Abstract:
This is a request for a generic clearance for voluntary customer surveys to be conducted by NOAA program offices to determine whether their customers are satisfied with the services and/or products they are receiving and whether they have suggestions as to how the services/products may be improved or made more useful. NOAA is not seeking approval for a NOAA-wide customer satisfaction survey. Under this generic clearance, individual offices would develop questionnaires by selecting subsets of the approved collection questions. The proposal would then be forwarded through NOAA and Department of Commerce management.
