Environmental Public Health Tracking Childhood Blood Lead Poisoning Summary for CLP2: Blood Lead Levels by Year or Birth Cohort, by County
Characteristic	Description
Data Sources	CDC Lead Program; CLPP Programs; Tracking Grantees
Purpose	This dataset allows public health professionals and researchers to evaluate screening practices and monitor progress towards eliminating lead poisoning among children. Also, this dataset will be used to develop indicators (with appropriate procedures to protect confidentiality) for the national public portal. This dataset can be linked to US Census data and other data sources to identify geographic areas where children are at risk for lead poisoning. This dataset is used to create the following indicators: Blood Lead Levels by Birth Cohort Annual Blood Lead Levels State Blood Lead Testing Practices
Restrictions	This is a restricted access dataset without appropriate confidentiality measures applied.

CDC estimates the average public reporting burden for this collection of information as 40 hours per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data/information sources, gathering and maintaining the data/information needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing this burden to CDC/ATSDR Information Collection Review Office, 1600 Clifton Road NE, MS H21-8, Atlanta, Georgia 30333; ATTN: PRA (0920-1175).
