agencies must generally provide
opportunities for public comment and
obtain OMB approval for each collection
of information they conduct or sponsor
(e.g., contractually-required information
collection by a third-party). ‘‘Collection
of information’’ refers to agency
informational requests that pose
identical questions to, or impose
reporting or record-keeping obligations
on, ten or more non-federal entities or
persons, regardless of whether response
is mandatory or voluntary. See 5 CFR
1320.3(c); see also 44 U.S.C. 3502(3).
In December 2020, the Access Board
published a 60-day notice concerning
the proposed renewal of its existing
generic clearance for the collection of
qualitative feedback, which expires in
May 2021 (OMB Control No. 3014–
0011). 82 FR 37421 (Aug. 10, 2017). We
received no comments in response to
this 60-day notice.
B. Overview of Requested Generic
Clearance Renewal
By this notice, the Access Board
announces that it has requested OMB
renewal of our existing generic
clearance so that we may continue
ongoing efforts to solicit qualitative
customer feedback on agency programs
and services. OMB approval is
requested for three years. Provided
below is an overview of the existing
generic clearance for which the Access
Board seeks renewal:
OMB Control Number: 3014–0011.
Title: Generic Clearance for the
Collection of Qualitative Feedback on
Agency Service Delivery.
Type of Request: Extension without
change.
Abstract: The proposed information
collection activity facilitates collection
of qualitative customer and stakeholder
feedback in an efficient, timely manner,
in accordance with the Federal
Government’s commitment to
improving service delivery. By
qualitative feedback we mean
information collections that provide
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
insight 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 services. These
collections will allow for ongoing,
collaborative, and actionable
communications between the Access
Board and its customers and
stakeholders.

delivery, including (a) whether the

necessary for the Access Board’s
performance; (b) the accuracy of the
estimated burden; (c) ways for the
Access Board to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information
collection; and (d) ways that the burden
