[FR Doc. 05–20875 Filed 10–14–05; 8:57 am] BILLING CODE 4160–01–S DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES National Institutes of Health Submission for OMB Review, Comment Request; 5 A Day Customized Survey SUMMARY: In compliance with the requirement of Section 3507(a)(1)(D) of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 for opportunity for public comment on proposed data collection projects, the National Cancer Institute (NCI), National Institutes of Health (NIH) will publish periodic summaries of proposed projects to be submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval. The proposed information collection below was previously published in the Federal Register on May 18, 2005, page 28544– 28545 and allowed 60-days for public comment. No public comments were received. The purpose of this notice is to allow an additional 30 days for public comment. The National Institutes of Health may not conduct or sponsor, and the respondent is not required to respond to, an information collection that has been extended, revised or implemented after October 1, 1995, unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. Proposed Collection: Title: 5 A Day Customized Survey. Type of Information Collection Request: New. Need and Use of Information Collection: The purpose of the 5 A Day Customized Survey is to further the development of standardized measures of consumer knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors regarding the consumption of fruits and vegetables. Specifically, the Customized Survey will allow for validation of the new ‘‘cup’’ portion sizes (consistent with the 2005 Dietary Guidelines) and identify the most efficacious short screener methods of fruit and vegetable intake. In addition, the Customized Survey will measure established predictors of fruit and vegetable consumption at the national level and explore new predictors and constructs not previously examined for fruit and vegetable consumption. The sample will be drawn from a consumer opinion panel methodology using balancing techniques to mirror the U.S. general population on a set of key demographic variables. A separate sample of African Americans will be drawn from the panel. Prior to fielding the Customized Survey, two pilot studies will be completed as the first phase of this research. Pilot respondents will be drawn from the same consumer panel and have similar demographics as respondents in the main study. A brief description of the two pilot studies follows. In pilot study 1, respondents will initially complete a brief screener questionnaire, three 24-hour dietary recalls over the phone, followed by the Customized Survey by mail. To account for diversity in eating habits, dietary recalls will be obtained for 2 weekdays and 1 weekend per respondent. The recalls will be conducted via phone by trained interviewers using the University of Minnesota’s Nutrition Data System (NDS). After completing the dietary recalls pilot respondents will be mailed the Customized Survey within 2 weeks. Fruit and vegetable consumption as assessed by the average of the three 24-hour recalls will be compared with the fruit and vegetable consumption measures from the Customized Survey. In pilot study 2, respondents will complete the Customized Survey by mail at two points in time, six to eight weeks apart. The analysis in pilot study 2 will focus on a rigorous evaluation of the psychometric properties of the Customized Survey instrument to ensure that item-level and instrumentlevel reliability and validity has been achieved before proceeding to the main data collection phase of the study. Based on the findings of the pilot studies, minor modifications may be made to the Customized Survey prior to the implementation of the main study. Frequency of response: Main study, one time response (5 A Day Customized Survey). Pilot study 1, five times (screener, three 24-hour dietary recalls, 5 A Day Customized Survey). Pilot study 2, two times (5 A Day Customized Survey at two points in time). Affected Public: Individuals. Type of Respondents: U.S. adults. The annual reporting burden is as follows: Estimated Number of Respondents: 5,875; Estimated Number of Responses per Respondent: 1, 2 or 5; Average Burden Hours per Response: .416; and Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours Requested: 2,467.90. The annualized cost to respondents is estimated at: $46,384.28. The annual reporting burden is summarized in exhibit 1 below. There are no Operating or Maintenance Costs to report.
