Short Statement:
This is a request for a revision and extension of the currently approved collection for OMB Number 0584-0646, Farm to School Census and Comprehensive Review, renamed to 2023 Farm to School Census. This information collection is currently approved with 25,061 burden hours and 227,965 responses, which was used for the 2019 Census and distributor interviews. To accommodate administration of the 2023 Census, we are requesting 18,690 total burden hours and 272,016 responses. This represents 6,371 fewer burden hours and 44,051 more responses more than the initially approved request. The removal of the distributor interviews, a thank you email, and a request to departments of agriculture to send a reminder email are program changes contribute to a decrease in burden hours by 544 hours. Adjustments to the respondent sample sizes and anticipated response rates contribute to a decrease in burden hours by 5,827 hours. The number of responses is more than in the initially approved request due to the adjustment in anticipated response rates; we expect lower response rates to initial reminder emails and thus will send more reminder emails.

$22,297
