SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Type of Request: Reinstatement,
without change, of a previously
approved information collection for
which approval has expired.
Title of Information Collection:
Generic Clearance for the Collection of
Qualitative Feedback on Agency Service
Delivery.
OMB Approval Number: 3316–0114.
Abstract: Reinstatement of this
information collection will enable TVA
to obtain qualitative customer and
stakeholder feedback in an efficient,
timely manner, in accordance with the
Administration’s commitment to
improving service delivery. By
qualitative feedback we mean
information that provides useful
insights on perceptions and opinions,
but not statistical surveys that yield
quantitative results that can be
generalized to the population of study.
This feedback will provide TVA with
insights into customer or stakeholder
perceptions, experiences, and
expectations; help TVA quickly identify
actual or potential problems with how
the agency provides services to the
public; or focus attention on areas
where communication, training, or
changes in operations might improve
TVA’s delivery of its products or
services. These collections will allow
for ongoing, collaborative and
actionable communications between
TVA and its customers and
stakeholders. It will also allow feedback
to contribute directly to the
improvement of program management.
TVA will solicit feedback in areas
such as: Timeliness, appropriateness,
accuracy of information, courtesy,
efficiency of service delivery, and
resolution of issues with service
delivery. TVA will use the responses to
plan and inform its efforts to improve or
maintain the quality of service and
programs offered to the public. If this
information is not collected, TVA will
not have access to vital feedback from
customers and stakeholders about the
agency’s services and programs.
TVA will only submit an information
collection for approval under this

generic clearance if it meets the
following conditions:
• The collections are voluntary;
• The collections are low-burden for
respondents (based on considerations of
total burden hours, total number of
respondents, or burden-hours per
respondent) and are low-cost for both
the respondents and the Federal
Government;
• The collections are noncontroversial and do not raise issues of
concern to other Federal agencies;
• Any collection is targeted to the
solicitation of opinions from
respondents who have experience with
the program or who may have
experience with the program in the near
future;
• Personally identifiable information
(PII) is collected only to the extent
necessary, and is not retained;
• Information gathered is intended to
be used only internally for general
service improvement and program
management purposes and is not
intended for release outside of the
agency (if released, TVA will indicate
the qualitative nature of the
information);
• Information gathered will not be
used for the purpose of substantially
informing influential policy decisions;
and
• Information gathered will yield
qualitative information, and the
collections will not be designed or
expected to yield statistically reliable
results or used as though the results are
generalizable to the population of study.
Feedback collected under this generic
clearance provides useful information,
but will not yield data that can be
generalized to the overall population.
This type of generic clearance for
qualitative information will not be used
for quantitative information collections
that are designed to yield reliably
actionable results, such as monitoring
trends over time or documenting
program performance.
As a general matter, information
collections will not result in any new
system of records containing privacy
information and will not ask questions
of a sensitive nature, such as sexual
behavior and attitudes, religious beliefs,
and other matters that are commonly
considered private.
Type of Affected Public: Individuals
and Households, Businesses and
Organizations, State, Local or Tribal
Governments.
Small Businesses or Organizations
Affected: Yes.
Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 10,000.

Request for Comments
TVA will make comments submitted
in response to this notice, including
names and addresses where provided, a
matter of public record. TVA will
summarize the comments and include
them in the request for OMB approval.
We are requesting comments on all
aspects of this generic clearance request,
including: (a) Whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
Burden means the total time, effort, or
financial resources expended by persons to
generate, maintain, retain, disclose or
provide information to or for a Federal
agency. This includes the time needed to
review instructions; to develop, acquire,
install and utilize technology and systems for
the purpose of collecting, validating and
verifying information, processing and
maintaining information, and disclosing and
providing information; to train personnel and
to be able to respond to a collection of
information, to search data sources, to
complete and review the collection of
information; and to transmit or otherwise
disclose the information.

Notice and request for
comments.

ACTION:

In accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, FAA
invites public comments about our
intention to request the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB)
approval to renew an information
collection. The collection involves
requesting that small on-demand
operators voluntarily provide the
number of revenue passengers that
boarded their aircraft at each airport
annually. This information is used in
determining an airport’s category and
eligibility for federal funding on an
annual basis. It is not available through
any other federal data source.
DATES: Written comments should be
submitted by October 21, 2019.
ADDRESSES: Please send written
comments:
By Electronic Docket:
www.regulations.gov (2019–0640).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Public Comments Invited: You are
asked to comment on any aspect of this
information collection, including: (a)
Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for FAA’s
performance; (b) the accuracy of the
estimated burden; (c) ways for FAA to
enhance the quality, utility and clarity
of the information collection; and (d)
ways that the burden could be
minimized without reducing the quality
of the collected information. The agency
will summarize and/or include your
comments in the request for OMB’s
clearance of this information collection.
OMB Control Number: 2120–0067.
Title: Air Taxi and Commercial
Operator Airport Activity Survey.
Form Numbers: FAA Form 1800–31.
Type of Review: Clearance of a
renewal of an information collection.
Background: The data collected
through this survey is the only source of
data for charter and nonscheduled
passenger data by Part 135 operator (air
taxis). The data received on the form
(either paper or signed electronic copy)
is then incorporated into the Air Carrier
Activity Information System which is
used to determine whether an airport is
eligible for Airport Improvement
Program funds and for calculating
primary airport sponsor apportionment
as specified by title 49 United Stated
Code (U.S.C.), section 47114. The data
SUMMARY:

Fmt 4703

collected on the form includes
passenger enplanements by carrier and
by airport. Passengers traveling on air
taxis would be overlooked entirely if
this passenger survey were not
conducted. As a result, many airports
would not receive their fair share of
funds since there is currently no other
source for this type of charter activity.
On average, approximately 100
operators respond each year, reporting a
total 1.1 million passengers. This data is
important to those airports that struggle
to meet the 2,500 and 10,000 passenger
levels and could not do so without the
reporting of the charter passengers.
Respondents: The voluntary survey is
sent through the U.S. Postal Service to
approximately 190 small on-demand
operators (certificated under Federal
Aviation Regulation Part 135) that have
reported activity in the last three years.
The form is also available on the FAA
website. Beginning with the calendar
year 2019 data, operators will be able to
access the form, electronically sign and
submit it to the FAA.
Frequency: Annually.
Estimated Average Burden per
Response: 1.5 hours per respondent.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: On
average, approximately 100 respondents
submit an annual response. The
cumulative total annual burden is
estimated to be 150 hours.
Issued in Washington, DC, on August 16,
2019.

Senior Airport Planner, Office of Airports/
Airport Planning and Environmental
