Abstract: The information collection activity provides EPA with an
opportunity to efficiently engage its customers and stakeholders by
gathering qualitative information about their current or potential
future interaction with Agency. Getting such feedback in a timely
manner is critical if the Agency is to know how and where it should
focus while seeking to improve, or expand upon, its products and
services. Following the pathway established by OMB for fast-track
generic ICRs, the Agency will submit individual requests for specific
information collections on an as-needed basis. Those requests will
describe the collection and the public burden created. The Agency will
submit a collection request for approval under this generic clearance
only if the collections are: voluntary; low burden and low-cost for
both the respondents and the federal government; noncontroversial;
targeted to respondents who have experience with the program or may
have experience with the program in the near future; and abstain from
collecting personally identifiable information (PII) to the greatest
extent possible. Information gathered will be used internally for
general service improvement and program management purposes and
released publicly only in an anonymized or aggregated fashion.
Information gathered will not be used in
[[Page 46887]]
statistical analysis intended to yield results that can be generalized
to the population of study, nor will it be used to substantially inform
influential policy decisions.
Form Numbers: To be provided in individual collection requests.
Respondents/affected entities: Individuals, businesses,
organizations, and state, local, and Tribal representatives that are
stakeholders in, consumers of, or partners in providing, EPA or EPA-
supported current or potential services and programs.
Respondent's obligation to respond: Voluntary.
Estimated number of respondents: 180,000 (total).
Frequency of response: Varies.
Total estimated burden: 45,000 hours (per year). Burden is defined
at 5 CFR 1320.03(b).
Total estimated cost: There are no expected capital or operation &
maintenance costs.
Changes in the Estimates: There are no changes or adjustments
reported in the burden or capital/O&M cost estimates.
