SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: FERC–153, Generic Clearance
for the Collection of Qualitative
Feedback on Commission Service
Delivery.
OMB Control No.: 1902–0293.
Type of Request: Generic information
collection.
Abstract: On March 17, 2020, the
Commission published a Notice in the
Federal Register (85 FR 15159) in
Docket No. IC20–11–000 requesting
public comments. The Commission
received no public comments and is
indicating that in the related submittal
to OMB. This information collection
provides a means to 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 data 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. This collection
will allow for ongoing, collaborative and
actionable communications between
FERC and its customers and
stakeholders. It will also allow feedback
to contribute directly to the
improvement of program management.
The solicitation of feedback will target
areas such as: Timeliness,
appropriateness, accuracy of
information, courtesy, efficiency of
service delivery, and resolution of
issues with service delivery. Responses
will be assessed to plan and inform
efforts to improve or maintain the
quality of service offered to the public.
If this information is not collected, vital
feedback from customers and
stakeholders on the Commission’s
services will be unavailable.
The Commission 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;
• The collection is targeted to the
solicitation of opinions from
respondents who have experience with
the program or may have experience
with the program soon;
• Personal identifiable information
(PII) is collected only to the extent
necessary and is not retained;
• Information gathered is intended to
be used only internally for general
service improvement and program
management purposes and is not
intended for release outside of the
Commission (if released, the
Commission must indicate the
qualitative nature of the information);
• Information gathered will not be
used for the purpose of substantially
informing influential policy decisions;
and
• Information gathered will yield
qualitative information; the collections
will not be designed or expected to
yield statistically reliable results or used
as though the results are generalizable to
the population of study.
Feedback collected under this generic
clearance provides useful information,
but it does 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 to
fielding the study.
As a general matter, this information
collection 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.
This information collection is subject
to the PRA. The Commission generally
cannot conduct or sponsor a collection
of information, and the public is
generally not required to respond to an
information collection, unless it is
approved by the OMB under the PRA
and displays a currently valid OMB
Control Number. In addition,
notwithstanding any other provisions of
law, no person shall generally be subject
to penalty for failing to comply with a
collection of information which does
not display a valid OMB Control
Number. See 5 CFR 1320.6(a). OMB
authorization for an information
collection cannot be for more than three
years without renewal.
On March 17, 2020, the Commission
published a Notice in the Federal
Register in Docket No. IC20–11–000
requesting public comments. The
Commission received no public
comments.
Type of Respondents/Affected Public:
Individuals and households; Businesses
or other for-profit and not-for-profit
organizations; State, Local, or Tribal
government.
Estimate of Annual Burden: 1 The
Commission estimates the annual public
reporting burden and cost for the

the Office of Administrative Services
Information System (OASIS, EPA–41),
with a new stand-alone system, PSS 2.0,
outside of the OASIS portal. All

portal will transfer to the new SORN for
PSS 2.0.

comment. If the EPA cannot read your
comment due to technical difficulties
and cannot contact you for clarification,
the EPA may not be able to consider
your comment. Electronic files should

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
The Office
of Mission Support (OMS) plans to
replace the current PSS (1.0), which is
a module of OASIS (EPA–41), with a
new system, PSS 2.0, outside of the
OASIS portal. OMS is creating a standalone Privacy Act system of records for
the Personnel Security System (PSS)
2.0. All exemptions and provisions
included in the SORN for PSS 1.0 under
the OASIS portal will transfer to the
new SORN for PSS 2.0. Details
regarding the system of records are
contained in this Federal Register
Notice. The PSS 2.0 assists the Security
Management Division (SMD) with
tracking the documentation associated
with security investigations for Federal
and non-Federal personnel working for
EPA. This includes reporting
requirements that meet the Security
Executive Agent Directive (SEAD) 3,
which establishes reporting
requirements for all ‘‘covered
individuals’’ who have access to
classified information or who hold a
sensitive position. Access to the system
is restricted to authorized users and will
be maintained in a secure, password
protected computer system, in secure
areas and buildings with physical access
controls and environmental controls. In
the performance of their official duties,
EPA federal personnel must input and
manage Sensitive Personally Identifiable
Information (such as SSN) and
Personally Identifiable Information
(such as home address and email
address). The data is required in the
system to start the onboarding process
and to manage personnel through
lifecycle activity at EPA (such as
background investigations).
