Title: Computerized Support
Enforcement Systems—NPRM.
OMB No.: 0980–0271.
Description: The information being
collected is mandated by section
454(16) of the Social Security Act (the
Act), which provides for the
establishment and operation by State
agencies, in accordance with an initial
and annually updated Advance
Planning Document (APD) approved
under section 452(d) of the Act, of a
statewide system meeting the
requirements of section 454A of the Act.
In addition, section 454A(e)(1) of the
Act requires that States create a State
Case Registry (SCR) within their
statewide automated child support
systems to include information on IV–
D cases and non-IV–D orders
established or modified in the State on
or after October 1, 1998. Section
454A(e)(5) of the Act requires States to
regularly update their cases in the SCR.

Registry (FCR) transactions where States
are encouraged, but not required, to
submit data from their SCR to the FCR.
The data being collected for the APD
are a combination of narratives, budgets
and schedules, which are used to
provide funding approvals on an annual
basis and to monitor and oversee
systems development. Child support has
separate regulations under 45 CFR
307.15 related to submitted of APDs
because the program had supplemental
authority for enhanced funding for
systems development, and has
substantial penalties for noncompliance
with the statutory deadline of October 1,
2000. This information collection
reflects the fact that 52 states and
Territories are now certified as meeting
the automation requirements of the
Family Support Act of 1988 (FSA) and
the Personal Responsibilities and Work
Opportunity Act of 1996 (PRWORA),
leaving only two States that are not yet
PRWORA systems certified and only
one state that has not submitted an
Implementation APD for compliance
with PRWORA automation. States and
Territories that opted to keep their APD
for child support systems are covered
under separate Information Collection,
OMB No. 0992–0005, for 45 CFR part 95
subpart F.
The data being collected for the SCR
is used to transmit mandatory data
elements to the FCR where it is used for
matching against other databases for the
purposes of location of individuals,
assets, employment and other child
support related activities.
Respondents: State and Territorial
Child Support Agencies.

ACTION:
Notice.
SUMMARY: The Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) is announcing
that a proposed collection of
information has been submitted to the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for review and clearance under
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
DATES: Fax written comments on the
collection of information by August 23,
2007.
ADDRESSES: To ensure that comments on
the information collection are received,
OMB recommends that written
comments be faxed to the Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs,
OMB, Attn: FDA Desk Officer, FAX:
202–395–6974, or e-mailed to
baguilar@omb.eop.gov. All comments
should be identified with the OMB
control number ‘‘0910–NEW’’ and title
‘‘Mental Models Study of Food
Terrorism Risk Awareness.’’ Also
include the FDA docket number found
in brackets in the heading of this
document.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Jonna Capezzuto, Office of the Chief
Information Officer (HFA–250), Food
and Drug Administration, 5600 Fishers
Lane, Rockville, MD 20857, 301–827–
4659.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In
compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA
has submitted the following proposed
collection of information to OMB for
review and clearance.
Mental Models Study of Food
Terrorism Risk Awareness (OMB
Control Number 0910–NEW)
The proposed information collection
will help FDA protect the public from
food terrorism by preparing the agency
to take appropriate action in the event
of a crisis. Under the Federal Food,
Drug, and Cosmetic Act of 1938, as
amended, FDA has authority to act to
protect the safety of the nation’s food
supply. Under title 42 of the Public
Health Service Act (1944), FDA has
authority to act to protect the public
health. In addition, title III of the Public
Health Security and Bioterrorism
Preparedness and Response Act of 2002
(Public Law 107–188), FDA has
authority to act to improve the ability of
the United States to prevent, prepare
for, and respond to terrorism and other
public health emergencies.

FDA has crafted and disseminated
messages intended to raise the
awareness of state and local government
agency and industry representatives
regarding food defense issues and
preparedness; but, FDA does not
currently have similar initiatives for
consumers. Extensive research exists in
disaster preparedness and in effective
communication to the public of risk or
crisis information by government or
non-government entities. However,
additional research is needed to help
FDA design communications that will
increase consumer awareness of the
potential for food terrorism and help
consumers to make good decisions in
the event of a food terrorism emergency.
The project will use ‘‘mental
modeling,’’ a qualitative research
method wherein the decisionmaking
processes of a group of consumer
respondents (described in the next
paragraph) concerning food terrorism
are modeled and compared to a model
based on expert knowledge and
experience in food terrorism. The
information will be collected via a
telephone interview concerning the
factors that influence the perceptions
and motivations related to the threat of
food terrorism. A comparison between
expert and consumer models based on
the collected information may identify
‘‘consequential knowledge gaps’’ that
can be redressed through messages or
information campaigns designed by
FDA.
Description of Respondents:
Respondents will be adult parents over
the age of 18 who have at least one child
age 4 to 13 residing in the home at least
half-time. The sample will be divided
by gender.
In the Federal Register of March 30,
2007 (72 FR 15140), FDA published a
60-day notice requesting public
comment on the information collection
provisions. No comments were received.
