# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

*Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number:*                     U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Customer Service Survey, ENG Form 5065, OMB Control Number 0710-0012.                

*Needs and Uses:*                     The information collection requirement is necessary for the Corps to conduct surveys of customers served by our district offices, currently a total of 38 offices. Only voluntary opinions will be solicited and no information requested on the survey instrument will be mandatory. The survey form will be provided to the applicants when they receive a regulatory product, primarily a permit decision or wetland determination. The information collected will be used to assess whether Regulatory business practices or policies warrant revision to better serve the public. Without this survey the Corps would have to rely on less structured, informal methods of obtaining public input. The data collection instrument was minimized for respondent burden, while maximizing data quality. The following strategies were used to achieve these goals: 1. Questions are clearly written, 2. The questionnaire is of reasonable length, 3. The questionnaire includes only items that have been shown to be successful in previous analyses and ease in navigation.                

*Affected Public:*                     Individuals or households; Business or other for-profit; Not-for-profit institutions; Farms; State, local, or tribal government.                

*Annual Burden Hours:*                     333 hours.                

*Number of Respondents:*                     2,000.                

*Responses per Respondent:*                     1.                

*Annual Responses:*                     2,000.                

*Average Burden per Response:*                     10 minutes.                

*Frequency:*                     On occasion.                

The Corps of Engineers is required by three federal laws, passed by Congress, to regulate construction-related activities in waters of the United States. This customer survey provides feedback on the service the public has received from the Regulatory program during their permit or jurisdictional determination evaluations.
