RAILROAD RETIREMENT BOARD
Proposed Collection; Comment
Request
Summary: In accordance with the
requirement of Section 3506 (c)(2)(A) of
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
which provides opportunity for public
comment on new or revised data
collections, the Railroad Retirement
Board (RRB) will publish periodic
summaries of proposed data collections.
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the proposed information collection is
necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the agency, including
whether the information has practical
utility; (b) the accuracy of the RRB’s
estimate of the burden of the collection
of the information; (c) ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (d)
ways to minimize the burden related to
the collection of information on
respondents, including the use of
automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
Title and purpose of information
collection: Voluntary Customer Surveys
in Accordance with E.O. 12862; OMB
3220–0192.
In accordance with Executive Order
12862, the Railroad Retirement Board
(RRB) conducts a number of customer
surveys designed to determine the kinds
and quality of services our beneficiaries,
claimants, employers and members of
the public want and expect, as well as
their satisfaction with existing RRB
services. The information collected is
used by RRB management to monitor
customer satisfaction by determining to
what extent services are satisfactory and
where and to what extent services can
be improved. The surveys are limited to
data collections that solicit strictly
voluntary opinions, and do not collect
information which is required or
regulated. The information collection,
which was first approved by the Office
of Management and Budget (OMB) in
1997, provides the RRB with a generic
clearance authority. This generic
authority allows the RRB to submit a
variety of new or revised customer
