SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: *Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number:* Customer Service Survey—Regulatory Program, US Army Corps of Engineers, ENG Form 5065, OMB Control Number 0710-0012. *Needs and Uses:* The Corps conducts surveys of customers served by our district offices, currently a total of 38 offices. Only voluntary opinions will be solicited and no information requested on the survey instrument will be mandatory. The survey form will be provided to the applicants when they receive a regulatory product, primarily a permit decision or wetland determination. The information collected will be used to assess whether Regulatory business practices or policies warrant revision to better serve the public. Without this survey the Corps would have to rely on less structured, informal methods of obtaining public input. *Affected Public:* Individuals or households; business or other for-profit; not-for-profit institutions; farms; or other agencies who receive permits or jurisdictional determinations for the Corps of Engineers Regulatory program. *Annual Burden Hours:* 500. *Number of Respondents:* 2,000. *Responses per Respondent:* 1. *Average Burden per Response:* 15 minutes. *Frequency:* On occasion. The Corps of Engineers is required by three federal laws, passed by Congress, to regulate construction-related activities in waters of the United States. This customer survey provides feedback on the service the public has received from the Regulatory program during their permit or jurisdictional determination evaluations. Dated: November 8, 2013.
