Proposed Project
Healthy Homes and Lead Poisoning
Surveillance System (HHLPSS)—New—

Health (NCEH) and Agency for Toxic
Substances and Disease Registry
(ATSDR)/Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
PO 00000
Frm 00026
Fmt 4703

Background and Brief Description
The overarching goal of the Healthy
Homes and Lead Poisoning Surveillance
System (HHLPSS) is to establish
Healthy Homes Surveillance Systems at
the state and national levels. Currently,
40 state and local Childhood Lead
Poisoning Prevention Programs (CLPPP)
report information (e.g., presence of lead
paint, age of housing, and type of
housing) to CDC via the National Blood
Lead Surveillance System (NBLSS)
(OMB No. 0920–0337, exp. 1/31/2012).
The addition of a new panel of housing
questions would help to provide a more
comprehensive picture of housing stock
in the United States and potentially
modifiable risk factors.
The objectives for developing this
new surveillance system are two-fold.
First, the HHLPSS will allow the CDC
to systematically track how the state and
local programs conduct case
management and follow-up of residents
with housing-related health outcomes.
The next objective for the
development of this system is to
examine potential housing-related risk
factors. Childhood lead poisoning is just
one of many adverse health conditions
that are related to common housing
deficiencies. Multiple hazards in
housing, e.g., mold, vermin, radon and
the lack of safety devices, continue to
adversely affect the health of residents.
It is in the interest of public health to
E:\FR\FM\15NON1.SGM
15NON1
Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 220 / Tuesday, November 15, 2011 / Notices
expand from a single focus on lead
poisoning prevention to a coordinated,
comprehensive, and systematic
approach to eliminating multiple
housing-related health hazards.
HHLPSS builds upon previous efforts
by the NBLSS. While the earlier NBLSS
was focused on homes of children less
than six years old, the new HHLPSS,
upon approval, will replace the NBLSS
and will enable flexibility to evaluate all
homes, regardless of the presence of
children < age 6 years. In addition,
replacement of NBLSS with HHLPSS
instead of a modification is necessary
because the scope and methods of data
70729
collection by the funded state and local
programs can be much different (e.g.,
housing inspections vs. report of blood
lead levels from a laboratory).
There is no cost to respondents other
than their time. The total estimated
annual burden hours equals 640.

Proposed Project
Evaluation of Enhanced
Implementation of the ‘‘Learn the Signs.
Act Early.’’ Campaign in 4 Target
Sites,—New—National Center on Birth
Defects and Developmental Disabilities
(NCBDDD), Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
CDC’s most recent data show that an
average of one in 110 children has an
autism spectrum disorder in 2006.
Today, autism is recognized in many
circles as an ‘‘epidemic’’ or ‘‘crisis’’ that
is directly impacting the lives of many
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 226001
millions of Americans. All the
communities participating in both the
2002 and 2006 studies observed an
increase in identified ASD prevalence
ranging from 27 percent to 95 percent,
with an average increase of 57 percent.
No single factor explains the changes in
identified ASD prevalence over the time
period studied. Although some of the
increases are due to better detection, a
true increase in risk cannot be ruled out.
Evidence has shown that early
treatment can have a significant positive
impact on the long-term outcome for
children with an autism spectrum
disorder. Early treatment, however,
generally relies on the age at which a
diagnosis can be made, thus pushing
early identification research into a
category of high public health priority
(Pierce, et al, 2010).
To address this important health
issue, the CDC has launched the ‘‘Learn
the Signs. Act Early.’’ national campaign
and developed partnerships with
national autism and health care
professional organizations to promote
awareness of early childhood
developmental milestones and increase
early action on developmental concerns.
This request for data collection is for
the evaluation of the ‘‘Learn the Signs.
Act Early.’’ campaign implemented at a
local level among four grantees. The
proposed evaluation will assess the
reach and awareness to determine if the
proposed strategies and activities are
effectively reaching the target
populations. The evaluation will be
accomplished by a pre-implementation
survey and a post-implementation
survey of parents of children ages 0–60
months in the target areas for each of the
four grantees.
The surveys will capture information
from the program’s target audience to
determine campaign reach and exposure
among this group, as well as identify
changes in knowledge, awareness, and

behavior related to the campaign and
monitoring early child development.
The project aims to collect 250
completed parent surveys from each of
the 4 sites prior to campaign
implementation and after campaign
implementation (for a total of 1,000
completed surveys). It is estimated that
1200 respondents will have to be
screened in order to recruit 1000 total
survey participants.
Participants will be recruited to
participate in one of two surveys that
will be conducted in the following four
target areas:
• Washington: Yakima, Benton,
Franklin, and Walla Walla counties
• Missouri: St. Louis City
• Utah: Salt Lake County
• Alaska: Anchorage, Palmer,
Wasilla, Homer, Kenai
The information collected from the
surveys is not intended to provide
statistical data for publication. The
purpose of this activity is solely to
assess the impact of the ‘‘Learn the
Signs. Act Early.’’ campaign in four
target areas. The data collection will use
a consistent format and comply with
requirements under the Public Health
Service Act, Executive Order 12862, and
GPRA.
Without this information collection,
CDC will be hampered in successfully
carrying out its mission of providing
high quality programs and services to
populations served. Failure to collect
this data would compromise efforts to
reduce the impact of ASDs and other
developmental disabilities on the U.S.
population.
Data collection materials will be
available in both English and Spanish.
This request is being submitted to
obtain OMB clearance for two years.
There is no cost to the respondents
other than their time to participate. The
total annualized burden for this project
is 454 hours.
