Food and Nutrition Service
Title: FNS Generic Clearance for the
FNS Fast Track Clearance for the
Collection of Routine Customer
Feedback.
OMB Control Number: 0584–0611.
Summary of Collection: Under the
Government Service Delivery
Improvement Act (GSDIA), along with
the OMB Circular A–11, Section 280
Implementation, agencies are obligated
to continually improve the services they
provide the public and to collect
qualitative and quantitative data from
the public to do so. The Food and
Nutrition Service (FNS) seeks to obtain
OMB approval for the extension of a
generic clearance to collect qualitative
feedback on our delivery of services. 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.
Need and Use of the Information:
This feedback will continue to: (1)
provide insights into customer or
stakeholder perceptions, experiences
and expectations, (2) provide an early
warning of issues with service and, (3)
focus attention on areas where
communication, training or changes in
operations might improve delivery of
products or services. This collection
allows for ongoing, collaborative, and
actionable communications between the
Agency and its customers and
stakeholders. It also allows feedback to
contribute directly to the improvement
of program management.
The solicitation of feedback targets
areas such as: timeliness,
appropriateness, accuracy of
information, courtesy, efficiency of
service delivery, and resolution of
issues with service delivery. Responses
are assessed to plan and inform efforts
to improve or maintain the quality of
service offered to the public. If this
information is not collected, vital
feedback from customers and
stakeholders on the Agency’s services
will not be available.
Description of Respondents:
Individuals and Households, Businesses
and Organizations, State, Local and/or
Tribal Government.
Number of Respondents: 42,500.

DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
Submission for OMB Review;
Comment Request
The Department of Agriculture will
submit the following information
collection request to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and clearance under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. Chapter 35). Comments are
invited on: (1) 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; (2) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection, 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)
ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on
respondents, including through the use
of automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
Comments must be received by
December 22, 2025 to be assured of
consideration. Written comments and
recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be
submitted within 30 days of the
publication of this notice at
www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain.
Find this particular information
collection by selecting ‘‘Currently under
30-day Review—Open for Public
Comments’’ or by using the search
function.
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid OMB
control number. Individuals are not
required to respond to a collection of
information unless it displays a valid
OMB control number.
National Agricultural Statistics Service
(NASS)
Title: Cooperator Funded Chemical
Use Surveys—Substantive Change.
OMB Control Number: 0535–0273.
Summary of Collection: The National
Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) is
authorized under 7 U.S.C. 2204 to
collect and preserve agricultural
information, including through the
collection of statistics. NASS’s mission

is to provide timely, accurate, and
useful statistics on agricultural
production, economics, and
environmental practices. To fulfill this
mission, NASS conducts a variety of
surveys that track changes in
agricultural practices over time.
NASS is submitting a substantive
change request to revise the currently
approved information collection for the
Cooperator Funded Chemical Use
Surveys. This revision pertains
specifically to the 2026 Minnesota
Pesticide and Fertilizer Survey. While
the overall purpose and scope of the
survey remain unchanged, several
questionnaire items have been
reworded, clarified, or replaced to
improve data quality and respondent
comprehension. These updates are
designed to enhance the accuracy and
usability of the data without increasing
respondent burden. The revised
questionnaire will be used for phone
enumeration beginning in February
2026, as requested by the sponsoring
agency.
Need and Use of the Information: The
proposed changes will simplify survey
questions for respondents and better
align the data collected with future
analytical needs. The information
supports agricultural policy
development, environmental
monitoring, and resource management.
Description of Respondents: Farms
and Ranches.
Number of Respondents: 24,200.
Frequency of Responses: Reporting:
Once per year.
Total Burden Hours: 11,571.

comment on proposed, and continuing
information collections, which helps us
assess the impact of our information
collection requirements and minimize
the public’s reporting burden. Public
comments were previously requested
via the Federal Register on June 27,
2025 during a 60-day comment period.
This notice allows for an additional 30
days for public comments.
Agency: U.S. Census Bureau,
Department of Commerce.
Title: Survey of Construction
Questionnaire for the Building Permit
Official (SOC–QBPO).
OMB Control Number: 0607–0125.
Form Number(s): SOC–QBPO.
Type of Request: Regular submission,
Request for an Extension, without
Change, of a Currently Approved
Collection.
Number of Respondents: 1,000.
Average Hours per Response: 15
minutes.
Burden Hours: 250.
Needs and Uses: The U.S. Census
Bureau is requesting an extension of the
currently approved collection for the
Survey of Construction Questionnaire
for the Building Permit Official (SOC–
QBPO). The information collected on
the SOC–QBPO is necessary to carry out
the sampling for the Survey of Housing
Starts, Sales and Completions (OMB
number 0607–0110), also known as the
Survey of Construction (SOC).
Government agencies and private
companies use statistics from the SOC
to monitor and evaluate the large and
dynamic housing construction industry.
The SOC–QBPO is an electronic
questionnaire. The field representatives
(FRs) either call or visit the respondents
to enter their survey responses into a
laptop computer using the Computer
Assisted Personal Interviewing (CAPI)
software formatted for the SOC–QBPO.
The overall length of the interview will
not change, and the sample size will
only receive a minor downward
adjustment.
The Census Bureau FRs use the SOC–
QBPO to obtain information on the
operating procedures of a permit office.
This enables them to locate, classify,
list, and sample building permits for
residential construction. These permits
are used as the basis for the sample
selected for SOC. The Census Bureau
also uses the information to verify and
update the geographic coverage of
permit offices.
Failure to collect this information
would make it difficult, if not
impossible, to accurately classify and
sample building permits for the SOC.
Data for two principal economic
indicators are produced from the SOC:
New Residential Construction (housing

starts and housing completions) and
New Residential Sales. Government
agencies use these statistics to evaluate
economic policy, measure progress
towards the national housing goal, make
policy decisions, and formulate
legislation. For example, the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve
System uses data from this survey to
evaluate the effect of interest rates in
this interest-rate sensitive area of the
economy. The Bureau of Economic
Analysis (BEA) uses the data in
developing the Gross Domestic Product
(GDP). The private sector and other data
users from Department of Housing and
Urban Development (HUD) and the
National Association of Home Builders
(NAHB) use the information for
estimating the demand for housing,
building materials and the many
products used in new housing and to
schedule production, distribution, and
sales efforts. The financial community
uses the data to estimate the demand for
short-term (construction loans) and
long-term (mortgages) borrowing.
Affected Public: State, Local, or Tribal
government.
Frequency: Annually.
Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary.
Legal Authority: Title 13, United
States Code, Sections 131 and 182.

may be viewed at www.reginfo.gov.

Department of Commerce collections

Written comments and
recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be
