Proposed Collection; Comment
Request; GuLF Worker Study: Gulf
Long-Term Follow-Up Study for Oil
Spill Clean-Up Workers and Volunteers
In compliance with the
requirement of Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995,
for opportunity for public comment on
proposed data collection projects, the
National Institute of Environmental
Health Sciences (NIEHS), the National
Institutes of Health (NIH) will publish
periodic summaries of proposed
projects to be submitted to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and approval.
Proposed Collection: Title: Gulf
Worker Study: Gulf Long-Term FollowUp Study for Oil Spill Clean-Up
Workers and Volunteers. Type of
Information Collection Request: New.
Need and Use of Information Collection:
The purpose of the GuLF Study is to
investigate potential short- and longterm health effects associated with oil
spill clean-up activities and exposures
surrounding the Deepwater Horizon
disaster; and to create a resource for
additional collaborative research on
focused hypotheses or subgroups. Over
55,000 persons participating in oil-spill
clean-up activities have been exposed to
a range of known and suspected toxins
in crude oil, burning oil, and
dispersants, to excessive heat, and
possibly to stress due to widespread
economic and lifestyle disruption.
Exposures range from negligible to
potentially significant, however,
potential long-term human health
consequences are largely unknown due
to insufficient research in this area.
Participants will be recruited from
across job/exposure groups of primarily
English, Spanish, or Vietnamese
speaking adults (accommodations for
other languages developed as
appropriate) who performed oil-spill
clean-up-related work (‘‘exposed’’) and
similar persons who did not

(‘‘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.

Activity (3-yrs)
Frequency of Response: Participation
will include one enrollment telephone
interview (0.5 hr); collection of
biological and environmental samples,
basic clinical measurements, and GPS
coordinates (2.75 hr) from the Active
Follow-up Cohort only; annual contact
information update (0.25; Active and
Passive) or biennial follow-up telephone
or Web interviews (0.5 hr; Active only)
for 10 years or more. We also anticipate
screening 25,000 ineligible respondents.
Affected Public: Individuals or
households. Type of Respondents:
Workers involved in Deepwater Horizon
disaster clean-up, and similar
individuals not involved in clean-up
effort. The annual reporting burden is as
follows: Estimated Number of
Respondents: Active Follow-up Cohort
(N∼27,000) and Passive Follow-up
Cohort (N∼28,000).
Estimated Number of Responses per
Respondent: See table.
Average Burden Hours Per Response:
0.58 hour; and Estimated Total Burden
Hours Requested: 156,000 (over 3 years).
The average annual burden hours
requested is 52,000. The annualized cost
to respondents is estimated at $11.60
(assuming $20 hourly wage × 0.58 hour).
There are no Capital Costs to report.
There are no Operating or Maintenance
Costs to report.
Request for Comments: Written
comments and/or suggestions from the
public and affected agencies are invited
on one or more of the following points:
(1) Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper

performance of the function of the
agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(2) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate
of the burden of the proposed collection
of information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
(3) ways to enhance the quality, utility,
and clarity of the information to be
collected; and (4) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on those who are to respond, including
the use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
