Behavior Optimization; and Risk
Management. To date, little empirical
research has been conducted to address
practical research questions related to
each.
Therefore, the current research task is
designed to investigate research
questions related to the practical
purpose, implementation, and
evaluation of each element: (1) how is
each of these HSMS elements best
executed within mining organizations?;
(2) how do you know an element has
been successfully implemented within
the organization?; and (3) what are the
barriers to implementing these HSMS
elements within mining organizations?
This study employs a strictly
qualitative approach to answer the
research questions. A qualitative
approach allows researchers to probe
participants and learn about their
specific experiences through in-depth
examples. A protocol that will be used
during an interview and/or focus group
was developed. The subject matter in
the protocol is focused on implementing
and evaluating specific elements within
mine recruitment script. It is estimated
that a sample of up to 100 individuals
(approximately 34 per year) will agree to
participate among a variety of mine
sites. Participants will be between the
ages of 18 and 75, currently employed,
and living in the United States.
Participation will require no more than
60 minutes of workers’ time
(approximately five minutes for the
informed consent process and 55
minutes for the interview or focus
group—there is no cost to respondents
other than their time).
Upon collection of the data,
researchers will analyze and determine
the effect that each element has on a
mine’s ability to develop, implement or
maintain an HSMS. With that said, lines
of theoretical inquiry will be used to
inform the thinking behind the practical
guidance ultimately provided to mining
organizations. Essentially, best practices
can be provided that are applicable
across an HSMS, not respective to just
one aspect or element. Therefore, the
findings will be used to make an HSMS
more feasible and applicable for the
mining industry.
managers’ HSMS and possible barriers
to implementation and evaluation.
NIOSH is seeking a three year
approval for this project which will
target mine sites for participation by
reaching out to organizational leaders/
managers of health and safety at
respective mines for their participation.
Data collection, in the form of
interviews and/or focus groups will
occur to answer the questions for this
study.
Respondents targeted for this study
include corporate or site mine managers
(also referred to in some cases as
leaders, executives, coordinators or
supervisors). These individuals are
responsible for the day-to-day
administration and/or implementation
of the HSMS. In some cases, more than
one individual is responsible for certain
aspects of the HSMS. Therefore,
depending on how these responsibilities
are designated at mine sites and how
many of these leaders are interested at
each mine site, researchers will either
facilitate a single interview or a focus
group with mine site leadership.
Participants will be recruited through
members of mine management using a

Background and Brief Description
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC), Division of Global
Migration and Quarantine (DGMQ)
requests revision to a currently
approved information collection, OMB
Control Number 0920–0900, Contact
Investigation Outcome Reporting Forms.
CDC is requesting the addition of Ebolaspecific information collection tools to
supplement the CDC’s routine contact
investigation activities so that CDC can
better assess the risk to individuals who
may have been exposed to a confirmed
case of Ebola while traveling to or
within the United States. These forms
were approved by OMB under an
a person ill with Ebola. Airport staff
members are identified through
conversations with airport authority to
determine which employees carried out
tasks that would have put them in
contact with the ill person or their body
fluids.
• Passengers of other commercial
conveyance Ebola exposure
questionnaire—This questionnaire
collects the same information as the
airline passenger questionnaire but will
be utilized for passengers of commercial
conveyance that is land- or waterborne
• Finally, the introduction and
confirmation script is to be used by CDC
staff manning open call lines available
for persons who traveled on planes that
carried suspected or confirmed patients
with Ebola. As with the other
questionnaires, this script assesses the
risk of a plan passenger who was not in
the immediate vicinity of the Ebola
patient but still has concerns about the
level of exposure and risk of contracting
the virus.
CDC is not proposing any changes to
the routine contact investigation forms
already approved under this
information collection request.
The total burden associated with this
revision is 10,949 hours, including both
standard contact investigation forms
and updated forms to account for Ebola
transmission. There are no costs to
respondents other than their time.
emergency clearance, OMB Control
Number 0920–1032. The additional
forms to be added are as follows:
• Ebola Airline passenger exposure
questionnaire—This contact
investigation form gathers information
from airline passengers who traveled on
plane(s) and sat within a 3 foot area
around the suspected case and travel
companions of the suspected case to
determine the level of exposure and
risk, as well as other passengers who
may have had contact with the case’s
bodily fluids. Information gathered in
this form is shared with the CDC to
determine risk level. Risk levels are
outlined in CDC’s Movement and
Monitoring Guidance.
• Ebola exposure Assessment Flight
Crew—The flight exposure
questionnaire is used to ascertain the
same relevant information included in
the passenger questionnaire for all crew
who worked on flight(s) and came into
contact with Ebola patient(s).
• Ebola exposure Assessment
Cleaning Crew—This form collects the
same information as the flight crew
exposure questionnaire, used to
determine the level of exposure a
member of the cleaning crew who
serviced a flight with an ill patient(s).
• Ebola exposure Assessment Airport

questionnaire is utilized for airport staff

Description: Under section 471(a)(16)
of title IV–E of the Social Security Act
(the Act), to be eligible for payments,
states and tribes must have an approved
title IV–E plan that provides for the
development of a case plan for each
child for whom the State or Tribe
receives foster care maintenance
payments and that provides a case
review system that meets the
requirements in section 475(5) and
475(6) of the Act.
The case review system assures that
each child has a case plan designed to
achieve placement in a safe setting that
is the least restrictive (most family-like)
setting available and in close proximity
to the child’s parental home, consistent
with the best interest and special needs
of the child. Through these
requirements, States and Tribes also
comply, in part, with title IV–B section
422(b) of the Act, which assures certain
protections for children in foster care.
The case plan is a written document
that provides a narrative description of
the child-specific program of care.
Federal regulations at 45 CFR 1356.21(g)
and section 475(1) of the Act delineate
the specific information that should be
addressed in the case plan. The
Administration for Children and
Families (ACF) does not specify a
recordkeeping format for the case plan
nor does ACF require submission of the
document to the Federal government.
Case plan information is recorded in a
format developed and maintained by the
State or Tribal child welfare agency.
