Proposed Project
Musculoskeletal Disorder (MSD)
Intervention Effectiveness in Wholesale/
Retail Trade Operations—New—
National Institute for Occupational
Safety and Health (NIOSH), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
For the current study, the National
Institute for Occupational Safety and
Health (NIOSH) and the Ohio Bureau of
Workers Compensation (OBWC) will
collaborate on a multi-site intervention
study at OBWC-insured wholesale/retail
trade (WRT) companies from 2011–
2014. In overview, MSD engineering
control interventions [stair-climbing,
powered hand trucks (PHT) and
powered truck lift gates (TLG)] will be
tested for effectiveness in reducing selfreported back and upper extremity pain
among 960 employees performing
delivery operations in 72 WRT
establishments using a prospective
experimental design (multiple baselines
across groups with randomization). The
costs of the interventions will be funded
through existing OBWC funds and
participating establishments. This study
will provide important information that
is not currently available elsewhere on
the effectiveness of OSH interventions
for WRT workers.
Twenty-four OBWC-insured WRT
establishments will be recruited from
each of three total employee categories
(<20 employees, 20–99 employees, and
100+ employees) for a total of 72
establishments with 3,240 employees.
The study sub-sample (people, work
groups or workplaces chosen from the
sampling frame) will be volunteer
employees at OBWC-insured WRT
establishments who perform material
handling tasks related to the delivery
operations of large items (such as
appliances, furniture, vending
machines, furnaces, or water heaters)
that are expected to be impacted by the
powered hand truck (PHT) and truck lift
gate (TLG) interventions. It is estimated
that there will be 960 impacted
employees in the recruited
establishments, which will be paired
according to previous WC loss history
and establishment size. Within each
pair, one establishment will be
randomly chosen to receive the PHT or

TLG intervention in the first phase, and
the other will serve as a matched control
until it receives the same intervention
12 months later.
The main outcomes for this study are
self-reported low back pain and upper
extremity pain collected using surveys
every three months over a two-year
period from volunteer WRT delivery
workers at participating establishments.
Individuals will also be asked to report
usage of the interventions and material
handling exposures every three months
over two years. Individuals will also be
asked to complete an annual health
assessment survey at baseline, and once
annually for two years. A 20% sample
of survey participants will also be asked
to participate in a clinical assessment of
low back function at baseline, and once
annually for two years. In order to
maximize efficiency and reduce burden,
a web-based survey is proposed for the
majority (95%) of survey data
collection. All collected information
will be used to determine whether there
are significant differences in reported
musculoskeletal pain and functional
back pain score ratios (pre/post
intervention scores) when intervention
and control groups are compared, while
controlling for covariates. Once the
study is completed, results will be made
available through the NIOSH internet
site and peer-reviewed publications.
In summary, this study will determine
the effectiveness of the tested MSD
interventions for WRT delivery workers
and enable evidence based prevention
practices to be shared with the greatest
audience possible. NIOSH expects to
complete data collection in 2014. There
is no cost to respondents other than
their time. The total estimated annual
burden hours are 1,500.

Title: Refugee Assistance Program
Estimates CMA—ORR–1.
OMB No.: 0970–0030.
Description: The ORR–1, Cash and
Medical Assistance (CMA) Program
Estimates, is the application for grants
under the CMA program. The
application is required by the Office of
Refugee Resettlement (ORR) program
regulations at 45 CFR 400.11(b). The
regulation specifies that States must
submit, as their application for this
program, estimates of the projected costs
they anticipate incurring in providing
cash and medical assistance for eligible
recipients and the costs of administering
the program. Under the CMA program,
States are reimbursed for the costs of
providing these services and benefits for
eight months after an eligible recipient
arrives in this country. The eligible
recipients for these services and benefits
are refugees, Amerasians, Cuban and
Haitian Entrants, asylees, Afghans and
Iraqi with Special Immigrant Visas, and
victims of a severe form of trafficking.
States that provide services for
unaccompanied refugee minors also
provide an estimate for the cost of these
services for the year for which they are
applying for a grant.

Title: Low Income Home Energy
Assistance Program (LIHEAP) Carryover
and Reallotment Report.
OMB No.: 0970–0106.
Description: The LIHEAP statute and
regulations require LIHEAP grantees to
report certain information to HHS
concerning funds forwarded and funds
subject to reallotment. The 1994
reauthorization of the LIHEAP statute,
the Human Service Amendments of
1994 (Pub. L. 103–252), requires that the
Carryover and Reallotment Report for
one fiscal year be submitted to HHS by
the grantee before the allotment for the
next fiscal year may be awarded.
The Administration for Children and
Families is requesting no changes in the
collection of data with the Carryover
and Reallotment Report, a form for the
collection of data, and the Simplified
Instructions for Timely Obligations of
LIHEAP Funds and Reporting Funds for
Carryover and Reallotment. The form
clarifies the information being requested
and ensures the submission of all the
required information. The form
facilitates our response to numerous
queries each year concerning the
amounts of obligated funds. Use of the
form is voluntary. Grantees have the
option to use another format.
Respondents: State Governments,
Tribal Governments, Insular Areas, the
District of Columbia, and the
Commonwealth of Puerto Rico.
