PEACE CORPS


Information Collection Request; Submission for OMB Review

AGENCY: Peace Corps.

ACTION: 30-Day notice and request for comments.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Peace Corps will be submitting the following information 
collection request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for 
review and approval. The purpose of this notice is to allow 30 days for 
public comment in the Federal Register preceding submission to OMB. We 
are conducting this process in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35).

DATES: Submit comments on or before March 16, 2017.

ADDRESSES: Comments should be addressed to Denora Miller, FOIA/Privacy 
Act Officer. Denora Miller can be contacted by telephone at 202-692-
1236 or email at [email protected]. Email comments must be made in 
text and not in attachments.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Denora Miller at Peace Corps address 
above.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Peace Corps has mechanisms in place to 
gather information from active Volunteers and the host country 
nationals who work and live with them. Currently, there is no such 
mechanism for collecting comprehensive information from Volunteers 
after their service ends. To fill this gap, the Peace Corps proposes to 
conduct a survey with these returned Peace Corps Volunteers (RPCVs). 
The information collected through the proposed survey will augment the 
Peace Corps' other strategic planning activities and provide 
information for its annual Performance and Accountability Report. The 
survey will be conducted by Peace Corps' Office of Third Goal and 
Returned Volunteer Services (3GL). The information collected through 
the survey will support the Peace Corps' ability to report on its 
performance, as well as to provide information to inform Peace Corps 
Operations.
    OMB Control Number: 0420-xxxx.
    Title: 2016 Returned Peace Corps Volunteer Survey (RPCV Survey).
    Type of Review: New.
    Affected Public: Individuals.
    Respondents' Obligation to Reply: Voluntary.
    Burden to the Public:
    a. Number of Respondents (first year): 25,000.
    b. Frequency of response: 1 response.
    c. Completion time: 0.33 hours.
    d. Annual burden hours: 8,333 hours.
    General Description of Collection: The information collected will 
support interpretation of performance data by the Office of Third Goal 
and Returned Volunteer Services, the Office Volunteer Recruitment and 
Selection, Peace Corps Response, the Office of Health Services, and the 
Office of Strategic Partnerships. If the information were not 
collected, long-range program planning and the ability of the Peace 
Corps to adapt its programs to the needs of those it serves would be 
negatively impacted.
    Request for Comment: Peace Corps invites comments on whether the 
proposed collection of information is necessary for proper performance 
of the functions of the Peace Corps, including

whether the information will have practical use; the accuracy of the 
agency's estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of 
information, including the validity of the information to be collected; 
and ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on 
those who are to respond, including through the use of automated 
collection techniques, when appropriate, and other forms of information 
technology.
