the NTCP’s four goal areas: (1) The
prevention of initiation of tobacco use
among young people, (2) the elimination
of nonsmokers’ exposure to secondhand
smoke, (3) the promotion of quitting
among adults and young people, and (4)
the elimination of tobacco-related
disparities.
In order to yield results that are
representative and comparable at both
national and state levels, information
will be collected from approximately
1,863 land-line telephone users in each
state and the District of Columbia. In
addition, a total of approximately 3,000
interviews will be conducted from a
national sample of cell phone users to
include the growing population of
households that rely exclusively on cell
phones. All interviews will be
conducted using computer-assisted
telephone interview (CATI)
methodology.
Survey results will be used to develop
estimates of tobacco use at the national
level by gender and race/ethnicity and
to evaluate comprehensive Tobacco
Control Programs. Study results will
have significant implications for the
development of policies and programs
aimed at preventing or reducing tobacco
use. There are no costs to respondents
except their time. The estimated
annualized burden hours are 38,303.

Proposed Project
National Adult Tobacco Survey
(NATS)—New—Office on Smoking and
Health, National Center for Chronic
Disease Prevention and Health
Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Tobacco use remains the leading
preventable cause of disease and death
in the United States. Although the
prevalence of current smoking among
adults decreased significantly from 1998
to 2007 in 44 states, the District of
Columbia, and Puerto Rico, only one
State and one territory have met Healthy
People 2010 targets for reducing adult
smoking prevalence to 12%, and six
States have shown no substantial
changes in prevalence after controlling
for age, sex, and race/ethnicity.
CDC proposes to conduct the National
Adult Tobacco Survey (NATS) in 2009–
2010 to help evaluate and improve the
effectiveness of CDC’s National Tobacco
Control Program (NTCP). The NATS
will be a one-time, stratified, randomdigit dialed telephone survey of noninstitutionalized adults 18 years of age
and older. Essential information will be
collected on key indicators from each of

Proposed Project
Evaluation of the Effectiveness of the
Smoke Alarm Installation and Fire

[OMB No. 0920–0730 Exp. 9/30/2009]—
Extension—National Center for Injury
Prevention and Control (NCIPC),

Background and Brief Description
This project seeks a one year
extension of its OMB PRA clearance for
data collection. Due to early project
delays in obtaining clearances for data
collection, the project was unable to
start as planned and missed evaluating
one program cycle, with a program cycle
running for approximately one year.
This extension is necessary in order to
complete the project’s original design of
evaluating three program cycles of the
SAIFE program as implemented in the
State of North Carolina. An extension
will allow completion of the evaluation
of the third and final cycle of the
program.
This project will use data from inperson interviews, paper and telephone
surveys to assess the effectiveness of the
Smoke Alarm Installation and Fire
Safety Education (SAIFE) program and
its efficacy in delivering fire safety
information. The data will be collected
from a convenience sample of adults 18
years of age or older who volunteer to
participate in the SAIFE program. A
total of 360 households will complete
the evaluation each year of the data
collection for a mass total of 1080
households over the next three years.
Participants will be asked to complete a
15-minute survey at two points, once
immediately before the intervention and
then 6 months afterwards. The survey
will assess outcome measures including,
but not limited to, changes in
knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, and
behaviors regarding various aspects of
fire safety and prevention; changes in
reported residential fire-related injuries
and deaths; increased or decreased
presence of functioning smoke alarms;
and the costs associated with the SAIFE
intervention. The evaluation will
measure these changes across time,
between groups and within groups,
among communities that will receive
the SAIFE intervention.
CDC programs are currently funded in
16 States to provide for home
installation of smoke alarms plus
general fire safety education in
households at high risk for fire and fire
related injury and death. Programs of
this type are intended to prevent fire
related injury and mortality, but have
not been studied scientifically to assess
their impact on fire-related injury
outcomes. The proposed study
represents the first formal effort to
evaluate the effectiveness and cost
implications of the SAIFE program as
implemented in North Carolina. The
data collected in this study will have
the potential to inform other smoke
alarm installation programs, as well as
indicate future priorities in prevention
and preparedness for residential
household fires. The only cost to the
participant is the time involved to
complete the surveys. The total
estimated annualized burden hours are
251.

HIV continues to be one of the leading
causes of illness and death in the US,
among injection drug users who are at
high risk of acquiring HIV infection.
HIV testing may not be readily
accessible to this population in areas
where they frequent. The New York
State Legislature established an
Expanded Syringe Access
Demonstration Program (ESAP) in 2001
in New York City. ESAP makes sterile
syringes available for injection drug
users through participating pharmacies,
in order to help reduce the burden of
HIV. The regular contact between
pharmacists and their injection-drugusing syringe customers through ESAP
paves the way for pharmacies to act as

access points to health and social
services among IDU customers. The
expansion of pharmacy services to
include referrals for injection-drugusing syringe customers is based on the
successes of ESAP, which provides
many services beyond syringe exchange.
The New York Academy of Medicine
(NYAM) has access to the ESAP list of
pharmacies. NYAM will identify 12
ESAP pharmacies in East Harlem, New
York City that are situated within
predefined target neighborhoods where
there are high levels of injection drug
use. NYAM study staff will screen the
ESAP pharmacies for eligibility by
calling down a randomly-ordered list of
ESAP-registered pharmacies and
enrolling pharmacies willing to
participate in this study. NYAM
anticipates that they will have to contact
24 ESAP-registered pharmacies in the
first year of the project (one pharmacy
staff member at each pharmacy) in order
to identify the 12 that will participate in
the study. Recruitment of pharmacies
will occur only during the first year.
At the 12 ESAP-registered pharmacies
that join the study, over a three year
period, 442 adult (age ≥18 yrs) injectiondrug-using syringe customers will
