Submission for OMB Review;
Comment Request; Program Review of
the Division of Acquired
Immunodeficiency Syndrome Policy
Implementation Program
AGENCY: National Institutes of Health
(NIH), Policy, Training, and Quality
Assurance Branch (PTQAB), Division of
Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome
(DAIDS), The National Institute of
Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID).
SUMMARY: Under the provisions of
Section 3507(a)(1)(D) of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, the National
Institute of Allergy and Infectious
Diseases (NIAID) Office of Science
Policy and Planning, the National
Institute of Health (NIH) has submitted
to the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) a request for review and
approval of the information collection
listed below. This proposed information
collection was previously published in
the Federal Register, July 16, 2009 (74
FR 34580), and allowed 60 days for
public comment. No public comments
were received. The purpose of this
notice is to allow an additional 30 days
for public comment. The National
Institutes of Health may not conduct or
sponsor, and the respondent is not
required to respond to, an information
collection that has been extended,
revised, or implemented on or after
October 1, 1995, unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number.
Proposed Collection: Title: Program
Review of the DAIDS Policy
Implementation Program Type of
Information Collection Request: New.
Need and Use of Information: The
program review of the Division of AIDS
(DAIDS) Implementation Program
(DPIP), is to be conducted over a threeyear period, and it will provide
feedback to aid in the understanding of
the target population’s knowledge,
attitudes, and perceptions of the DAIDS
Policy Implementation Program (DPIP).
The target population is classified as
Extramural Researchers (ERs), who are
recipients of funding from DAIDS to
conduct and review research. This target
population is comprised of Site Leaders
of Clinical Research Sites (CRSs) and
Research Networks and Clinical Site
Number of
respondents
Type of respondents
Data collection
instrument
Monitors of the CTUs and CRSs. The
researchers are located globally, and
may be part of more than one DAIDS
funded research study and/or network.
The DPIP is built upon four goals of
awareness and accessibility,
understandability, applicability, and
harmonization of the policies and
procedures. The review is to determine
DPIP’s progression to fulfillment of its
program goals. The results of the review
will provide DAIDS’ Policy, Training,
and Quality Assurance Branch (PTQAB)
with information to guide optimal
deployment of clinical research policies
and procedures intended to harmonize,
standardize and improve DAIDS
funded/sponsored research. The
program review will help derive an
understanding of whether the DPIP
program is implemented and
functioning as intended to meet its
program goals. Collection/Frequency of
Response: Web-based survey; annually
(once a year). Focus Group; one time.
Affected Public: Extramural
Researchers. Type of Respondents:
Adult professionals.

collection was previously published in
the Federal Register on July 17, 2009,
Volume 74, Number 136, pages 34760–
34761 and allowed 60-days for public
comment. Two public comments were
received. One questioned the value of
this study and suggested that the study
could not possibly be completed within
the stated cost estimates. We have
always conducted extremely efficient
studies within stated cost estimates. The
value of this research is demonstrated
by the involvement of multiple
government agencies. The second e-mail
simply expressed interest in more
information. The purpose of this notice
is to allow an additional 30 days for
public comment. The National Institutes
of Health may not conduct or sponsor,
and the respondent is not required to
respond to, an information collection
that has been extended, revised, or
implemented on or after October 1,
1995, unless it displays a currently valid
OMB control number.
Proposed Collection
Title: NEXT Generation Health Study.
Type of Information Collection
Request: New.
Need and Use of Information
Collection: The goal of this research is
to obtain data on adolescent health and
health behaviors annually for four years
beginning in the 2009–2010 school year
from a national probability sample of
adolescents. This information will
enable the improvement of health
services and programs for youth. The
study will provide needed information
about the health of U.S. adolescents.
The study will collect information on
adolescent health behaviors and social
and environmental contexts for these
behaviors annually for four years
beginning in the 2009–2010 school year.
Self-report of health status, health
behaviors, and health attitudes will be
collected by in-school and online
surveys. Anthropometric data, genetic
information, and neighborhood
characteristics will be gathered on all
participants as well. The study will also
incorporate a School Administrator
Survey and other data files to obtain
related information on school-level
health programs and community-level
contextual data. A representative
subsample of overweight and normal
weight adolescents will be identified
and additional data on behavioral risk
factors and biological markers and risk
factors will be gathered on these
adolescents.

ACTION: Notice.
SUMMARY: The Department of Health and
Human Services (HHS) notifies Federal
agencies of the laboratories currently
certified to meet the standards of
subpart C of the Mandatory Guidelines
for Federal Workplace Drug Testing
Programs (Mandatory Guidelines). The
Mandatory Guidelines were first
published in the Federal Register on
April 11, 1988 (53 FR 11970), and
subsequently revised in the Federal
Register on June 9, 1994 (59 FR 29908),
on September 30, 1997 (62 FR 51118),
and on April 13, 2004 (69 FR 19644).
A notice listing all currently certified
laboratories is published in the Federal
Register during the first week of each
month. If any laboratory’s certification
is suspended or revoked, the laboratory
will be omitted from subsequent lists
until such time as it is restored to full
certification under the Mandatory
Guidelines.
If any laboratory has withdrawn from
the HHS National Laboratory
Certification Program (NLCP) during the
past month, it will be listed at the end,
and will be omitted from the monthly
listing thereafter.
This notice is also available on the
Internet at https://
