Background and brief description of
the proposed project: The impact of case
management policy on the National
Breast and Cervical Cancer Early
Detection Program (NBCCEDP)
operations and clients is not well
understood to date. Evaluation results
thus far have produced a general,
qualitative understanding of how case
management has been implemented by
grantees. Questions remain, however,
regarding: (1) The number of grantees
who have implemented different types
of financial and service delivery models
of case management; (2) costs associated
with different approaches to case
management; and (3) whether or not
case management activities have a
positive impact on clients. This
evaluation project will focus on the first
and second questions.
The purpose of the case management
assessment will be to gather some
quantitative and descriptive information
about how the case management
component has been implemented by all
NBCCEDP grantees. Results of the
evaluation should assist CDC in
developing case management training,
providing technical assistance, and
assessing the costs of case management.
A standardized written survey will be
used to collect descriptive information
from all NBCCEDP grantees on
components of case management
program activities including:
organizational structure, financial and
service delivery models, staffing, and
needs for training or technical
assistance. A total of 68 Breast and
Cervical Cancer Program Directors will
be asked to complete the survey, with
assistance from program Case
Management Coordinators as needed.
The survey is expected to take an
average of 1.5 hours to complete. The
only cost to respondents is their time.
This is a one-time data collection effort.
The total annualized burden for
respondents is 102 hours.

Proposed Project
Foreign Quarantine Regulations, OMB
No. 0920–0134—Revision—National
Center for Infectious Diseases (NCID),
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC). Section 361 of the
Public Health Service (PHS) Act (42
U.S.C. 264) authorizes the Secretary of
Health and Human Services (DHHS) to
make and enforce regulations necessary
to prevent the introduction,
transmission, or spread of
communicable diseases from foreign
countries into the United States.
Legislation and the existing
regulations governing foreign quarantine
activities (42 CFR part 71) authorize
quarantine officers and other personnel
to inspect and undertake necessary
control measures with respect to
conveyances, persons, and shipments of
animals and etiologic agents entering

the United States from foreign ports in
order to protect the public health.
Under foreign quarantine regulations,
the master of a ship or captain of an
airplane entering the United States from
a foreign port is required by public
health law to report certain illnesses
among passengers (42 CFR 71.21)(b). In
this revision, CDC proposes adding two
additional reporting requirements. First,
in addition to the aforementioned list of
required illnesses to be reported, CDC is
asking that reports be made for the
following conditions, which may
indicate a reportable illness: (1)
Hemorrhagic fever syndrome (persistent
fever accompanied by abnormal
bleeding from any site); or (2) acute
respiratory syndrome (severe cough or
severe respiratory disease of less than 3
weeks in duration); or (3) acute onset of
fever and severe headache,
accompanied by stiff neck or change in
level of consciousness. CDC has the
authority to collect personal health
information to protect the health of the
public under the authority of section
301 of the Public Health Service Act (42
U.S.C.).
Second, CDC proposes adding the
Passenger Locator Form currently under
OMB control number 0920–0664 to
OMB control number 0920–0134. The
Passenger Locator Form is used to
collect reliable information that assists
quarantine officers in locating in a
timely manner those passengers and
crew who are exposed to communicable
diseases of public health importance

while traveling on a conveyance.
Additional burden hours for the
voluntary reporting of additional certain
illnesses and the Passenger Locator
Form are reflected in the burden hour
table below.
DHHS delegates authority to CDC to
conduct quarantine control measures.
Currently, with the exception of rodent
inspections and the cruise ship
sanitation program, inspections are
performed only on those vessels and
aircraft which report illness prior to
arrival or when illness is discovered
upon arrival. Other inspection agencies
assist quarantine officers in public
health screening of persons, pets, and
other importations of public health
significance and make referrals to PHS
when indicated. These practices and
procedures assure protection against the
introduction and spread of
communicable diseases into the United
States with a minimum of

Proposed Project
Exposure to Aerosolized Brevetoxins
during Red Tide Events (OMB No.
0920–0494)—Revision—National Center
for Environmental Health (NCEH),
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Karenia brevis (formerly
Gymnodinium breve) is the marine
dinoflagellate responsible for extensive
blooms (called red tides) that form in
the Gulf of Mexico. K. brevis produces
potent toxins, called brevetoxins, that
have been responsible for killing
millions of fish and other marine
organisms. The biochemical activity of
brevetoxins is not completely

understood and there is very little
information regarding human health
effects from environmental exposures,
such as inhaling brevetoxin that has
been aerosolized and swept onto the
coast by offshore winds. The National
Center for Environmental Health
(NCEH), Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) has recruited people
who work along the coast of Florida and
who are periodically occupationally
exposed to aerosolized red tide toxins.
We have administered a base-line
respiratory health questionnaire and
conducted pre- and post-shift
pulmonary function tests during a time
when there is no red tide reported near
the area. When a red tide developed, we
administered a symptom survey and
conducted pulmonary function testing
(PFT). We compared (1) symptom
reports before and during the red tide
and (2) the changes in baseline PFT
values during the work shift (differences
between pre- and post-shift PFT results)
without exposure to red tide with the
changes in PFT values during the work
shift when individuals are exposed to
red tide.
Unfortunately, the exposures
experienced by our study cohort have
been minimal, and we plan to conduct
another study (using the same symptom
questionnaires and spirometry tests)
during a more severe red tide event.
