Proposed Project A Study of Viral Persistence in Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) Survivors—Existing Information Collection Without an OMB Control Number—National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases (NCEZID), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description Much progress has been made in the year since the CDC first responded to the Ebola outbreak in West Africa, but the agency’s efforts must continue until there are zero new cases of Ebola virus disease (EVD). As the CDC’s 2014 Ebola virus response maintains the international goal of zero new EVD cases in 2015, the agency must intensify its efforts to identify and prevent every potential route of human disease transmission and to understand the most current community barriers to reaching that final goal. Persistence of Ebola Virus (EBOV) in Body Fluids of EVD Survivors in Sierra Leone is the first systematic examination of the post-recovery persistence of EBOV and the risks of transmission from a cohort of convalescent Ebola survivors during close or intimate contact. It is important to fully understand how long the virus stays active in body fluids other than blood in order to target and refine public health interventions to arrest the ongoing spread of disease. The research study is comprised of three modules based on the body fluids to be studied: A pilot module of adult males (semen) and two full modules: Module A of adult men and women repeating collections and questionnaires every two weeks (semen, vaginal secretions, and saliva, tears, sweat, urine, rectal swab), and Module B of lactating adult women repeating collections and questionnaires every three days (sweat and breast milk). Participants for each module will be recruited by trained study staff from Ebola treatment units (ETUs) and survivor registries. Participants will be followed up at study sites in government hospitals. Specimens will be tested for EBOV ribonucleic acid (RNA) by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction test (RT–PCR) in Sierra Leone at the CDC laboratory facility in Bo. All positive RT–PCR samples will be sent to CDC Atlanta for virus isolation. Each body fluid will be collected until two negative RT–PCR results are obtained. Participants will be followed until all their studied body fluids are negative. They will receive tokens of appreciation for their participation at the initial visit and again at every subsequent follow-up visit [e.g., 120,000 Leones (approximately $28 US dollars) and a supply of condoms]. For Module A, men and women will be recruited in equal numbers for this study until more information on gender effects of viral persistence is available. A trained study data manager will collect test results for all participants in a laboratory results form. Results and analyses are needed to update relevant counseling messages and recommendations from the Sierra Leone Ministry of Health, World Health Organization, and CDC. The study will provide the most current information that is critical to the development of public health measures, such as recommendations about sexual activity, breastfeeding, and other routine activities and approaches to evaluation of survivors to determine whether they can safely resume sexual activity. These approaches in turn are expected to reduce the risk of Ebola resurgence and mitigate stigma for thousands of survivors. The information is likewise critical to reducing the risk that Ebola would be introduced in a location that has not previously been affected. The total burden hours requested for the research study in Sierra Leone is 2,474 hours incurred by 530 participants. There are no costs to the respondents other than their time.

AGENCY: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), is issuing this notice to advise the public that HHS/CDC has prepared and approved on March 22, 2016, a Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) based on the Final Environmental Assessment for proposed improvements on the HHS/CDC Fort Collins Campus. HHS/CDC prepared the Final EA in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA), as amended (42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.), the Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) implementing regulations (40 CFR parts 1500–1508) and the HHS General Administration Manual (GAM) Part 30 Environmental Procedures, dated February 25, 2000. HHS/CDC has determined that the proposed action would not have a significant impact on the human or natural environment and therefore, the preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement is not required.

The Final EA analyzed the effects of the Build Alternative (Proposed Action) and the No Build Alternative. The Build Alternative consists of improvements to the CDC Fort Collins Campus which entails the construction of a new approximately 5,600 gsf building which will house laboratory support freezer space and communal space, upgrades to existing parking areas and additional infrastructure improvements. The No Build Alternative represents the continued operation of the existing facilities at the CDC Fort Collins Campus without any new construction or infrastructure upgrades. The Final EA evaluated the potential impacts to socioeconomics and environmental justice, land use, zoning, public policy, community facilities and services, transportation, air quality, noise, cultural resources, urban design and visual resources, natural resources, utility service, hazardous materials, greenhouse gases and sustainability, and construction. HHS/CDC assessed the potential impacts of the Build Alternative in the Final EA and as a result issued a FONSI indicating that the proposed action will not have a significant impact on the environment.

Proposed Project

    A Study of Viral Persistence in Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) 
Survivors--Existing Information Collection Without an OMB Control 
Number--National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases 
(NCEZID), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    Much progress has been made in the year since the CDC first 
responded to the Ebola outbreak in West Africa, but the agency's 
efforts must continue until there are zero new cases of Ebola virus

international goal of zero new EVD cases in 2015, the agency must 
intensify its efforts to identify and prevent every potential route of

barriers to reaching that final goal.
    Persistence of Ebola Virus (EBOV) in Body Fluids of EVD Survivors 
in Sierra Leone is the first systematic examination of the post-

cohort of convalescent Ebola survivors during close or intimate

    Participants for each module will be recruited by trained study
