Title: Food Safety Survey
Type of Information Collection: New collection (Request for a new OMB Control Number)	Common Form ICR:  No
Type of Review Request: Regular
OIRA Conclusion Action: Approved without change	Conclusion Date: 10/10/1997
	Date Received in OIRA: 08/11/1997
Terms of Clearance: This collection is approved in concept only under the following conditions: (1) FDA shall outline additional steps to be taken to improve the overall response rate, including streamlining the survey substantially to minimize the burden on respondents. The estimated response rate of 65% is unacceptable. The steps taken to improve the overall response rate, as well as revisions to the survey instrument itself, shall be provided to OMB prior to conducting the survey in the field. (2) FDA shall provide OMB a copy of all pretest results conducted as part of this collection, along with a red-lined version of the revised survey. OMB notes that the final instrument was not submitted to OMB for its review until 10/10/97 which did not provide OMB sufficient time to review the revised instrument. OMB will continue to work with FDA in reviewing the revised survey instrument and will provide additional comments. (3) Once OMB approves items (1) and (2) above, FDA shall sumbit an information correction worksheet requesting an adjustment in the burden to reflect the actual burden associated with this survey.

Detailed information will be obtained about risk perception, perceived sources of food contamination, knowledge of particular micro-organisms, safe care label use, food handling practices, use of food thermometers, consumption of raw foods from animals, information sources, and perceived foodborne illness experience. The information will be used to track progress toward Healthy People 2000 objectives and to design education programs for consumers, the food industry, and the media.
