Responses will be analyzed to assess
organizations’ motivations for
participating in the program and any
barriers or facilitators encountered.
Because this survey will replace the
post-season survey currently required
by the DOHMH, it is not expected to
place substantial new burden on this
group of respondents. (2) A market
managers’ survey will be mailed to the
manager at each market site. This survey
is designed to assess barriers and
facilitators to distributing and accepting
Health Bucks, as well as factors
influencing decisions to operate markets
in underserved neighborhoods. (3) A
similar survey will be distributed to
farmers’ market vendors to assess their
experiences with the program and
factors influencing their decisions to
sell at markets in underserved
neighborhoods. (4) In-person interviews
will be conducted with an average of 30
consumers at each Health Bucks
markets and 20 at non-Health Bucks
motivations for shopping at farmers’
markets and experiences with NYC
Health Bucks. All focus groups will
incorporate appropriate representation
of diverse ethnic groups, and the groups
will be held in convenient locations in
New York City to ensure participants
can attend.
Farmers’ market consumer and
vendor surveys and the telephone
survey of neighborhood residents will
be available in English or Spanish.
The information collected in the
evaluation study will be used to: assess
the program’s ability to improve
nutrition behaviors among targeted
participants; identify factors serving as
barriers and facilitators to program
implementation and expected outcomes;
provide feedback to the DOHMH for the
purposes of program improvement; and
share results with other entities
interested in implementing similar
programs.
There are no costs to respondents
other than their time.
markets, for a total of about 2,300
consumers. The interviews will obtain
information about consumers’ access to
fresh fruits and vegetables at farmers’
markets and other sellers, fresh fruit and
vegetable purchase and consumption,
food insecurity, reasons for shopping at
farmers’ markets, and experiences with
using Health Bucks and SNAP benefits
at farmers’ markets. (5) Similar
information will be collected from
random-digit dial telephone interviews
of neighborhood residents.
Approximately 1,000 residents will be
surveyed, with equal sample sizes in
each of the three New York City
neighborhoods in which NYC Health
Bucks operates. (6) Focus groups will be
conducted with farmers’ market vendors
to obtain in-depth information about
their motivations for operating in
underserved neighborhoods and
experiences with NYC Health Bucks. (7)

Background and Brief Description
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) currently funds the

National Comprehensive Cancer Control
Program (NCCCP), which provides
funding and technical support to all 50
states, the District of Columbia, seven
Tribes/Tribal organizations, and seven
territories/U.S. Pacific Island
jurisdictions. The NCCCP was
established to improve the integration
and implementation of comprehensive
cancer control (CCC) plans across
funding and jurisdiction boundaries,
and is an outgrowth of efforts involving
CDC, the American Cancer Society, the
National Cancer Institute, the American
College of Surgeons, the North
American Association of Central Cancer
Registries, and public health leaders at
the State and national levels.
All 65 NCCCP-funded programs are
required to submit continuation
applications and semi-annual progress
reports describing performance plans
and measures. To date, progress reports
have been collected on templates that

Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 241 / Thursday, December 17, 2009 / Notices
serve as a guide, but do not standardize
the information to be collected. The
non-standardized approach to progress
reporting has resulted in CCC program
reports that vary in content and detail,
and cannot be readily compiled to
produce summary reports. OMB
approval has not previously been
obtained for the collection of this
information.
CDC seeks OMB approval to
implement a new database-driven
Management Information System (MIS)
for the collection of standardized
progress and performance information.
The MIS will achieve two objectives.
First, the MIS will provide an organized
source of information about the
activities and accomplishments of all
funded NCCCP programs. Secondly, the
electronic MIS will provide an efficient
mechanism for generating State,
regional, and national level summary
reports.
Information reported through the MIS
will be used by CDC to identify training
and technical assistance needs, monitor
compliance with cooperative agreement
requirements, evaluate progress made in
achieving program-specific goals, and
obtain information needed to respond to
Congressional and other inquiries
regarding program activities and
effectiveness.
OMB approval is requested for a
three-year period. Information will be
collected electronically twice per year.
The initial burden per response is
estimated to be six hours. After
respondents have become experienced
with entering data, and the amount of
new data to be entered decreases, the
burden per response is expected to
decrease. The total estimated
annualized burden hours are 780. There
are no costs to respondents other than
their time.

School Associated Violent Death
Surveillance System (0920–0604)—

Background and Brief Description
The Division of Violence Prevention
(DVP), National Center for Injury
Prevention and Control (NCIPC)
proposes to maintain a system for the
surveillance of school-associated
homicides and suicides. The system
will rely on existing public records and
interviews with law enforcement
officials and school officials. The
purpose of the system is to (1) estimate
the rate of school-associated violent
death in the United States and (2)
identify common features of schoolassociated violent deaths. The system
will contribute to the understanding of
fatal violence associated with schools,
guide further research in the area, and
help direct ongoing and future
prevention programs.
Violence is the leading cause of death
among young people, and increasingly
recognized as an important public
health and social issue. In 2006, over
3,200 school aged children (5 to 18
years old) in the United States died
violent deaths due to suicide, homicide,
and unintentional firearm injuries. The
vast majority of these fatal injuries were
not school associated. However,
whenever a homicide or suicide occurs
in or around school, it becomes a matter
of particularly intense public interest
and concern. NCIPC conducted the first
scientific study of school-associated
violent deaths during the 1992–99
academic years to establish the true
extent of this highly visible problem.
Despite the important role of schools as
a setting for violence research and
prevention interventions, relatively
little scientific or systematic work has
PO 00000
Frm 00022
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
been done to describe the nature and
level of fatal violence associated with
schools. Until NCIPC conducted the first
nationwide investigation of violent
deaths associated with schools, public
health and education officials had to
rely on limited local studies and
estimated numbers to describe the
extent of school-associated violent
death.
The system will draw cases from the
entire United States in attempting to
capture all cases of school-associated
violent deaths that have occurred.
Investigators will review public records
and published press reports concerning
each school-associated violent death.
For each identified case, investigators
will also interview an investigating law
enforcement official (defined as a police
officer, police chief, or district attorney),
and a school official (defined as a school
principal, school superintendent, school
counselor, school teacher, or school
support staff) who are knowledgeable
about the case in question. The
investigators will interview 35 school
officials annually. They will also
interview 35 law enforcement officials
annually. Researchers will request
information on both the victim and
alleged offender(s)—including
demographic data, their academic and
criminal records, and their relationship
to one another. They will also collect
data on the time and location of the
death; the circumstances, motive, and
method of the fatal injury; and the
security and violence prevention
activities in the school and community
where the death occurred, before and
after the fatal injury event. The
