Substances and Disease Registry

Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 117 / Friday, June 17, 2022 / Notices 36503 

Background and Brief Description 

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances 

(PFAS) are a large group of man-made 

chemicals that have been used in 

industry and consumer products 

worldwide since the 1950s. Although 

some PFAS are no longer produced in 

the United States, many remain in the 

environment and may impact people’s 

health. Thus, PFAS are contaminants 

that have gained national prominence 

over the last decade. 

Under Section 8006 of the 

Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2018, 

the Agency for Toxic Substances and 

Disease Registry and CDC’s National 

Center for Environmental Health 

(ATSDR/NCEH) obtained initial 

approval for a three-year Paperwork 

Reduction Act clearance for a new 

information collection request (ICR). 

During the initial approval period, 

ATSDR/NCEH conducted eight 

exposure assessments (EAs) at current 

or former domestic military installations 

known to have PFAS in drinking water, 

groundwater, or any other sources of 

water. The information collection 

allowed for ATSDR/NCEH to conduct 

the eight EAs, with the option for the 

completion of seven additional EAs at 

either Department of Defense (DoD) or 

non-DoD locations for a total of 15 EAs. 

Under this Revision ICR titled ‘‘Peror Polyfluoroalkyl Substances Exposure 

Assessments (PFAS EAs)’’ (OMB 

Control No. 0923–0059, Exp. 06/30/ 

2022), ATSDR/NCEH now anticipates 

conducting up to three PFAS EAs each 

year for the next three years. This 

Revision will use lessons learned from 

the eight completed EAs to modify the 

methods used to conduct a maximum of 

nine additional EAs at either DoD or 

non-DoD locations. Briefly, protocol 

revisions include modifications to the 

protocol recruitment strategies (such as 

increasing in the number of letters of 

invitation per EA due to low response 

rates observed), allowing options to 

conduct door-to-door recruitment and 

telephone questionnaires when 

warranted, and modifying water intake 

questions to evaluate exposure that may 

have occurred when PFAS was present 

in the water. 

Community Event Evaluation Survey: 

ATSDR/NCEH will hold a public 

meeting prior to the start of the EA at 

each EA location. The EA team will use 

the community event evaluation survey 

to receive feedback from prospective EA 

participants about ATSDR/NCEH’s 

PFAS public health messaging, the 

enrollment process, and local feelings 

toward the PFAS EA project. It is 

assumed that approximately 250 

community members will attend the 

public meeting to inform the 

community about the EA effort. Using a 

response rate of 65 percent, ATSDR/ 

NCEH assume that 163 community 

members will fill out the community 

event evaluation survey at each EA 

location and the survey will take 

approximately five minutes (489 

members for three EAs). The resultant 

time burden is 41 hours annually for 

three EAs. 

Biological Testing Tracking: All 

participants, adults (864) and children 

(273), will be provided a biological 

testing tracking form when they sign in 

for the testing event. The form will 

ensure that all appropriate forms are 

completed and all biological samples 

are collected. The time associated with 

filling out the form as the participant 

moves between the various stations and 

the time needed to collect the biological 

samples is approximately 20 minutes, 

resulting in a burden of 379 hours 

annually for three EAs. 

Household Eligibility Screener: 

ATSDR/NCEH will recruit a desired 

sample size of 379 respondents per EA 

(1,137 total per year for three EAs) using 

statistical household sampling methods. 

Eligibility criteria for individuals 

include specific age intervals (i.e., 

children older than three years given the 

lack of NHANES comparison data for 

younger children), lack of bleeding 

disorders that would prevent a blood 

draw, and time of residency (i.e., at least 

one year in the home prior to removal 

of PFAS from the drinking water). 

Applying an average U.S. household 

size of 2.5 members, per EA, ATSDR/ 

NCEH will enroll respondents from 152 

eligible households. ATSDR/NCEH will 

use a response rate of 10% (65% was 

assumed in the original protocol) based 

on the response rate in the eight 

completed EAs. This will require 

administering a five-minute household 

eligibility phone script to 1,520 headsof-households per EA, or to 4,560 headsof-households per year. The annual time 

burden requested for eligibility 

screening is 380 hours for three EAs. 

Consents: All eligible respondents 

will be consented before being included 

in each EA. The consent forms will 

include adult consent, and parental 

permission and child assent forms, as 

appropriate. Each consented respondent 

will provide a serum and a urine 

sample. In addition, heads of 

households from 10% of households 

using tap water for their drinking water 

will consent to provide tap water and 

indoor dust samples. The consent forms 

will include permission to store some 

biospecimens and environmental 

samples for future analysis and will 

include permission to recontact 

respondents for potential investigations 

or studies in the future. ATSDR/NCEH 

will also collect contact information to 

provide respondents with their 

individual sampling results. The time 

associated with administering the 

consent forms is approximately 10 

minutes for 864 adults; 10 minutes for 

273 parents providing permission for 

their children aged 3–17 years old; and 

10 minutes for 115 children aged 12–17 

years old who assent for themselves. 

Exposure Assessment Questionnaires 

for Biological and Environmental 

Testing for Adults, Parents, or Children: 

ATSDR/NCEH will administer an 

exposure questionnaire to all consented 

respondents that includes questions 

associated with potential exposure to 

PFAS both inside and outside the home 

(e.g., work or school). The adult 

questionnaire also includes several 

questions associated with water use and 

flooring type while the child 

questionnaire includes questions 

regarding playing in soil; these 

questions are intended to evaluate 

potential exposure and to support the 

environmental testing. The time 

associated with administering the 

questionnaire and completing the 

biological sampling is approximately 30 

minutes for 864 adults; 15 minutes for 

158 parents responding for their 

children, 3–11 years old; and 15 

minutes for 115 children, 12–17 years 

old, who respond for themselves. 

Household Recruitment Script for 

Environmental Sampling: The 

households providing environmental 

samples (tap water and indoor dust) will 

be a random 10% subset of households 

that report using tap water for drinking 

water. Assuming a 65% response rate, 

ATSDR/NCEH will administer a 5- 

minute recruitment script to 23 headsof households who are eligible to take 

part in each EA. This will result in 

annual recruitment of 70 heads-ofhouseholds and six hours for three EAs. 

Consent for Environmental Testing: 

ATSDR/NCEH will consent a 10% 

subset of households deemed eligible 

for the EA for testing of tap water and 

indoor dust samples; therefore, the 

desired number of households is 15 per 

EA, or 45 per year. The time associated 

with consenting to the environmental 

sampling is 10 minutes, resulting in a 

burden of eight hours annually for three 

EAs. 

Environmental Sample Collection 

Form: ATSDR/NCEH will collect 

samples from approximately 15 

households per EA or 45 households 

annually. The average time burden is 

estimated as 15 minutes per response as 

documented in the sample collection 

form.
