Proposed Project 

Registration of Individuals Displaced 

by the Hurricanes Katrina and Rita 

(Pilot Project)—New—Agency for Toxic 

Substances and Disease Registry 

(ATSDR), Office of Noncommunicable 

Diseases, Injury, and Environmental 

Health (ONDIEH), Centers for Disease 

Control and Prevention (CDC). 

Background and Brief Description 

On August 29, 2005, Hurricane 

Katrina made landfall on the coast of the 

Gulf of Mexico near New Orleans, 

Louisiana, and became one of the most 

deadly and destructive storms in U.S. 

history. Also occurring in 2005, 

Hurricane Rita was the fourth-most 

intense Atlantic hurricane ever recorded 

and the most intense tropical cyclone 

ever observed in the Gulf of Mexico. 

Following the initial phase of the 

response, the Federal Emergency 

Management Agency (FEMA) assumed 

the primary role for housing displaced 

persons over the intermediate term. To 

support those needing temporary 

housing, FEMA provided over 143,000 

travel trailers, park homes, and mobile 

homes for persons displaced by the 

above mentioned storms. However, 

some persons living in trailers 

complained of an odor or of eye or 

respiratory tract irritation. 

FEMA entered into an Interagency 

Agreement with the Centers for Disease 

Control and Prevention (CDC)/ATSDR 

on August 16, 2007 to conduct a 

comprehensive public health 

assessment, based on objective and 

credible research, of air quality 

conditions present in FEMA housing 

units to guide FEMA policy makers and 

inform the public as to the actual 

conditions in the field and any actions 

required to better promote a safe and 

healthful environment for the disaster 

victims FEMA housed in the units. 

FEMA’s agreement with the CDC 

includes an initial formaldehyde 

exposure assessment as well as a 

subsequent long-term study of the 

health effects among residents if 

feasible. Formaldehyde testing 

conducted and evaluated by the CDC 

pursuant to the initial exposure 

assessment has identified the need to 

evaluate the feasibility of establishing a 

national registry to identify and monitor 

the health of disaster victims who 

occupied FEMA-provided temporary 

housing units. The establishment of 

such a registry would complement the 

long-term health effects study set forth 

in the FEMA–CDC Interagency 

Agreement.

The goal of the proposed pilot registry 

will be to test the feasibility of 

contacting and enrolling members of the 

targeted group in a registry. 

A pre-registration dataset will be 

created before enrollment. This dataset 

will be populated with contact 

information of the exposed 

population—occupants of temporary 

housing units. FEMA will provide the 

dataset for this pilot registry. 

A computer-assisted telephone 

interview (CATI) system based on a 

paper questionnaire will be used during 

all interviews to collect data for this 

project. The first part will consist of 

screening questions to determine 

eligibility for enrollment. The second 

part will contain contact information of 

the registrant and other household 

members, demographics, and health 

status questions focusing on respiratory 

outcomes and cancer. 

The registry will include respondents 

who occupied FEMA-provided 

temporary housing units. The twominute screening questionnaire will be 

administered to a total of 8,000 

respondents. Annualized over a two 

year period, 4,000 respondents will be 

screened. The 25 minute main 

questionnaire will be administered to a 

total of 5,000 respondents. Annualized 

over a two year period, 2,500 temporary 

housing unit occupants will complete 

the main questionnaire. 

There are no costs to the respondents 

other than their time. The total 

estimated annual burden hours are 

1176.

Proposed Project 

Community-based Organization (CBO) 

Monitoring and Evaluation Project 

(CMEP) of Respect—New—National 

Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, 

STD, and TB Prevention (NCHHSTP) 

Background and Brief Description 

CDC began formally partnering with 

CBOs in the late 1980s to expand the 

reach of HIV prevention efforts. CBOs 

were, and continue to be, recognized as 

important partners in HIV prevention 

because of their history and credibility 

with target populations and their access 

to groups that may not be easily 

reached. Over time, CDC’s program for 

HIV prevention by CBOs has grown in 

size, scope, and complexity to respond 

to changes in the epidemic, including 

the diffusion and implementation of 

Effective Behavioral Interventions (EBIs) 

for HIV prevention. 

CDC’s EBIs have been shown to be 

effective under controlled research 

environments, but there is limited data 

on intervention implementation and 

client outcomes in real-world settings 

(as implemented by CDC-funded CBOs). 

The purpose of CMEP–Respect is to (a) 

improve the performance of CDCfunded CBOs delivering particular 

individual- or group-level behavioral 

interventions by monitoring changes in 

clients’ self-reported HIV transmission 

risk behaviors after participating in the 

intervention; and (b) assess the fidelity 

of the implementation of the selected 

intervention at the CBO. The project 

also plans to conduct process 

monitoring of the delivery of the 

intervention in terms of recruitment, 

retention, data collection, data entry, 

and data management. Four CBOs will 

receive supplemental funding under PS 

10–1003 over a five-year period to 

participate in CMEP–Respect. 

From July 1, 2011 to June 30, 2015, 

CBOs will conduct outcome and process 

monitoring for this project. Each agency 

will recruit 400 men who are 18 years 

of age and older, report having had anal 

sex with a male in the last 12 months, 

and are enrolled in Respect to 

participate in CMEP–Respect. Each 

participant will complete a 20 minute, 

self administered, computer based 

interview prior to their participation in 

the Respect intervention and an 18 

minute, self administered, computer 

based interview at two follow-up time 

points (90- and 180-days following the 

Respect intervention) to assess their HIV 

and STD related attitudes and 

behavioral risks. CBOs will be expected 

to retain 80% of these participants at 

both follow-up interviews. 

Throughout the project, funded CBOs 

will be responsible for managing the 

daily procedures of CMEP–Respect to 

ensure that all required activities are 

performed, all deadlines are met, and 

quality assurance plans, policies and 

procedures are upheld. CBOs will be 

responsible for participating in all CDCsponsored grantee meetings related to 

CMEP–Respect. There are no costs to 

the respondents other than their time. 

The total estimated annual burden 

hours are 342.
