FEDERAL EMERGENCY

MANAGEMENT AGENCY

Agency Information Collection

Activities: Proposed Collection;

Comment Request

ACTION: Notice and request for

comments.

SUMMARY: The Federal Emergency

Management Agency (FEMA), as part of

its continuing effort to reduce

paperwork and respondent burden,

invites the general public and other

Federal agencies to take this

opportunity to comment on proposed

revised information collections. In

accordance with the Paperwork

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

3506(c)(2)(A)), this notice seeks

comments concerning FEMA’s use of

surveys to collect disaster related

information. FEMA will use various

modes of data collection including:

mailed questionnaires, phone surveys,

and computerized surveys. The survey

respondents will include individual

disaster applicants, state and local

government officials, voluntary agency

officials, and officials from other

Federal agencies involved in delivering

disaster assistance.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: These

surveys are conducted in response to

Executive Order 12862 which requires

that ‘‘all executive departments and

agencies that provide significant

services directly to the public’’ meet

established customer service standards

and to ‘‘survey customers to determine

the kind and quality of services they

want and their level of satisfaction with

existing services.’’

Collection of Information

Title: FEMA Disaster Assistance and

Operations Customer Satisfaction

Surveys.

Type of Information Collection:

Revision of a currently approved

collection.

OMB Number: 3067–0256.

Abstract. The surveys provide FEMA

with information about customer

satisfaction and program effectiveness.

The surveys help interpret the effects of

disaster-related policy changes or

innovations. The survey is also used to

measure trends and patterns in

customer satisfaction and program

effectiveness over time. FEMA will use

various modes of data collection

including: mailed questionnaires, phone

surveys, and computerized surveys.

Phone surveys of individual applicants

may be conducted daily and written

surveys will be conducted after every

presidentially declared disaster for

individual assistance (the average

number of declared disasters per year is

50). The survey respondents will

include individual disaster applicants,

state and local government officials,

voluntary agency officials, and officials

from other Federal agencies involved in

delivering disaster assistance. FEMA

will randomly sample individual

disaster applicants and will survey the

entire universe of state and local

government officials, voluntary agency

officials. Officials from other Federal

agencies involved in delivering disaster

assistance also will be surveyed.

Affected Public: Individuals or

households, business or other for-profit

institutions, not-for-profit institutions,

Federal Government, state, local, or

tribal government. It is important to

note that FEMA does not solicit survey

responses from businesses or other forprofit institutions, but it is possible that

an individual applicant sampled will

respond as a business owner.

Estimated Total Annual Burden

Hours. 23,480. See calculations in table
