SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Application for Temporary
Food Establishment, DD Form 2970; OMB Control Number: 0702-XXXX.
Needs and Uses: The information collection requirement is necessary
for the installation of Preventive Medicine Activity to evaluate a food
vendor's ability to prepare and dispense safe food on the installation.
The form, submitted one time by a food vendor requesting to operate a
food establishment on a military installation, characterizes the types
of foods, daily volume of food, supporting food equipment, and sanitary
controls. Approval to operate the food establishment is determined by
the installation's medical authority; the Preventive Medicine Activity
conducts an operational assessment based on the food safety criteria
prescribed in the Tri-Service Food Code (TB MED 530/NAVMED P-5010-1/
AFMAN 48-147_IP). Food vendors who are deemed inadequately prepared to
provide safe food service are disapproved for operating on the
installation.
Affected Public: Business or other for profit; Not-for-profit
institutions.
Annual Burden Hours: 23.
Number of Respondents: 91.
Responses per Respondent: 1.
Average Burden per Response: 15 minutes.
Frequency: On Occasion.
Respondents are food vendors requesting to operate a business on a
military installation or solicited by an installation command or
military unit through the Army and Air Force Exchange Service (AAFES),
Navy Exchange (NEX), Marine Corps Exchange (MCX), Family Morale,
Welfare and Recreation (FMWR), or other sponsoring entity to operate a
food establishment on the military installation or Department of
Defense site. If the form is not completed during the application
process, the Preventive Medicine assessment can only be conducted once
the operation is set up on the installation. A pre-operational
inspection is conducted before the facility is authorized to initiate
service to the installation. Critical food safety violation found
during the pre-operational inspection results in disapproval for the
facility to operate. All critical violations must be corrected in order
to gain operational approval; the installation command incurs the risk
of a foodborne illness outbreak if a non-compliant food establishment
is authorized to operate. The vendor's application to operate is
retained on file with Preventive Medicine and does not need to be
resubmitted by vendors whose services are intermittent throughout the
year unless the scope of the operation has changed.
