SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00025 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 65555 Survey on the Occurrence of Foodborne Illness Risk Factors in Selected Retail and Foodservice Facility Types (2013– 2022)—(OMB Control Number 0910– NEW) I. Background In 1998, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s National Retail Food Team initiated a 10-year voluntary survey to measure trends in the occurrence of foodborne illness risk factors—preparation practices and employee behaviors most commonly reported to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) as contributing factors to foodborne illness outbreaks at the retail level. Specifically, the survey included data collection inspections of various types of retail and foodservice establishments at 5-year intervals (1998, 2003, and 2008) in order to observe and document trends in the occurrence of the following foodborne illness risk factors: • Food from Unsafe Sources. • Poor Personal Hygiene. • Inadequate Cooking. • Improper Holding/Time and Temperature. • Contaminated Equipment/ Protection from Contamination. FDA developed reports summarizing the findings for each of the three data collection periods (1998, 2003, and 2008) (Refs. 1 to 3). Data from all three data collection periods were analyzed to detect trends in improvement or regression over time and to determine whether progress had been made toward the goal of reducing the occurrence of foodborne illness risk factors in selected retail and foodservice facility types (Ref. 4). The research obtained from these studies provides FDA a solid foundation for developing a national retail food program model that can be used by Federal, State, local, and tribal agencies to: • Identify essential food safety program performance measurements; • Assess strengths and gaps in the design, structure, and delivery of program services; • Establish program priorities and intervention strategies focused on reducing the occurrence of foodborne illness risk factors; and • Create a mechanism that justifies program resources and allocates them to program areas that will provide the most significant public health benefits. Using this 10-year survey as a foundation, FDA is proposing to conduct a new voluntary survey encompassing annual data collections over a 10-year period. The survey will E:\FR\FM\29OCN1.SGM 29OCN1
