provides advice and recommendations 

to the Secretary, HHS, and the Assistant 

Secretary for Health on matters 

pertaining to the continuance and 

improvement of functions within the 

authority of HHS directed toward 

protections for human subjects in 

research. SACHRP was established by 

the Secretary, HHS, on October 1, 2002. 

OHRP is seeking nominations of 

qualified candidates to fill three 

positions on the Committee membership 

which will become available on March 

1, 2011. 

DATES: Nominations for membership on 

the Committee must be received no later

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Committee shall advise on matters 

pertaining to the continuance and 

improvement of functions within the 

authority of HHS directed toward 

protections for human subjects in 

research. Specifically, the Committee 

will provide advice relating to the 

responsible conduct of research 

involving human subjects with 

particular emphasis on special 

populations such as neonates and 

children, prisoners, and the decisionally 

impaired; pregnant women, embryos 

and fetuses; individuals and 

populations in international studies; 

investigator conflicts of interest; and 

populations in which there are 

individually identifiable samples, data, 

or information. 

In addition, the Committee is 

responsible for reviewing selected 

ongoing work and planned activities of 

OHRP and other offices/agencies within 

HHS responsible for human subjects 

protection. These evaluations may 

include, but are not limited to, a review 

of assurance systems, the application of 

minimal research risk standards, the 

granting of waivers, education programs 

sponsored by OHRP, and the ongoing 

monitoring and oversight of 

institutional review boards and the 

institutions that sponsor research. 

Nominations: The Office for Human 

Research Protections is requesting 

nominations to fill three positions for 

voting members of SACHRP. These 

positions will become vacant on March

candidates for consideration are being 

sought from a wide array of fields, 

including, but not limited to: public 

health and medicine, behavioral and 

social sciences, health administration, 

and biomedical ethics. To qualify for 

consideration of appointment to the 

Committee, an individual must possess 

demonstrated experience and expertise 

in any of the several disciplines and 

fields pertinent to human subjects 

protection and/or clinical research. 

The individuals selected for 

appointment to the Committee will 

serve as voting members. 

The individuals selected for 

appointment to the Committee can be 

invited to serve a term of up to four 

years. Committee members receive a 

stipend and, when applicable,

required to provide detailed information 

concerning such matters as financial 

holdings, consultancies, and research 

grants or contracts to permit evaluation 

of possible sources of conflict of 

interest.

Proposed Project 

Workload Management Study of 

Central Cancer Registries—New— 

Division of Cancer Prevention and 

Control, National Center for Chronic 

Disease Prevention and Health 

Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for 

Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). 

Background and Brief Description 

CDC currently supports the National 

Program of Cancer Registries (NPCR), a 

group of central cancer registries in 45 

States, the District of Columbia, and 2 

territories. The central cancer registries 

are data systems that collect, manage, 

and analyze data about cancer cases and 

cancer deaths. NPCR-funded central 

cancer registries submit populationbased cancer incidence data to CDC on 

an annual basis (OMB No. 0920–0469, 

exp. 1/31/2010). In addition, NPCRfunded registries submit program and 

performance indicator information to 

CDC on a semi-annual schedule (OMB 

No. 0920–0706, exp. 12/31/2011). CDC 

uses the performance indicators to 

evaluate the registries’ use of funds, 

their progress toward meeting 

objectives, and their infrastructure and 

operational attributes. 

Central cancer registries report that 

they are chronically understaffed, and 

many registries are concerned about the 

impact of staff shortages on data quality 

standards. Staffing patterns are known 

to vary widely from registry to registry, 

and registries differ greatly in the 

number of incidence cases that they 

process as well as their use of 

information technology. Cancer 

registries have asked for clear staffing 

guidelines based on registry 

characteristics such as size (i.e., number 

of new cases annually), degree of 

automation, and registry-specific 

reporting procedures. 

CDC proposes to conduct a one-time 

Workload Management Survey (WLM) 

in 2010 to inform the development of 

staffing guidelines for central cancer 

registries. The WLM survey questions 

do not duplicate the program and 

performance indicator information 

reported to CDC on a routine basis. 

Respondents will be cancer registrars in 

the NPCR-funded central cancer 

registries in 45 States and the District of 

Columbia. Cancer registrars at each 

registry will maintain a paper-based 

Work Activities Journal for a one-week 

period. At the end of the week, the 

registry manager will consolidate the 

individual journal worksheets to 

prepare an aggregate Workload 

Management Survey for the registry, 

which will be submitted to CDC 

electronically. 

Results of the WLM survey will 

enable CDC to assess the workforce 

necessary for meeting data reporting 

requirements and to estimate the impact 

of planned changes to surveillance data 

reporting. Finally, CDC will develop 

specific guidance so that cancer registry 

managers can more effectively measure 

workload, evaluate the need for staff 

and staff credentials, and advocate for 

adequate staffing. 

Participation in the survey is 

voluntary. There are no costs to 

respondents other than their time.
