Background and Brief Description
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention requests approval for a 3year clearance to collect data using
rapid qualitative inquiries to understand
issues related to HIV prevention, care,
and treatment in the United States.
Rapid inquiries are concentrated data
collection and iterative data analytic
efforts focused on timely and relevant
responses to urgent issues and research
questions. Although we will collect the
PO 00000
Frm 00032
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
majority of data using qualitative
methods, many studies covered under
this generic information collection, will
involve a mixed methods approach for
data collection.
The rapid inquiries will include
multiple well-established qualitative
methodologies, which may include but
not be limited to in-depth individual
interviews, focus groups, direct
observations, case studies, document
reviews, or brief quantitative surveys
assessing demographics, behaviors,
attitudes, intentions, beliefs, or other
attributes of the respondents. In some
assessments, additional contextual
information may be collected, such as
information about the respondents’
community, workplaces, or
organizations and places where they
interact. CDC expects to collect
qualitative data from approximately
1,800 respondents, assuming three
research studies per year with each
research study collecting data from 200
respondents.
For all proposed studies under this
generic information collection, our
efforts are expected to provide insight
regarding a wide array of HIV-related
programs designed for various
populations throughout the United
States, including but not limited to:
Persons living with HIV/AIDS (PLWH);
persons at elevated risk for acquiring
new HIV infection or transmitting
existing HIV infection to others;
clinicians or other HIV care providers;
men who have sex with men (MSM);
transgender persons; injection and
noninjection drug users; incarcerated
populations or ex-prisoners; commercial
sex workers; male and female
heterosexual groups at high risk for HIV
infection; and other providers and
organizations (e.g., health departments,
community-based organizations, public
and private health clinics, advocacy
groups, community groups, or other
governmental and nongovernmental
organizations) serving or otherwise
interacting with persons at greatest need
for HIV prevention, care, and treatment.
Recruitment procedures will vary
slightly based on the target population
and research design of each information
collection submitted under this generic
information collection. Partner
organizations such as public and private
health clinics and community-based
organizations that serve the target
populations in the respective geographic
locations may be contacted for their
assistance in recruitment of potential
respondents. Respondents may be
identified and selected as key
informants and invited to participate by
contractor staff members.

Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 102 / Thursday, May 28, 2015 / Notices
Sampling recruitment methods may
include, but not be limited to: Use of
social networking sites, the Internet,
print marketing materials, and other
methods to find and enroll respondents
into the research study.
All data collection tools will be
pretested and interviews conducted by
trained personnel. The data collection
will take place at a time and place that
is convenient to the respondent.
Locations will be private. Data
collection may be audio-recorded and
transcribed with the consent of the
respondent.
The data collections supported under
this generic information collection will
be used to provide insight regarding
barriers and facilitators to HIV
prevention, care, and treatment in the
United States and territories, and thus
suggest ways CDC might improve
programmatic activities along the
continuum of HIV prevention, treatment
and care.
The total estimated annualized
burden hours are 918. There are no costs
to respondents other than their time.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 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, 2012 and 2014 and covered all
new approved drugs and drugs with
new warnings up to December 2011
(https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/docs/2014138). Between January 2012 and
December 2013, 60 new drugs received
FDA approval and 270 drugs received
new warnings based on reported
adverse effects in patients. From this list
of 330 drugs, 44 drugs were identified
by NIOSH as potential hazardous drugs.
In addition to these 44 drugs, the panel
members were asked to comment on the
addition of one drug requested by
several stakeholders. Three additional
drugs had safe handling
recommendations from the
manufacturer and NIOSH is following
these recommendations. Therefore,
these 3 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 45 potentially
hazardous drugs. Reviewers were not
asked to provide a consensus opinion
