Background: The WTCHP is
administered by NIOSH. The James
Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation
Act of 2010, Public Law 111–347
(hereafter referred to as ‘‘the Zadroga
Act’’) was signed by President Obama
on January 2, 2011, and was reauthorized on December 18, 2015. The
Zadroga Act continues monitoring and
treatment activities and requires the
establishment (under Subtitle C) of a
research program on health conditions
resulting from the September 11, 2001,
terrorist attacks. For additional
information on the program please refer
to: https://www.cdc.gov/wtc.
The Zadroga Act lists the following
broad research areas:
• Physical and mental health
conditions that may be related to the
September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks;
• Diagnosing WTC-related health
conditions for which there has been
diagnostic uncertainty; and
• Treating WTC-related health
conditions for which there has been
treatment uncertainty.
Research mentioned in the Zadroga
Act includes epidemiologic and other
research studies on WTC-related health
conditions or emerging conditions
among (1) enrolled WTC responders and
certified-eligible WTC survivors under
treatment; (2) sampled populations
outside the NYC disaster area, in
Manhattan (as far north as 14th Street)
and in Brooklyn; and (3) control
populations, to identify potential for
long-term adverse health effects in less
exposed populations.
Major areas of interest include, but are
not limited to, the following:
Linking 9/11 exposure to health
conditions:
• Cancers, multisystem or
autoimmune, cardiovascular and
neurologic disease (including age at
diagnosis);
• Characterizing patterns of illness
(age, gender, comorbidities, etc.); and
• Characterizing alterations in health
and development for those exposed to
9/11 as children.
Characterizing established WTCrelated diseases and comorbidities:
• Identifying phenotypes, biomarkers,
epigenetics; and
• Care models that address complex
co-morbidities and other modifiable
factors.
• Health services research and valuebased care that addresses disasterrelated injury and illness for chronic
disease.
(Note: Health services research
examines how people get access to
health care, how much care costs, and
what happens to patients as a result of
this care. The main goals of health
services research are to identify the
most effective ways to organize,
manage, finance, and deliver high
quality care; reduce medical errors; and
improve patient safety (Agency for
Healthcare Research and Quality, 2002).
Characterizing the work-ability and
occupational outcomes for those
impacted by 9/11.
Lessons learned in recovery:
• Identifying and operationalizing
key elements of psychological resilience
for disaster responders; and
• Establishing comparison groups for
disaster-related research for key health
indicators for first responders.
(Note: Concepts of psychological
resilience vary across disciplines with
investigations addressing various
outcomes ranging from reported levels
of stress, burnout, compassion fatigue,
and general indicators of well-being.
Also proposed are interpersonal,
intrapersonal and environmental factors
that suggest a more stable and enduring
personality trait impacting selfregulation.)
Relevant diseases or conditions
include, but are not limited to, the
following:
• Respiratory diseases
• Cancer (including detection/diagnosis
of pre-malignant changes)
• Cardiovascular Disease
• Psychological resilience and wellbeing
• Persistent psychiatric conditions such
as posttraumatic stress, anxiety and
depressive disorders
• Cognitive changes
• Aging—the impacts of aging on those
impacted by 9/11 illness and injury
• Neurological Diseases
• Aerodigestive health
• Multisystem or auto-immune diseases
• Gastro-esophageal disorders
• Gastrointestinal health
• Chronic musculoskeletal conditions
resulting from acute traumatic injury
and overuse disorders
The Director, Management Analysis
and Services Office, has been delegated
the authority to sign Federal Register
notices pertaining to announcements of
meetings and other committee
management activities for both the
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention and the Agency for Toxic

Comment Request
Title: Form ACF–196R, ‘‘TANF
Quarterly Financial Report’’
OMB No.: 0970–0446
Description: This information
collection is authorized under Section
411(a)(3) of the Social Security Act. This
request is for continued approval of
Form ACF–196R for quarterly financial
reporting under the Temporary
Assistance for Needy Families (TANF)
program. States participating in the
TANF program are required by statute to
report financial data on a quarterly
basis. The forms meet the legal standard
and provide essential data on the use of
federal TANF funds. Failure to collect
the data would seriously compromise
ACF’s ability to monitor program
expenditures, estimate funding needs,
and to prepare budget submissions and
annual reports required by Congress.
Financial reporting under the TANF
program is governed by 45 CFR part
265.
This form was first developed in 2014
to replace Form ACF–196. No changes
are being proposed with this request for
OMB review. No comments were
received in response to the publication
of the initial Federal Register Notice on
May 30, 2017, 82 FR 24714.
Respondents: State agencies
administering the TANF program (50
States plus the District of Columbia)

Title: National Child Abuse and
Neglect Data System.
OMB No.: 0970–0424.
Description: The Administration on
Children, Youth and Families in the
U.S. Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS) established the National
Child Abuse and Neglect Data System
(NCANDS) to respond to the 1988 and
1992 amendments (Pub. L. 100–294 and
Pub. L. 102–295) to the Child Abuse
Prevention and Treatment Act (42
U.S.C. 5101 et seq.), which called for the
creation of a coordinated national data
collection and analysis program, both
universal and case specific in scope, to
examine standardized data on false,
unfounded, or unsubstantiated reports.
In 1996, the Child Abuse Prevention
and Treatment Act was amended by
Public Law 104–235 to require that any
state receiving the Basic State Grant
work with the Secretary of the
Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS) to provide specific data
on child maltreatment, to the extent

2018 data. Item (18) below was enacted
with the Comprehensive Addiction and
Recovery Act of 2016 (CARA) (Pub. L.
