The purpose of this notice is to allow an additional 30 days for public comment.

Proposed Collection: Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health (PATH) Study—Fourth Wave of Data Collection (NIDA), 0925-0664, expiration date 8/31/2018—REVISION—NIDA, NIH, in partnership with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Need and Use of Information Collection: This is a revision request (OMB number 0925-0664, expiration date 8/31/2018) for the Population Assessment of Tobacco and Health (PATH) Study to conduct the fourth wave of data collection. The PATH Study is a large national longitudinal cohort study on tobacco use behavior and health among the U.S. household population of adults age 18 and older and youth ages 12 to 17. On an annual basis, the PATH Study conducts interviews with and collects biospecimens from adults and youth to help inform the development, implementation, and evaluation of tobacco-product regulations by FDA in meeting its mission under the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act (TCA) to regulate tobacco products, including tobacco-product advertising, labeling, marketing, constituents, ingredients, and additives. The longitudinal design of the PATH Study provides it with the capacity to measure and report within-person changes and between-person differences in tobacco product use behaviors and health effects within the cohort over time. These data will help to inform regulatory decisions and actions by FDA and FDA's evaluations of associations between its regulations and tobacco use behaviors and health indicators in the population.
OMB approval is requested for 3 years. There are no costs to respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized burden hours are 94,798.
