Background Between the mid-1980s and early 1990s, reports of TB in the United States increased, after years of decline. This increase was associated with a weakened network of TB services; the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) epidemic; increased immigration of persons from endemic areas for TB; transmission of TB in surroundings with higher risk of exposure (e.g., hospitals, prisons); and the emergence of drugresistant TB. However, reported TB cases substantially decreased in the mid- to late 1990s with renewed efforts on TB control and prevention, and a major focus on resources. In 2000, The National Academy of Sciences’ Institute of Medicine (IOM) issued a report1 concluding that TB can be eliminated as a public health threat in the United States with appropriate funding for additional prevention and control programs, and development of new tools. In 2003, the Federal TB Task Force (FTBTF) issued a plan2 to implement the IOM recommendations. A reconvened FTBTF issued a plan in 20093 specifically for combating multidrug-resistant TB (MDR TB) and extensively drug-resistant TB (XDR TB). Both plans addressed domestic and global strategies, including partnerships with global agencies, as well as detailed action steps and specific agency roles. II. Purpose of the Public Workshop The workshop is intended to provide an environment for FDA, CDC, and NAID to engage other interested parties in identifying intellectual and procedural gaps in the current development of TB diagnostic tests, and in exploring models and strategies that would expedite the development of new diagnostic tests and biomarkers for TB. Invited experts will address current research and its barriers; both regulatory and scientific perspectives on the development of new diagnostic tests and biomarkers for TB; resources for developing new TB diagnostic tests; and components of and requirements for a TB specimen repository.

The National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) is authorized by Public Law 90– 448 (1968) and expanded by Public Law 93–234 (1973). The National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 requires that the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) provide flood insurance. Title 44 CFR 60.3, Floodplain management criteria for flood-prone areas, ensures that communities participating in the NFIP, in Special Flood Hazard Areas (SFHAs), have basement construction at the lowest floor elevation or above the 100 year flood elevation, or Base Flood Elevation. This requirement is to reduce the risks of flood hazards to new buildings in SFHAs and reduce insurance rates. Title 44 CFR 60.6(c) allows communities to apply for an exception to permit and certify the construction of flood proof residential basements in SFHAs. This certification must ensure that the community has demonstrated that the areas of special flood hazard, in which residential basements will be permitted, are subject to shallow and low velocity flooding and adequate flood warning time to notify residents of impending floods.
