Title: Third Grade Follow-up to the
Heat Start Impact Study.
OMB No.: 0970–0229.
Description: The Administration for
Children and Families (ACF) within the
Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS) is requesting comments
on plans to implement a third grade
follow-up to the Head Start Impact
Study. This study will collect
information for determining, on a
national basis, how Head Start affects
outcomes in the third grade for children
who participated in the program as
compared to children not enrolled in
Head Start and to determine under
which conditions Head Start Works best
and for which children.
The Head Start Impact Study was
longitudinal study that involved
approximately 5,000 first-time-enrolled,
three- and four-year-old preschool
children across 84 nationally
representative grantee/delegate agencies
(in communities where there were more
eligible children and families than can
be served by the program). The
participating children were randomly
assigned to either a Head Start group
(that could enroll in Head Start services)
or a control group (that could not enroll
in Head Start services but could enroll
in other available services selected by
their parents). Data collection for the
study began in the fall of 2002 and
extended through spring 2006.
It is the intention of the
Administration for Children and
Families to examine outcomes for this
sample of children and families during
the spring of the children’s third grade
year. Data will be collected in the spring
of 2007 (for the four-year-old cohort)
and the spring of 2008 (for the threeyear-old cohort). The domains of
development to be assessed include
demographic characteristics of the
children and families, as well as
children’s cognitive development,
school achievement and adjustment,
socio-emotional functioning, heath and
access to health care, and relationships
with peers. Information will also be
collected on parents’ involvement in
educational activities, mental health
and well-being, and monitoring and
other parenting practices, and
information related to the characteristics
and quality of the schools and
classrooms that children attend.
Respondents: Individuals or
households and school districts
(principals and teachers).

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (the
PRA), Federal agencies are required to
publish notice in the Federal Register
concerning each proposed collection of
information, including each proposed
extension of an existing collection of
information, and to allow 60 days for
public comment in response to the
notice. This notice solicits comments on
extending OMB approval on the existing
recordkeeping requirements for this
information collection, regarding animal
proteins prohibited in ruminant feed.
DATES: Submit written or electronic
comments on the collection of
information by February 2, 2007.
ADDRESSES: Submit electronic
comments on the collection of
information to: https://www.fda.gov/
dockets/ecomments. Submit written
comments on the collection of
information to the Division of Dockets
Management (HFA–305), Food and Drug
Administration, 5630 Fishers Lane, rm.
1061, Rockville, MD 20852. All
comments should be identified with the
docket number found in brackets in the
heading of this document.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Denver Presley, Jr., Office of the Chief
Information Officer (HFA–250), Food
and Drug Administration, 5600 Fishers
Lane, Rockville, MD 20857, 301–827–
1472.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), Federal
agencies must obtain approval from the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for each collection of
information they conduct or sponsor.
‘‘Collection of information’’ is defined
in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR
1320.3(c) and includes agency requests
or requirements that members of the
public submit reports, keep records, or

provide information to a third party.
Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44
U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)) requires Federal
agencies to provide a 60-day notice in
the Federal Register concerning each
proposed collection of information,
including each proposed extension of an
existing collection of information,
before submitting the collection to OMB
for approval. To comply with this
requirement, FDA is publishing notice
of the proposed collection of
information set forth in this document.
With respect to the following
collection of information, FDA invites
comments on these topics: (1) Whether
the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
of FDA’s functions, including whether
the information will have practical
utility; (2) the accuracy of FDA’s
estimate of the burden of the proposed
collection of information, including the
validity of the methodology and
assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (4)
ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on
respondents, including through the use
of automated collection techniques,
when appropriate, and other forms of
information technology.

Prohibited in Ruminant Feed—21 CFR

Number 0910–0339)—Extension
This information collection was
established because epidemiological
evidence gathered in the United
Kingdom suggested that bovine
spongiform encephalopathy (BSE), a
progressively degenerative central
nervous system disease, is spread to
ruminant animals by feeding protein
derived from ruminants infected with
BSE. This regulation places general
requirements on persons that
