SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title: Generic Clearance for the Collection of Qualitative Feedback 
on Agency Service Delivery
    Abstract: The information collection activity will gather 
qualitative customer and stakeholder feedback in an efficient, timely 
manner, in accordance with the Administration's commitment to improving 
service delivery. By qualitative feedback PBGC means information that 
provides useful insights on perceptions and opinions, but the 
information requests are not statistical surveys that yield 
quantitative results generalizable to the population of interest. 
Collections with such objectives 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 non-response bias, the protocols for data 
collection, and any testing procedures that were or will be undertaken 
prior to fielding the study.
    The feedback from this information collection 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 PBGC 
and its customers and stakeholders. These collections also allow 
feedback to contribute directly to the improvement of program 
management.
    The collection of information has been approved by OMB under 
control number 1212-0066 through August 31, 2017. PBGC is requesting 
that OMB extend approval of the information collection for another 
three years without change. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a 
person is not required to respond to, a collection of information 
unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.
    On June 21, 2017 (82 FR 28363), PBGC published a notice informing 
the public that it intended to request OMB approval and soliciting 
public comment. No comments were received.
    Annually, over the next three years, PBGC estimates that it will 
conduct three activities involving about 1,630 respondents, each of 
whom will provide one response. The number of respondents will vary by 
activity: 40 for usability testing, 90 for focus groups (nine groups of 
ten respondents), and 1,500 for customer satisfaction surveys.
    PBGC estimates the annual burden of this collection of information 
as 635 hours: 2 hours per response for usability testing (total 80 
hours); 2 hours per response for focus groups (total 180 hours); and 15 
minutes per response for customer satisfaction surveys (total 375 
hours).

Deborah Chase Murphy,
Assistant General Counsel for Regulatory Affairs, Pension Benefit 
Guaranty Corporation.
