SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The

Tennessee Valley Authority is soliciting

comments concerning OMB approval of

a three-year generic clearance for

customer surveys designed to determine

customer demographics, preferences,

satisfaction, and feedback.

I. Background

In order to comply with the customer

consultation requirements of the

Government Performance and Results

Act of 1993 and to ensure that we are

meeting customer requirements and

expectations, TVA must conduct

periodic customer surveys to determine

preferences, satisfaction, solicit

feedback and confirm demographics.

II. Current Actions

TVA plans to request OMB approval

for a generic clearance for an undefined

number of surveys to be conducted over

the next three years. For each study that

TVA undertakes under this generic

clearance, OMB will be notified, at least

two weeks in advance, and provided

with an information copy of the

questionnaire (if one is used), which

will come from TVA’s Questionnaire

and Survey Catalog, and all other

materials describing the survey activity.

TVA plans to conduct a variety of

voluntary customer surveys of our

electricity generation customers and our

appropriated program customers. These

surveys may include website

questionnaires, written surveys,

telephone surveys, individual face-toface interviews, focus group meetings,
44744 Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 163 / Friday, August 22, 1997 / Notices

and/or large group studies. They will be

designed to gather information from a

customer’s perspective as prescribed in

Executive Order 12862, Setting

Customer Service Standards, September

11, 1993. The results will be used as

part of an ongoing process to improve

TVA’s performance.

III. Estimate of Burden

The average burden per response is

estimated to range from 2 minutes for a

web-site questionnaire to 3 hours for a

large group study. TVA estimates 4,000

annual respondents for a total of 1350

hours annually for the proposed generic

customer survey clearance.

IV. Request for Comments

Comments are invited on:

(a) Whether the proposed information

collection is necessary for the proper

performance of the functions of the

agency, including whether the

information has practical utility;

(b) The accuracy of TVA’s estimate of

the burden of the collection of the

information;

(c) Ways to enhance the quality,

utility, and clarity of the information to

be collected; and

(d) Ways to minimize the burden

related to the collection of information

on respondents, including the use of
