SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: USAID, in 

accordance with the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 

3506(c)(2)(A)), provides the general 

public and Federal agencies with an 

opportunity to comment on proposed, 

revised, and continuing collections of 

information. This helps USAID assess 

the impact of its information collection 

requirements and minimize the public’s 

reporting burden. It also helps the 

public understand USAID’s information 

collection requirements and provide 

USAID the data it requested in the 

format it prefers. USAID is soliciting 

comments on the proposed information 

collection request (ICR) that USAID 

describes below. USAID is especially 

interested in public comment 

addressing the following issues: (1) how 

USAID might enhance the quality, 

utility, and clarity of the information it 

is planning to collect; and (2) how 

USAID might minimize the burden for 

the members of USAID’s workforce who 

respond to the commuter survey, 

including by using information 

technology. Written comments USAID 

receives in response to this notice will 

be public records. 

Title of Collection: USAID Workforce 

Commuter Survey. 

OMB Control Number: XXXX. Type of 

Review: A new information collection. 

Respondents/Affected Public: 

USAID’s workforce, including 

contractor staff. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 6,500. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 1,083.33 (6,500 * 10 

mins = 65,000 mins/60 mins = 1,083.33 

hours). 

Abstract: USAID’s workforce 

commuter survey enables USAID to 

estimate the greenhouse gas (GHG) 

emissions associated with its 

workforce’s commuting and to gather 

data on its workforce’s commuting 

habits. USAID will use these data to 

inform its GHG emissions inventory, 

measure progress against its GHG 

emissions reduction targets, and inform 

and improve its commuter benefits 

program and reporting.
