Demonstrations on Food Insecurity.
Form Number: Not yet assigned.
OMB Number: Not yet assigned.
Expiration Date: Not yet assigned.
Type of Request: New Collection of
Information.
Abstract: The Agriculture, Rural
Development, Food and Drug
Administration, and Related Agencies
Appropriations Act of 2010 (Pub. L.
111–80), Section 749(g), directed that
the Secretary of Agriculture shall carry
out demonstration projects to develop
and test methods of providing access to
food for children in urban and rural
areas during the summer months when
schools are not in regular session to
reduce or eliminate the food insecurity
and hunger of children and to improve
the nutritional status of children. The
Summer Electronic Benefits for
Children Household-Based
Demonstrations will carry out the
demonstration projects Congress
directed USDA to perform in this
section.1 In addition, the Act directed
the Secretary of Agriculture to provide
for an independent evaluation of the
demonstration projects using rigorous
methodologies. The Evaluation of the
Impact of the Summer Electronic
Benefits for Children Household-Based
Demonstrations on Food Insecurity will
carry out these provisions of the Act.
The evaluation of these projects is
intended to provide policymakers with
clear, rigorous and timely findings to
make decisions about potential changes
to Federal summer feeding programs
during the next Child Nutrition
reauthorization cycle. Primarily, the
evaluation of the Summer Electronic
Benefit Transfer for Children (SEBTC)
demonstrations will examine how the
provision of summer food benefits to the
households of children certified for free
or reduced-price school meals impacts
the prevalence of very low food security
among children certified for free or
reduced-price meals as well as their
nutritional status. Nutritional status will
be examined with relatively simple
measures of food choices, nutritional
behaviors and Body Mass Index (BMI).
Other effects, such as perceptions of
parents and changes in household food
supply and food expenditures will also
be considered. In addition to impact
measures, the evaluation will document
the process and challenges of
implementing the SEBTC
demonstrations and the costs of
operating the demonstrations. The
results will provide valuable
information to States considering
applying for additional demonstrations
as well as if the demonstrations lead to
policy changes. The evaluation will
gather data from up to 5 demonstration
areas in 2011. Each demonstration area
will consist of contiguous school
districts that, collectively, have 10,000
children certified for free or reducedprice school meals. The evaluation will
gather data from up to 15 demonstration
areas in 2012. The 2012 demonstration
areas will also consist of contiguous
school districts that, collectively, have
10,000 children certified for free or
reduced-price meals. In the
demonstration areas households with
children certified for free or reducedprice school meals will be divided into
treatment and control groups.
Affected Public: Individuals/
Households; State, Local and Tribal
Government; Business (for-profit).
Respondent Type: Individual schoolaged children and their parents/
guardians in each demonstration area;
Electronic Benefits Transfer (EBT)
processors and retail grocery vendors
who operate in the demonstration areas;
agencies that administer either the
National School Lunch and School
Breakfast, WIC,2 or SNAP 3 programs in

Estimated Number of Respondents:
The total estimated number of
respondents is 98,565 (32,731 in 2011
and 65,834 in 2012). Over both years
this includes: 22,059 treatment and
22,059 control parents/guardians; 8,823
attempted but incomplete parent/
guardian interviews; 22,059 treatment
and 22,059 control students (1 per
interviewed household); 400 State
agency officials from about 35 State
agencies, 400 officials from about 35
local school food authorities; 700 food
retailers and 6 EBT processors. These
sample sizes are large because the key
outcome of interest—very low food
security—is a relatively rare event; these
sample sizes are needed in order to meet
the Congressional requirement to detect
statistically significant differences in
very low food security between
treatment and control households.
Estimated Number of Responses per
Respondent: there will be one interview
per parent/guardian, one per student, 2
per food retailer, 2 per EBT processor,
and 3 per State or local official.
Estimated Total Annual Responses:
21,313.
Estimated Time per Response: The
estimated average response time is 61.2
minutes (1.02 hours). The estimated
time of response varies from 15 to 180
minutes depending on respondent
group, as shown in the table below, with
an average estimated time of 6 minutes
for non-responders to the participant
survey.
Estimated Total Annual Burden on
Respondents: The total estimated
response time is 20,654.6 hours in 2011
and 43,284.2 in 2012. See the table

Management Project EIS
Forest Service, USDA.
Notice of Intent to prepare an
environmental impact statement.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
The USDA Forest Service is
proposing to prepare an environmental
impact statement (EIS) on a proposed
action to improve forest health and fuel
conditions within the approximate
55,430-acre Jackson project area. The
project area is located approximately 60
miles to the east of Prineville, Oregon
and is bounded by Forest System Roads
2630, 12, and 42 to the north, east and
south respectively, and by the western
watershed divide between Crazy Creek
(east) and Porter, Looney, and Stupid
Creeks (west). The project area
encompasses National Forest system
lands and private lands within these
watersheds.
An analysis has been initiated that
takes a landscape approach to managing
the vegetation to meet objectives for
fuels and fire behavior and to create a
more resilient forest while addressing
and considering other resources.
Methods that would be used to reduce
tree density and hazardous fuels are:
non-commercial and commercial
thinning, and prescribed burning. The
alternatives will include the proposed
action, no action, and, if necessary,
additional alternatives that respond to
issues generated through the scoping
process. The agency will give notice of
the full environmental analysis and
decision-making process so that
interested and affected public may

Responsible Official: The responsible
official is Jeff Walter, Forest Supervisor,
Ochoco National Forest, 3160 NE 3rd
Street, Prineville, OR 97754.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background. The Paulina Ranger
District has demonstrated that there is a
need for fuels and vegetation
management activities in the project
area by comparing the existing
condition to the desired conditions
described in the Ochoco National Forest
Land and Resource Management Plan.
The existing condition of the Deep
watershed was evaluated in 2010 and
documented in the Deep Watershed
Analysis.
Purpose and Need. This project is
needed to maintain the project area in
a healthy condition as described by the
Ochoco National Forest Land and
Resource Management Plan of 1989 as
amended by the Revised Interim
Management Direction Establishing
Riparian, Ecosystem and Wildlife
Standards for Timber Sales (Eastside
Screens). The Watershed Analysis
identified that there is a shortage of
large trees, late and old structure forest;
Stream temperatures are too high and
there is a shortage of large woody debris
and hardwood plant species within
Riparian Habitat Conservation Areas;
there is encroachment of western
juniper into forest, grasslands and
shrublands; there is an increasing
presence of insects and diseases in
PO 00000
Frm 00005
Fmt 4703

forest stands; aspen clones are declining
in vigor and contain decadent overstory
trees and few to no seedlings, there are
varying amounts of conifers present and
the aspen sprout/seedling component is
unable to grow above the browse line;
about 42% of the watershed is in Fire
Regime Condition Class of 2 or 3 where
fire has been absent for more than 15
years and there is an increasing amount
of departure from the natural fire regime
with areas where juniper and pine have
encroached on shrub and grass
communities from fire exclusion; stand
density and forest fuels adjacent to
arterial Forest roads do not provide
conditions for safe ingress and egress for
public and fire fighter access in the
event of wildfire; the forest stands in the
project area have the potential to
provide wood products.
This project is needed to maintain the
vegetation within the project area in a
condition as described by the Ochoco
National Forest Land and Resource
Management Plan of 1989 as amended
by the Revised Interim Management
Direction Establishing Riparian,
Ecosystem and Wildlife Standards for
Timber Sales (Eastside Screens). This
project is needed to promote the
development of large trees and old
structure forest by reducing stand
density; promote the development of
large trees for eventual woody debris
recruitment into streams by reducing
conifer stand densities mechanically
and by fire and promote the
development of stream shading
vegetation, such as willow by reducing
conifers, mechanically and by fire, and
increase willow and other hardwood
vegetation by planting with Riparian
Habitat Conservation Areas (RHCAs);
reduce juniper encroachment into
forest, shrub and grass communities by
mechanical and fire treatments; restore
and enhance aspen stands by reducing
conifer competition and encroachment,
fencing and planting; reduce the risk of
bark beetles and impacts of mistletoe by
reducing stand density and tree canopy
layers through mechanical treatments;
change stand structure and tree canopy
