Proposed Project
National Vital Statistics Report Forms
(OMB Control Number 0920–0213,
expires 04/30/2018)—Revision—
National Center for Health Statistics
(NCHS, Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The compilation of national vital
statistics dates back to the beginning of
the 20th century and has been
conducted since 1960 by the Division of
Vital Statistics of the National Center for
Health Statistics, CDC. The collection of
the data is authorized by 42 U.S.C. 242k.
This submission requests approval to
collect the monthly and annually
summary statistics for three years.
The Monthly Vital Statistics Report
forms provide counts of monthly
occurrences of births, deaths, and infant
deaths. Similar data have been
published since 1937 and are the sole
source of these data at the National
level. The data are used by the
Department of Health and Human
Services and by other government,
academic, and private research and
commercial organizations in tracking
changes in trends of vital events.
Respondents for the Monthly Vital
Statistics Reports Form are registration
officials in each State and Territory, the
District of Columbia, and New York
City. This form is also designed to
collect counts of monthly occurrences of
births, deaths, and infant deaths
immediately following the month of
occurrence.
The Annual Vital Statistics
Occurrence Report Form collects final
annual counts of marriages and divorces
by month for each State and Territory,
the District of Columbia, and New York
City as well as 33 counties in New
Mexico. These final counts are usually
available from State or county officials
about eight months after the end of the
data year. The data are widely used by
government, academic, private research,
and commercial organizations in
tracking changes in trends of family
formation and dissolution.
This submission contains no changes
to the actual data collection forms.
However, the respondent numbers for
the monthly and annual forms have
shifted from 91 and 58 respectively to
58 and 91, since the 33 New Mexico
Counties only send marriage and
divorce information that is now only
captured in the annual report.
Consequently, the total burden has been
reduced from 175 hours to 139 hours.
There are no costs to respondents
other than their time.

including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
(c) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be

Proposed Project
Workplace Violence Prevention
Programs in NJ Healthcare Facilities
(0920–0914, Expiration 3/31/2018)—
Extension—National Institute for
Occupational Safety and Health
(NIOSH), Centers for Disease Control

Background and Brief Description
The National Institute for
Occupational Safety and Health
(NIOSH) is requesting an extension to
complete 20 nursing home interviews
for 0920–0914.

Healthcare workers are nearly five
times more likely to be victims of
violence than workers in all industries
combined.
While healthcare workers are not at
particularly high risk for job-related
homicide, nearly 60% of all nonfatal
assaults occurring in private industry
are experienced in healthcare. Six states
have enacted laws to reduce violence
against healthcare workers by requiring
workplace violence prevention
programs.
However, little is understood about
how effective these laws are in reducing
violence against healthcare workers.
The long-term goal of the proposed
project is to reduce violence against
healthcare workers. The objective of the
proposed study is: (1) To examine
nursing home compliance with the New
Jersey Violence Prevention in Health
Care Facilities Act, and (2) to evaluate
the effectiveness of the regulations in
this Act in reducing assault injuries to
nursing home workers. Our central
hypothesis is that nursing homes with
high compliance with the regulations
will have lower rates of employee
violence-related injury. NIOSH received
OMB approval (0920–0914) to evaluate
the legislation at 50 hospitals and at 40
nursing homes, to conduct a nurse
survey and to conduct a home
healthcare aide survey. Data collection
is complete for the hospitals, the nurse
survey, and the home healthcare aide
survey. We have completed 20 out of 40
nursing home interviews. We still have
20 nursing home interviews to
complete.
CDC will conduct face-to-face
interviews with the Chairs of the
Violence Prevention Committees in 20
nursing homes (10 in New Jersey and 10
in Virginia) who are in charge of
overseeing compliance efforts. The
purpose of the interviews is to measure
compliance to the state regulations:
Violence prevention policies, reporting
systems for violent events, violence
prevention committee, written violence
prevention plan, violence risk
assessments, post incident response and
violence prevention training. A
contractor will conduct the interviews.
There are no costs to respondents
other than their time. The total
estimated burden hours are 40.

for Environmental Health (NCEH),

Background and Brief Description
The overarching goal of HHLPSS is to
support healthy homes surveillance
activities at the state and national levels.
CDC seeks to request an OMB approval
to extend the project for 18-months for
up to 40 state and local Healthy Homes
Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention
Programs (CLPPP) and the state-based
Adult Blood Lead Epidemiology and
Surveillance (ABLES) programs. The
state programs will report information
(e.g., presence of lead paint, age of
housing, occupation of adults and type
of housing) to the CDC under a one-year
cost extension of the FY14 Funding
Opportunity Announcement (FOA No.
CDC–RFA–14–1408) titled ‘‘(PPHF)
Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention.’’
The 18-month extension will allow CDC
to collect data for the third year
