SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), Federal 
Agencies must obtain approval from the Office of Management and Budget 
(OMB) for each collection of information they conduct or sponsor. 
``Collection of information'' is defined in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR 
1320.3(c) and includes Agency requests or requirements that members of 
the public submit reports, keep records, or provide information to a 
third party. Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)) 
requires Federal Agencies to provide a 60-day notice in the Federal 
Register concerning each proposed collection of information,

[[Page 26498]]

including each proposed extension of an existing collection of 
information, before submitting the collection to OMB for approval. To 
comply with this requirement, FDA is publishing notice of the proposed 
collection of information set forth in this document.
    With respect to the following collection of information, FDA 
invites comments on these topics: (1) Whether the proposed collection 
of information is necessary for the proper performance of FDA's 
functions, including whether the information will have practical 
utility; (2) the accuracy of FDA's estimate of the burden of the 
proposed collection of information, including the validity of the 
methodology and assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance the quality, 
utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) ways 
to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents, 
including through the use of automated collection techniques, when 
appropriate, and other forms of information technology.

Customer/Partner Service Surveys; OMB Control Number 0910-0360--
Extension

    Under section 903 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (21 
U.S.C. 393), FDA is authorized to conduct research and public 
information programs about regulated products and responsibilities of 
the Agency. Executive Order 12862, entitled, ``Setting Customer Service 
Standard,'' directs Federal Agencies that ``provide significant 
services directly to the public'' to ``survey customers to determine 
the kind and quality of services they want and their level of 
satisfaction with existing services.'' FDA is seeking OMB clearance to 
conduct a series of surveys to implement Executive Order 12862. 
Participation in the surveys is voluntary. This request covers 
customer/partner service surveys of regulated entities, such as food 
processors; cosmetic drug, biologic and medical device manufacturers; 
consumers; and health professionals. The request also covers 
``partner'' (State and local governments) customer service surveys.
    FDA will use the information from these surveys to identify 
strengths and weaknesses in service to customers/partners and to make 
improvements. The surveys will measure timeliness, appropriateness and 
accuracy of information, courtesy and problem resolution in the context 
of individual programs.
    FDA estimates conducting 15 customer/partner service surveys per 
year, each requiring an average of 15 minutes for review and 
completion. We estimate respondents to these surveys to be between 100 
and 20,000 customers. Some of these surveys will be repeats of earlier 
surveys for purposes of monitoring customer/partner service and 
developing long-term data.
    FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as 
follows:
