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 the 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, SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: exposures at oil and gas well sites. There has been no significant fatigue research in the United States onshore upstream OGE sector. This proposed project will characterize relationships between sleep, alertness, fatigue, fatigue management, and related factors, within the onshore OGE industry. Primary data will be collected using three approaches. First, researchers will collect direct measurements of sleep and alertness among OGE workers. Second, researchers will use questionnaires to collect information on OGE worker demographics, occupation, general heath, normal working hours, commute times, physical sleeping environment, and typical sleep quality. Third, researchers will collect qualitative information through interviews with workers, front-line supervisors, health and safety leaders, as well as subject matter experts, to understand challenges and opportunities related to fatigue management in OGE. CDC requests OMB approval for an estimated 404 annual burden hours. There is no cost to respondents other than their time to participate. including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; 3. Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; 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; and 5. Assess information collection costs.

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 the OMB for approval.

Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is necessary types of FDs will allow a better understanding of barriers to the use of proven prevention recommendations and help identify approaches to improve the delivery of services to FDs. Additionally, we will gain insight into whether changes to the communication and dissemination have impacted the reach of these recommendations. Knowing if different types of FDs are aware of and willing to access FFFIPP reports and recommendations in nonprint formats is critical, as these recommendations cannot have the intended impact of saving FF lives if large numbers of FDs do not know where to find NIOSH reports or have the resources to access them. The purpose of this data collection is to assess FD implementation of the NIOSH FFFIPP recommendations and identify barriers to implementation of recommendations. Results will provide an understanding of current FD operational procedures, insight into MV-related activities and related policies, and identify whether FFFIPP recommendations are being utilized by FDs. Findings will inform strategies for communication of future recommendations and identify areas for potential intervention projects in order to improve the delivery of services and help ensure an effective and efficient stakeholder experience with the Program. The estimate for burden hours is based on a pilot test of the survey instrument by eight FD personnel. In the pilot test, the average time to complete the survey, including time for reviewing instructions, gathering needed information, and completing the survey was 10–25 minutes. There are screening questions at the beginning of the survey so all respondents may not actually participate. The respondent universe is based on: (1) 4,500 fire departments; (2) eight strata (region, department type); and (3) position (FF, chief, company officer). An estimated 13,500 respondents are anticipated to participate in the survey; the annual respondent burden is estimated to be 4,050 hours.

Proposed Project

    Fire Fighter Fatality Investigation and Prevention Program (FFFIPP) 
Survey (OMB Control No. 0920-1373, Exp. 10/31/2023)--Extension--
National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), Centers 
for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    The Fire Fighter Fatality Investigation and Prevention Program 
(FFFIPP) conducts independent investigations of fire fighter (FF) line-
of-duty deaths (LODD) and recommends ways to prevent deaths and 
injuries. In 2003, an evaluation was conducted to determine the extent 
to which recommendations from NIOSH investigations of FF fatalities are 
being implemented by fire departments (FDs). Since then, there have 
been changes to the Program recommendations and methods of 
disseminating FFFIPP reports. For example, there have been changes to: 
(1) the details and types of recommendations for preventing FF 
fatalities; and (2) the method to disseminate the FFFIPP reports to FDs 
(driven in large part by cost). Dissemination methods have evolved from 
hardcopy mailings to FDs, to internet-based, with notifications of new 
FFFIPP reports by the fire service media and if FDs sign-up at the 
NIOSH website for notifications of new reports.
    Understanding how, or if NIOSH recommendations are used by various 
types of FDs will allow a better understanding of barriers to the use 
of proven prevention recommendations and help identify approaches to 
improve the delivery of services to FDs. Additionally, we will gain 
insight into whether changes to the communication and dissemination 
have impacted the reach of these recommendations. Knowing if different 
types of FDs are aware of and willing to access FFFIPP reports and 
recommendations in non-print formats is critical, as these 
recommendations cannot have the intended impact of saving FF lives if 
large numbers of FDs do not know where to find NIOSH reports or have 
the resources to access them.
    The purpose of this data collection is to assess FD implementation 
of the NIOSH FFFIPP recommendations and identify barriers to 
implementation of recommendations. Results will provide an 
understanding of current FD operational procedures, insight into MV-
related activities and related policies, and identify whether FFFIPP 
recommendations are being utilized by FDs. Findings will inform 
strategies for communication of future recommendations and identify 
areas for potential intervention projects in order to improve the 
delivery of services and help ensure an effective and efficient 
stakeholder experience with the Program. The estimate for burden hours 
is based on a pilot test of the survey instrument by eight FD 
personnel. In the pilot test, the average time to complete the survey, 
including time for reviewing instructions, gathering needed 
information, and completing the survey was 10-25 minutes. There are 
screening questions at the beginning of the survey so all respondents 
may not actually participate. The respondent universe is based on: (1) 
4,500 fire departments; (2) eight strata (region, department type); and 
(3) position (FF, chief, company officer). An estimated 13,500 
respondents are anticipated to participate in the survey; the annual 
respondent burden is estimated to be 4,050 hours. There is no cost to 
respondents other than their time to participate.
