    approved collections. The ICR describes the nature of the information 
    collection and its expected burden. The Federal Register Notice with a 
    60-day comment period soliciting comments on the following collection

    SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    
    Federal Transit Administration (FTA)
    
        Title: Customer Service Surveys.
        Type of Request: Revision of a currently approved collection.
        OMB Control Number: 2132-0559.
        Form(s): N/A.
        Affected Public: State and local government, Public Transit 
    Operators, Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPO's), transit 
    constituents, Transit manufacturers, and Private transit operators.
        Abstract: Executive Order 12862, ``Setting Customer Service 
    Standards,'' requires FTA to identify its customers and determine what 
    they think about FTA's service. The surveys covered in this request for 
    a blanket clearance will provide FTA with a means to gather data 
    directly from its customers. The information obtained from the surveys 
    will be used to assess the kind and quality of services customers want 
    and
    
    [[Page 10058]]
    
    their level of satisfaction with existing services. The surveys will be 
    limited to data collections which solicit voluntary opinions and will 
    not involve information that is required by regulations.
        Total Estimated Annual Burden Hours: 911.
    
    ADDRESSES: Send comments to the Office of Information and Regulatory 
    Affairs, Office of Management and Budget, 725-17th Street, NW., 
    Washington, DC 20503, Attention FTA Desk Officer.

        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 best assured of having its full effect if OMB 
    receives it within 30 days of publication.
