Proposed Project
Assessing the Infrastructure for Public
Sexually Transmitted Disease (STD)
Prevention Services—NEW—National
Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis,
STD, and TB Prevention (NCHHSTP),
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Annually, there are nearly 20 million
cases of sexually transmitted diseases
(STD) in the United States (US) causing
an estimated $15.6 billion in direct
medical costs. A significant percentage
of reported cases of STDs are diagnosed
in publicly funded clinics, such as STD
clinics that are operated by state health
departments (SHDs) and local health
departments (LHDs). Additionally, state
and local health departments also
engage in other essential STD
prevention activities such as partner
services and disease surveillance.
Therefore, it is important to periodically
assess the current level of publicly-
funded STD prevention services that are
offered by health departments in the US.
The STD infrastructure survey will
aid CDC in understanding the scope of
the delivery of timely public STD
preventive and clinical services that are
provided to reduce the number of newly
acquired STDs and prevent STD-related
sequelae. There is no national data
available that focuses on detailed STD
prevention activities conducted by state
and local health departments.
The purpose of this survey is to
periodically, (i.e., every three years)
examine STD prevention services
provided by local and state health
departments. The survey will include
all state health departments and a
nationally representative sample of local
health departments in the US. The local
health department sample will allow for
estimates by jurisdiction population size
and US Census region.
The survey contains sections on STD
program structure within the health
department, STD-related clinical
services (local health departments only),
partner and other prevention services,
and workforce and impacts of any
budget reductions.
CDC will administer the STD
infrastructure survey to all 50 state
health departments and a random
sample of 668 local health departments
from a list of local health departments
maintained by the National Association
of City and County Health Officials
(NACCHO). Using a web-based survey,
multiple reminders will be sent to nonresponders in order to reach the target
of 44 completed state and 334
completed local surveys for each data
collection (different respondents per
data collection). The total estimated
annual burden hours are 238. There is
no cost to respondents other than their
time.

new compensation program. Key
functions of the Advisory Board include
providing advice on the development of
probability of causation guidelines,
which 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 the CDC.
NIOSH implements this responsibility
for CDC. The charter was issued on
August 3, 2001, renewed at appropriate
intervals, rechartered on March 22, 2016
pursuant to Executive Order 13708, and
will expire on September 30, 2017.
Purpose: The Advisory Board is
charged with (a) providing advice to the
Secretary, HHS, on the development of
guidelines under Executive Order
13179; (b) providing advice to the
Secretary, HHS, on the scientific
validity and quality of dose
reconstruction efforts performed for this
program; and (c) upon request by the
Secretary, HHS, advise the Secretary on
whether there is a class of employees at
any Department of Energy facility who
were exposed to radiation but for whom
it is not feasible to estimate their
radiation dose, and on whether there is
reasonable likelihood that such
radiation doses may have endangered
the health of members of this class. The
Subcommittee for Dose Reconstruction
Reviews was established to aid the
Advisory Board in carrying out its duty
to advise the Secretary, HHS, on dose
reconstruction.
Matters To Be Considered: The agenda
for the Subcommittee meeting includes
the following dose reconstruction
program quality management and
assurance activities: Dose reconstruction
cases under review from Sets 14–23,
including the Oak Ridge sites (Y–12, K–
25, Oak Ridge National Laboratory),
Hanford, Feed Materials Production
Center (‘‘Fernald’’), Lawrence Livermore
National Laboratory, Mound Plant,
Rocky Flats Plant, Nevada Test Site,
Idaho National Laboratory, Savannah
River Site, Brookhaven National
Laboratory, Westinghouse, W.R. Grace,
Uranium Mill in Monticello, Ventron
Corporation, Weldon Springs Plant, and
other Department of Energy and
‘‘Atomic Weapons Employer’’ facilities.
