Written comments and recommendations for the proposed information collection should be submitted within 30 days of the publication of this notice on the following website                     *www.reginfo.gov/​public/​do/​PRAMain*.

## Food Safety and Inspection Service

*Title:*                     Small and Very Small Establishment Outreach Survey.                

*OMB Control Number:*                     0583-NEW.                

*Summary of Collection:*                     FSIS has been delegated the authority to exercise the functions of the Secretary (7 CFR 2.18 and 2.53), as specified in the Federal Meat Inspection Act (FMIA) (21 U.S.C. 601,                     *et seq.*), the Poultry Products Inspection Act (PPIA) (21 U.S.C. 451,                     *et seq.*), and the Egg Products Inspection Act (EPIA) (21 U.S.C. 1031,                     *et seq.*). These statutes mandate that FSIS protect the public by verifying that meat, poultry, and egg products are safe, wholesome, and properly labeled.                

*Need and Use of the Information:*                     FSIS plans to use a multi-language survey to solicit feedback from small and very small establishment owners to ascertain how FSIS can better service the needs of small and very small establishments and improve outreach to them. This survey is one of many ways FSIS is working to bring equity—that is, consistent and systematic treatment of all individuals in a fair, just, and impartial manner, including individuals who belong to communities that often have been denied such treatment—to small and very small establishments. Results will inform the Agency on ways to improve engagement with, and outreach to, small and very small establishments, particularly those in underrepresented communities. Without this study, FSIS could lack useful information that would help the Agency better service the needs of small and very small establishments.                

*Description of Respondents:*                     Business or other for-profit.                

*Number of Respondents:*                     5,000.                

*Frequency of Responses:*                     Reporting: On occasion.                

*Total Burden Hours:*                     168.
