THE THREE
SURVEYS SUBMITTED FOR CLEARANCE ARE APPROVED FOR USE THROUGH JULY
1982 WITH THE CONDITION THAT NO INDIVIDUALLY IDENTIFIABLE DATA
INCLUDING REPORTS WILL BE PUBLISHED FOR EXTERNAL OR INTERNAL
PURPOSES. IN ADDITION, OMB EXPECTS THAT ANY FUTURE SDA SURVEYS WILL
BE SUBMITTED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS PRIOR TO FIELDING. CLEARANCE OF
THESE SURVEYS IN NO WAY GUARANTEES APPROVAL OF ANY FUTURE SDA
SURVEYS. FUTURE SUBMISSIONS AS WELL AS ANY DOCUMENTS FROM THESE
THREE SURVEYS MUST ADDRESS THE LIMITATIONS OF THE DATA. FINALLY,
OMB WOULD LIKE, FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES, COPIES OF ALL FINAL
DOCUMENTS RESULTING FROM EACH SDA, INCLUDING ANY RECOMMENDATIONS
MADE.
