OIRA Conclusion Action: Approved without change	Conclusion Date: 07/24/1997
Retrieve Notice of Action (NOA)	Date Received in OIRA: 05/27/1997
Terms of Clearance: This information collection is approved through 7-99 under the conditions outlined in the July 18, 1997 ARS letter and the following: As agreed to by the Agency, ARS will revise their contract provisions to require the contractor to obtain addresses for the substantial majority of the universe it proposes to sample. Future OMB approval of the full scale CSFII planned in 1999 will be contingent upon a cummulative response rate in the pilot test of at least 80%. If this is not achieved, ARS will return to the previous method of in-person interviews for the main study. Any further research and/or data collection, as referenced on pg. 2, must receive approval by OMB under the PRA process. In addition, absent substantial validation which could be built into the pilot, the use of this data for pesticide, food additive and contaminants may lack practical utility. ARS shall report on validation of data for this purpose. Finally, as indicated by ARS and NCHS, the agencies will coordinate and integrate the dietary portion of NHANES and CSFII prior to the fielding of the main study.
