(‘‘unexposed’’ controls), and followed in
either an Active Follow-up Cohort
(N∼27,000) or a Passive Follow-up
Cohort (N∼28,000). Exposures will be
estimated using detailed job-exposure
matrices developed from data from
monitoring performed by different
agencies and organizations during the
crisis, information obtained by
interview, and the available scientific
literature. We will investigate acute
health effects among all cohort members
via self-report from the enrollment
interview, and via clinical measures and
biological samples from Active Followup Cohort members only. All cohort
members will be followed for
development of a range of health
outcomes through record linkage (e.g.,
cancer, mortality) and possibly through
linkage with routinely collected health
surveillance data (collected by health
departments and the CDC) or with
electronic medical records. Recruitment
of subjects should begin in late 2010,
with telephone interviews and the
baseline home visits conducted within
18 months.

ADDRESSES:
The Final
EA evaluated the acquisition of
approximately 507 acres of real estate
containing the CDC/NIOSH’s Lake Lynn
Experimental Mine located in Springhill
Township, Pennsylvania. The EA also
evaluated the construction for a new
access road and new entry access mine
tunnels servicing the Experimental
Mine. The purpose and need of the
proposed acquisition and construction
improvements secures the currently
leased Experimental Mine for the longterm continuation of mine health and
safety research currently conducted at
the site.
The Final EA has been prepared in
accordance with the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of
1969. Based on the results of the EA,
CDC has issued a Finding of No
Significant Impact (FONSI) indicating
that the proposed action will not have
a significant impact on the environment.
Minimization and mitigating measures
will include: compliance with
applicable regulatory laws, procedures,
and permits for stream crossings;
conduct presence absence surveys for
identified wildlife; implementation of
avoidance plan for a previously
recorded archeological site near area of
proposed access road construction; and
the application of best management
practices (BMP) to minimize short term
air quality and noise impact during
roadway and access mine tunnel
construction.
