Abstract:
Improving Agency programs requires ongoing assessment. The Agency will collect, analyze, and interpret information gathered to identify strengths and weaknesses of current services. Based on feedback received, the Agency will identify operational changes needed to improve programs and services. The solicitation of feedback will target areas such as: timeliness, appropriateness, accuracy of information, courtesy, efficiency of service delivery, and resolution of issues with service delivery. The Agency is committed to hearing feedback from its customers and stakeholders. Responses will be assessed to identify service areas in need of improvement. If this information is not collected, the Agency will miss opportunities to obtain vital feedback from its customers and stakeholders on ways to improve its programs and services.

Short Statement:
The total responses for this information collection have decreased by 27,700 (from 127,700 to 100,000) from the previous approval, due to recent estimates gathered from the number of Fast Tracks approved over the past 3 years. The estimated total time burden for this information collection has increased by 2,242 (from 14,425 to 16,667). This increase is due to the estimated fluctuations in the collection methods used by Agency programs to receive public feedback. The overall average estimated time per response has also slightly increased.
