Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, Public Law 104-13 on or after the date

    Comments regarding these information collections are best assured 
of having their full effect if received by December 26, 2024. Written 
comments and recommendations for the proposed information collection 
should be submitted within 30 days of the publication of this notice on

    An agency may not conduct or sponsor a collection of information 
unless the collection of information displays a currently valid OMB

Economic Research Service.

    Title: Foodborne Illness Valuation Survey.
    OMB Control Number: 0536-NEW.
    Summary of Collection: The Economic Research Service (ERS) will be 
conducting a national Foodborne Illness Valuation Survey. The mission 
of ERS is to provide timely research and analysis to public and private 
decision makers on topics related to agriculture, food, the 
environment, and rural America. ERS has a long history of providing 
estimates of the cost of foodborne illnesses in the United States. 
These estimates approximate the public's willingness to pay to prevent 
foodborne illnesses. This survey is designed to enhance the accuracy of 
those estimates.
    Need and Use of the Information: The purpose of this survey is to 
estimate individuals' willingness to pay to prevent the direct 
disutility from illnesses that can be foodborne. This component of 
willingness to pay is not currently included in ERS cost of foodborne 
illness estimates due to a lack of research. These estimates can only 
be obtained using surveys like the one to be fielded. Having these 
estimates will provide a more complete estimate of the value of 
preventing foodborne illnesses in the United States.
    Description of Respondents: Individuals.
    Number of Respondents: 3,000.
    Frequency of Responses: one time only.
    Total Burden Hours: 2,000.
