SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), a Federal
agency must receive approval from the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) before it collects certain
information from the public and a
person is not required to respond to a
collection of information by a Federal
agency unless the collection displays a
valid OMB control number. In
compliance with these requirements,
this notice announces that the following
information collection request will be
submitted OMB.
Title: Generic Clearance for the
Collection of Qualitative Feedback on
Agency Service Delivery.
OMB Control Number: 2127–0682.
Form Number: To be determined by
specific collections.
Type of Request: Reinstatement of a
previously approved information
collection.
Type of Review Requested: Regular.
Length of Approval Requested: Three
years from date of approval.
Summary of the Collection of
Information: Executive Order 12862
directs Federal agencies to provide the
highest quality service possible to the
public. This proposed information
collection provides a means to garner
qualitative stakeholder feedback in an
efficient, timely manner, in accordance
with the Administration’s commitment
to improving service delivery.
This feedback collected through this
information collection will provide
insights into stakeholder perceptions,

Frm 00139

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

52491

experiences and expectations; provide
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. The feedback will
allow for ongoing, collaborative and
actionable communication between the
Agency and its stakeholders. This
information collection will also allow
feedback to contribute directly to the
improvement of program management.
The Agency will only submit a
collection for approval under this
generic clearance if it meets the
following conditions:
• The collection is voluntary;
• The collection is low-burden for
respondents (based on considerations of
total burden hours, total number of
respondents, or burden-hours per
respondent) and is low-cost for both the
respondents and the Federal
Government;
• The collection is non-controversial
and does 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 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, the agency must
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; 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 it does 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 to
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.
As a general matter, information
collections under this request 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
Description of the Need for the
Information and Proposed Use of the
Information: Improving agency
programs requires ongoing assessment
of service delivery—systematic review
of the operation of a program compared
to a set of explicit or implicit
standards—as a means of contributing to
the continuous improvement of those
programs. The Agency will collect,
analyze, and interpret information
gathered through this generic clearance

to identify strengths and weaknesses of
current services and make
improvements in service delivery based
on that feedback. The solicitation of
feedback will target areas such as:
timeliness, appropriateness, accuracy of
information, courtesy, efficiency of
service delivery, and resolution of
issues with service delivery. Responses
will be assessed to plan and inform
efforts to improve or maintain the
quality of service offered to the public.
If this information were not collected,
vital feedback from stakeholders on the
Agency’s services would be unavailable
and the Agency would not know if
adjustments would be warranted.
60-Day Notice: A Federal Register
notice with a 60-day comment period
soliciting public comments on the
following information collection was
published on June 26, 2025 (90 FR
27375). No comments were received
during after the 60 days of publication.
Affected Public: Individuals and
Households, Businesses and
Organizations, State, Local or Tribal
Government.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
17,315.
Frequency: On Occasion, per request.
Estimated Number of Responses:
17,315.

Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 1,795.
The 1,745 annual burden hours
requested are based on the number of
collections we expect to conduct over
the requested period for this clearance.
A variety of instruments will be used
to collect information from respondents
including satisfaction surveys, focus
groups, small group discussions, and
usability studies. The estimated 1,795
annual burden hours are based on the
number of anticipated collections over
the requested period for this clearance.
It is expected that the primary
respondents for these collections are
state and local workers. To calculate the
opportunity cost associated with this
submission, NHTSA estimated the total
opportunity costs associated with these
burden hours by looking at the average
wage for state and local workers. The
Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS)
estimates that the average hourly wage
for state and local workers is $37.09/
hour. The estimated annual opportunity
cost is approximately $43,764.15 and
the total three-year opportunity cost is
approximately $131,292.45. Table 1
below outlines the expected collections
and the corresponding estimated annual
burden hours and opportunity costs.
