The goal of this voluntary survey is to measure consumers' knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, and reported behavior about food safety and various topics related to health, nutrition, and physical activity. Data will be used to evaluate four proposed Healthy People 2030 objectives related to consumer food safety and help to evaluate and develop strategies and programs to encourage consumers to adopt healthy lifestyles through making better informed nutrition choices by using Nutrition Facts and menu labeling information.
This request for reinstatement with change combines/consolidates two previously approved ICRs: 0910-0345 and 0910-0545. This program change is a result of the efficiencies realized by the use of the methodologies to be undertaken by this combined collection and the use of telephone and web-based technologies used to conduct this survey.
Since the last approval for both ICRs in 2014 the number of responses has increased. The overall burden, however, has decreased. This is due to program changes--combining like questions and incorporating new technologies to conduct the survey.
For purposes of entering the ICR into ROCIS the ICs were combined/consolidated decreasing from eight to four.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that the collection of information encompassed by this request complies with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR 1320.8(b)(3).
