    Title: Survey of FTA Stakeholders (OMB Number: 2132-0564).
    Background: Executive Order 12862, ``Streamlining Service Delivery 
and Improving Customer Service,'' requires FTA to identify its 
stakeholders and address how the agency will provide services in a 
manner that seeks to streamline service delivery and improve the 
experience of its customers. FTA is seeking a three-year approval of an 
existing information collection that will allow FTA to collect data 
from transit agencies, states and metropolitan planning organizations. 
FTA will utilize the survey to assess how its services are perceived by 
its customers, learn about opportunities for improvement and establish 
goals to measure results. The data captured from the survey will 
provide this information and enable FTA to make improvements where 
necessary. The survey will be limited to data collections that solicit 
voluntary opinions and will not involve information that is required by 
regulations.
    Respondents: Transit agencies, States, and Metropolitan Planning 
Organizations.
    Estimated Annual Burden on Respondents: 1,875.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 469 hours.
    Estimated Total Burden Cost: $43,688.
    Frequency: Biennial.
