Reduction Act Review
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) publishes a list of
information collection requests under
review by the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) in compliance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.
Chapter 35). To request a copy of these
requests, call the CDC Reports Clearance
Officer at (404) 639–5960 or send an email to omb@cdc.gov. Send written
comments to CDC Desk Officer, Office of
Management and Budget, Washington,
DC or by fax to (202) 395–5806. Written
comments should be received within 30
days of this notice.
Proposed Project
Improving the Quality and Delivery of
CDC’s Heart Disease and Stroke
Prevention Programs—New—Division
for Heart Disease and Stroke Prevention
(DHDSP), National Center for Chronic
Disease Prevention and Health
Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Heart disease and stroke are among
the most widespread and costly causes
of death and disability in the U.S., but
are also among the most preventable
health problems. In 2006, CDC created
the Division of Heart Disease and Stroke
Prevention (DHDSP) to provide national
leadership for efforts to reduce the
burden of disease, disability, and death
from heart disease and stroke.
Many heart disease and stroke
prevention and control activities are
conducted through DHDSP-funded heart
disease and stroke prevention programs.
The DHDSP’s key partners include state
and local health departments, public
health organizations, community
organizations, nonprofit organizations,
and professional organizations. The
DHDSP supports partners by conducting
trainings, providing scientific guidance
and technical assistance, and producing
scientific information and supporting
tools. For example, the DHDSP provides
training to States on how to implement
and evaluate their programs and
provides guidance on how to best apply
evidence-based practices. In addition,
the DHDSP translates its scientific
studies into informational products,
such as on-line reports and trend data.
The DHDSP requests OMB approval
of a generic clearance to support a
variety of information collections
needed to assess the relevance, quality
and impact of DHDSP trainings,
technical assistance, and products. The
generic clearance will provide a
common framework for many of
DHDSP’s planning and evaluation
activities and enhance DHDSP’s ability
to coordinate information collection
with product releases, professional
conferences, and other events. The
information to be collected will allow
the DHDSP to identify new
programmatic opportunities and
respond quickly to partners’ concerns in
a timely manner. Whenever feasible,
DHDSP will collect information
electronically to reduce burden.
Information may also be collected
through in-person or telephone
interviews or focus groups when webbased surveys are impractical or when
in-depth responses are required.
Respondents will be DHDSP’s
partners in State and local government
as well as partner organizations in the
private sector. The DHDSP estimates
that it will collect information each year
from approximately 506 respondents
through web-based surveys,
approximately 406 respondents through
interviews, and approximately 64
respondents through focus groups. No
one type of respondent will be asked to
participate in more than two surveys,
interviews, or focus groups annually.
The length of online surveys will be
limited to 30 minutes and in-person
interviews and focus groups limited to
one hour or less.
CDC requests OMB approval of the
generic clearance for three years. The
initial generic information collection
request describes plans to conduct two
specific surveys. An additional
information collection request, outlining
purpose, respondents and methodology,
will be submitted to OMB for each
subsequent information collection
activity.
The information to be collected will
be used to determine whether DHDSP
activities and products are reaching the
intended audiences, whether they are
deemed to be useful by those audiences,
and whether DHDSP efforts improve
public health practice.
There are no costs to respondents
other than their time. The total
estimated annualized burden hours are
723.

Proposed Project
The Green Housing Study:
Environmental health impacts on
women and children in low-income
multifamily housing—New—National
Center for Environmental Health
(NCEH) and Agency for Toxic
Substances and Disease Registry
(ATSDR)/Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
This study directly supports the
Healthy Homes’ health protection goal
of the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC). This investigation is
also consistent with CDC’s Health
Protection Research Agenda, which
calls for research to identify the major
environmental causes of disease and
disability and related risk factors.
The efficacy of green building design
features in reducing allergens and toxic
substances within the home has been
assumed based on conventional
wisdom. A better understanding is
needed of the extent to which greenbuilt, low-income housing actually
reduces exposures to these compounds
when compared to standard-built, lowincome housing. In addition, this study
may provide insight into how specific
green building practices (e.g., use of low
chemical-emitting paints and carpets)
may influence levels of substances in
the home (such as volatile organic
compounds (VOCs). A study
investigating these topics would provide
a solid foundation upon which to
explore green affordable housing’s
potential to promote healthy homes
principles.
The title of this study has changed
since publication of the initial 60-day
Federal Register Notice (FRN); however,
the goals remain the same. These goals
will be accomplished in ongoing
building renovation programs sponsored
by the Department of Housing and
Urban Development (HUD). In
partnership with HUD, the CDC will
leverage opportunities to collect survey
and biomarker data from residents and
to collect environmental measurements
in homes in order to evaluate
associations between green housing and
health.
Participants will include pregnant
women and children living in HUDsubsidized housing that has either been
rehabilitated in a green (e.g., case) or a
traditional manner (e.g., control) from
study sites across the United States. The
following are eligible for the study: (1)
688 children (age 7–12 years with
asthma); (2) 688 children (less than or
equal to 6 years); (3) 688 pregnant
women; and (4) 688 mothers of the
children enrolled. Pregnant women and
children with asthma (ages 7–12 years)
will donate blood samples (for
assessment of allergy) and urine
samples (for assessment of pesticide and
VOC exposures). The children with
asthma (ages 7–12 years) will be also
tested for lung function and lung
inflammatory markers. The length of
follow-up is one year. Questionnaires
regarding home characteristics and
respiratory symptoms will be
administered at 6-month intervals.
Environmental sampling of the air and
dust in the participants’ homes will be
conducted over a 1-year period (once in
the home before rehabilitation (baseline
I), and then at three time points after
rehabilitation has been completed:
Baseline II, 6 months, and 12 months).
Environmental sampling includes
measurements of air exchange rate,
pesticides, VOCs, indoor allergens,
fungi, temperature, humidity, and
particulate matter.
Approximately 1,600 adults (800
mothers and 800 pregnant women) will
complete the screening forms. We
assume after screening, some women
will not be eligible (an estimate of
roughly 15%). With an anticipated loss
to follow-up in our study of 20%, we
will recruit 688 asthmatic children (age
7–12 years) and their mothers. We will
also recruit 688 pregnant women. In
addition, children age 0–6 years could
also be enrolled if a household already
has an enrolled participant. In
summary, expected overall response
rate could range from 69%–86% for
each of the eligible types of women
participating in the study from
screening through the end of data
collection. The number and type of
respondents that will complete the
questionnaires are as follows: (1) 688
mothers of enrolled children—from ages
0–6 yrs and/or children with asthma
(ages 7–12 years) and (2) 688 pregnant
women—with or without eligible
children. All health and environmental
exposure information about children
will be provided by their mothers (i.e.,
no children will fill out questionnaires).
Children ages 0–6 years are only
recruited if their enrolled mother is
pregnant or their mother also has an
enrolled child with asthma between the
ages 7–12 years. The total estimated
annual burden hours equals 3,878.
There is no cost to the respondents
other than their time to participate in
the study.
