Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 108 / Tuesday, June 8, 2021 / Notices
821, 831 (1985) (‘‘This Court has
recognized on several occasions over
many years that an agency’s decision
not to prosecute or enforce, whether
through civil or criminal process, is a
decision generally committed to an
agency’s absolute discretion.’’). Instead,
agencies exercise their investigative and
prosecutorial discretion based on
matters such as enforcement priorities
and the availability of resources. See,
e.g., id. at 831–32.
Further, Petitioner has had, and
continues to have, the option of
submitting an application for a new
DEA registration. The Agency’s
decisions make clear that an applicant’s
past actions that violate the law need
not result in her being denied a DEA
registration indefinitely. See, e.g.,
Michele L. Martinho, M.D., 86 FR 24012
(2021).
Regarding her allegation that the
sanction I assessed in my April 12, 2021
Decision/Order is ‘‘excessive, unjust,
and disproportionate to her actions,’’
Petitioner neither submitted evidence
for the record during the hearing on the
OSC nor now submits evidence that
substantiates it. My April 21, 2021
Decision/Order, however, explains how
violations that I found Petitioner had
committed go to the heart of the CSA
and its implementing regulations, and
rejects her arguments that minimize
applicable legal requirements. See, e.g.,
86 FR at 19024. Accordingly, I do not
find persuasive Petitioner’s arguments
that there is a substantial likelihood that
she will prevail on the merits upon
appellate review, and I reject them.
Petitioner’s irreparable injury
arguments are predictions that she does
not tether to existing or new record
evidence. For example, as already
discussed, Petitioner provides an
address for herself in Las Vegas, Nevada
in the pro se review petition she
recently filed in the District of Columbia
Circuit. Supra n.1. There is no record
evidence, and she submitted no new
evidence along with this or her Review
Petition filing, that Petitioner is
registered in Nevada or even that she is
licensed to practice medicine in
Nevada. Petitioner’s irreparable injury
arguments related to any future loss by
her of earned income, therefore, are
without a sufficient basis in record
evidence. Accordingly, I reject them.
Further, Petitioner’s loss of earned
income claims are of a generic nature
that any practitioner whose registration
had been revoked or suspended could
make. Even if Petitioner had submitted
record evidence substantiating these
predictions, the CSA does not direct me
to consider her loss of earned income or
potential loss of earned income.

Accordingly, I do not accept Petitioner’s
irreparable injury arguments.
Nken makes clear that the ‘‘first two
factors of the traditional standard are
the most critical.’’ 556 U.S. at 434. It
also explains that, if the applicant
satisfies the first two factors, ‘‘the
traditional stay inquiry calls for
assessing the harm to the opposing party
and weighing the public interest.’’ Id. at
435. Here, Petitioner has not satisfied
either of the first two factors. Supreme
Court case law makes clear that I need
not address Petitioner’s arguments
regarding the third and fourth stay
factors. Id. For the sake of having a
complete record, however, I shall do so.
Assuming, arguendo, the accuracy of
Petitioner’s arguments that she has
never been accused of harming a person,
and of her suggestion that the third
factor addresses such harm, I find that
the legal violations I sustained in my
April 12, 2021 Decision/Order do not
include harm to a person among their
elements. Accordingly, I find
Petitioner’s third factor arguments to be
irrelevant, and I reject them.
Fourth, even if the record evidence
substantiates Petitioner’s public interest
claims, which it does not, the Agency
has rejected community impact
arguments. See, e.g., Perry County Food
& Drug, 80 FR 70084 (2015).
Accordingly, I reject Petitioner’s public
interest arguments.
Having determined that Petitioner has
not met her burden of showing that the
circumstances justify an exercise of my
discretion to stay enforcement of the
sanction I ordered on April 12, 2021,
pending appellate review, I deny her
Motion to Stay.
It is so ordered.
Dated: May 11, 2021.

Acting Administrator.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Purpose
Under the PRA, (44 U.S.C. 3501–
3520) Federal Agencies must obtain
approval from the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) for each collection of
information they conduct or sponsor.
‘‘Collection of information’’ is defined
in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR
1320.3(c) and includes Agency requests
or requirements that members of the
public submit reports, keep records, or
provide information to a third party.
Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA
requires Federal Agencies to provide a
60-day notice in the Federal Register
concerning each proposed collection of
information, including each proposed
extension of an existing collection of
information, before submitting the
collection to OMB for approval. To
comply with this requirement, GSA is
publishing notice of the proposed
collection of information set forth in
this document.
Whether seeking a loan, Social
Security benefits, veteran’s benefits, or
other services provided by the Federal
Government, individuals and businesses
expect Government customer services to
be efficient and intuitive, just like
services from leading private-sector
organizations. Yet the 2016 American
Consumer Satisfaction Index and the
2017 Forrester Federal Customer
Experience Index show that, on average,
Government services lag nine
percentage points behind the private
sector.

A modern, streamlined and
responsive customer experience means:
Raising government-wide customer
experience to the average of the private
sector service industry; developing
indicators for high-impact Federal
programs to monitor progress towards
excellent customer experience and
mature digital services; and providing
the structure (including increasing
transparency) and resources to ensure
customer experience is a focal point for
agency leadership. To support this,
OMB Circular A–11 Section 280
established government-wide standards
for mature customer experience
organizations in government and
measurement. To enable Federal
programs to deliver the experience
taxpayers deserve, they must undertake
three general categories of activities:
Conduct ongoing customer research,
gather and share customer feedback, and
test services and digital products.
These data collection efforts may be
either qualitative or quantitative in
nature or may consist of mixed
methods. Additionally, data may be
collected via a variety of means,
including but not limited to electronic
or social media, direct or indirect
observation (i.e., in person, video and
audio collections), interviews,
questionnaires, surveys, and focus
groups. The De will limit its inquiries to
data collections that solicit strictly
voluntary opinions or responses. Steps
will be taken to ensure anonymity of
respondents in each activity covered by
this request.
The results of the data collected will
be used to improve the delivery of
Federal services and programs. It will
include the creation of personas,
customer journey maps, and reports and
summaries of customer feedback data
and user insights. It will also provide
government-wide data on customer
experience that can be displayed on
performance.gov to help build
transparency and accountability of
Federal programs to the customers they
serve.
Method of Collection
The Department will collect this
information by electronic means when
possible, as well as by mail, fax,
telephone, technical discussions, and
in-person interviews. The Department
may also utilize observational
techniques to collect this information.
Data
Form Number(s): None.
Type of Review: New.
