In accordance with 5 CFR 1320, the information collection is approved, but only as a pilot project to study how latency and morbidity affect preferences for cancer risks and to evaluate whether further research is needed in this area. The sampling frame used is sufficiently innovative to warrant further research and the resulting sample of the pilot project is not nationally representative. OMB believes that further pilot testing and refinement is needed before the results would be of sufficient quality and robustness for policy purposes.

Reductions in cncer risks are among the most important and tangible benefits resulting from a variety of environmental, food safety and other public health initiatives. Nevertheless, little is known about how individuals value reducing cancer risks relative to other types of risks. While the impirical literature has focused almost exclusively on accidental (occupational and/or automobile) fatalities, it is often argued that differences between the characteristics of cancer risks and accidential risks may lead to significant idferences in how they are valued (as measured by willingness-to-pay (WTP). ..........................
