In compliance with the requirement
of Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 for
opportunity for public comment on
proposed data collection projects, the
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) will publish periodic
summaries of proposed projects.

Background and Brief Description
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention is requesting OMB approval
to reinstate without change the
information collection request,
‘‘Restriction on Travel of Persons’’
(OMB Control No. 0920–0488). This
information collection request expired
on March 31, 2007.
CDC is authorized to collect this
information under 42 CFR 70.5 (Certain
communicable diseases; special
requirements). This regulation requires
that any person who is in the
communicable period for cholera,
plague, smallpox, typhus, or yellow
fever or having been exposed to any
such disease is in the incubation period
thereof, to apply for and receive a
permit from the Surgeon General or his
authorized representative in order to
travel from one State or possession to
another.
Control of disease transmission
within the States is considered to be the
province of state and local health
authorities, with Federal assistance
being sought by those authorities on a
cooperative basis without application of
Federal regulations. The regulations in
42 part 70 were developed to facilitate
Federal action in the event of large
outbreaks requiring a coordinated effort
involving several states, or in the event
of inadequate local control. While it is
not known whether, or to what extent
situations may arise in which these
regulations would be invoked,
contingency planning for domestic
emergency preparedness is now
commonplace. Should these situations
arise, CDC will use the reporting and
recordkeeping requirements contained
in the regulations to carry out
quarantine responsibilities as required
by law.
There is no cost to respondents other
than their time.

Notice of Public Meeting
The National Institute for
Occupational Safety and Health
(NIOSH) of the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC),
Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS).
SUMMARY: The National Institute for
Occupational Safety and Health
(NIOSH) of the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC)
announces the following public
meeting: Partnerships to Advance the
National Occupational Research Agenda
(NORA)’’.
Public Meeting Time and Date: 9
a.m.–3 p.m. EST, February 27, 2008.
Place: Patriots Plaza, 395 E Street
SW., Conference Room 9000,
Washington, DC 20201.
Purpose of Meeting: NORA has been
structured to engage partners with each
other and/or with NIOSH to advance
NORA priorities. The NORA Liaison
Committee continues to be an
opportunity for representatives from
organizations with national scope to
learn about NORA progress and to
suggest possible partnerships based on
their organization’s mission and
contacts. This opportunity is now able
to be structured as a public meeting via
the Internet in order to attract
participation by a larger number of
organizations and to enhance the
success of NORA. Some of the types of
organizations of national scope that are
especially encouraged to participate are

employers, unions, trade associations,
labor associations, professional
associations, and foundations. Others
are welcome.
This meeting will include updates
from NIOSH leadership on NORA as
well as updates from approximately half
of the Councils on their progress,
priorities and implementation plans to
date, including the Agriculture, Forestry
and Fishing Sector; Healthcare and
Social Assistance Sector;
Transportation, Warehousing and
Utilities Sector; Mining Sector and Oil
and Gas Extraction Sub-Sector. After
each update, there will be time to
discuss partnership opportunities.
Status: The meeting is open to the
public, limited only by the capacities of
the conference call and conference room
facilities. There is limited space
available in the meeting room (capacity
34). Therefore, information to allow
participation in the meeting through the
internet (to see the slides) and a
teleconference call (capacity 50) will be
provided to registered participants.
Participants are encouraged to consider
attending by this method. Each
participant is requested to register for
the free meeting by sending an E-mail to
noracoordinator@cdc.gov containing the
participant’s name, organization name,
contact phone number on the day of the
meeting, and preference for
participation by web meeting
(requirements include: Computer,
internet connection and phone,
preferably with ‘‘mute’’ capability) or in
person. An E-mail confirming
registration will include the details
needed to participate in the web
meeting. Non-U.S. citizens are
encouraged to participate in the web
meeting. Non-U.S. citizens registering to
attend in person after February 15 will
not have time to comply with security
procedures.
Background: The National
Occupational Research Agenda (NORA)
is a partnership program to stimulate
innovative research in occupational

safety and health leading to improved
workplace practices. Unveiled in 1996,
NORA has become a research
framework for the nation. Diverse
parties collaborate to identify the most
critical issues in workplace safety and
health. Partners then work together to
develop goals and objectives for
addressing those needs and to move the
research results into practice. The
NIOSH role is facilitator of the process.
For more information about NORA, see
https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/nora/
about.html.
Since 2006, NORA has been
structured by industrial sectors. Eight
sector groups have been defined using
the North American Industrial
Classification System (NAICS). After
receiving public input through the web
and town hall meetings, NORA Sector
Councils have been working to define
sector-specific strategic plans for
conducting research and moving the
results into widespread practice. During
2008, most of these Councils will post
draft strategic plans for public comment.
For more information, see the link above
and choose ‘‘Sector-based Approach,’’
‘‘NORA Sector Councils’’ and
‘‘Comment on Draft Sector Agendas’’
from the right-side menu.
