health effects studies at each Superfund

site from potentially responsible parties.

The recipient would agree to maintain

an accounting system that will keep an

accurate, complete, and current

accounting of all financial transactions

on a site-specific basis, i.e., individual

time, travel, and associated cost

including indirect cost, as appropriate

for the site. The recipient will retain the

documents and records to support these

financial transactions, for possible use

in a cost recovery case, for a minimum

of 10 years after submission of a final

Financial Status Report (FSR), unless

there is a litigation, claim, negotiation,

audit, or other action involving the

specific site, then the records will be

maintained until resolution of all issues

on the specific site.

E. Third Party Agreements

Project activities which are approved

for contracting pursuant to the prior

approval provisions shall be formalized

in a written agreement that clearly

establishes the relationship between the

grantee and the third party.

The written agreement shall at a

minimum:

1. State or incorporate by reference all

applicable requirements imposed on the

contractors under the grant by the terms of

the grant, including requirements concerning

peer review and technical review, release of

data, ownership of data, and the arrangement

for copyright when publications, data or

other copyrightable works are developed in

the course of work under an ATSDR grant

supported project or activity.

2. State that any copyrighted or

copyrightable works shall be subject to a

royalty-free, nonexclusive, and irrevocable

license to the Government to reproduce,

publish, or otherwise use them, and to

authorize others to do so for Federal

Government purposes.

3. State that whenever any work subject to

this copyright policy may be developed by a

contractor under a grant, the written

agreement (contract) must require the

contractor to comply with these requirements

and can in no way diminish the

Government’s right in that work.

4. State the activities to be performed, the

time schedule for those activities, the

policies and procedures for carrying out the

agreement, and the maximum amount of

money for which the grantee may become

liable to the third party.

The written agreement required shall

not relieve the grantee of any part of its

responsibility or accountability to

ATSDR under the grant. The agreement

shall, therefore, retain sufficient rights

and control to the grantee to enable it

to fulfill this responsibility and

accountability.

Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork

Reduction Act Review

The Centers for Disease Control and

Prevention (CDC) publishes a list of

information collection requests under

review, in compliance with the

Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.

Chapter 35). To request a copy of these

requests, call the CDC Reports Clearance

Office on (404) 639–7090.

The following request have been

submitted for review since the last

publication date on March 21, 1996.

Proposed Project

1. Phase 2, 1996 National Health

Interview Survey, Basic Module (0920–

0214). The annual National Health

Interview Survey (NHIS) is a basic

source of general statistics on the health

of the U.S. population. Due to the

integration of health surveys in the

Department of Health and Human

Services, the NHIS also has become the

sampling frame and first stage of data

collection for other major surveys,

including the Medical Expenditure

Panel Survey, the National Survey of

Family Growth, and the National Health

and Nutrition Examination Survey. By

linking to the NHIS, the analysis

potential of these surveys increases. The

NHIS has long been used by

government, university, and private

researchers to evaluate both general

health and specific issues, such as

cancer, AIDS, and childhood

immunizations. Journalists use its data

to inform the general public. It will

continue to be a leading source of data

for the Congressionally-mandated

‘‘Health US’’ and related publications,

as well as the single most important

source of statistics to track progress

toward the National Health Promotion

and Disease Prevention Objectives,

‘‘Healthy People 2,000.’’

Because of survey integration and

changes in the health and health care of

the U.S. population, demands on the

NHIS have changed and increased,

leading to a major redesign. Improved

information technology is planned,

especially computer assisted personal

interviewing (CAPI.) This clearance is

for a one-time data collection, to

introduce, test, and evaluate the

redesigned NHIS data system. This data

collection, planned for July–December

1996, is also expected to produce data

of sufficient quality to allow publication

of national estimates and release of

public use micro data files. The

resulting new NHIS data system is

expected to be in the field for at least

10 years, beginning in January, 1997.

Separate clearance will be requested for

the post-1996 period.

2. Ethnographic Study of Tuberculosis Outreach Worker Activities - New - This data collection will generate descriptive

data from those directly involved and responsible for providing outreach to identified TB patients to gain an understanding

of outreach activities, how they occur, and their level of effectiveness. Three interview guides have been developed

for use with TB outreach workers, their supervisor and a small number of outreach patients. This effort will result

in a more comprehensive picture of effective and efficient TB outreach activities. The major product of this effort

will be a descriptive analytical report detailing the ‘‘lessons learned’’.
