Physical risk data will be determined by estimated working posture in the video recording and measured force data using a biomechanical model. Baggage weight information in the airline company baggage record system will be used to estimate the number of baggage handling operations per flight/day to estimate a cumulative risk. annual and monthly questionnaires are 30 and 10 minutes per person, respectively. An informed consent form will be collected one time during the initial enrollment period. An early exit phone interview will be conducted if the respondent decides to leave the study before the end date. The estimated burden of the interview is based on an estimated 20% drop-out rate. There is no cost to respondents other than their time. The burden to respondents is determined by the required minimal sample size and the information necessary for a sound study design. The questionnaires will be completed by respondents during their work time.

The program supports activities that enhance or re-introduce indigenous foods and practices drawn from each grantee’s landscape, history, and culture. Example activities include the cultivation of community gardens, organization of local farmers’ markets, and the dissemination of culturally appropriate health messages through storytelling, audio and video recordings, and printed materials. In addition, the program promotes physical activity initiatives, provides social support for healthy lifestyles, and supports collaboration with other agencies and programs.

Twice per year, each awardee submits a shared data elements (SDE) report to CDC through a Web-based interface. The SDE are organized in three domains: Traditional Local Healthy Foods, Physical Activity, and Social Support for Healthy Lifestyle Change and Maintenance. Reports are submitted to CDC in the spring and fall. The spring 2014 report will be submitted to CDC under the current OMB clearance (OMB No. 0920–0889, exp. 6/30/2014). CDC plans to request OMB approval of a six-month extension of the Traditional Foods information collection, through approximately December 31, 2014. The extension will enable CDC to receive a final report on activities conducted during late spring, summer, and early fall of 2014. Because of the variety of food- and lifestylerelated programs that take place in these seasons, CDC wants to ensure complete and accurate reporting of awardee best practices; and improve dissemination of success stories. The SDE supplements the narrative progress reports that grantees submit to CDC in conjunction with the annual continuation application for funding.

Proposed Project

    Using Traditional Foods and Sustainable Ecological Approaches for 
Health Promotion and Diabetes Prevention in American Indian/Alaska 
Native Communities (OMB No. 0920-0889, exp. 6/30/2014)--Revision--
National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion 
(NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    Type 2 Diabetes was rare among American Indians until the 1950s. 
Since that time, diabetes has become one of the most common and serious 
illnesses among American Indians and Alaska Natives (AI/AN). However, 
dietary management and physical activity can help to prevent or control 
Type 2 diabetes.
    In 2008, the CDC's Native Diabetes Wellness Program (NDWP), in 
consultation with American Indian/Alaska Native (AI/AN) tribal elders, 
issued a funding opportunity announcement (FOA) entitled, ``Using 
Traditional Foods and Sustainable Ecological Approaches for Health 
Promotion and Diabetes Prevention in American Indian/Alaska Native 
Communities.'' The Traditional Foods program was designed to build on 
what is known about traditional ways in order to inform culturally 
relevant, contemporary approaches to diabetes prevention for AI/AN 
communities. The program supports activities that enhance or re-
introduce indigenous foods and practices drawn from each grantee's 
landscape, history, and culture. Example activities include the 
cultivation of community gardens, organization of local farmers' 
markets, and the dissemination of culturally appropriate health 
messages through storytelling, audio and video recordings, and printed 
materials. In addition, the program promotes physical activity 
initiatives, provides social support for healthy lifestyles, and 
supports collaboration with other agencies and programs. Seventeen (17) 
tribal organizations received cooperative agreement funding under the 
initial FOA. Sixteen tribal organizations

applied for a one-year extension that ends September 30, 2014.
    CDC currently collects information from awardees about the 
activities supported with Traditional Foods funding. Twice per year, 
each awardee submits a shared data elements (SDE) report to CDC through 
a Web-based interface. The SDE are organized in three domains: 
Traditional Local Healthy Foods, Physical Activity, and Social Support 
for Healthy Lifestyle Change and Maintenance. Reports are submitted to 
CDC in the spring and fall. The spring 2014 report will be submitted to 
CDC under the current OMB clearance (OMB No. 0920-0889, exp. 6/30/
2014).
    CDC plans to request OMB approval of a six-month extension of the 
Traditional Foods information collection, through approximately 
December 31, 2014. The extension will enable CDC to receive a final 
report on activities conducted during late spring, summer, and early 
fall of 2014. Because of the variety of food- and lifestyle-related 
programs that take place in these seasons, CDC wants to ensure complete 
and accurate reporting of awardee activities conducted the last 5-6 
months of cooperative agreement funding.
    There are no proposed changes to the data collection instrument, 
data collection methodology, or the estimated burden per response. 
Changes to be implemented in this Revision request include: (1) A 
reduction in the number of respondents, from 17 to 16, (2) a change in 
the frequency of reporting (only one SDE report will be received during 
the six-month extension period), and (3) discontinuation of the one-
time retrospective data collection that was part of the initial three-
year clearance request.
    CDC will continue to use the SDE reports to compile a systematic, 
quantifiable inventory of activities, products, and outcomes associated 
with the Traditional Foods program. The SDE also allow CDC to analyze 
aggregate data for improved technical assistance and overall program 
improvement, reporting, and identification of outcomes; allow CDC and 
grantees to create a comprehensive inventory/resource library of 
diabetes primary prevention ideas and approaches for AI/AN communities 
and identify emerging best practices; and improve dissemination of 
success stories. The SDE supplements the narrative progress reports 
that grantees submit to CDC in conjunction with the annual continuation 
application for funding. Although these reports provide important 
contextual information and are useful for local program monitoring, 
they do not support the production of statistical reports that are 
needed to fully describe the Traditional Foods program and to respond 
to various administrative inquiries.
    Respondents will be 16 Tribes and Tribal organizations that receive 
funding through the Traditional Foods program. The SDE will continue to 
be submitted to CDC using Survey Monkey, an electronic Web-based 
interface. The estimated burden per response is two hours. Each grantee 
will receive a personalized advance notification letter, followed by an 
email with a link to the Survey Monkey site.
    Participation in this information collection is required for 
Traditional Foods program awardees. There are no costs to respondents 
other than their time.
