Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

    The Department of Commerce will submit to the Office of Management 
and Budget (OMB) for clearance the following proposal for collection of 
information under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 
U.S.C. Chapter 35).
    Agency: National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
    Title: NOAA Customer Surveys.

    Type of Request: Regular submission.
    Burden Hours: 4,196.
    Number of Respondents: 59,100.

    Needs and Uses: This is a request for renewal of a generic 
clearance for voluntary customer surveys to be conducted by NOAA

continue to gather customer feedback on services and/or products, which 
can be used in planning for service/product modification and 
prioritization.
    Under this generic clearance, individual offices would continue use 
of approved questionnaires and develop new questionnaires, as needed, 
by selecting subsets of the approved set of collection questions and 
tailoring those specific questions to be meaningful for their 
particular programs. These proposed questionnaires would then be 
submitted through a fast-track request for approval process.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households; not-for-profit 
institutions; business or other for-profit organizations; State, Local 
or Tribal Government.
