Occupational Research Agenda
The National Institute for
Occupational Safety and Health
(NIOSH) of the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC)
announces the following public meeting
and request for information:
Name: Opportunity to Provide Input
for the National Occupational Research
Agenda (NORA).
Time and Date: March 13, 2006, 9
a.m.–5 p.m. EST.
Place: Department of Health and
Human Services, Great Hall, The Hubert
H. Humphrey Building, 200
Independence Avenue, SW.,
Washington, DC 20201.
Status: This meeting is open to the
public, limited only by the space
available.
Background: NORA is a framework to
guide occupational safety and health
research for the nation. NORA seeks to
focus research in order to reduce workrelated injury and illness. As the
program approaches a ten-year
milestone, NIOSH is accepting input
VerDate Aug<31>2005

from individuals and organizations on
important research issues and agendas.
This input will assist in the
development of the initiative’s future
direction, which will be based on eight
different industry sector groups.
The public meetings are open to
everyone, including all workers,
professional societies, organized labor,
employers, researchers, health
professionals, government officials, and
elected officials. Broad participation is
desired. All participants are requested
to register for the free meeting at the
NORA Web page or onsite the day of the
meeting. Participants wishing to speak
are encouraged to register early.
Purpose: The meeting will address
priorities for research during a morning
and an afternoon public comment
period. Stakeholders will be invited to
speak for 5 minutes on an important
occupational safety and health issue,
including those that occur in multiple
sectors. Participants may register to
speak during either the morning or the
afternoon session, though they are
encouraged to stay for both sessions
should they choose.
Types of occupational safety and
health issues might include diseases,
injuries, exposures, populations at risk,
and needs of occupational safety and
health systems. Falls from heights, for
example, might be a top injury issue for
the residential construction industry.
Low back pain and related back
disorders might be a top disease concern
for the urban transit industry.
If possible, please include as much
information as might be useful for
understanding the safety or health
research priority you identify. Such
information could include
characterization of the frequency and
severity with which the injury, illness,
or hazardous exposure is occurring and
of the factors you believe might be
causing the health or safety issue. Input
is also requested on the types of
research that you believe might make a
difference and which partners (e.g.,
specific industry associations, labor
organizations, research organizations,
governmental agencies) should be
involved in informing research efforts
and solutions.
All presentations will be entered into
the NORA Docket, which is maintained
by NIOSH. All comments in the NORA
Docket will be used to help shape
sector-specific and related cross-sector
research agendas for the nation.
Comments may also be e-mailed to
niocindocket@cdc.gov or sent via postal
mail to Docket NIOSH–047, Robert A.
Taft Laboratories (C–34), 4676 Columbia
Parkway, Cincinnati, Ohio 45226. More

ACTION:
SUMMARY: The Food and Drug
Administration (FDA), on behalf of the
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) and the National
Institute of Allergy and Infectious
Diseases (NIAID) are announcing a
public workshop entitled ‘‘Emerging
Clostridial Disease.’’ This public
workshop is intended to develop a draft
research agenda to better understand the
virulence, pathogenesis, host factors,
and nonantimicrobial risk factors
contributing to reports of morbidity and
mortality associated with Clostridium
sordellii (C. sordellii) and Clostridium
difficile (C. difficile). Additionally, our
goals are to identify research needs and
priorities that will enable rapid progress
as well as to develop and provide
recommendations for detecting cases
and conducting surveillance of diseases
and organisms.
DATES: The public workshop will be
held on May 11, 2006, from 8:30 a.m. to
