SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Generic Clearance for Survey
Research Studies.
OMB Number: 0536–0073.
Expiration Date of Approval: May 31,
2022.
Type of Request: Intent To Seek
Approval To Extend an Information
Collection for 3 Years.
Abstract: In accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub.
L. 104–13) and OMB regulations at 5
CFR part 1320 (60 FR 44978, August 29,
1995), this notice announces the ERS’
intention to request renewal of approval
from the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) for a generic clearance
that will allow ERS to rigorously
develop, test, and evaluate its survey
methodologies, instruments, and
administration. The mission of ERS is to
provide economic and other social
science information and analysis for
public and private decisions on
agriculture, food, natural resources, and
rural America. This request is part of an
on-going initiative to improve ERS data
product quality, as recommended by
both its own guidelines and those of
OMB.
The purpose of this generic clearance
is to allow ERS to evaluate, adopt, and
use state-of-the-art and multidisciplinary research to improve and
enhance the quality of its current data
collections. This clearance will also be
used to aid in the development of new
surveys. It will help to ensure that
requested data can be provided in the
desired format, reporting burden (time
and financial resources) is minimized,
collection instruments are clearly
understood, and the impact of collection
requirements on respondents can be
properly assessed.
ERS envisions using a variety of
survey improvement techniques, as
appropriate to the individual project

under investigation. These include
focus groups, market analysis, cognitive
and usability laboratory and field
techniques, exploratory interviews,
behavior coding, and respondent
debriefing.
Following standard OMB
requirements, ERS will inform OMB
individually in writing of the purpose,
scope, time frame, and number of
burden hours used for each survey
improvement or development project it
undertakes under this generic clearance.
ERS will also provide OMB with a copy
of the data collection instrument (if
applicable), and all other materials
describing the project.
Authority: These data will be
collected under the authority of 7 U.S.C.
2204(a).
ERS intends to protect respondent
information under the Privacy Act of
1974, Section 1770 of the Food Security
Act of 1985, and 7 U.S.C. 2276. ERS has
decided not to invoke the Confidential
Information Protection and Statistical
Efficiency Act of 2002 (CIPSEA). The
complexity and cost necessary to invoke
CIPSEA is not justified given the nature
of the collection; the collections would
generally be conducted by ERS’
contractors and designed to be hosted in
non-government owned computer
systems, where CIPSEA compliance
could not be assured.
Specific details regarding information
handling will be specified in individual
submissions under this generic
clearance.
Estimate of Burden: Public reporting
burden for these collections of
information is estimated to average from
.5 to 1.5 hours per respondent,
depending upon the information
collection and the technique used to test
for that particular collection.
Respondents: Individuals or
households, farms, and businesses or
other for-profits.
Estimated Total Number of
Respondents: 3,630.
Estimated Total Annual Burden on
Respondents: 1,820 hours. Public
reporting burden for these collections of
information is estimated to average from
.5 to 1.5 hours per respondent,
dependent upon the survey and the
technique used to test for that particular
survey.
Copies of this information collection
can be obtained from Pheny Weidman at
the address in the preamble.
