatch Act
advisory opinions; or (3) making
disclosures of information alleging gross
mismanagement or waste; a violation of
law, rule, or regulation; abuse of
authority; a substantial and specific
danger to public health or safety; or
censorship related to scientific research.
Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary.
