SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This collection is in accordance with 
Executive Order 12862 (September 11, 1993), that requires all Federal 
agencies to survey customers to determine the kind and quality of 
services they want and their level of satisfaction with existing 
services. In addition, the Government Performance and Results Act 
(GPRA) requires agencies to set missions and goals and measure 
performance against them. FEMA will fulfill these requirements, in 
part, by collecting customer service information through a survey of 
the FEMA Recovery Division's external customers.

Collection of Information

    Title: Federal Emergency Management Agency Housing Inspection 
Services Customer Satisfaction Survey.
    Type of Information Collection: Revision of a currently approved 
information collection.
    OMB Number: 1660-0102.
    Form Titles and Numbers: FEMA Form 007-0-1, Federal Emergency 
Management Agency Housing Inspection Services Customer Satisfaction 
Survey.
    Abstract: FEMA Housing Inspection Services contracts inspectors to 
assess dwelling damage and verify personal information of applicants 
for FEMA disaster assistance in federally declared disasters areas. 
Because FEMA needs to evaluate the inspectors' performance, FEMA 
conducts surveys to measure the satisfaction level of the applicants 
with their inspection experience. FEMA Inspection Services Managers and 
Task Monitors generally use the survey results to gauge and make 
improvements to disaster services that increase customer satisfaction 
and program effectiveness. The information is shared with Regional 
staff specific to the federal declaration for which the survey is 
conducted.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 2,541 burden hours.
