ROPS Attributes Identified by Distribution Channel Intermediaries— New—National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description The mission of the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) is to promote safety and health at work for all people through research and prevention. The prevention of traumatic injury is within the purview of NIOSH, and elevated incidence and rates of traumatic injury are found in the farming community. High rates of traumatic injury are associated with the use of older tractors that are not equipped with rollover protective structures (ROPS), which have been proven to reduce tractor-rollovers, a leading cause of injury to agricultural workers. To reduce the incidence of traumatic injury among farm workers, NIOSH proposes to administer statedpreference questionnaires designed to assess preference among a group of PO 00000 Frm 00049 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 tractor-parts dealers in Pennsylvania, New York, New Hampshire and Vermont, who have membership in the Northeast Equipment Dealers’ Association (NEDA). NEDA is a trade group for tractor parts dealers and is active in 12 States in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic States. This information will be used to assess the impediments and barriers to adoption, as well as the incentives, for the distribution and sale of ROPS. ROPS are generally provided to end users by tractor parts dealers, who constitute distribution channel intermediaries between the manufacturer and the consumer. However, little is known about the decision processes that tractor parts dealers follow in deciding whether or not to provide ROPS to end users. The current project will generate ranking scores for the importance given to various items of concern to tractor parts dealers; these most-important items were previously developed through review of relevant research studies. CDC proposes to collect customized information, from 520 NEDA establishments, over a one-month period. This information will be of three kinds: 1. General screening information as to the appropriateness of administering a survey to the respondent organization; 2. Limited respondent perception of the demographic characteristics on the client base served by the NEDA establishment, and 3. Importance ranking of attributes of the process of providing ROPS, or the ROPS configuration itself.

VerDate Mar<15>2010 Number of responses per respondent Number of respondents Form name developmental milestones among parents of 3-year-old children and actively engage them in the monitoring of their child’s development. CDC partnered with Lysol and Reach Out and Read (ROR), a non-profit organization that promotes early literacy among lowincome families by distributing books in pediatric exam rooms, to disseminate copies of Amazing Me to parents. In Spring 2012, 250 of RoR’s largest pediatric clinics each received 300 copies of Amazing Me for distribution to parents of 3-year-old children during well-child visits. Distribution of Amazing Me through RoR practices was used as a vehicle to reach those at higher risk for developmental delays and disabilities: Children insured by Medicaid and children from families with low incomes. Preliminary data gathered from a web survey of RoR clinic staff indicates that clinic staff are not only receptive to but supportive of the Amazing Me book. However, the web survey of RoR clinic staff does not provide information from the book’s target audience: Parents. If CDC wishes to expand book distribution beyond ROR clinic settings, it will be important to gather data on parents’ experiences receiving the Amazing Me book as part of a pediatric visit, and what kind of influence, if any, the book has had on their knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs about developmental milestones. To this end, CDC will identify and recruit three ROR pediatric practices and three non-ROR practices in the greater Atlanta, Georgia and greater Washington, DC areas to distribute copies of Amazing Me to parents/ guardians of 3 year olds, soon to be 3 year olds, or recently turned 4 year olds attending the selected practices. The PO 00000 Frm 00050 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 study will gather feedback from parents/ guardians about (1) their experiences receiving the book as part of a pediatric visit, and (2) the influence of the book on their awareness, attitudes, and selfefficacy regarding monitoring developmental milestones. Findings from the parent web survey and focus groups will help CDC to determine if a children’s book is an effective channel for reaching parents, whether more books like Amazing Me for other age groups should be developed, and if the ROR book distribution model is an effective means to reach low-income and at-risk families. Data will be gathered through a web survey of 900 parents/guardians who have received a copy of the Amazing Me book from participating ROR and nonROR practices. Parents/guardians will access the web survey by logging onto a URL address provided on a sticker affixed to the inside cover of each Amazing Me book. All survey responses (100%) will be submitted through a secure survey Web site established for this project. CDC will also conduct six follow-up focus groups with survey respondents to gather more in-depth information from parents about their experiences reading the Amazing Me book at home with their children and assessing their child’s development using the book. We estimate that we will screen 60 parents/ guardians to recruit 54 participants for the focus groups. These six focus groups will be conducted in greater Atlanta, Georgia (2) and greater Washington, DC (4). This request is submitted to obtain OMB clearance for one year. The estimated annualized burden is 229 hours. There are no costs to the respondents other than their time. E:\FR\FM\24JYN1.SGM 24JYN1

Proposed Project

    ROPS Attributes Identified by Distribution Channel Intermediaries--
New--National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), 
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    The mission of the National Institute for Occupational Safety and 
Health (NIOSH) is to promote safety and health at work for all people 
through research and prevention. The prevention of traumatic injury is 
within the purview of NIOSH, and elevated incidence and rates of 
traumatic injury are found in the farming community. High rates of 
traumatic injury are associated with the use of older tractors that are 
not equipped with rollover protective structures (ROPS), which have 
been proven to reduce tractor-rollovers, a leading cause of injury to 
agricultural workers. To reduce the incidence of traumatic injury among 
farm workers, NIOSH proposes to administer stated-preference 
questionnaires designed to assess preference among a group of tractor-
parts dealers in Pennsylvania, New York, New Hampshire and Vermont, who 
have membership in the Northeast Equipment Dealers' Association (NEDA). 
NEDA is a trade group for tractor parts dealers and is active in 12 
States in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic States. This information will 
be used to assess the impediments and barriers to adoption, as well as 
the incentives, for the distribution and sale of ROPS.
    ROPS are generally provided to end users by tractor parts dealers, 
who constitute distribution channel intermediaries between the 
manufacturer and the consumer. However, little is known about the 
decision processes that tractor parts dealers follow in deciding 
whether or not to provide ROPS to end users. The current project will 
generate ranking scores for the importance given to various items of 
concern to tractor parts dealers; these most-important items were 
previously developed through review of relevant research studies.
    CDC proposes to collect customized information, from 520 NEDA 
establishments, over a one-month period. This information will be of 
three kinds: 1. General screening information as to the appropriateness 
of administering a survey to the respondent organization; 2. Limited 
respondent perception of the demographic characteristics on the client 
base served by the NEDA establishment, and 3. Importance ranking of 
attributes of the process of providing ROPS, or the ROPS configuration 
itself.

    This information will allow CDC to compile a systematic, 
quantifiable inventory of preference data for a group that is 
considered representative of tractor parts dealers nationwide. It will 
also allow CDC to develop recommendations for overcoming the barriers 
that have compromised the effectiveness of occupational health and 
safety programs.
    The total estimated burden for the one-time retrospective data 
collection is 39 hours which is based on a reduced response rate of 90% 
(468 respondents), as indicated in the table below. The average burden 
per response is 5 minutes. There are no costs to respondents other than 
their time.
