participating in three focus groups (in
the form of safety circle workgroup
meetings) that will take approximately
60 minutes. The 60 minutes includes a
30 minute discussion and the
completion of a focus group worksheet
and at one point, a dust control
worksheet. The focus groups will
debrief general CPDM data so
participants can dialogue about ways to
lower their exposure levels. In addition,
workers will be asked to complete a pre
and post survey (∼15 minutes). It also is
estimated that a sample of up to nine
mine site leaders will participate in the
form of interviews/focus groups about
HSMS practices at the same mining
operations which have agreed to
participate, and complete a dust
assessment form. The interviews/focus
groups also will occur two to three
times during each of the NIOSH field
visits and will take no more than 45
minutes each. All participants will be
between the ages of 18 and 75, currently
employed, and living in the United
States. Participation will require no
more than 3 hours of workers’ time over
the six-week intervention and no more
than 2.5 hours of site leaders’ time over
the six-week intervention period.
There is no cost to respondents other
than their time. The total burden in time
is an estimated 64 burden hours.

BACKGROUND: The Advisory Board was

Occupational Illness Compensation
Program Act of 2000 to advise the
President on a variety of policy and
technical functions required to
implement and effectively manage the
new compensation program. Key
functions of the Advisory Board include
providing advice on the development of
probability of causation guidelines that
have been promulgated by the
Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS) as a final rule; advice on
methods of dose reconstruction, which
have also been promulgated by HHS as
a final rule; advice on the scientific
validity and quality of dose estimation
and reconstruction efforts being
performed for purposes of the
compensation program; and advice on
petitions to add classes of workers to the
Special Exposure Cohort (SEC).
In December 2000, the President
delegated responsibility for funding,
staffing, and operating the Advisory
Board to HHS, which subsequently
delegated this authority to CDC. NIOSH
implements this responsibility for CDC.

Committee for Refugees and
Immigrants in Arlington, VA
Office of Refugee Resettlement,
ACF, HHS.
ACTION: Announcement of the award of
a single-source program expansion
supplement to the U.S. Committee for
Refugees and Immigrants (USCRI) to
support expanded services to foreign
trafficking victims, potential trafficking
victims, and certain family members.
AGENCY:
The Administration for
Children and Families (ACF), Office of
Refugee Resettlement (ORR) announces
the award of a single-source program
expansion supplement grant to U.S.
Committee for Refugees and Immigrants
in Arlington, Virginia for a total of
$1,060,805.
The supplemental funding will ensure
that clients’ essential needs, such as
housing, transportation,
communication, food, and medical care,
will be met. The supplemental funding
will also ensure that USCRI has
sufficient staff for the increased number
of cases.
SUMMARY:

The period of support under

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
National Human Trafficking Victim
Assistance Program (NHTVAP) provides
funding for comprehensive case
management services to victims of
trafficking and certain family members
on a per capita basis. The NHTVAP
grantees help clients gain access to
housing, employability services, mental
health screening and therapy, medical
care, and some legal services. During FY
2015, a grantee, U.S. Committee for
Refugees and Immigrants (USCRI),
served more clients than it had planned
for in its budget for the year. Without
the additional funding, USCRI would
have to make significant cuts in services
to current clients and limit the
enrollment of new clients. Also, without
additional funding USCRI would not
have sufficient programmatic support
for the increase in client enrollments.
With the supplemental funding, USCRI
will be able to ensure that all of the
clients’ essential needs will be met.
DATES:
Statutory Authority: Trafficking Victims
Protection Act of 2000 (TVPA), as amended,
Section 107(b)(1)(B), 22 U.S.C. 7105(b)(1)(B),
authorizes funding for benefits and services
to foreign victims of severe forms of
trafficking in persons in the United States,
potential victims of trafficking seeking HHS
Certification, and certain family members.
