AGENCY: National Endowment for the Arts, National Foundation on the

ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The National Endowment for the Arts (NEA), as part of its
continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, conducts a
preclearance consultation program to provide the general public and
Federal agencies with an opportunity to comment on proposed and/or
continuing collections of information in accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995. This program helps to ensure the requested data
can be provided in the desired format, reporting burden (time and
financial resources) is minimized, collection instruments are clearly
understood, and the impact of collection requirements on respondents
can be properly assessed. Currently, the NEA is soliciting comments
concerning the proposed information collection on arts participation in
the U.S.: Clearance Request for NEA 2022 Arts Supplement to the General
Social Survey. Copies of this ICR (information collection request),
with applicable supporting documentation, may be obtained by visiting
www.Reginfo.gov.
DATES: The National Endowment for the Arts is requesting OMB's approval
of this emergency request by January 21, 2022. Written comments must be
submitted to the office listed in the address section below within 5
days from the date of this publication in the Federal Register.
ADDRESSES: Send written comments and recommendations for proposed
information collection requests within 5 days of publication of this
Notice to Sunil Iyengar at [email protected].
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The NEA is particularly interested in
comments which:
Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency,
including whether the information will have practical utility;
Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the
burden of the proposed collection of information including the validity
of the methodology and assumptions used;
[[Page 73807]]
Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the

techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submissions of responses.

Description: This request is for emergency clearance of the 2022
Arts Supplement to the General Social Survey (GSS) to be conducted by
the National Opinion Research Center on behalf of the National Science
Foundation. The Arts Supplement to the GSS will provide important data
on the impact the COVID-19 pandemic has had on recent arts
participation. The survey data will also complement data collected
through the planned 2022 Survey of Public Participation in the Arts.
The data are circulated to interested researchers, and they are the
basis for a range of NEA reports and independent research publications.
An arts supplement to the GSS was also conducted in 2012 and 2016. The
data will be made available to the public through the agency's data
archive, the National Archive of Data on Arts and Culture (NADAC).
These data will also be used by the NEA as a contextual measure for one
or more of its strategic goals.
