SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On 

October 30, 2012, notice was published 

in the Federal Register (77 FR 65673) 

that a request for an enhancement 

permit to take shortnose sturgeon had 

been submitted by the above-named 

organization. The requested permit has 

been issued under the authority of the 

Endangered Species Act of 1973, as 

amended (ESA; 16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.) 

and the regulations governing the 

taking, importing, and exporting of 

endangered and threatened species (50 

CFR parts 222–226). 

The Riverbanks Zoo and Garden has 

been issued a permit to continue 

enhancement activities previously 

authorized under Permit No. 1589. 

Activities include the care and 

maintenance of two captive-bred, nonreleasable shortnose sturgeon. The 

display is used to increase public 

awareness of the shortnose sturgeon and 

its status by educating the public on 

shortnose sturgeon life history and the 

reasons for the species decline. The 

project to display endangered cultured 

shortnose sturgeon responds directly to 

a recommendation from the NMFS 

recovery plan outline for this species. 

The permit does not authorize any takes 

from the wild, nor does it authorize any 

release of captive sturgeon into the wild. 

The permit is valid for five years. 

Issuance of this permit, as required by 

the ESA, was based on a finding that 

such permit (1) was applied for in good 

faith, (2) will not operate to the 

disadvantage of such endangered or 

threatened species, and (3) is consistent 

with the purposes and policies set forth 

in section 2 of the ESA. 

Dated: January 23, 2013.

SUMMARY: The Commodity Futures 

Trading Commission (‘‘Commission’’ or

Protection Act, Public Law 111–2–3 

(‘‘Dodd-Frank Act’’), found in Section 

748 of the Dodd-Frank Act. The

qualitative consumer and stakeholder 

feedback in an efficient, timely manner 

to facilitate service delivery. 

DATES: Comments must be submitted on 

or before March 29, 2013. 

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments, 

regarding the burden estimated or any 

other aspect of the information 

collection, including suggestions for 

reducing the burden. Please refer to this

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: Generic Clearance for Collection 

of Qualitative Feedback on Agency 

Service Delivery. 

Abstract: In accordance with section 

748 of the Dodd-Frank Act, the OCO 

anticipates undertaking a variety of 

service delivery-focused activities over 

the next few years which include 

consumer outreach and informationsharing with stakeholders that are 

responsive to stakeholders’ needs and 

sensitive to changes in the consumer 

market. The proposed information 

collection activity will use similar 

methods for information collection or 

otherwise share common elements, and 

provide a means to gather qualitative 

customer and stakeholder feedback in 

an efficient, timely manner. By 

qualitative feedback we mean 

information that provides useful 

information on perceptions and 

opinions. The solicitation of 

information on delivery of consumer 

services will address such areas as 

appropriate messages, effective message 

delivery methods, and current consumer 

beliefs, psychographics and social 

norms that will assist the agency in 

developing an outreach and 

communications campaign designed to 

change consumer behavior. Since these 

systems will use similar methods for 

information collection or otherwise 

share common elements, the OCO is 

proposing a generic clearance for this 

process which will allow the OCO to 

implement these systems and meet the 

obligations of the PRA without the 

delays of the normal clearance process. 

Collection methods may include focus 


tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with 
Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 18 / Monday, January 28, 2013 / Notices 5781 

groups and surveys as well as other 

relevant collection methods that meet 

the conditions appropriate for a generic 

clearance as outlined below. The OCO 

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 is intended to 

be used only internally for general 

service improvement and program 

management purposes and is not 

intended for release outside of the 

Commission (if released, the 

Commission must indicate the 

qualitative nature of the information); 

• Information gathered will not be 

used for the purpose of substantially 

informing influential policy decisions; 

and 

• 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. 

Type of Review: Generic Clearance 

Request. 

Affected Public: Individuals and 

Households, Businesses and 

Organization, State, Local or Tribal 

governments. 

Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: A 

preliminary estimate of aggregate 

burden for this generic clearance 

follows. Since the statutory mandate 

behind the OCO’s consumer outreach is 

new, the estimate of the number of 

respondents is a projection and could 

change significantly based on the 

collection method ultimately used in 

the research. 

Estimated number of Respondents/ 

Affected Entities: 240. 

Estimated average number of 

responses: 10 per year. 

Estimated total average annual 

burden on respondents: 2,400 

responses. 

Frequency of collection: once per 

request. 

Average minutes per response: 120. 

Estimated total annual burden hours 

requested: 4800 hours. 

Request for Comments 

The Commission invites comments 

on: 

• Whether the proposed collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

Commission, including whether the 

information will have a practical use; 

• The accuracy of the Commission’s 

estimate of the burden of the proposed 

collection of information, including the 

validity of the methodology and 

assumptions used; 

• Ways to enhance the quality, 

usefulness, and clarity of the 

information to be collected; and 

• Ways to minimize the burden of 

collection of information on those who 

are to respond, including through the 

use of appropriate automated electronic, 

mechanical, or other technological 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology; e.g., permitting 

electronic submission of responses.
