    Title: Generic Clearance for Customer Surveys.
    OMB Number: 2127-0579.
    Type of Request: Extension of a currently approved information 
collection.
    Abstract: Executive Order 12862 mandates that agencies survey their 
customers to identify the kind and quality of services they want and 
their level of satisfaction with existing services. Other requirements 
include the Governmental Performance and Results Act (GPRA) of 1993 
which promotes a new focus on results, service quality, and customer 
satisfaction. NHTSA will use surveys of the public and other external 
stakeholders to gather data as one input to decision-making on how to 
better meet the goal of improving safety on the nation's highways. The 
data gathered on public expectations, NHTSA's products and services, 
along with specific information on motor vehicle crash related issues, 
will be used by the agency to better structure its processes and 
products, forecast safety trends and achieve the agency's goals.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households are primary survey 
respondents. Businesses or other for-profit organizations, not-for-
profit institutions, Federal agencies, and State, local or tribal 
governments are other possible survey respondents.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 13,468.
    Addresses: Send comments, within 30 days, to the Office of 
Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and Budget, 
725 17th Street, NW., Washington, DC 20503, Attention: NHTSA Desk 
Officer.
    Comments are Invited On: Whether the proposed collection of 
information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of 
the Department, including whether the information will have practical 
utility; the accuracy of

the Department's estimate of the burden of the proposed information 
collection; ways to enhance the quality, utility and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and ways to minimize the burden of the 
collection of information on respondents, including the use of 
automated collection techniques or other forms of information 
technology. A Comment to OMB is most effective if OMB receives it 
within 30 days of publication.
