SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: National Childhood Injury and 

Occupational Injury Survey of Farm 

Operators. 

OMB Control Number: 0535–0235. 

Expiration Date of Previous Approval: 

12/31/2011. 

Type of Request: To seek 

reinstatement of an information 

collection for a period of three years. 

Abstract: The National Childhood 

Injury and Adult Occupational Injury 

Survey of Farm Operators is designed 

to: (1) Provide estimates of childhood 

nonfatal injury incidence and 

description of injury occurring to 

children less than 20 years of age who 

reside, work, or visit farms and (2) 

describe the occupational injury 

experience of farm operators. These 

surveys are being conducted as part of 

a cooperative agreement between the 

Center for Disease Control (CDC) and 

the National Agricultural Statistics 

Service (NASS). In 2012, NASS will 

conduct the General Adult and Child 

Injury survey and will use the total farm 

population to sample from. In 2013, 

NASS will not be conducting an injury 

survey, since we will be concentrating 

on the Census of Agriculture survey 

(OMB #0535–0226). In 2014, NASS 

plans to again conduct the General 

Adult and Child Injury Survey, and this 

time, the survey will concentrate on 

minority farm operators.

General Adult and Child Injury Survey (Minority Farm Operators) ......................................................... 2013 2014 50,000 

Data will be collected by telephone 

from all 50 states. Questions will relate 

to farm injuries occurring during the 

reference calendar year. These data will 

update and enhance existing data series 

used by the National Institute of 

Occupational Safety and Health 

(NIOSH) to: (1) Establish a measure of 

the number and rate of childhood 

injuries associated with farming 

operations and study the specific types 

of injuries sustained and (2) describe the 

scope and magnitude of occupational 

injuries associated with farming 

operations. The collection combines the 

youth and occupational injury studies to 

reduce the number of contacts on the 

targeted farm population. Reports will 

be generated and information 

disseminated to all interested parties 

concerning the findings from this study. 

Authority: These data will be 

collected under the authority of 7 U.S.C. 

2204(a). Individually identifiable data 

collected under this authority are 

governed by Section 1770 of the Food 

Security Act of 1985, 7 U.S.C. 2276, 

which requires USDA to afford strict 

confidentiality to non-aggregated data 

provided by respondents. This Notice is 

submitted in accordance with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 

U.S.C. 3501, et seq.) and Office of 

Management and Budget regulations at 

5 CFR part 1320.
