Download as PDF 14128 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 59 / Monday, March 30, 2009 / Notices acre of land along the eastern boundary of the LPOE, and approximately one acre along the western boundary of the LPOE. This expansion will mitigate traffic congestion in the port and allow an increase of the number of inspection lanes and employee parking. The expansion and reconfiguration of the LPOE will accommodate 11 primary booths for northbound inspection and allow for the future accommodation of four additional booths, including one booth for U.S./Mexico Emergency Vehicle pathway. The current six primary northbound U.S. entry lanes will be converted into three primary booths for U.S. entry for bus/high occupancy vehicles/recreational vehicles (HOV/RV) and bicycles. Southbound vehicle inspection lanes will be expanded from two to three lanes and four adjacent secondary inspection stalls will be constructed. Under the proposed action, a new headhouse facility will be constructed, administrative offices will be renovated, and pedestrian processing facilities would be expanded. Roadway modifications within the port will be conducted to improve traffic movement through the port and to enhance pedestrian safety. These modifications will also allow for establishment of an emergency route through the port. The EIS will evaluate the potential environmental impacts associated with alternatives to implement the proposed action, including the No Action Alternative: Alternative 1: Reconfigure the existing San Luis I LPOE and expand facilities through acquisition of approximately one acre of adjacent land to the west and approximately one acre of adjacent land to the east. No Action Alternative: Continue operations in the existing LPOE facilities as they are currently configured. This alternative is included to provide a basis of comparison to the action alternative as required by NEPA regulations (40 CFR 1002.14[d]). SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The public scoping period starts with publication of this notice in the Federal Register and will continue for 45 days from the date of the notice. GSA will consider all comments received or postmarked by that date in defining the scope of the EIS. A public scoping meeting will be held to provide the public with an opportunity to present comments, ask questions, and discuss concerns regarding the scope of the EIS with GSA representatives. GSA will hold a public scoping meeting on April 14, 2009 at the San Luis City Hall Council Chambers, 1090 E. Union Street from 4 to 7 p.m. DATES: Interested parties should submit written comments on or before May 14, 2009.

Two modes of administration will be tested, telephone (both landline and cell) and selfadministration via the Web. The telephone survey will be conducted in three metropolitan areas. The Web survey will use an on-going national consumer panel. Rather than representative random sampling from the population, the sampling is purposive, designed to reach subpopulations of those who are vulnerable from a health protections perspective and those who have low health literacy, that is, difficulty accessing and/or understanding health messages. Therefore, included in the target groups are the elderly, who may be somewhat isolated and for whom health messages may be confusing; people of low socioeconomic status, whose level of education can be a barrier to comprehending and following health messages; and persons not fluent in English, for whom innovative ways of communicating health messages may be necessary. For this nonprobability sample, telephone respondents will be recruited through commercial lists that optimize reaching specific subpopulations. Members of the general population will be surveyed as well in order to provide a benchmark for the subpopulations of interest. Web respondents will be recruited through an existing national consumer panel. CDC will use the field test data to assess continuity of response patterns within each of the subgroups and to determine differences in administration time. In addition to subgroup population differences in attitudes, beliefs, and health behaviors, CDC will use the data to examine item-level mode effects, regional differences, and administrative/logistical barriers to guide the design of core measure surveys for other health protection behaviors. There is no cost to respondents other than their time to complete the survey. Proposed Project Field Test of Communication and Marketing Variables for Health Protection—New—National Center for Health Marketing/Coordinating Center for Health Information Service (NCHM/ CCHIS), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description CDC does not have a mechanism to assess and monitor the health communication and marketing components of health protection. While CDC does evaluate specific health communication and marketing programs and projects, the common elements rooted in communication and marketing theories and constructs are not identified across programs and projects, nor frequently compared after the fact to ascertain the underlying factors and dynamics that inform and shape individual and group behaviors and actions. The purpose of this project is to develop a core set of communication and marketing constructs to inform CDC health protection programs and projects as well as track population-level changes over time. CDC seeks a flexible platform that can be adapted to explore a wide range of health protection behaviors and inform communication and marketing efforts across CDC program areas. The survey platform underlying this field test is based on the People and Places framework (Maibach et al., 2007; https://www.biomedcentral.com/ 1471=2458/7/88), and incorporates key constructs from health behavior theories and communication models to illustrate how personal and environmental factors may influence behavior. This platform offers the flexibility to develop survey items to assess a specific health topic (e.g., pan/seasonal flu, natural hazards, bioterrorism, etc.) while simultaneously relying on a standardized set of core underlying social-psychological and communication constructs. The proposed data collection is to conduct a field test of the survey instrument focusing on the core communication and marketing ESTIMATED ANNUALIZED BURDEN HOURS Number of respondents sroberts on PROD1PC70 with NOTICES Respondents Screener ..........................................................................................................
