ADDRESSES
Analysis of Agreement Containing
Consent Order to Aid Public Comment
The Federal Trade Commission
(‘‘FTC’’ or ‘‘Commission’’) has accepted,
subject to final approval, an agreement
containing a consent order from
Enhanced Vision Systems, Inc., a
corporation (‘‘respondent’’).
The proposed consent order has been
placed on the public record for thirty
(30) days for reception of comments by
interested persons. Comments received
during this period will become part of
the public record. After thirty (30) days,
the Commission will again review the
agreement and the comments received
and will decide whether it should
withdraw from the agreement or make
final the agreement’s proposed order.
This matter involves respondent’s
marketing and sale of vision
enhancement products purportedly
‘‘Made in the U.S.A.’’According to the
FTC complaint, respondent represented
that certain of its vision enhancement
products were made in the United
States, when, in fact, a significant
portion of their components are of
foreign origin. See Enforcement Policy
Statement on U.S. Origin Claims (1997)
(‘‘A product that is all or virtually all
made in the United States will
ordinarily be one in which all
significant parts and processing that go
into the product are of U.S. origin.’’).
Thus, the complaint alleges that
respondent’s claim is false or
misleading in violation of Section 5(a)
of the FTC Act.
The proposed consent order contains
a provision designed to prevent
respondent from engaging in similar
acts and practices in the future. Part I of
the proposed order prohibits respondent
from representing the extent to which
its vision-related products are made in
the United States unless the
representation is true and not
misleading. Parts II through V require
respondent to keep copies of
advertisements and materials relied
upon in disseminating any
representation covered by the order; to
provide copies of the order to certain of
its personnel, agents, and
representatives having responsibilities
with respect to the subject matter of the
order; to notify the Commission of
changes in corporate structure that
might affect compliance obligations
under the order; and to file compliance
reports with the Commission and
respond to other requests from FTC
staff. Part VI provides that the order will

terminate after twenty (20) years under
certain circumstances.
The purpose of this analysis is to
facilitate public comment on the
proposed order. It is not intended to
constitute an official interpretation of
the agreement and proposed order or to
modify in any way their terms.
By direction of the Commission.

Submission for OMB Review;
Comment Request
Title: Request for Assistance for Child
Victims of Human Trafficking.
OMB No.: 0970–0362.
Description: The William Wilberforce
Trafficking Victims Protection
Reauthorization Act (TVPRA) of 2008,
Public Law 110–457, directs the U.S.
Secretary of Health and Human Service
(HHS), upon receipt of credible
information that a non-U.S. citizen
(alien) child may have been subjected to
a severe form of trafficking in persons
and is seeking Federal assistance
available to victims of trafficking, to
promptly determine if the child is
eligible for interim assistance. The law
further directs the Secretary of HHS to
determine if a child receiving interim
assistance is eligible for assistance as a
victim of a severe form of trafficking in
persons after consultation with the
Attorney General, the Secretary of
Homeland Security, and
nongovernmental organizations with
expertise on victims of severe form of
trafficking.
In developing procedures for
collecting the necessary information
from potential child victims of
trafficking, their case managers,
attorneys, or other representatives to
allow HHS to grant interim eligibility,
HHS devised a form. HHS has
determined that the use of a standard
form to collect information is the best
way to ensure requestors are notified of
their option to request assistance for
child victims of trafficking and to make
prompt and consistent determinations
about the child’s eligibility for
assistance.
Specifically, the form asks the
requestor for his/her identifying
information, for information on the

Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 142 / Monday, July 27, 2009 / Notices
child, information describing the type of
trafficking and circumstances
surrounding the situation, and the
strengths and needs of the child. The
form also asks the requestor to verify the
information contained in the form
because the information could be the
basis for a determination of an alien
child’s eligibility for federally funded
benefits. Finally, the form takes into
consideration the need to compile
information regarding a child’s
circumstances and experiences in a non-
directive, child-friendly way, and assists
the potential requestor in assessing
whether the child may have been
subjected to trafficking in persons.
The information provided through the
completion of a Request for Assistance
for Child Victims of Human Trafficking
form will enable HHS to make prompt
determinations regarding the eligibility
of an alien child for interim assistance,
inform HHS’ determination regarding
the child’s eligibility for assistance as a
victim of a severe form of trafficking in
persons, facilitate the required
consultation process, and enable HHS to
assess and address potential child
protection issues.
Respondents: Representatives of
governmental and nongovernmental
entities providing social, legal, or
protective services to non-U.S. citizen
(alien) individuals under the age of 18
(children) in the United States who may
have been subjected to severe forms of
trafficking in persons.

Proposed Project
National Program of Cancer Registries
Cancer Surveillance System—
Revision—National Center for Chronic
Disease Prevention and Health
Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Cancer is the second leading cause of
death in the United States, second only
to heart disease. In 2005, the most
recent year for which complete
information is available, more than
500,000 people died of cancer and more
than 1.34 million were diagnosed with
cancer. In addition to the personal
impact of cancer, the financial burden is
also substantial. The direct treatment
costs of cancer in 2008 have been
estimated at $93.2 billion, with
additional indirect costs of $134.9
billion in lost productivity due to illness
and premature death.
In 1992, Congress passed the Cancer
Registries Amendment Act which
established the National Program of
Cancer Registries (NPCR). The NPCR
provides support for central cancer
registries (CCR) that collect, manage and
analyze data about cancer cases. The
NPCR-funded CCRs, which are located
in states, the District of Columbia, and
U.S. territories, report information to
CDC annually through the National
Program of Cancer Registries Cancer
Surveillance System (NPCR CSS) (OMB
No. 0920–0469, exp. 1/31/2010). CDC
plans to request OMB approval to
continue collecting this information for
three years.
The NPCR CSS allows CDC to collect,
aggregate, evaluate and disseminate
cancer incidence data at the national
level. The NPCR CSS is the primary
source of information for United States
