Abstract:
This generic clearance covers a variety of surveys that will provide valuable statistics to sponsoring cooperators. These data are needed by the cooperators in time frames that make individual clearances impractical. This generic clearance will go through the regular clearance process at the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) with a 60-day notice and a 30-day notice as part of the 120-day review period. This generic clearance package describes the general scope of the surveys, their quick turnaround time, their length, size of sample, sample design, and some typical topics. Each individual survey will go into the clearance process with an abbreviated clearance package that will justify the particular content of the survey, describe the sample design, the timeline for the survey activities, and the questionnaire. The review period for each individual survey is approximately 45 days, including a 30-day Federal Register notice period. OMB will provide comments as soon after the end of the 30-day notice period as possible. This generic clearance approval is for a three-year period.
