Proposed Project National Youth Tobacco Survey 2024– 2026 (OMB Control No. 0920–0621, Exp. 1/31/2024)—Revision—National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Background and Brief Description Tobacco use is the leading cause of preventable disease and death in the United States, and nearly all tobacco use begins during youth and young adulthood. A limited number of health risk behaviors, including tobacco use, account for the overwhelming majority of immediate and long-term sources of morbidity and mortality. Because many health risk behaviors are established during adolescence, there is a critical need for public health programs directed towards youth, and for information to support these programs. Since 2004, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has periodically collected information about tobacco use among adolescents (National Youth Tobacco Survey (NYTS) 2004, 2006, 2009, 2011–2023 (OMB Control No. 0920–0621, Exp. 01/ 31/2024). This surveillance activity builds on previous surveys funded by the American Legacy Foundation in 1999, 2000, and 2002. At present, the NYTS is the most comprehensive source of nationally representative tobaccorelated data among students in grades 9–12, moreover, the NYTS is the only source of such data for students in grades 6–8. The NYTS has provided national estimates of tobacco use behaviors, information about exposure to pro- and anti-tobacco influences, and information about tobacco-related racial and ethnic disparities. Information collected through the NYTS is used to identify trends over time, to inform the development of tobacco cessation programs for youth, and to evaluate the effectiveness of existing interventions and programs. CDC plans to request OMB approval to conduct additional cycles of the NYTS in 2024, 2025, and 2026. The survey will be conducted among nationally representative samples of students attending public and private schools in grades 6–12. The survey will be digital, web-based, self-administered, and will be taken on school or personal computers, tablets, or mobile devices. Information supporting the NYTS also will be collected from state-, district-, and school-level administrators and teachers. During the 2024–2026 timeframe, changes will be incorporated that reflect CDC’s ongoing collaboration with FDA and the need to measure progress toward meeting strategic goals established by the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act. Information collection will occur annually and may include a number of new questions, as well as increased representation of minority youth. The survey will examine the following topics: Use of e-cigarettes, cigarettes, cigars, smokeless tobacco, hookahs, roll-your-own cigarettes, pipes, snus, dissolvable tobacco, bidis, heated tobacco products, and nicotine pouches; knowledge and attitudes; media and advertising; access to tobacco products and enforcement of restrictions on access; secondhand smoke and ecigarette aerosol exposure; social determinants of health such as family/ household affluence; provision of school- and community-based interventions, and cessation. Results of the NYTS will continue to be used to inform and evaluate the National Comprehensive Tobacco Control Program, provide data to inform the Department of Health and Human Service’s Tobacco Control Strategic Action Plan, and provide national benchmark data for state-level Youth Tobacco Surveys. Information collected through the NYTS also is expected to provide multiple measures and data for monitoring progress on seven tobaccorelated objectives for Healthy People 2030. CDC requests OMB approval for an estimated 22,086 annual burden hours over each of the next three years. There are no costs to respondents other than their time to participate. ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1 ESTIMATED ANNUALIZED BURDEN HOURS Number of respondents Type of respondent Form name State administrators ........................................

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: NIOSH seeks public comments on its reevaluations with initial recommendations to change the status of two drugs, pertuzumab and liraglutide, on the NIOSH List of Antineoplastic and Other Hazardous Drugs in Healthcare Settings (the List). The NIOSH reevaluations were conducted based on the process described in the NIOSH Procedures for Developing the NIOSH List of Hazardous Drugs in Healthcare Settings, available at https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/ docs/2016-161/. NIOSH reevaluated the placement of pertuzumab on the NIOSH List in response to a request for reevaluation from the manufacturer. Based on this reevaluation, the initial NIOSH recommendation is to remove pertuzumab from the NIOSH List. In its reevaluation NIOSH determined that, due to the intrinsic molecular properties of pertuzumab and the nature of the specific hazard posed by exposure to pertuzumab, it is not likely to pose a hazard to workers in healthcare settings. The potential adverse health effect relevant to pertuzumab occupational exposure is the increased potential for fetal developmental abnormalities due to oligohydramnios during pregnancy [FDA 2012]. However, the development of oligohydramnios during pregnancy is reversible and would require repeated exposures to pertuzumab that are high enough to cause oligohydramnios through the relevant period of development. Pertuzumab has limited dermal, oral, and inhalation bioavailability due to its intrinsic molecular properties. Repeated unintended exposures resulting from needlestick injuries at levels high enough to result in sustained oligohydramnios is unlikely. For these reasons, pertuzumab is not expected to pose a hazard to workers in healthcare workplaces. NIOSH reevaluated the placement of liraglutide on the NIOSH List in response to a request for reevaluation from the manufacturer. Based on this reevaluation, the initial NIOSH recommendation is to remove PO 00000 Frm 00033 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 liraglutide from the NIOSH List. In its reevaluation NIOSH determined that, due to the intrinsic molecular properties of liraglutide and the nature of the specific hazard posed by exposure to liraglutide, it is not likely to pose a hazard to workers in healthcare settings. In animal studies liraglutide was reported to cause C-cell specific thyroid tumors [FDA 2009]. This carcinogenic effect was due to mitogenic activity, and the progression required continued liraglutide exposure. The relevance of Ccell specific thyroid tumor formation in response to liraglutide exposure to humans is unknown but cannot be ruled out. Potential fetal developmental abnormalities are also seen in some animal studies, and there may be risk to the fetus in pregnant patients. However, the intrinsic molecular properties of the liraglutide peptide greatly decrease dermal, oral, and inhalation bioavailability, and the hazards related to liraglutide exposure would require repeated needlestick injuries. Systemic exposures in workplaces are not likely to reach levels required for the potential adverse effects to pose a hazard. In addition to providing the opportunity for public comment, NIOSH is conducting external peer review of its reevaluations. NIOSH has completed the peer review of pertuzumab and will conduct the peer review of liraglutide concurrently with the public review. The charges to the public and peer reviewers are provided below. Public and Peer Review Charge for the Reevaluation of Pertuzumab on the NIOSH List of Hazardous Drugs The manufacturer’s request to reevaluate the inclusion of pertuzumab on the NIOSH List proposed that pertuzumab does not present a potential hazard to healthcare worker exposures because the properties of the drug limit the potential for exposure and therefore adverse health effects from that exposure. NIOSH developed a scenario for worker exposure to pertuzumab to evaluate this proposal. Based on this scenario NIOSH determined that pertuzumab does not meet the NIOSH definition of a hazardous drug and recommends that it be removed from the List. Please review the NIOSH reevaluation of pertuzumab and consider the following questions. 1. Is this an appropriate method for evaluating the potential for exposure to pertuzumab? 2. Is oligohydramnios the best health effect to evaluate? If not, what other health effect(s) should be evaluated and why? E:\FR\FM\16JAN1.SGM 16JAN1
