Number of responses per respondent Number of respondents Form name This project involves a questionnaire, along with clinical testing, to investigate and characterize the nature of lung disease occurring in popcorn and flavoring workers. Since publication of the 60-day Federal Register Notice, the annual burden estimate has been revised. We added the inclusion of job and medication forms to be completed by the participant prior to the testing session. We also included the time needed to review the informed consent. The overall burden hours is now estimated to be 115 hours. The purpose of this study is to investigate the spectrum of lung disease occurring in flavoring and microwave popcorn workers. A secondary aim is to study the natural history of lung disease. For this study, we plan on interviewing and conducting clinical testing on participants from a previously investigated flavoring plant and microwave popcorn plant. For this study, we will recruit participants from two study populations: Approximately 112 Average burden per response (in hr) 3 5/60 workers from a flavorings plant for whom we have spirometry data and 132 workers that had abnormal spirometry on any test from a previous NIOSH health hazard evaluation at a microwave popcorn plant. Thirty additional workers from the microwave popcorn plant who had normal spirometry on their last test also will be chosen at random. NIOSH anticipates that information collection will begin in the 2013 fiscal year for the microwave popcorn workers and for the flavorings workers in fiscal year 2014. Prior to the testing, participants will be mailed a copy of the informed consent to review and asked to complete a job history form and current medication form. This will take no more than 25 minutes (total) to review and complete. On the day of testing, a NIOSH staff member will review the consent form with the participant, which will take about 5 minutes. Participants will then be given a NIOSH-administered questionnaire which will take approximately 20 minutes to complete. All study results will be stored at NIOSH. Participation in all components of the study is completely voluntary. There are no costs to the respondents other than their time. The total estimated annual burden hours are 115.

Please make reference to CDC–2013–0007 and Docket Number NIOSH–233. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background: The NIOSH Alert: Preventing Occupational Exposures to Antineoplastic and Other Hazardous Drugs in Health Care Settings was published in September 2004 (https:// www.cdc.gov/niosh/docs/2004-165/). This Alert contained Appendix A which was a list of drugs that were deemed to be hazardous and may require special handling. This list of hazardous drugs was updated in 2010 and 2012 and covered all new approved drugs and drugs with new warning up to December 2009. (https://www.cdc.gov/ niosh/docs/2010-167/; https:// www.cdc.gov/niosh/docs/2012-150/). Between January 2010 and December 2011, 48 new drugs received FDA approval and 276 drugs received special warnings (usually black box warnings) based on reported adverse effects in patients. From this list of 324 drugs, 42 drugs were identified by NIOSH as candidate hazardous drugs. Four of these drugs had safe handling recommendations from the manufacturer and NIOSH is following the recommendations of the manufacturers. Therefore, these four drugs will be listed as hazardous without requiring further review. A panel consisting of peer reviewers and stakeholders was asked to review and comment on the remaining 38 potentially hazardous drugs. In addition, the panel members were asked to comment on the addition of one drug requested by several stakeholders and the removal of one drug from the 2012 Hazardous Drug List. Reviewers were not asked to provide a consensus opinion and NIOSH made the final determination regarding additions and deletions to the 2014 hazardous drug list. NIOSH reviewed the recommendations of the peer reviewers and stakeholders and determined that 24 drugs in addition to the 4 drugs with manufacturer’s warnings, were determined to have one or more characteristics of a hazardous drug and this list of 28 drugs is being published for comment in CDC–2013–0007 and NIOSH Docket Number 233. In addition, 1 drug from the 2012 Hazardous Drug List is being considered for removal. The complete list of these drugs can be found at: https://www.regulations.gov as a supporting document.

Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    This project involves a questionnaire, along with clinical testing, 
to investigate and characterize the nature of lung disease occurring in 
popcorn and flavoring workers. Since publication of the 60-day Federal 
Register Notice, the annual burden estimate has been revised. We added 
the inclusion of job and medication forms to be completed by the 
participant prior to the testing session. We also included the time 
needed to review the informed consent. The overall burden hours is now 
estimated to be 115 hours.
    The purpose of this study is to investigate the spectrum of lung 
disease occurring in flavoring and microwave popcorn workers. A 
secondary aim is to study the natural history of lung disease. For this 
study, we plan on interviewing and conducting clinical testing on 
participants from a previously investigated flavoring plant and 
microwave popcorn plant.
    For this study, we will recruit participants from two study 
populations: Approximately 112 workers from a flavorings plant for whom 
we have spirometry data and 132 workers that had abnormal spirometry on 
any test from a previous NIOSH health hazard evaluation at a microwave 
popcorn plant. Thirty additional workers from the microwave popcorn 
plant who had normal spirometry on their last test also will be chosen 
at random.
    NIOSH anticipates that information collection will begin in the 
2013 fiscal year for the microwave popcorn workers and for the 
flavorings workers in fiscal year 2014. Prior to the testing, 
participants will be mailed a copy of the informed consent to review 
and asked to complete a job history form and current medication form. 
This will take no more than 25 minutes (total) to review and complete. 
On the day of testing, a NIOSH staff member will review the consent 
form with the participant, which will take about 5 minutes.
