OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT

 
Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request for Review of a New 
Information Collection

AGENCY: Office of Personnel Management.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Public 
Law 104-13, May 22, 1995), this notice announces that the Office of 
Personnel Management (OPM), Office of Human Resource Development, 
submitted to the Office of Management and Budget a request for review 
of a new information collection instrument. OPM is committed to 
improving its programs and assuring that the training and assistance 
needs of client agencies are met. Our website (http://www.opm.gov/hrd) 
is instrumental in providing widespread access to information on human 
resource development programs, practices, and policies to our client 
agencies. In order to determine our success, OPM needs to learn what 
constituents think about the content of the website and its 
effectiveness. We're Listening--A Survey of the OHRD Website is 
designed for this purpose.
    This is a new information collection instrument; therefore, an 
estimate of how many will be completed annually is not possible. The 
OHRD website averages over 30,000 hits per week. The survey should take 
a maximum of 10 minutes to complete.
    The annual estimated burden is 5,000 hours.
    Comments are invited on:

--Whether this collection of information is necessary for the proper 
performance of functions of the Office of Personnel Management, and 
whether it will have practical utility;
--Whether our estimate of the public burden of this collection is 
accurate, and based on valid assumptions and methodology; and
--Ways in which we can minimize the burden of the collection of 
information on those who are to respond, through use of the appropriate 
technological collection techniques or other forms of information 
technology.
