SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Application for Temporary Food Establishment, DD Form 2970; OMB Control Number: 0702–XXXX. Needs and Uses: The information collection requirement is necessary for the installation of Preventive Medicine Activity to evaluate a food vendor’s ability to prepare and dispense safe food on the installation. The form, submitted one time by a food vendor requesting to operate a food establishment on a military installation, characterizes the types of foods, daily volume of food, supporting food equipment, and sanitary controls. Approval to operate the food establishment is determined by the installation’s medical authority; the Preventive Medicine Activity conducts an operational assessment based on the food safety criteria prescribed in the TriService Food Code (TB MED 530/ NAVMED P–5010–1/AFMAN 48–147_ IP). Food vendors who are deemed inadequately prepared to provide safe food service are disapproved for operating on the installation. Affected Public: Business or other for profit; Not-for-profit institutions. Annual Burden Hours: 23. Number of Respondents: 91. Responses per Respondent: 1. Average Burden per Response: 15 minutes. Frequency: On Occasion. Respondents are food vendors requesting to operate a business on a military installation or solicited by an installation command or military unit through the Army and Air Force Exchange Service (AAFES), Navy Exchange (NEX), Marine Corps Exchange (MCX), Family Morale, Welfare and Recreation (FMWR), or other sponsoring entity to operate a food establishment on the military installation or Department of Defense site. If the form is not completed during the application process, the Preventive Medicine assessment can only be conducted once the operation is set up on the installation. A pre-operational inspection is conducted before the facility is authorized to initiate service to the installation. Critical food safety asabaliauskas on DSK5VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:39 Jun 12, 2015 Jkt 235001 violation found during the preoperational inspection results in disapproval for the facility to operate. All critical violations must be corrected in order to gain operational approval; the installation command incurs the risk of a foodborne illness outbreak if a noncompliant food establishment is authorized to operate. The vendor’s application to operate is retained on file with Preventive Medicine and does not need to be resubmitted by vendors whose services are intermittent throughout the year unless the scope of the operation has changed.
