As noted, feedback collected under this generic clearance does not produce results generalizable to the population of interest. 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.

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 collection of information has been approved by OMB under control number 1212–0066 (expires October 31, 2020). On May 27, 2020, PBGC published in the Federal Register (at 85 FR 31824) a notice informing the public of its intent to request an extension of this collection of information without modification. PBGC did not receive any comments about this collection of information. PBGC is requesting that OMB extend its approval for another three years. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. Annually, over the next three years, PBGC estimates that it will conduct three activities involving about 1,630 respondents, each of whom will provide one response. The number of respondents will vary by activity: 40 for usability testing, 90 for focus groups (nine groups of ten respondents), and 1,500 for customer satisfaction surveys. PBGC estimates the annual burden of this collection of information as 635 hours: 2 hours per response for usability testing (total 80 hours); 2 hours per response for focus groups (total 180 hours); and 15 minutes per response for customer satisfaction surveys (total 375 hours).

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

Responses will be assessed to plan and inform efforts to improve or 
maintain the quality of service offered to the public. If this 
information were not collected, vital feedback from customers and 
stakeholders on PBGC's services would be unavailable.
    PBGC only submits 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 non-controversial 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;
     Information gathered will be used only internally for 
general service improvement and program management purposes and is not 
intended for release outside of the agency;
     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 interest.
    As noted, feedback collected under this generic clearance does not 
produce results generalizable to the population of interest. 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. Collections with such objectives 
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 non-
response 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, 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 collection of information has been approved by OMB under 
control number 1212-0066 (expires October 31, 2020). On May 27, 2020, 
PBGC published in the Federal Register (at 85 FR 31824) a notice 
informing the public of its intent to request an extension of this
