Proposed Project
Registration of Individuals Displaced
by the Hurricanes Katrina and Rita
(Pilot Project)—New—Agency for Toxic
Substances and Disease Registry
(ATSDR), Office of Noncommunicable
Diseases, Injury, and Environmental
Health (ONDIEH), Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
On August 29, 2005, Hurricane
Katrina made landfall on the coast of the
Gulf of Mexico near New Orleans,
Louisiana, and became one of the most
deadly and destructive storms in U.S.
history. Also occurring in 2005,
Hurricane Rita was the fourth-most
intense Atlantic hurricane ever recorded
and the most intense tropical cyclone

ever observed in the Gulf of Mexico.
Following the initial phase of the
response, the Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) assumed
the primary role for housing displaced
persons over the intermediate term. To
support those needing temporary
housing, FEMA provided over 143,000
travel trailers, park homes, and mobile
homes for persons displaced by the
above mentioned storms. However,
some persons living in trailers
complained of an odor or of eye or
respiratory tract irritation.
FEMA entered into an Interagency
Agreement with the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC)/ATSDR
on August 16, 2007 to conduct a
comprehensive public health
assessment, based on objective and
credible research, of air quality
conditions present in FEMA housing
units to guide FEMA policy makers and
inform the public as to the actual
conditions in the field and any actions
required to better promote a safe and
healthful environment for the disaster
victims FEMA housed in the units.
FEMA’s agreement with the CDC
includes an initial formaldehyde
exposure assessment as well as a
subsequent long-term study of the
health effects among residents if
feasible. Formaldehyde testing
conducted and evaluated by the CDC
pursuant to the initial exposure
assessment has identified the need to
evaluate the feasibility of establishing a
national registry to identify and monitor
the health of disaster victims who
occupied FEMA-provided temporary
housing units. The establishment of
such a registry would complement the
long-term health effects study set forth
in the FEMA–CDC Interagency
Agreement.

The goal of the proposed pilot registry
will be to test the feasibility of
contacting and enrolling members of the
targeted group in a registry.
A pre-registration dataset will be
created before enrollment. This dataset
will be populated with contact
information of the exposed
population—occupants of temporary
housing units. FEMA will provide the
dataset for this pilot registry.
A computer-assisted telephone
interview (CATI) system based on a
paper questionnaire will be used during

all interviews to collect data for this
project. The first part will consist of
screening questions to determine
eligibility for enrollment. The second
part will contain contact information of
the registrant and other household
members, demographics, and health
status questions focusing on respiratory
outcomes and cancer.
The registry will include respondents
who occupied FEMA-provided
temporary housing units. The twominute screening questionnaire will be
administered to a total of 8,000

respondents. Annualized over a two
year period, 4,000 respondents will be
screened. The 25 minute main
questionnaire will be administered to a
total of 5,000 respondents. Annualized
over a two year period, 2,500 temporary
housing unit occupants will complete
the main questionnaire.
There are no costs to the respondents
other than their time. The total
estimated annual burden hours are
1176.

[FR Doc. 2011–7580 Filed 3–30–11; 8:45 am]
CDC began formally partnering with
CBOs in the late 1980s to expand the
reach of HIV prevention efforts. CBOs
were, and continue to be, recognized as
important partners in HIV prevention
because of their history and credibility
with target populations and their access
to groups that may not be easily
reached. Over time, CDC’s program for
HIV prevention by CBOs has grown in
size, scope, and complexity to respond
to changes in the epidemic, including
the diffusion and implementation of
Effective Behavioral Interventions (EBIs)
for HIV prevention.
CDC’s EBIs have been shown to be
effective under controlled research
environments, but there is limited data
on intervention implementation and
client outcomes in real-world settings
(as implemented by CDC-funded CBOs).
The purpose of CMEP–Respect is to (a)
improve the performance of CDCfunded CBOs delivering particular
individual- or group-level behavioral
interventions by monitoring changes in
clients’ self-reported HIV transmission
risk behaviors after participating in the
intervention; and (b) assess the fidelity
of the implementation of the selected
intervention at the CBO. The project
also plans to conduct process
monitoring of the delivery of the
intervention in terms of recruitment,

retention, data collection, data entry,
and data management. Four CBOs will
receive supplemental funding under PS
10–1003 over a five-year period to
participate in CMEP–Respect.
From July 1, 2011 to June 30, 2015,
CBOs will conduct outcome and process
monitoring for this project. Each agency
will recruit 400 men who are 18 years
of age and older, report having had anal
sex with a male in the last 12 months,
and are enrolled in Respect to
participate in CMEP–Respect. Each
participant will complete a 20 minute,
self administered, computer based
interview prior to their participation in
the Respect intervention and an 18
minute, self administered, computer
based interview at two follow-up time
points (90- and 180-days following the
Respect intervention) to assess their HIV
and STD related attitudes and
behavioral risks. CBOs will be expected
to retain 80% of these participants at
both follow-up interviews.
Throughout the project, funded CBOs
will be responsible for managing the
daily procedures of CMEP–Respect to
ensure that all required activities are
performed, all deadlines are met, and
quality assurance plans, policies and
procedures are upheld. CBOs will be
responsible for participating in all CDCsponsored grantee meetings related to
CMEP–Respect. There are no costs to
the respondents other than their time.
The total estimated annual burden
hours are 342.
