SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: SuperTracker Information 

Collection for Registration, Login and 

Food Intake and Physical Activity 

Assessment. 

OMB Control Number: 0584–0535. 

Expiration Date: July 31, 2012. 

Type of Request: Revision of a 

currently approved collection. 

Abstract: SuperTracker is an Internet 

based diet and physical activity selfassessment tool which allows users to 

monitor their daily food intakes and 

physical activity information. Based on 

2010 Dietary Guidelines, the 

SuperTracker delivers nutrition 

education by allowing users to monitor 

their intake and explore ways to 

improve their food and physical activity 

choices. Motivational education 

messages are generated and tailored to 

the user’s personal assessment results. 

Individuals can use the SuperTracker 

without registration. However, all users 

may voluntarily enter and save 

information by registering with a 

username and password. The historical 

and trend data entered allows users to 

identify areas for improvement and 

reference short- and long- term changes 

to diet and physical activity behaviors. 

SuperTracker includes optional 

functions that consumers may use at 

their discretion, including a journaling 

feature to capture information for a 

selected category. Consumers may also 

post system-generated congratulatory 

and tip messages to Facebook or Twitter 

using their personal social media 

account. Through leveraging the user’s 

existing social network, the user is more 

likely to experience positive feedback 

and encouragement in achieving their 

dietary and/or physical activity goals. 

Social media functionality is provided 

as a consumer benefit but does not 

impact consumer results or reports. The 

previous online tools provided limited 

functionality and more complex 

reporting features. The revised 

SuperTracker offers streamlined 

navigation features allowing consumers 

to quickly and easily enter data for one 

or multiple days. SuperTracker 

integrates all features and functions 

found in previous CNPP online diet and 

physical activity tools into one 

application within the 

ChooseMyPlate.gov Web site. Hence, all 

access to the SuperTracker is obtained 

through the ChooseMyPlate.gov. 

Affected Public: Individual/ 

Households. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

The following total annual burden 

estimates are based on the data obtained 

from current web trend tool, Google 

Analytics from June 2011—January 

2012. Revised estimates are based on an 

increased number of visits to the Web 

site, the average time per visit and the 

increased efficiency of the tool that 

combines all functions from previous 

online assessment tools into one. 

• The number of annual visitors to 

the Web site is expected to be about 11.2 

million and they will spend 

approximately 5 minutes one time only. 

• Approximately 30% of annual 

visitors will complete a one-time 

registration, log-in and assessment for 

the revised online assessment tool. This 

information is based on data from the 

previous most frequently used online 

tool (rounded up = 3.3 million). 

• The average number of weekly 

visitors is approximately 200,000. 

• 30% of the weekly visitors return 

each week to complete tracking 

activities (approximately 60,000). 

Estimated Time per Response: For the 

SuperTracker, it will take individuals 

approximately 1 minute (.0167) to 

initially register for a system logon ID 

and password. It typically takes users 30 

seconds (.0083) to routinely login to the 

system and approximately 15 minutes 

(.25) to complete food and physical 

activity data entry log for 1 day. Based 

on Google Analytics, repeat users will 

enter data on average 3 times per week. 

The amount of time spent completing

Farm Service Agency 

Funding for the Conservation Loan 

Program; Farm Loan Programs 

AGENCY: Farm Service Agency, USDA. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: This notice announces that 

the Farm Service Agency (FSA) now has 

funding for and is accepting guaranteed 

loan applications for the Conservation 

Loan (CL) Program. Due to a lack of 

program funding for direct CLs, direct 

loan applications are not being accepted 

at this time. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Connie Holman; telephone: (202) 690– 

0756. Persons with disabilities who 

require alternative means for 

communication (Braille, large print, 

audio tape, etc.) should contact the 

USDA Target Center at (202) 720–2600 

(voice and TDD). 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On May 

13, 2011, FSA published a notice in the 

Federal Register (76 FR 27986) 

announcing that FSA was no longer 

accepting direct or guaranteed loan 

applications for the CL Program because 

of a lack of funding. 

On November 18, 2011, FSA received 

an appropriation to fund guaranteed CLs 

under the Consolidated and Further 

Continuing Appropriations Act, 2012 

(Pub. L. 112–55). Therefore, FSA has 

resumed accepting guaranteed loan 

applications for the CL Program. 

FSA is not accepting direct CL 

applications as no new funding has 

been appropriated at this time. 

Conservation projects may still be 

funded through FSA’s direct Farm 

Ownership and Farm Loan Operating 

programs for eligible applicants who do 

not qualify for the Guaranteed CL 

Program. 

Potential guaranteed loan applicants 

should contact a lender. Potential direct 

loan applicants should contact their 

FSA state or county office; office 

locations can be found at http:// 

www.fsa.usda.gov.
