a vendor meeting to provide information
on shared initiatives and activities, as
well as recent policy developments in
the area of acquisition training. FAI and
DAU work together to address many of
the acquisition workforce training needs
of the Federal Government. Partnering
with DAU enables FAI to build upon
existing DAU training, develop
Governmentwide curriculum, and
promote a cohesive and agile workforce.
FAI will describe plans and
requirements for training-related
services under the Acquisition
Workforce Training Fund (AWTF). Of
particular interest to vendors is a
solicitation for core acquisition training
that FAI plans to issue soon.
DAU will discuss plans for the
redesign of Contracting (CON) Level 2
courses.
The meeting will be held
December 9, 2005, from 10:00 a.m. to 12
p.m.

BILLING CODE 6820–EP–S
across the United States. In accordance
with the Healthy People 2010 goal to
‘‘eliminate elevated blood lead levels in
children,’’ there is a need for primary
prevention of childhood lead poisoning.
Primary prevention is the removal of
lead hazards from a child’s environment
before the child is exposed. Ensuring
compliance with the Lead Disclosure
Rule is one component of a primary
prevention strategy.
The U.S. Department of Justice, HUD,
and EPA, in partnership with local
health, housing, and law enforcement
agencies have completed more than 34
enforcement settlements under the Lead
Disclosure Rule. As a result, they have
obtained commitments from property
owners to test and abate lead-based
paint hazards in their high-risk rental
housing units. HUD has requested the
assistance of the Lead Poisoning
Prevention Branch at CDC to design and
implement an evaluation of their
enforcement efforts.
As part of this evaluation effort, CDC
is interested in the perception of the
Lead Disclosure Rule by sectors of the
property owner population that have
been targeted less often for enforcement
of the rule. This survey of rental
property owners who own fewer than 50
rental units will be the first effort of its
kind to capture this particular
population’s self-reported awareness of
and compliance with the Lead
Disclosure Rule.
The survey will be administered in
four U.S. cities during 2005 and 2006.
Two of the cities will be involved in a
compliance assistance and enforcement
intervention by HUD. The other two
cities will be control cities (without
such an intervention). For all four cities,
CDC will conduct a cross sectional,
‘‘before and after’’ study design. Each
respondent will be surveyed only once,
and participation is voluntary.
Respondents will be asked to
complete a brief written survey and
return the survey anonymously via the
addressed, stamped envelope that CDC
will provide. There is no cost to
respondents except the time to complete
the survey. The estimated total burden
hours are 250.

Proposed Project
2005 Lead Disclosure Rule Public
Awareness Survey—New—National
Center for Environmental Health
(NCEH), Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The proposed 2005 Lead Disclosure
Rule Public Awareness Survey will
assess small and medium-sized rental
property owners’ self-reported
awareness of and compliance with the
Lead Disclosure Rule. The Lead
Disclosure Rule requires property
owners to disclose to prospective
tenants and buyers the presence of lead
paint and lead-based paint hazards in
residential properties built before 1978,
if known by the owners. The rule was
published under the authority of Title X
of the Housing and Community
Development Act of 1992 by the
Department of Housing and Urban
Development (HUD) at 24 CFR part 35,
subpart A, and by the Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) at 40 CFR part
745, subpart F.
Childhood lead poisoning, while on
the decline, remains a threat to the
health and well-being of young children

help programs set priorities and
evaluate interventions.
The first Injury Control and Risk
Factor Survey (ICARIS), conducted in
1994, was a random digit dial telephone
survey that collected injury risk factor
and demographic data on 5,238 Englishand Spanish-speaking adults (18 years
of age or older) in the United States.
Proxy data were collected on 3,541
children less than 15 years old. More
than a dozen peer-reviewed scientific
reports have been published from the
ICARIS data on related subjects
including dog bites, bicycle helmet use,
residential smoke detector usage, fire
escape practices, attitudes toward
violence, suicidal ideation/behavior,
and compliance with pediatric injury
prevention counseling.
ICARIS–2 is a national telephone
survey focusing on injuries. The survey
process began in the summer of 2001
and was completed in early 2003.
Analyses are currently being conducted
on the data collected on nearly 10,000
respondents. The first phase of the
survey was initiated as a means for
monitoring the injury risk factor status
of the nation at the start of the
millennium.
The 2nd phase of ICARIS–2 is needed
to expand knowledge in areas
investigators could not fully explore
previously. By using data collected in
ICARIS as a baseline, the data collected
in Phase-2 will be used to measure
changes and gauge the impact of injury
prevention policies. This current
national telephone survey on injury risk
is being implemented to fully monitor
injury risk factors and selected year
‘‘Healthy People 2010’’ injury
objectives, as well as evaluate the
effectiveness of injury prevention
programs. There are no costs to
respondents except their time to

Background and Brief Description
This project will use data from a
telephone survey to measure injuryrelated risk factors and guide injury
prevention and control priorities,
including those identified as priorities
in ‘‘Healthy People 2010’’ objectives for
the nation. Injuries are a major cause of
premature death and disability with
associated economic costs of over 150
billion dollars in lifetime costs for
persons injured each year. ‘‘Healthy
People 2010’’ objectives and the recent
report from the Institute of Medicine,
‘‘Reducing the Burden of Injury’’, call
for reducing this toll. In addition to
national efforts, NCIPC funds injury
control prevention programs at the state
and local levels. The use of outcome
data (e.g., fatal injuries) for measuring
program effectiveness is problematic
because cause-specific events are
relatively rare and data on critical risk
factors (e.g., whether a helmet was worn
in a bike crash, whether a smoke
detector was present at a fatal fire, etc.)
are often missing. Because these risk
factors occur early in the causal chain
of injury, injury control programs
generally target them to prevent injuries.
Accordingly, monitoring the level of
injury risk factors in a population can
