Proposed Project
Use of a Reader Response Postcard for
Workers Notified of Results of
Epidemiologic Studies Conducted by
the National Institute for Occupational
Safety and Health (NIOSH)—
Reinstatement—National Institute for
Occupational Safety and Health
(NIOSH), Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
NIOSH, under Section 20(a)(1), (a)(4),
(a)(7)(c), and Section 22 (d), (e)(5)(7) of
the Occupational Safety and Health Act
(29 U.S.C. 669), has the responsibility to
‘‘conduct (directly or by grants or
contracts) research, experiments, and
demonstrations relating to occupational
safety and health, including studies of
psychological factors involved, and
relating to innovative methods,
techniques, and approaches for dealing
with occupational safety and health
problems.’’ NIOSH also has the
responsibility to ‘‘conduct special
research, experiments, and
demonstrations relating to occupational
safety and health as are necessary to
explore new problems, including those
created by new technology in
occupational safety and health [e.g.,
worker notification], which may require
ameliorative action beyond that which
is otherwise provided for in the
operating provisions of the Act’’.
Since 1977, the National Institute for
Occupational Safety and Health
(NIOSH) has been developing methods
and materials for the notification of
subjects of its epidemiological studies.
NIOSH involvement in notifying
workers of past exposures relates
primarily to informing surviving cohort
members of the findings of retrospective
PO 00000
Frm 00051
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
cohort studies conducted by NIOSH.
Current policy within NIOSH is to
notify subjects of the results of its
epidemiologic studies. The extent of the
notification effort depends upon the
level of excess mortality or the extent of
the disease or illness found in the
cohort. Current notification efforts range
from posting results at the facilities
studied to mailing individual letter
notifications to surviving cohort
members and other stakeholders. The
Industry wide Studies Branch (IWSB) of
NIOSH, Division of Surveillance,
Hazard Evaluation, and Field Studies
(DSHEFS), usually conducts about two
or three notifications per year, which
typically require individual letters
mailed to cohorts ranging in size from
200–20,000 workers each. In order to
assess the effectiveness of the
notification materials received by the
recipients and to improve future
communication of risk information, the
evaluation instrument proposed was
developed.
The NIOSH Institute-wide Worker
Notification Program routinely notifies
subjects about the results of
epidemiologic studies and the
implications of the results. The overall
purpose of the proposed project is to
gain insight into the effectiveness of
NIOSH worker notification in order to
improve the quality and usefulness of
the Institute’s worker notification
activities. Researchers from the NIOSH
Division of Surveillance, Hazard
Evaluations and Field Studies (DSHEFS)
propose to provide notified workers
with a Reader Response postcard for
routinely assessing notified study
subjects’ responses to individual letter
notification materials sent to them by
NIOSH. We are requesting approval for
three years. Participation is voluntary
and there is no cost to respondents
except for their time.

Proposed Data Collections Submitted

In compliance with the requirement

Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) will publish periodic

Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
of the functions of the agency, including
whether the information shall have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including through the
use of automated collection techniques
process. Because this program
encompasses approximately 32 CBA
provider organizations, there is a
continued need for a standardized
system for reporting individual episodes
of CBA delivered by all CBA provider
grantees. The information collected
from the Trimester Progress Report,
CBA Notification, CBA Completion
Form, and the CBA Training Events
Report, will allow CDC to further
identify problems and technical
assistance needs of community-based
organization CBO, or CBA grantees in a
timely fashion and subsequently
improve the effectiveness of CBA
program activities and to ensure that
they are aligned with national goals.
The data collected using the CBA
Notification and Completion Forms, and
the Training Events Report are now
being collected via a Web portal
(http://www.cdc.gov/hiv/cba) that has
gone through a Certification and
Accreditation process. Continued
collection of this data in addition to the
Trimester Progress Report will assist
CDC, to aggregate data, and to discern
and refine national goals and objectives
for HIV prevention capacity building.
This information collection process is
also valuable for grantees as a
management tool to routinely examining
CBA program performance by assessing
strengths and weaknesses in line with
the CBA program, performance
indicators, and national objectives.
It is estimated that form A (will
require 4 hours of preparation by the
respondent, form B will require 15
minutes of preparation by the
respondent, and form C will require 30
minutes of preparation by the
respondent, and Form D will require 2
hours of preparation by the respondent.
In aggregate, report preparation requires
approximately 1952 burden hours by
each respondent. There is no cost to
respondents other than their time.

Proposed Project
Capacity Building Assistance (CBA)
Information, Collection, Reporting, and
Monitoring (OMB# 0920–0658)—three
year extension of the currently approved
collection—National Center for HIV and
AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, Sexually
Transmitted Disease, Tuberculosis
Prevention (NCHHSTP), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The purpose of this request is to
obtain OMB clearance to extend the 3year clearance for information collection
to monitor the HIV prevention activities
of CBA provider grantees funded by
CDC to provide HIV prevention CBA
from April, 1 2004 through March 31,
2009. Capacity building is a key strategy
for the promotion and sustainability of
health prevention programs. Capacity
building generally refers to the skills,
infrastructure, and resources of
organizations and communities that are
necessary to effect and maintain
behavior change, thus reducing the level
of risk for disease, disability, and injury.
CDC is responsible for monitoring and
evaluating HIV prevention activities
conducted under these cooperative
agreement numbers 04019, 05015, and
06608. Reporting and monitoring forms
have been used to collect information
that assists in enhancing and assuring
quality programming. CDC requires
current information regarding CBA
activities and services supported
through these cooperative agreements.
Therefore, forms such as the Trimester
Interim Progress Report, CBA
Notification Form, CBA Completion
Form, and the CBA Training Events
Report are considered a critical
component of the monitoring/evaluation
