Background and Brief Description
The Safe Drinking Water Act of 1974
(SDWA) ensures that most Americans
are provided access to water that meets
established public health standards.
However, for over 38 million Americans
who rely on private wells or other
drinking water not protected by the
SDWA (herein referred to as private
wells), that is not the case. There is no
comprehensive knowledge about the
locations of private wells, the
populations served by these sources,
potential contaminants that might be
present in private well water in specific
areas of the country, or the potential
health risks associated with drinking
water from these sources.
The purpose of this new generic
clearance information collection request
is to assess the health risks associated
with exposure to contaminants in
drinking water from private wells across
varied geographic areas of the United
States in partnership with the
requesting agency (state, territorial,
local, or tribal health department). The
information obtained from these
investigations will be used to describe
health risks from exposure to
contaminants in drinking water from
private wells within a defined time
period and geographic distribution. This
information will be used to inform
public health protection activities
conducted by the requesting agencies.
The respondents are defined as adults
at least 18 years old, who use private
wells for drinking water, who are
willing to receive and return a tap water
sampling kit and urine specimen kit or
to provide a blood specimen, and who
are willing to answer survey questions.
They will be recruited from geographic
areas of interest as defined by the
requesting agency.
Based on our historical activities, we
estimate that CDC will conduct up to 10

investigation will involve on average

is 2,084 hours. There will be no cost to
the respondents other than their time.

Rural Health Grant Program
OMB No. 0915–0322—Extension
Abstract: The mission of the Federal
Office of Rural Health Policy (FORHP)
is to sustain and improve access to
quality care services for rural
communities. In its authorizing
language (section 711 of the Social
Security Act [42 U.S.C. 912]), Congress
charged FORHP with administering
grants, cooperative agreements, and
contracts to provide technical assistance
and other activities as necessary to
support activities related to improving
health care in rural areas. In accordance
with the Public Health Service Act,
section 338J (42 U.S.C. 254r), HRSA
proposes to continue the State Offices of
Rural Health (SORH) Grant Program—
Funding Opportunity Announcement
(FOA) and Forms for the Application.
The FOA is used by 50 states in
preparing applications for grants under
the SORH Grant Program of the Public
Health Service Act, and in preparing the
required report.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: FORHP seeks to continue
gathering information from grantees on
their efforts to provide technical
assistance to clients within their states.
SORH grantees submit a Technical
Assistance Report that includes: (1) The
total number of technical assistance
encounters provided directly by the
grantee, and (2) the total number of
unduplicated clients that received direct
technical assistance from the grantee.
The Technical Assistance Report is
submitted via the HRSA Electronic
