SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title:
Generic Clearance for Stakeholder
Feedback and Surveys as Part of FNS
Planning: Regulatory Actions, Semiannual Regulatory Agenda, Program
Changes, Research Studies, Outreach,
Training and/or Development of
Guidance.
OMB Number: 0584–New.
Expiration Date: Not yet determined.
Expiration dates are normally three
years from OMB approval of new
information collection.
Type of Request: New collection.
Abstract: The proposed information
collection provides a means to garner
qualitative and quantitative stakeholder
DATES:

feedback, feedback from state, local and/
or Tribal agencies and implementers,
feedback from program participants, and
existing administrative data, in an
efficient and timely manner.
This new FNS-wide generic
information collection request currently
does not exist and would focus on the
following:
• Discussion groups, focus groups,
stakeholder meetings, interviews and
surveys that involve other than routine
customer feedback and may involve use
of standardized questions such as focus
group discussion guides or surveys.
These focus groups, meetings, other
stakeholder interactions, and surveys
would involve stakeholders, program
participants, and state, local and/or
Tribal agencies who would potentially
provide valuable input necessary for
planning: (a) research studies, including
program evaluations such as impact or
process evaluations; (b) regulatory
actions; (c) program changes; (d)
outreach, promotion activities and/or
training for stakeholders and program
participants; (e) guidance, technical
assistance documents, questions and
answers, to be issued by FNS; and/or (f)
other necessary program or policy
analyses. The surveys would include
both regular surveys and pulse-type
surveys. The pulse-type surveys differ
in that they would provide a real-time
and reoccurring snapshot on key issues
and give FNS an immediate stream of
data to understand current program
needs.
• This generic ICR would also
encompass the ad-hoc collection of
extant, administrative data from state,
local and/or Tribal agencies that
administer the various FNS programs
and/or demonstration projects
(including but not limited to the Food
Distribution Program on Indian
Reservation demonstration projects).
These would be data that FNS knows
are in existence and that state, local
and/or Tribal agencies regularly collect
but do not necessarily report to the
Federal level. FNS is referring to data
that are readily available for a state,
local and/or Tribal agency to provide,
but that FNS wouldn’t collect on a
regular basis.
• Information gathered could
potentially yield qualitative and/or
quantitative information and, when
appropriate, may be shared outside the
Agency (along with the context and
parameters for the subject information
collection, and excluding personally
identifiable information).
• Data gathered through this
collection will be combined with
information from many other sources
