This survey is
approved for a period of three years. The List Sampling Frame
Survey is not duplicative under current law, and meets the
maintenance needs of the Statistical Reporting Service efficiently.
If amendments to Title 13 U.S. Code permit access to comparable
data from the Census of Agriculture, or if changes in plans for
that census make it feasible to use the SRS frame informatio in
lieu of similar data collected by the Bureau of the Census, review
of this survey may be reopened prior to its expiration date, as
provided in 5 C.F.R. 1320.11(f).
