* Based on the planned respondents, the average hourly rates are the average of the mean hourly wage estimates for the following occupational groups: Epidemiologists, health care support aides, medical and health services managers, pharmacists, physicians, physician assistants,
registered nurses, and respiratory therapists. The wage estimates are derived from the National Occupational Employment and Wage Estimates,
Bureau of Labor Statistics, May 2006.
Estimated Annual Costs to the Federal
Government
This data collection effort is one
aspect of a larger effort focused on
reducing healthcare associated
infections. The cost of developing the
data collection instruments by a
onetime statistical support task order is
$25,000. The costs of implementing the
data collection instruments and
analyzing and publishing the results are
$108,650 annually.
Finally, the estimated costs for federal
staff time for supporting the common
data collection efforts are $24,000
annually. Thus, the estimated annual
cost to the federal government is
$145,150.

Proposed Project
State of Pennsylvania Fire and Life
Safety Public Education Survey—New—

Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 65 / Thursday, April 3, 2008 / Notices
Division of Unintentional Injury,
National Center for Injury Prevention
and Control (NCIPC), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
This project will involve conducting a
statewide survey of Pennsylvania fire
departments to identify current fire and
life safety education programs,
resources, and training needs. Survey
findings will be used to develop an
inventory of programs and resources,
and to inform Pennsylvania’s fire and
life safety educators during future
training programs. In the United States
each year, there are approximately
400,000 residential fires, with 14,000
non-fatal and 3,000 fatal civilian
injuries. The National Center of Injury
Prevention and Control (NCIPC), in line
with Healthy People 2010 objectives,
work to reduce and eliminate non-fatal
and fatal injuries from residential fires.
The survey will be conducted with
fire departments in Pennsylvania. The
2007 National Directory of Fire Chiefs &
EMS Administrators lists all fire
departments in Pennsylvania along with
their contact information. A stratified
random sampling strategy will be used
to generate a study sample that includes
all career and combination (career/
volunteer) fire departments and a
proportion of all volunteer fire
departments. An initial mailing will be
sent to the current postal addresses and
existing e-mail addresses of selected fire
departments’ Fire Chiefs. This mailing
will include a brief description of the
study and instructions on how to submit
the survey. Fire departments will be
asked to participate in a 35-item survey.
Completed surveys will be returned
either on-line, through the mail, or by
fax. Non-responding fire departments
will be telephoned to confirm receipt of
the survey and to encourage
participation. The telephone script for
this group is approximately 3 minutes.
It is estimated that 260 out of the 654
initially contacted fire departments will
complete the 30 minute survey, which
is designed to collect information on the
scope and content of educational
programs and activities, training needs,
and barriers to fire and life safety
education.
There are no costs to respondents
except for their time to participate in the
surveys.
The total estimated annualized
burden hours are 163.
