the Centers for Disease Control and

for safe delivery of in-person and hybrid
instruction and determine if BIE schools
should include additional guidelines.
DATES: Public meetings addressing K–12
and residential facilities will be held
from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m. Eastern Time (ET)
on May 10, 2021. Public meetings
addressing post-secondary institutions

from the U.S. Department of Education
and the Centers for Disease Control and
invites stakeholders to provide input
regarding additional needs and
resources to ensure the safety and
wellbeing of students at BIE schools.
Among the items BIE is specifically
considering as it undertakes reopening
schools are:
• What is needed to ensure student
safety when using commercial
transportation services before students
travel to a residential facility and when
they travel home?
• Would you recommend that
students be vaccinated before arriving
on campus if vaccinations are available?
• What are your recommendations to
serve students that plan to attend
residential facilities and post-secondary
institutions from communities with
high rates of COVID–19?
• Are there any recommendations for
grades K–12 and residential facilities
not already addressed by ED and CDC
reopening guidance that requires
additional clarification or guidance by
BIE?
BIE-operated schools include three
categories, each of which BIE will plan
for separately:
1. Schools serving grades K–12;
2. BIE residential facilities; and
3. Post-secondary institutions
(specifically, Haskell Indian Nations
University and Southwest Indian
Polytechnic Institute (SIPI)).
The intended purpose of this
stakeholder engagement is to ensure that
BIE is meeting the needs of its students,
schools, and Tribal communities during
the COVID–19 Pandemic recovery. BIE
has invited Tribes to Tribal consultation
sessions by letter.
Public webinar sessions are scheduled

comment on new, proposed, revised,
and continuing collections of
information. This helps us assess the
impact of our information collection
requirements and minimize the public’s
reporting burden. It also helps the
public understand our information
collection requirements and provide the
requested data in the desired format.
On November 20, 2020, we published
in the Federal Register (85 FR 74374) a
notice of our intent to request that OMB
approve this information collection. In
that notice, we solicited comments for
60 days, ending on January 19, 2021. We
received no comments to that notice.
As part of our continuing effort to
reduce paperwork and respondent
burdens, we invite the public and other
Federal agencies to comment on new,
proposed, revised, and continuing
collections of information. This helps us
assess the impact of our information
collection requirements and minimize
the public’s reporting burden. It also
helps the public understand our
information collection requirements and
provide the requested data in the
desired format.
We are especially interested in public
comment addressing the following:
(1) Whether or not the collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether or not the
information will have practical utility;
(2) The accuracy of our estimate of the
burden for this collection of
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
(3) Ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and
(4) How might the agency minimize
the burden of the collection of
information on those who are to
respond, including through the use of
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submission of response.
Comments that you submit in
response to this notice are a matter of
public record. We will include or
summarize each comment in our request
to OMB to approve this ICR. Before
including your address, phone number,
email address, or other personal
identifying information in your
comment, you should be aware that
your entire comment—including your
personal identifying information—may
be made publicly available at any time.
While you can ask us in your comment
to withhold your personal identifying
information from public review, we
cannot guarantee that we will be able to
do so.

Abstract: The information collection
activity will garner 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 are not statistical surveys that yield
quantitative results that can be
generalized to the population of study.
This feedback will provide insights into
customer or stakeholder perceptions,
experiences and expectations, provide
an early warning of issues with service,
or focus attention on areas where
communication, training or changes in
operations might improve delivery of
products or services. These collections
will allow for ongoing, collaborative and
actionable communications between the
Agency and its customers and
stakeholders. It will also allow feedback
to contribute directly to the
improvement of program management.
Requests under this generic clearance
will be submitted to OMB via Form DI–
4011, ‘‘Generic Clearance for the
Collection of Qualitative Feedback on
Agency Service Delivery.’’
Feedback collected under this generic
clearance will provide useful
information, but it 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. Such data uses require
more rigorous designs that address: the
target population to which
generalizations will be made, the
sampling frame, the sample design
(including stratification and clustering),
the precision requirements or power
calculations that justify the proposed
sample size, the expected response rate,
methods for assessing potential nonresponse bias, the protocols for data
collection, and any testing procedures
that were or will be undertaken prior
fielding the study. Depending on the
degree of influence the results are likely
to have, such collections may still be
eligible for submission for other generic
mechanisms that are designed to yield
quantitative results.
Title of Collection: DOI Generic
Clearance for the Collection of
Qualitative Feedback on Agency Service
Delivery.
OMB Control Number: 1090–0011.
Form Number: DI–4011.
Type of Review: Extension of a
