requires Federal agencies to provide a
60-day notice in the Federal Register
concerning each proposed collection of
information, including each new
proposed collection, each proposed
extension of existing collection of
information, and each reinstatement of
previously approved information
collection before submitting the
collection to the OMB for approval. To
comply with this requirement, we are
publishing this notice of a proposed
data collection as described below.
The OMB is particularly interested in
comments that will help:
1. Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
2. Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
3. Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
4. Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submissions
of responses.
5. Assess information collection costs.

Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The Safe Drinking Water Act of 1974
(SDWA) ensures that most Americans
are provided access to water that meets
established public health standards.
However, for over 38 million Americans
who rely on private wells or other
drinking water not protected by the
SDWA (herein referred to as private
wells), that is not the case. There is no
comprehensive knowledge about the
locations of private wells, the
populations served by these sources,
potential contaminants that might be
present in private well water in specific

public health protection activities
conducted by the requesting agencies.
The respondents are defined as adults
at least 18 years old, who use private
wells for drinking water, who are
willing to receive and return a tap water
sampling kit and urine specimen kit or
to provide a blood specimen, and who
are willing to answer survey questions.
They will be recruited from geographic
areas of interest as defined by the
requesting agency. Based on our
historical activities, we estimate that
CDC will conduct up to 10
investigations per year. Each
investigation will involve on average
200 respondents. The total time burden
is 2,084 hours. There will be no cost to
the respondents other than their time.

areas of the country, or the potential
health risks associated with drinking
water from these sources.
The purpose of this Generic
Information Collection Request (Generic
ICR) is to assess the health risks
associated with exposure to
contaminants in drinking water from
private wells across varied geographic
areas of the United States in partnership
with the requesting agency (state,
territorial, local, or tribal health
department). The information obtained
from these investigations will be used to
describe health risks from exposure to
contaminants in drinking water from
private wells within a defined time
period and geographic distribution. This
information will be used to inform
