SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Comments
Written comments and suggestions from the public and affected
agencies concerning the proposed collection of information should
address one or more of the following four points:
(1) Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency,
including whether the information will have practical utility;
(2) Evaluate the accuracy of the agencies estimate of the burden of
the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and
(4) Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those
who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
[[Page 59115]]
technological collection techniques or other forms of information
technology, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses. ICE is
adjusting the burden figures from the 60-day notice based on better
estimates of the number of applications received.
Overview of This Information Collection
(1) Type of Information Collection: Extension of a Currently
Approved Collection.
(2) Title of the Form/Collection: Generic Clearance for the
Collection of Qualitative Feedback on Agency Service Delivery.
(3) Agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of the
Department of Homeland Security sponsoring the collection: U.S.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
(4) Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as
well as a brief abstract: Primary: Individuals or Households; Farms;
Business or other for-profit; Not-for-profit institutions; State, local
or Tribal governments; The information collection garners qualitative
customer and stakeholder feedback in an efficient and timely manner, in
accordance with the Administration's commitment to improving service
delivery. By qualitative feedback we mean information that provides
useful insights on perceptions and opinions, but are not statistical
surveys that yield quantitative results that can be generalized to the
population of study. This feedback provides insights into customer or
stakeholder perceptions, experiences and expectations, provides an
early warning of issues with service, or focuses attention on areas
where communication, training or changes in operations might improve
delivery of products or services. These collections allow for ongoing,
collaborative and actionable communications between the Agency and its
customers and stakeholders. It also allows feedback to contribute
directly to the improvement of program management. Feedback collected
under this generic clearance provides 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 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.
(5) An estimate of the total number of respondents and the time to
respond: 130,000 responses at 5 minutes (0.0833 hours) per response.
(6) An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated
with the collection: 10,790 annual burden hours.
