Proposed Data Collections Submitted

for Public Comment and

Recommendations

In compliance with the requirement

of section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 for

opportunity for public comment on

proposed data collection projects, the

Centers for Disease Control and

Prevention (CDC) will publish periodic

summaries of proposed projects. To

request more information on the

proposed projects or to obtain a copy of

the data collection plans and

instruments, call the CDC Reports

Clearance Officer on (404) 639–7090.

practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the

agency’s estimate of the burden of the

proposed collection of information; (c)

ways to enhance the quality, utility, and

clarity of the information to be

collected; and (d) ways to minimize the

burden of the collection of information

on respondents, including through the

use of automated collection techniques

Proposed Project

State Surveys on Intimate Partner

Violence (IPV) and Sexual Violence

(SV)—NEW—National Center for Injury

Prevention and Control (NCIPC),

Centers for Disease Control and

Prevention. Violence against women has

become a major public health issue in

the nation. It is the leading cause of

injury for women between the ages of 18

and 44. The National Violence Against

Women Survey, conducted from

November 1995 to May 1996, estimates

that approximately 1.9 million women

are physically assaulted annually in this

country by an intimate partner (e.g.,

current or former husband, cohabiting

partner, boyfriend or date). The 1994

National Crime Victimization Survey

estimates that over 432,000 rapes or

sexual assaults were perpetrated against

U.S. females, age 12 years and older.

The National Center for Injury

Prevention and Control has recognized

intimate partner violence (IPV) and

sexual violence (SV) as public health

problems for several years. Survey data

are the most common data used to

determine incidence and prevalence

rates, risk and resiliency factors, and

consequences (e.g., physical injuries,

psychological trauma) of IPV and SV.

The Department of Justice has compiled

a number of one-time looks at VAW

from a variety of perspectives, primarily

provided by the criminal justice system,

Federal Register / Vol. 66, No. 87 / Friday, May 4, 2001 / Notices 22579

which counts only those cases that are

reported.

There is a need for collection of

standardized data on a consistent and

continual basis, at the state and

community levels in order to target

limited resources towards populations

in greatest need of prevention and

intervention programs and services. As

a result CDC plans to develop and pilot

test two surveys on IPV and SV for

possible inclusion in the Behavioral

Risk Factor Surveillance System

(BRFSS). The surveys will be

administered to non-institutionalized

women and men, 18 years of age and

older. The pilot test will be conducted

through a computer-assisted telephone

interviewing system, using a sample of

women and men randomly selected

from six states. The overall benefit of

this pilot is to increase knowledge

regarding the magnitude and scope of

violence against women and men in the

U.S. Ultimately, the CDC intends to

establish an on-going data collection

system for monitoring IPV and SV at the

state level.

The goals of the project are to: (1)

determine the questions’ utility,

participant reactions, and length of

surveys; and (2) compile and

disseminate the results of the pilot test

and prepare a report for submission to

the BRFSS coordinators for

consideration for inclusion as an

optional module for FY 2003. There are

no costs to respondents.

Prevention of the Complications of

Bleeding Disorders through

Hemophilia Treatment Centers; Notice

of Availability of Funds

A. Purpose

The Centers for Disease Control and

Prevention (CDC) announces the

availability of fiscal year (FY) 2001

funds for a cooperative agreement

program for the Prevention of the

Complications of Bleeding Disorders

through Hemophilia Treatment Centers.

This program addresses the ‘‘Healthy

People 2010’’ focus areas of Access to

Quality Health-Services, Disability and

Secondary Conditions, HIV, and

Immunization and Infectious Diseases.

For more information on ‘‘Healthy

People 2010’’ visit the internet site:

http://www.health.gov/healthypeople.

The purpose of the hemophilia

complications prevention cooperative

agreement program is to assist in: (1)

Providing a regional network of

comprehensive prevention services

through hemophilia treatment centers to

persons with hemophilia and related

disorders including women with

bleeding disorders to prevent

complications through assessment,

surveillance, outreach, education,

consultation, and management; (2)

maintaining a prevention evaluation

network to assess the efficacy of these

prevention services; (3) participating in

blood safety monitoring and

surveillance efforts; and (4)

collaborating with lay organizations to

deliver consistent prevention messages

aimed at preventing complications.

B. Eligible Applicants

Assistance will be provided only to

hemophilia regional core centers,

defined as public or private non-profit

entities that provide regional services

and support to a network of

comprehensive hemophilia treatment

centers (HTCs) within their regional

catchment area. A HTC is defined as a

specialty, prevention, diagnostic and

treatment program with the goal of

providing family-centered, state-of-theart medical and psycho-social

evaluation and care, dental, education,

genetic, research, and support services

for individuals and families with

bleeding disorders.

Note: Title 2 of the United States Code,

chapter 26, section 1611 states that an

organization described in section 501(c)(4) of

the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 that

engages in lobbying activities is not eligible

to receive Federal funds constituting an

award, grant, cooperative agreement,

contract, loan, or any other form.

C. Availability of Funds

Approximately $6,700,000 is available

in FY 2001 to fund approximately 12

awards. It is expected that the average

award will be $400,000, ranging from

$200,000 to $875,000. It is expected that

the awards will begin on or about

September 30, 2001, and will be made

for a 12-month budget period within a

project period of up to five years. The

funding estimates may change.

Continuation awards within an

approved project period will be made

on the basis of satisfactory progress as

evidenced by required reports and the

availability of funds.

Funding Preference

One award per region will be made to

support the core center and other

collaborating HTC performance sites in

the region. For the purposes of these

awards, regional breakdowns are as

follows: Region I: Connecticut, Maine,

Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode

Island, and Vermont; Region II: New

Jersey, New York, Puerto Rico, and the
