Proposed Project
Blood Lead Surveillance System
(BLSS) (OMB Control No. 0920–0931,
Exp. 07/31/2024)—Extension—National
Center for Environmental Health
(NCEH), Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
This is a request for a three-year
Extension for an existing Paperwork
Reduction Act (PRA) clearance titled
‘‘Blood Lead Surveillance System
(BLSS)’’ (OMB Control No.0920–0931,
Exp. 07/31/2024). The National Center
for Environmental Health (NCEH) is
leading this data collection conducted
by for two Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC) programs; one for
childhood blood lead surveillance by
NCEH and another for adult blood lead
surveillance by the National Institute for
Occupational Safety and Health
(NIOSH).
The goal of the NCEH Childhood
Blood Lead Surveillance (CBLS)
Program is to support blood lead
screening and to promote primary
prevention of exposure to lead. The
CBLS Program also supports secondary
prevention of adverse health effects
when lead exposures occur in children,
through improved program management
and oversight in respondent
jurisdictions.
The goal of the NIOSH Adult Blood
Lead Epidemiology and Surveillance
(ABLES) Program is to build state
capacity for adult blood lead
surveillance programs to measure trends
in adult blood lead levels and to prevent
lead over-exposures.
NCEH has a five-year cooperative
agreement, titled ‘‘Childhood Lead
Poisoning Prevention and Surveillance
of Blood Lead Levels in Children’’
(Funding Opportunity Announcement
[FOA] No. CDC–RFA–EH21–2102). The
first two years of this ICR will extend
from FY24 through FY26, and thus will
be covered for two-thirds of the ICR
three-year period, while funding for the
third year of this ICR will be determined
in the future. Data submission to the
ABLES Program is voluntary and
completed through data sharing
agreements with state agencies or their
bona fide agents.
Blood lead surveillance over the
human lifespan is covered under this
single ICR, specifically for children
younger than 16 years through CBLS at
NCEH, and for adults 16 years and
older, through ABLES at NIOSH. Over
the past several decades there have been
substantial efforts in environmental lead
abatement, improved protection from
occupational lead exposure, and a
reduction in the prevalence of
population blood lead levels (BLLs) over
time. The U.S. population BLLs have
substantially decreased over the last
four decades. For example, the CDC has
reported the 1976–1980 U.S. mean BLL
in children six months to five years was
16.0 micrograms per deciliter (mcg/dL),
and 14.1 mcg/dL among adults 18 to 74
years. More recently, the CDC reported
the 2009–2010 U.S. BLL geometric
means among children one to five years
and among adults 20 years and older as
1.2 mcg/dL for both age groups. In 2012,
the National Toxicology Program (NTP)
concluded that there is sufficient
evidence that even BLLs less than 5
mcg/dL are associated with adverse
health effects in both children and
adults. Despite the reduction in the
overall population BLL over four
decades, lead exposures continue to
occur at unacceptable levels for
individuals in communities and
workplaces across the nation.
Surveillance will continue through
CBLS and ABLES to identify
individuals with BLLs greater than most
children who may need follow-up.
Surveillance can also help prioritize
communities for primary prevention of
lead exposure and expanding blood lead
testing. As of October 2021, NCEH
defines its Blood Lead Reference Value
(BLRV) for children at 3.5 mcg/dL.
NIOSH defines an elevated BLLs as
greater than or equal to 5 mcg/dL for
adults.
Respondents are defined as state,
local, and territorial health departments
with lead poisoning prevention
programs. The estimated annual time
burden for NCEH CBLS is 1,058 hours.
The estimated annual time burden for
NIOSH ABLES is 280 hours. In total,
CDC is requesting approval for a total
annual time burden of 1,338 hours.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Under the Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995 (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501–3520),
Federal agencies must obtain approval
from the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) for each collection of
information they conduct or sponsor. 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
the 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,
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 collecting
information on those to respond,
including using appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic responses;
and
5. Assess information collection costs.
Proposed Project
Needle Exchange Utilization Survey
(NEXUS)—New—National Center for

Background and Brief Description
The purpose of the Needle Exchange
Utilization Survey (NEXUS) is to
develop a surveillance system to
monitor drug use, prevention behaviors,
and the infectious disease consequences

of drug use in 6–15 select urban and
non-urban areas of the U.S. that the
opioid crisis has impacted. Such a
surveillance system is needed to inform
prevention efforts and policy. The
specific objectives of the project are to
assess the following among persons who
inject drugs who are recruited in syringe
services programs (SSPs) and their peers
who use drugs through peer-driven
recruitment: (1) drug use and sexual
behaviors, injection risk networks,
receipt of prevention services, and
barriers to prevention and care; and (2)
the prevalence of HIV and hepatitis C
(HCV) infections.
The project will involve a two-stage
sampling approach. First, up to 15 SSPs
will be selected to ensure geographic
diversity and representation of key
program characteristics, such as the
syringe distribution model (needs-based
vs. all others) and length in operation
(<5 years, ≥5 years). Second, SSP
clients, the majority who are persons
who inject drugs (PWID), and their
peers who use drugs will be recruited
through a combination of direct
recruitment at each SSP and peer-driven
recruitment to partake in a survey and
HCV and HIV testing.
Clients of SSPs and their peers who
meet eligibility criteria will complete a
survey using an Electronic Data Capture
system, a secure web-based application
for administering online surveys. The
survey will include questions on drug
use and sexual behaviors, injection risk
networks, drug treatment history,
history of drug use-related adverse
health outcomes, experiences with law
enforcement, HIV and HCV testing
experience, and use of prevention and
health care services. Lastly, participants
will be offered anonymous HIV and
HCV testing in conjunction with the
survey, which they may refuse with no
effect on participation in the survey.
Data from NEXUS will be used to
inform the planning and evaluation of
prevention programs at the local and
national levels that aim to reduce
adverse health outcomes due to
injection and non-injection drug use
and to contribute to the overall opioid
crisis response efforts. Data from
NEXUS will also be used for an ongoing
surveillance system in the U.S. to
monitor trends in drug use and the
infectious disease consequences of drug
use.
Approximately 6,000 individuals will
complete the eligibility screener. Our
target population is 300 participants per
site or 4,500 for up to 15 sites. We
anticipate that, on average, 25% or
1,499 persons (for up to 15 SSPs) will
not be interested in completing a
questionnaire, yielding a maximum of
