SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background.—On October 6, 2023, 

the Commission determined that the 

domestic interested party group 

response to its notice of institution (88 

FR 42748, July 3, 2023) of the subject 

five-year reviews was adequate and that 

the respondent interested party group 

response was inadequate. The 

Commission did not find any other 

circumstances that would warrant 

conducting full reviews.1 Accordingly, 

the Commission determined that it 

would conduct expedited reviews 

pursuant to section 751(c)(3) of the Act 

(19 U.S.C. 1675(c)(3)).2

For further information concerning 

the conduct of these reviews and rules 

of general application, consult the 

Commission’s Rules of Practice and 

Procedure, part 201, subparts A and B 

(19 CFR part 201), and part 207, 

subparts A, D, E, and F (19 CFR part 

207). 

Staff report.—A staff report 

containing information concerning the 

subject matter of the reviews has been 

placed in the nonpublic record, and will 

be made available to persons on the 

Administrative Protective Order service 

list for these reviews on November 14, 

2023. A public version will be issued 

thereafter, pursuant to § 207.62(d)(4) of 

the Commission’s rules. 

Written submissions.—As provided in 

§ 207.62(d) of the Commission’s rules, 

interested parties that are parties to the 

reviews and that have provided 

individually adequate responses to the 

notice of institution,3 and any party 

other than an interested party to the 

reviews may file written comments with 

the Secretary on what determinations 

the Commission should reach in the 

reviews. Comments are due on or before 

5:15 p.m. on November 22, 2023, and 

may not contain new factual 

information. Any person that is neither 

a party to the five-year reviews nor an 

interested party may submit a brief 

written statement (which shall not 

contain any new factual information) 

pertinent to the reviews by November 

22, 2023. However, should the 

Department of Commerce (‘‘Commerce’’) 

extend the time limit for its completion 

of the final results of its reviews, the 

deadline for comments (which may not 

contain new factual information) on 

Commerce’s final results is three 

business days after the issuance of 

Commerce’s results. If comments 

contain business proprietary 

information (BPI), they must conform 

with the requirements of §§ 201.6, 

207.3, and 207.7 of the Commission’s 

rules. The Commission’s Handbook on 

Filing Procedures, available on the 

Commission’s website at https://

www.usitc.gov/documents/handbook_

on_filing_procedures.pdf, elaborates 

upon the Commission’s procedures with 

respect to filings. 

In accordance with §§ 201.16(c) and 

207.3 of the rules, each document filed 

by a party to the reviews must be served 

on all other parties to the reviews (as 

identified by either the public or BPI 

service list), and a certificate of service 

must be timely filed. The Secretary will 

not accept a document for filing without 

a certificate of service. 

Determination.—The Commission has 

determined these reviews are 

extraordinarily complicated and 

therefore has determined to exercise its 

authority to extend the review period by 

up to 90 days pursuant to 19 U.S.C. 

1675(c)(5)(B). 

Authority: These reviews are being 

conducted under authority of title VII of 

the Act; this notice is published 

pursuant to § 207.62 of the 

Commission’s rules. 

By order of the Commission. 

Issued: October 24, 2023. 

Lisa Barton, 

Secretary to the Commission.

INTERNATIONAL TRADE 

COMMISSION 

Submission for OMB Review; 

Comment Request; Notice of Request 

for Extension of Previously Approved 

Generic Clearance for the Collection of 

Qualitative Feedback on Agency 

Service Delivery 

AGENCY: International Trade 

Commission. 

ACTION: 60-Day notice and request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: This notice announces the 

intention of the U.S. International Trade 

Commission (Commission) to request a 

three-year extension, under the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (the 

Act), of the current generic clearance for 

the Collection of Qualitative Feedback 

on Agency Service Delivery that the 

Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) previously approved. This 

collection was developed as part of a 

Federal Government-wide effort to 

streamline the process for seeking 

feedback from the public on service 

delivery. The current generic survey 

clearance is assigned OMB Control No. 

3117–0222; it will expire on March 31, 

2024. The Commission requests 

comments concerning the proposed 

information collections under section 

3506(c)(2)(A) of the Act; this notice 

describes such comments in greater 

detail in the supplementary information 

section below. 

DATES: To assure that the Commission 

will consider your comments, it must 

receive them no later than 60 days after 

publication of this notice in the Federal 

Register. 

ADDRESSES: All Commission offices are

Commission Building, 500 E Street SW, 

Washington, DC. Please note the 

Secretary’s Office will accept only 

electronic filings at this time. No inperson paper-based filings or paper 

copies of any electronic filings will be 

accepted until further notice. See

must be made through the 

Commission’s Electronic Document 

Information System (EDIS, https://

edis.usitc.gov). Persons with questions 

regarding filing should contact the 

Secretary at EDIS3Help@usitc.gov. 

Request for Comments 

The Commission solicits comments as 

to: (1) Whether the proposed 

information collection is necessary for 

the proper performance of the 

Commission’s functions, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; (2) the accuracy of the 

Commission’s estimate of the burden of 

the proposed information collection, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; (3) 

the quality, utility, clarity, and design of 

the information to be collected; and (4) 

minimization of the burden of the 

proposed information collection on 

those who are to respond (including 

through the use of appropriate 

automated, electronic, mechanical, or 

other technological forms of information 

technology (e.g., permitting electronic 

submission of responses)). To the extent 

appropriate, please cite to specific 

experiences that your firm has had with 

other governmental surveys and data 

collections. 

Summary of the Proposed Information 

Collections 

(1) Need for the Proposed Information 

Collections 

The proposed information collection 

activity provides a means to garner 

qualitative customer and stakeholder 

feedback in an efficient, timely manner. 

This qualitative feedback provides 

useful insights on perceptions and 

opinions of customers and stakeholders. 

The feedback helps the Commission 

gain understanding into customer or 

stakeholder experiences and 

expectations and provides an early 

warning of issues with service, or 

focuses attention on areas where 

communication, training or changes in 

operations might improve delivery of 

products or services. These collections 

allow for ongoing, collaborative and 

actionable communications between the 

Commission and its customers and 

stakeholders and contribute directly to 

the improvement of program 

management. 

(2) Description of the Information To Be 

Collected 

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 is not collected, vital 

feedback from customers and 

stakeholders on the Agency’s services 

will be unavailable. 

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. As a general matter, 

information collections will not result 

in any new system of records containing 

privacy information and will not ask 

questions of a sensitive nature. 

The Agency will only submit a 

collection for approval under this 

generic clearance if it meets the 

following conditions: 

• The collections are voluntary; 

• The collections are low-burden for 

respondents (based on considerations of 

total burden hours, total number of 

respondents, or burden-hours per 

respondent) and are low-cost for both 

the respondents and the Federal 

Government; 

• The collections are 

noncontroversial and do 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 will be used 

only internally for general service 

improvement and program management 

purposes and is not intended for release 

outside of the agency; 

• 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. 

(3) Estimated Burden of the Proposed 

Information Collection 

The Commission estimates that 

information collections issued under the 

requested generic clearance will impose 

an average annual burden of 350 hours 

on 1000 respondents. 

No record keeping burden is known to 

result from the proposed collection of 

information. 

By order of the Commission.
