SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Executive 

Order 12862 directs Federal agencies to 

provide service to the public that 

matches or exceeds the best service 

available in the private sector. In order 

to work continuously to ensure that our 

programs are effective and meet our 

customers’ needs, the Federal 

Emergency Management Agency 

(FEMA) (hereafter ‘‘the Agency’’) seeks 

to obtain OMB approval of a generic 

clearance to collect qualitative feedback 

on our service delivery. By qualitative 

feedback, we mean information that 

provides useful insights on perceptions 

and opinions but not statistical surveys 

that yield quantitative results that can 

be generalized to the population of 

study. 

Collection of Information 

Title: Generic Clearance for the 

Collection of Qualitative Feedback on 

Agency Service Delivery. 

Type of Information Collection: 

Extension, without change, of a 

currently approved information 

collection. 

OMB Number: 1660–0130. 

FEMA Forms: None. 

Abstract: The information collection 

activity will garner qualitative customer 

and stakeholder feedback in an efficient, 

timely manner, in accordance with the 

Administration’s commitment to 

improving service delivery. This 

feedback will provide insights into 

customer or stakeholder perceptions, 

experiences, and expectations; provide 

an early warning of issues with service; 

or focus attention on areas where 

communication, training, or changes in 

operations might improve delivery of 

products or services. These collections 

will allow for ongoing, collaborative, 

and actionable communications 

between the Agency and its customers 

and stakeholders. It will also allow 

feedback to contribute directly to the 

improvement of program management. 

Feedback collected under this generic 

clearance will provide useful 

information, but it will 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. Depending on the 

degree of influence the results are likely 

to have, such collections may still be 

eligible for submission for other generic 

mechanisms that are designed to yield 

quantitative results. 

Affected Public: Individuals or 

Households. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

1,075,000. 

Estimated Number of Responses: 

1,075,000. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden 

Hours: 268,783.
