long-haul operations for at least one
year will be eligible for the study. A
convenience sample of 180 eligible
drivers over a two-year period will be
recruited to participate in the study. The
study sample will include
approximately 90 regional and 90 longhaul drivers. There will be no required
minimum number of female or minority
drivers to be included in the study.
Data will be collected during each
phase: (1) In the application, drivers
will be asked to provide their name and
contact information (home address,
telephone number, and email address)
to allow contact from the research team
regarding their eligibility for the study.
(2) In the briefing session, drivers will
be asked to complete the Background
Questionnaire. (3) During the study,
information collection will occur
through several streams: (a) A real-time
fatigue monitoring system installed in
the participating driver’s vehicle; (b)
Smart phone apps to collect
psychomotor vigilance test, Karolinska
Sleepiness Scale, sleep log, difficulty of
drive scale, degree of drive hazards
scale, a fatigue scale, and a stress scale;
(c) an electronic logging device to
collect data on the driver’s duty and
driving; (d) a wrist actigraphy to collect
data on driver sleep and wake times.
Drivers will be asked to sync the
actigraph with a smartphone app daily;
(e) smartphone or web-based
questionnaires including Exercise and
Food Consumption Questionnaire, the
quality of life short form 36 version-2
questionnaire (SF–36v2), Family
Interactions Questionnaire, and Job
Descriptive Index. These will be
completed by drivers at four different
intervals, including the beginning (first
week) and middle (second month) of the
baseline phase, and the middle (fifth
month) and end (eighth month) of the
intervention phase; (f) A questionnaire
to assess corporate practices and
corporate safety climate will be given to
managers at the participating carriers.
These will be completed by managers at
the beginning (first week) of the study
and end (eighth month) of the
intervention phase; and (g) during the
field study, carriers will be asked to
provide information concerning crashes
and roadside violations occurring
during each driver’s period of study
participation. Administrative cost
information (e.g., equipment, labor, etc.)
will also be collected from the carrier to
evaluate cost-benefit of the intervention.
The total annualized burden hours
requested is 5,139.

Proposed Project
National Surveillance of Community
Water Systems and Corresponding
Populations with the Recommended
Fluoridation Level—Existing Collection
in use without an OMB Control
Number—National Center for Chronic
Disease Prevention and Health
Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Dental caries is one of the most
common chronic diseases throughout
the lifespan in the United States, and
disproportionately affects populations
with low socioeconomic status, and
racial and ethnic minority populations.
Dental caries can lead to infection and
diminished quality of life, and cause
substantial societal cost due to absence
from school and work, as well as
expensive treatments. Naturally
occurring fluoride is found in all surface
and ground water sources, but typically
is lower than the recommended
concentration needed to prevent dental
caries (tooth decay). Community water
fluoridation is the process of adjusting
the fluoride concentration of a
community water system (CWS) to the
level beneficial for prevention of dental
caries as recommended by the US
Public Health Service (PHS). CDC
monitors CWS fluoride levels relative to
the PHS recommended level under the
Public Health Service Act.
In 2000, CDC launched a Web-based
data management tool—Water
Fluoridation Reporting Systems (WFRS)
in collaboration with the Association of
State and Territorial Dental Directors.
States may report their information to
CDC using WFRS or via email.
Respondents to the information
collection are state fluoridation
managers or other state government
officials designated by the state dental
director or drinking water administrator.
Respondents are asked to update
fluoridation status of, and counties and
populations served by, each CWS in
their state annually. All 50 states
respond to this portion of the collection.
Washington DC is not included in the
data collection because water is
supplied by a CWS from Virginia and
therefore the data is collected by
Virginia. Historically collected natural
fluoride concentrations are available in
WFRS for all CWS; once collected, they
rarely change over time. Respondents
also are asked to enter the high, low,
and average fluoride testing level data
annually for each month for their
fluoride-adjusted CWS. Currently, twothirds of the states respond to this
portion of the collection.
CDC analyzes and publishes results
through interactive, public-facing web
pages: (1) Biennial surveillance reports
documenting the percentage of the
population with fluoridated water at
national, state, and local levels; and (2)
My Water’s Fluoride, which publishes
the fluoridation status of individual
CWS and some fluoride level data for
states which choose to display it.
CDC uses the information collection
to (1) provide national fluoridation
surveillance reports; (2) assist states to
manage their fluoride level data and
monitor and improve quality of
community water fluoridation
programs; (3) measure national
performance toward the fluoridation
Healthy People objective; (4) evaluate
outcomes of CDC’s cooperative
agreements with states; (5) facilitate
creation of state-specific reports for
states’ programmatic and policy use.
The information collection is also used
to inform health care providers to
determine targeted delivery of
preventive care, for example,
determining use of fluoride
supplements for children living in
fluoride-deficient areas.
CDC’s collection of CWS data is not
duplicative of any other federal
collection, including the US
Environmental Protection Agency’s
(EPA) Safe Drinking Water Information
System (SDWIS), as SDWIS receives
state reports of CWS fluoride levels that
exceed 4 mg/L but not those near the
beneficial level of 0.7 mg/L
recommended for dental caries
prevention by the PHS. Thus, CDC’s
system is required to assess the degree
to which the nation is reaching this
PHS-recommended level. The total
estimated annualized burden hours are
2,783, including (1) 1,875 hours for the
validation or update of CWS
fluoridation status and population
served from 50 respondents, with
estimated average burden hours of 37.5
per respondent; and (2) 908 hours for
the annual entry of fluoride testing level
data for fluoride-adjusted CWS
conducted by 33 respondents with an
estimated average burden of 27.5 hours
per respondent. WFRS is hosted and
maintained by CDC and there are no
maintenance costs to respondents.
