Download as PDF 44370 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 153 / Thursday, August 12, 2021 / Notices Continuations A brief progress report will be submitted annually to NHANES. This report should describe work completed and timeline to project completion. If five years have elapsed since the initial approval of the protocol by the NCHS ERB a more detailed plan and timeline to complete the study will be required by NHANES. If at any time during the project a new investigator(s) are added or the Principal Investigator has changed, the NHANES Serum/plasma/ urine Project Officer must be notified. Disposition of Results and Samples No samples provided can be used for any purpose other than those specifically requested in the proposal and approved by the NHANES Technical Panel and the NCHS ERB. No samples can be shared with others, including other investigators, unless specified in the proposal and so approved by the NHANES Technical Panel and the NCHS ERB. Any unused samples must be returned to the NHANES Serum, Plasma and Urine Repository or disposed of, after NHANES approval, upon completion of the approved project. The results, once returned to NCHS, will be part of the public domain. The investigator will have 60 days for quality control review of the data before public release by NHANES. lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1 Cost Schedule for Providing NHANES Samples There is a nominal processing fee of $15.00 for each sample received from an NHANES Serum, Plasma and Urine Repository. If the investigator requests to use the samples for another project after the completion of the initial project, the additional cost will be $5.50 per sample to handle the processing of the data and management of the subsequent proposal process. A new proposal must be submitted and go through the approval process before any additional use of the samples. The costs include the collection, processing, storage, and retrieval of the samples along with the review of proposals and the preparation of the data files. The costs listed are for the recurring laboratory materials to dispense and prepare the samples during collection and for shipping. The costs for the NHANES repository include long term storage (including inventory management and materials and equipment) and accessioning of samples and pulling samples from the freezer for shipment to the investigator. Labor costs are based on a proposal administrator to manage the proposal process and computer programmers at NCHS who prepare the data files for the release of the data along with documentation on the NHANES web page.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Description: The Preventing Sex Trafficking and Strengthening Families Act of 2014 mandated the NAC to develop a report describing how each state has implemented its recommendations to address sex trafficking in children and youth. The NAC proposed to administer a survey SUMMARY: allowing states to assess their progress in implementing NAC recommendations. Submissions allow states to document their efforts in the following sections: Multidisciplinary Response, Screening and Identification, Child Welfare, Service Provision, Housing, Law Enforcement and Prosecution, Judiciary, Demand Reduction, Prevention, Legislation and Regulation, Research and Data, and Funding. Each state will have the opportunity to provide a self-assessed tier ranking for each recommendation, a justification of their assessment, sources for their assessment, and the public or private nature of those sources. The survey was initially launched in March 2021 with a due date in June 2021. We are requesting an extension to allow states ample time to collaborate and compile their responses. There are no changes proposed. Respondents: State Governors, child welfare agencies, local law enforcement, and other local agencies. Annual Burden Estimates: Each state is responsible for collaborating with governors, law enforcement agencies, prosecutors, courts, child welfare agencies, and other local agencies and relevant groups to provide their selfassessment of their state’s implementation efforts. The opportunity burden is calculated below, assuming five respondents for each state: TABLE 1—OPPORTUNITY BURDEN Total number of respondents contributing for 50 states Total number of responses per respondent NAC Recommendations and State Self-Assessment Survey ..................... 250 1 6.85 1,713 Estimated Opportunity Burden Totals .................................................. .......................... .......................... ........................ 1,713 Instrument Estimated Total Annual Opportunity Burden Hours: 1,713.
