funding to 70 grantees under ‘‘Cancer
Prevention and Control Programs for
State, Territorial, and Tribal
Organizations (DP17–1701).’’ NBCCEDP
grantees include states or their bona fide
agents; U.S. territories; and tribes or
tribal organizations. The purpose of
NBCCEDP is to increase breast and
cervical cancer screening rates among
women residing within defined
geographical locations (as determined
by the funded program) who are at or
below 250% of the federal poverty level;
aged 40–64 years for breast cancer
services, and aged 21–64 years for
cervical cancer services; and under- or
uninsured.
The NBCCEDP was significantly
redesigned in 2017 to expand its focus
on direct service provision to include
implementation of evidence-based
and annual clinic-level data for all
partnering health system clinic sites—
an estimated 6 clinics per grantee for
breast cancer data and 6 clinics per
grantee for cervical cancer data. All
information will be reported to CDC
electronically.
The proposed information collections
will allow CDC to gauge progress in
meeting NBCCEDP program goals and
monitor implementation activities,
evaluate outcomes, and identify grantee
technical assistance needs. In addition,
findings will inform program
improvement and help identify
successful activities that need to be
maintained, replicated, or expanded.
CDC seeks a three-year OMB
approval. Participation is required for
NBCCEDP grantees. There are no costs
to respondents other than their time.
interventions (EBIs) intended to
increase breast and cervical cancer
screening at the population level. Based
on the redesigned NBCCEDP, the
information collection plan has also
been redesigned. CDC is required to
monitor and evaluate processes and
outcomes related to the NBCCEDP.
CDC proposes two forms of
information collection. First, the
NBCCEDP Grantee Survey was
reconstructed to reflect the focus of the
redesigned program under DP17–1701.
The grantee survey will be submitted to
CDC annually. Second, CDC proposes to
collect clinic-level data to assess EBI
implementation and the NBCCEDP’s
primary outcome of interest—breast and
cervical screening rates within partner
health system clinics. NBCCEDP
grantees will collect and report baseline

Background: The Advisory Board as
established under the Energy Employees
Occupational Illness Compensation
Program Act of 2000 to advise the
President on a variety of policy and
technical functions required to
implement and effectively manage the
new compensation program. Key
functions of the Advisory Board include
providing advice on the development of
probability of causation guidelines that
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 CDC. NIOSH
implements this responsibility for CDC.
The charter was issued on August 3,
2001, renewed at appropriate intervals,
rechartered on March 22, 2016,

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.
SDRR 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
will include discussions on the
following dose reconstruction program
quality management and assurance
activities: Dose reconstruction cases
under review from Sets 19–24,
including Iowa Ordinance Plant,
Sandia-Albuquerque, Sandia National
Laboratory, Pacific Proving Grounds,
Nevada Test Site, Los Alamos National
Laboratory, Feeds Material Production
Center (Fernald), Pantex, Weldon
Spring, Rocky Flats Plant, W.R. Grace,
Mallinckrodt Chemical Company, and
potentially other Department of Energy
and Atomic Weapons Employers
facilities.
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
Substances and Disease Registry.

Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA)
(44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), Federal agencies
must obtain approval from the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for each
collection of information they conduct
or sponsor. In addition, the PRA also
requires Federal agencies to provide a
60-day notice in the Federal Register
concerning each proposed collection of
information, including each new
proposed collection, each proposed
extension of existing collection of
information, and each reinstatement of
previously approved information
collection before submitting the
collection to OMB for approval. To
comply with this requirement, we are
publishing this notice of a proposed
data collection as described below.
The OMB is particularly interested in
comments that will help:
1. Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
2. Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
3. Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
4. Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submissions
of responses.
5. Assess information collection costs.

Proposed Project
Fatigued Driving among Oil and Gas
Extraction workers: Risks and
Interventions—New—National Institute
for Occupational Safety and Health
(NIOSH), Centers for Disease Control

Background and Brief Description
The mission of the National Institute
for Occupational Safety and Health
(NIOSH) is to promote safety and health
at work for all people through research
and prevention. The Occupational
Safety and Health Act of 1970, Public
Law 9–596 (Section 20) [a][1] authorizes
NIOSH to conduct research to advance
the health and safety of workers.
Transportation incidents are the
leading cause of death in the U.S. Oil &
Gas extraction (OGE) industry, resulting
in over 40% of all workplace fatalities.
