SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
OMB Number: 1905–0210.
Title: Generic Clearance for the
Collection of Qualitative Feedback on
Agency Service Delivery.
Abstract: The proposed information
collection activity provides a means to
collect qualitative customer and
stakeholder feedback in an efficient,
timely manner, in accordance with the
Administration’s commitment to
improving service delivery.
Qualitative feedback means data that
provide 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. This feedback also
provides an early warning of issues with
service, or focuses attention on areas
where communication, training or
changes in operations might improve
the accuracy of data reported on survey
instruments or the 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.
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.
The 60-day notice was published in
the Federal Register of August 1, 2016
at 81 FR 50492 and is available at
https://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR2016-08-01/pdf/2016-18120.pdf. EIA
proposes to increase the burden hour
estimate shown in the 60-day notice
from 15,000 hours to 15,750 hours
(5,250 hours annually) to reflect current
program needs. Below we provide EIA’s
projected average estimates for the next
three years:
Type of Review: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Affected Public: Individuals and
Households, Businesses and
Organizations, State, Local or Tribal
Government.
Average Expected Annual Number of
Activities: 10.
Average Number of Respondents per
Activity: 5,000.
Annual Estimated Number of
Responses: 50,000.
Frequency of Response: Once per
request.
Average Minutes per Response: 6.3.
Annual Burden Hours: 5,250.
An agency may not conduct or

unless it displays a currently valid
Office of Management and Budget
control number.
