DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES

SUMMARY: Under the provisions of Section 3507(a)(1)(D) of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has
submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request for
review and approval of the information collection listed below. This
proposed information collection was previously published in the Federal

days for public comment. No public comments were received. The purpose
of this notice is to allow an additional 30 days for public comment.
The NIH may not conduct or sponsor, and the respondent is not required
to respond to, an information collection that has been extended,
revised, or implemented on or after October 1, 1995, unless it displays
a currently valid OMB control number.
Direct Comments to OMB: Written comments and/or suggestions
regarding the item(s) contained in this notice, especially regarding
the estimated public burden and associated response time, should be

Expiration Date 1/31/2015, EXTENSION, National Institutes of Health

Need and Use of Information Collection: There are no changes being
requested for this submission. The information collection activity will
garner qualitative customer and stakeholder feedback in an efficient,
timely manner, in accordance with the Administration's commitment to
improving service delivery. This generic will provide information about
the NIH Institutes and Centers customer or stakeholder perceptions,
experiences and expectations, provide an early warning of issues with
service, or focus attention on areas where communication, training, or
changes in operations might improve delivery of products or services.
It will also allow feedback to contribute directly to the improvement
of program management. Feedback collected under this generic clearance
will provide useful information but it will not yield data that can be
generalized to the overall population.
OMB approval is requested for 3 years. There are no costs to
respondents other than their time. The total estimated burden hours are
49,358.
