SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant
to section 54.507(a) of the Commission’s
rules, the Wireline Competition Bureau
(Bureau) announces that the E-rate
program funding cap for funding year
2017 is $3,990,207,000. The new cap
represents a 1.3 percent inflationadjusted increase in the $3,939,000,000
billion cap from funding year 2016. This

category one services funding level and
a $13,130,000 increase for the category
two services funding level. The
Commission began indexing the funding

Proposed Project
Biomonitoring of Great Lakes
Populations Program III—New—Agency
for Toxic Substances and Disease
Registry (ATSDR).
Background and Brief Description
The Agency for Toxic Substances and
Disease Registry (ATSDR) is requesting
a three-year Paperwork Reduction Act
(PRA) clearance for a new information
collection request (ICR) titled
‘‘Biomonitoring of Great Lakes
Populations Program III.’’ ATSDR
awarded funds to the Wisconsin
Department of Health Services (WIDHS)
to conduct this information collection
under cooperative agreement
#NU61TS000269–01–00. The purpose of
the current program is to evaluate body
burden levels of legacy and emerging
contaminants in susceptible Great Lakes
populations in the Milwaukee Estuary
Area of Concern (AOC) in Wisconsin, an
area that has not been previously
covered by Great Lakes Biomonitoring
Programs I and II.
The Great Lakes Basin has suffered
decades of pollution and ecosystem
damage. Many chemicals persist in
Great Lakes waters and sediments, as
well as in wildlife. These chemicals can
build up in the aquatic food chain, and
eating contaminated fish is a known
route of human exposure. In 2016,
ATSDR initiated the Biomonitoring of
Great Lakes Populations Program III to
provide additional public health
information to supplement the previous
cooperative agreement programs CDC–
RFA–TS10–1001 ‘‘Biomonitoring of
Great Lakes Populations’’ (hereafter
referred to as ‘‘Program I,’’ OMB Control
Number 0923–0044) and CDC–RFA–
TS13–1302 ‘‘Biomonitoring of Great
Lakes Populations—II’’ (hereafter
referred to as ‘‘Program II,’’ OMB
Control Number 0923–0052) initiated in
FY2010 and FY2013, respectively.
WIDHS received funding for the
current program. WIDHS will recruit
and enroll two subpopulations of adults
in the Milwaukee Bay Estuary Area of
Concern (AOC) who are known to eat
fish from the Milwaukee River Basin
and Lake Michigan. This study will not
include pregnant women.
The target populations are: (1)
Licensed anglers living in proximity to
PO 00000
Frm 00054
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
the Milwaukee Estuary AOC and (2)
Burmese immigrants and their
descendants who are known to eat a
substantial amount of fish from this
area. WIDHS study staff will work
closely with local refugee and citizen
support organizations on participant
recruitment.
The aims of the information collection
in this surveillance project are:
1. Assess levels of contaminants
(metals, polychlorinated biphenyls,
chlorinated pesticides, perfluorinated
compounds, and polyaromatic
hydrocarbons) in blood and urine of
residents who consume fish from
contaminated areas that had not been
studied in previous Programs I and II;
2. Use the project findings to inform
public health officials and offer
guidance on public health actions to
reduce exposure to Great Lakes
contaminants.
This applied public health program
aims to measure contaminants in
biological samples (blood and urine)
from people who may be at high risk of
chemical exposure in the Great Lakes
area. These measurements will provide
a baseline for current and future
restoration activities. The results will be
compared to available national
estimates, such as those reported by the
National Health and Nutrition
Examination Survey (NHANES).
Respondents will be screened for
eligibility and consent will be obtained.
Participants who consent will respond
to a questionnaire and participate in
clinic visits for body measurements and
biological specimen collection (blood,
urine, and hair). Their blood will be
tested for polychlorinated biphenyls,
metals, perfluorinated compounds,
persistent pesticides, and lipids. Urine
will be tested for polycyclic aromatic
hydrocarbons and creatinine. The hair
samples (optional) will be saved for a
later analysis.
Respondents will also be interviewed.
They will be asked about demographic
and lifestyle factors, hobbies, health
conditions that may affect fish
consumption and fishing habits, and
types of jobs which can contribute to
chemical exposure. Some dietary
questions will be asked with a focus on
consumption of Great Lakes fish.
Participation in the study is
voluntary. The estimated annualized
burden for the program averaged over
the three-year study period is a
maximum of 225 hours. There is no cost
to respondents other than their time
spent in the study.
