public submit reports, keep records, or
provide information to a third party.
Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44
U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)) requires Federal
agencies to provide a 60-day notice in

of information is necessary for the
proper performance of AoA’s functions,
including whether the information will
have practical utility; (2) the accuracy of
AoA’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the

use of automated collection techniques
when appropriate, and other forms of
information technology. The

Americans Act are being administered
by grantees, in conformance with
legislative requirements, pertinent
Federal regulations and other applicable
instructions and guidelines issued by
Administration on Aging (AoA). This
information will be used for Federal
oversight of Title III Projects. AoA
estimates the burden of this collection
of information as follows: 56 State
Agencies on Aging respond
semiannually which should be an
average burden of 1 hour per State
agency per submission.

Proposed Project
Testing of Sexual Violence Definitions
and Recommended Data Elements in
Three Different Racial/Ethnic Minority
Communities -New-National Center for
Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC),
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC). The data collection
methodology will be conducted in two
phases. The first phase consists of 36 inperson cognitive interviews conducted
with women of African American,
Hispanic, or American Indian descent.
To assess the effectiveness and
appropriateness of questions in the
sexual violence survey instrument, we
will conduct a series of 12 cognitive
interviews with adult women from each
of these minority groups (for a total of
36 interviews). Cognitive interviewing
offers a structured methodology for
ascertaining whether the respondent has
understood the questions in the way the
researchers intend them to be
understood, and to assess the ability of
the respondents to provide meaningful,
accurate, and honest information. A
secondary purpose is to make sure that
issues pertinent to the research goals are
covered adequately.
The second phase of data collection
(‘‘main data collection’’) will entail 200
in-person interviews with women in
each of the minority groups to develop
an estimate of sexual violence
prevalence within these three
communities and describe the
characteristics of sexual violence within
each community.
Background and Brief Description
This study examines the definitions of
sexual violence in three racial/ethnic
minority communities: AfricanAmerican, American Indian, and
Hispanic. The purpose of this project is
to develop an understanding of sexual
violence in these communities. The
developed survey will include the
following: Projecting estimates of sexual
violence; describing the type of sexual
violence; and developing a strategy that
will increase awareness of sexual
violence in minority communities. In
addition, this project will establish the
groundwork for similar future research.
This research builds on findings from
the National Violence against Women
Survey (NVAW) (OMB No. 1121–0188;
expiration 5/1998), a joint research
effort funded by the (CDC) and National
Institute of Justice (NIJ) that explored

the occurrence of violence against
women through a survey administered
to a national sample of adult females
and males. The proposed study will
expand on this work by clarifying
definitions, expanding the categories of
sexual violence, and examining the
sexual violence event.
This study will focus on women and
will occur in two phases: Cognitive and
in-person interviews. In each of the
three communities, in-depth cognitive
interviews will be conducted with 12
adult women, for a total of 36 cognitive

total of 600 women. However, a total of
701 individuals will be screened.
Female respondents who are 18 years
old will be selected randomly from the
communities. Letters will be mailed to
each household in the sample. These
households will be contacted at a later
date in order to collect eligibility
information and to randomly select an
individual. Participants will complete a
45 minute interview.
There are no costs to respondents
except for their time to participate in the
interview.

interviews. However, a total of 66
individuals will be screened.
Respondents will be identified through
agencies working with victims of sexual
violence. Participants will be
interviewed (in either English or
Spanish) at the referral agency. The
primary purpose of this interview is to
assess the questions for the next phase
of the study.
In the next phase, researchers will
conduct face-to-face interviews with
approximately 200 women in each of
the three minority communities for a

Proposed Project
Importation of Etiologic Agents,
Hosts, and Vectors of Human Disease
(42 CFR 71.54)—(OMB Control No.
0920–0199)—Extension—Office of the
Director (OD), Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The Foreign Quarantine Regulations
(42 CFR part 71) set forth provisions to
prevent the introduction, transmission,
and spread of communicable disease
from foreign countries into the United
States. Subpart F—Importations—
contains provisions for importation of
etiologic agents, hosts, and vectors (42
CFR 71.54), requiring persons that
import or distribute after importation
these materials to obtain a permit issued
by the CDC. This request is for the
information collection requirements
contained in 42 CFR 71.54 for issuance
of permits by CDC to importers or
distributors after importation of

etiologic agents, hosts, or vectors of
human disease.
CDC is requesting continued OMB
approval to collect this information
through the use of two separate forms.
These forms are: (1) Application for
Permit to Import or Transport Etiologic
Agents, Hosts, or Vectors of Human
Disease and (2) Application for Permit
to Import or Transport Live Bats.
The Application for Permit to Import
or Transport Etiologic Agents, Hosts, or
Vectors of Human Disease will be used
by laboratory facilities, such as those
operated by government agencies,
universities, research institutions, and
zoologic exhibitions, and also by
importers of nonhuman primate trophy
materials, such as hunters or
taxidermists, to request permits for the
importation and subsequent distribution
after importation of etiologic agents,
hosts, or vectors of human disease. The
Application for Permit to Import or
Transport Etiologic Agents, Hosts, or
Vectors of Human Disease requests
applicant and sender contact
information; description of material for
importation; facility isolation and
containment information; and personnel
qualifications. Estimated average time to
complete this form is 20 minutes.
The Application for Permit to Import
or Transport Live Bats will be used by
laboratory facilities such as those
operated by government agencies,
universities, research institutions, and
zoologic exhibitions entities to request
importation and subsequent distribution
after importation of live bats. The
