AGENCY:
In accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, this
notice invites the general public and
other interested parties to comment on
a proposed information collection. This
collection is an extension of a currently
approved collection. This information
collection will conduct research in
support of FNS’ goal of delivering
science-based nutrition education to
targeted audiences. This information
collection will also conduct research
that will assist FNS in identifying
effective design and implementation
approaches to use to develop and assess
grants. From development through
testing of materials and tools with the
target audience, FNS plans to conduct
data collections that involve formative
research including focus groups,
interviews (dyad, triad, telephone, etc.),
surveys and Web-based collection tools.
DATES: Written comments must be
received on or before February 19, 2019.
ADDRESSES: Comments are invited on:
(a) Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether the
information has practical utility; (b) the

Title: Generic Clearance to Conduct
Formative Research for Development of
Nutrition Education, Promotion
Materials and Related Tools, and Grants
for FNS Population Groups.
OMB Number: 0584–0524.
Expiration Date: September 30, 2019.
Type of Request: Extension of a
currently approved information
collection.
Abstract: This information collection
is based on Section 19 of the Child
Nutrition Act of 1966 (42 U.S.C. 1787),
Section 5 of the Richard B. Russell
National School Lunch Act (42 U.S.C.
1754) and Section 11(f) of the Food and
Nutrition Act of 2008 (7 U.S.C. 2020).
This request for approval of information
collection is necessary to obtain input
into the development of nutrition
education interventions for population
groups served by the U.S. Department of
Agriculture, Food and Nutrition Service
(USDA–FNS). FNS also uses this
collection to obtain input that can be
used to develop and assess grants.
Interventions need to be designed so
that they can be delivered through
different types of media and in a variety
of formats for diverse audiences.

FNS develops a variety of resources to
support nutrition education and
promotion activities. These resources
are designed to convey science-based,
behavior-focused nutrition messages
about healthy eating and physical
activity to children and adults eligible
to participate in FNS nutrition
assistance programs and to motivate
them to consume more healthful foods
as defined by the Dietary Guidelines for
Americans (DGA). This includes
education materials, messages,
promotion tools and interventions for
the diverse population served by the
Federal nutrition programs as well as
WIC, Team Nutrition, Food Distribution
and other programs.
Obtaining formative input and
feedback is fundamental to FNS’ success
in delivering science-based nutrition
messages and reaching diverse segments
of the population in ways that are
meaningful and relevant. This includes
conferring with the target audience,
individuals who serve the target
audience, and key stakeholders on the
communication strategies and
interventions that will be developed and
on the delivery approaches that will be
used to reach consumers. The formative
research and testing activities described
will help in the development of
effective education and promotion tools
and communication strategies.
Collection of this information will
increase FNS’ ability to formulate
nutrition education interventions that
resonate with the intended target
population, particularly low-income
families.
FNS also uses formative input and
feedback to determine how best to
develop and assess grants so that grant
recipients can successfully meet their
goals under these grants. To do this,
FNS confers with grant recipients to
obtain input regarding their
experiences, expectations, challenges,
and lessons learned while implementing
the grant.
Formative research methods and
information collection will include
focus groups, interviews (dyad, triad,
telephone, etc.), surveys and Web-based
data collection. The data obtained will
provide input regarding the potential
use of materials and products during
both the developmental and testing
stages, in addition to the development
of grants. Key informant interviews will
be conducted in order to determine
future nutrition education and grant
needs, tools and dissemination
strategies. This task involves collecting
a diverse array of information from a
variety of groups including: People
familiar with the target audiences;
individuals delivering nutrition

education intervention materials and
projects; program providers at State and
local levels; program participants; grant
recipients, and other relevant
informants associated with FNS
programs.
Findings from all data collection will
be included in summary reports
submitted to USDA–FNS. The reports
will describe the data collection
methods, findings, conclusions,
implications, and recommendations for
the development and effective
dissemination of nutrition education
materials and related tools for FNS
population groups. There will be no
specific quantitative analysis of data. No
attempt will be made to generalize the
findings to be nationally representative
or statistically valid. There are no
recordkeeping or third party disclosure
burden requirements.
Reporting Burden
FNS estimates the total annual burden
hours are 16,003 x 3 year approval for
a total of 48,010 burden hours for 3
years. Additionally, the total annual
responses are 34,166.66 x 3 year
approval for a total of 102,500 total
responses for 3 year approval. See the 3

1. On at least one hundred sixty-six (166)
occasions beginning on or about August 1,
2011, and continuing through on or about
January 7, 2013, Baird caused, aided, abetted,
commanded, induced and/or permitted
(‘‘caused, aided or abetted’’) the doing of an
President signed into law the John S. McCain
National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year
2019, which includes the Export Control Reform
Act of 2018, Public Law 115–232, tit. 17, subtitle
B, 132 Stat. 2208 (2018) (‘‘ECRA’’). While Section
1766 of ECRA repeals the EAA (except for three
sections which are inapplicable here), Section 1768
of ECRA provides, in pertinent part, that all rules
and regulations that were made or issued under the
EAA, including as continued in effect pursuant to
IEEPA, and were in effect as of ECRA’s date of
enactment (August 13, 2018), shall continue in
effect according to their terms until modified,
superseded, set aside, or revoked through action
undertaken pursuant to the authority provided
under ECRA.
2 The Regulations are currently codified in the
Code of Federal Regulations at 15 CFR parts 730–
774 (2018). The charged violations occurred in
2011–2013. The Regulations governing the
violations at issue are found in the 2011–2013
versions of the Code of Federal Regulations (15 CFR
parts 730–774). The 2018 Regulations set forth the
procedures that apply to this matter.

act prohibited by, or the omission of an act
required by, the Regulations. As further
alleged below, Baird caused, aided or abetted
the filing of false or misleading export
control documents, namely Shipper’s Export
Declarations and Automated Export System
filings (‘‘SED/AES filings’’), and the failure to
make required SED/AES filings, in
connection with the export or attempted
export of items subject to the Regulations.
Baird also caused, aided or abetted the export
and attempted export without the required
BIS licenses of items subject to the
Regulations and listed on the Commerce
Control List (‘‘CCL’’).
2. At all times pertinent hereto, Baird was
Chief Executive Officer (‘‘CEO’’) of Access
USA Shipping, LLC, d/b/a MyUS.com and
f/k/a Access USA Shipping, Inc. (‘‘Access’’),
a company originally registered in Florida
that he founded in 1997. Baird was directly
or indirectly Access’s primary shareholder
until on or about August 28, 2012. After a
partial sale of Access on or about August 28,
2012, Baird continued to serve as its CEO and
maintained a minority equity stake in the
company with the right to appoint two
members of Access’s board of directors. Baird
was replaced as CEO of Access in or about
September 2013. Baird’s interests, however,
were not fully divested until on or about
March 22, 2016, at which time he no longer
had an equity interest in Access or the right
to appoint board members.
3. Access provided foreign customers with
a U.S. physical address for items purchased
from U.S. merchants for ultimate export from
the United States. For a fee, Access provided
