eat a substantial amount of fish from 

Onondaga Lake (300 people); (2) an 

urban population who rely on fish from 

Onondaga Lake as a source of food (100 

people). Trained NYSDOH study staff 

will work closely with local refugee and 

citizen support organizations to get 

people to take part in the study. 

Formative research will be conducted to 

determine the best method for recruiting 

these Syracuse populations who eat fish 

from Onondaga Lake. 

All respondents who consent will 

give blood and urine specimens. Their 

blood will be tested for polychlorinated 

biphenyls (PCBs), mercury, lead, 

cadmium, polybrominated diphenyl 

ethers (PBDEs), perfluorinated 

compounds (PFCs), toxaphene, 

chlordane, oxychlordane and transnonachlor, dieldrin, dechlorane plus, 

omega-3 fatty acids, blood lipids, and 

pesticides. Pesticides will include 

mirex, hexachlorobenzene, 

dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) 

and dichlorodiphenyldichloroethylene 

(DDE). Their urine will be tested for 

creatinine. 

Respondents will also be interviewed. 

They will be asked about demographic 

and lifestyle factors, hobbies, and types 

of jobs which can contribute to chemical 

exposure. Some diet questions will be 

asked, too, with a focus on eating Great 

Lakes fish. There is no cost to 

respondents other than their time spent 

in the study. 

The ATSDR is requesting a two-year 

OMB approval for a total of 188 burden 

hours per year. The agency is authorized 

to conduct this program under the 

Comprehensive Environmental 

Response, Compensation, and Liability 

Act of 1980 (CERCLA), as amended by 

the Superfund Amendments and 

Reauthorization Act of 1986 (SARA).

Proposed Project 

Division of Community Health (DCH) 

Awardee Training Needs Assessment— 

New—National Center for Chronic 

Disease Prevention and Health 

Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for 

Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). 

Background and Brief Description 

The Centers for Disease Control and 

Prevention (CDC) established the 

Division of Community Health (DCH) to 

support multi-sector, community-based 

programs that promote healthy living. 

To support these efforts, DCH 

announced two new cooperative 

agreement programs in 2014, as 

mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES

66380 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 216 / Friday, November 7, 2014 / Notices 

authorized by the Public Health Service 

Act. Both programs will apply public 

health strategies to reduce tobacco use 

and exposure, improve nutrition, 

increase physical activity, and improve 

access to opportunities for chronic 

disease prevention, risk reduction, and 

management. 

The Partnerships to Improve 

Community Health (PICH) program 

(Funding Opportunity Announcement 

(FOA) DP14–1417) will promote the use 

of evidence- and practice-based 

strategies to create or strengthen healthy 

environments that make it easier for 

people to make healthy choices and take 

charge of their health. The 39 PICH 

awardees include both state and local 

governmental agencies and 

nongovernmental organizations. 

Awardees will work through multisector community coalitions of 

businesses, schools, nonprofit 

organizations, and other community 

organizations. Projects will serve three 

types of geographic areas: Large cities 

and urban counties, small cities and 

counties, and American Indian tribes. 

The new Racial and Ethnic 

Approaches to Community Health 

(REACH) cooperative agreement (FOA 

DP14–1419PPHF14) builds on previous 

REACH program activities that began in 

1999 with a focus on racial and ethnic 

communities experiencing health 

disparities. The 49 new REACH 

awardees include local governmental 

agencies, community-based 

nongovernmental organizations, tribes 

and tribal organizations, Urban Indian 

Health Programs, and tribal and 

intertribal consortia. Of these awardees, 

17 are receiving funds for basic 

implementation activities, and 32 are 

receiving funds to immediately expand 

their scope of work to improve health 

and reduce health disparities. REACH is 

financed in part by the Prevention and 

Public Health Fund of the Affordable 

Care Act. 

CDC requests OMB approval to collect 

the information needed to assess and 

prioritize the training needs of PICH and 

REACH awardees and key collaborators. 

A DCH Training Needs Assessment 

survey will be conducted at two points 

in time: Once near the beginning of the 

project period (first quarter of 2015) and 

again in the second year of the project 

period (last quarter of 2016). The first 

administration of the survey will 

provide an initial assessment of awardee 

needs at program start-up. The second 

administration of the needs assessment 

will identify any new or modified 

training needs that arise as awardees 

progress in their cooperative agreement 

activities. Questions within the needs 

assessment focus on awardee 

preferences for training modalities as 

well as facilitators and barriers to 

training access. 

Respondents will be staff members 

and coalition members associated with 

the 88 DCH awardees (49 REACH and 

39 PICH). Information will be requested 

from four individuals affiliated with 

each award: The principal investigator 

or program manager, the lead evaluation 

staff member, the lead media/

communications staff member, and a 

coalition member. The maximum 

number of respondents is 352 (88 

awardees × 4 respondents/awardee). 

Because the REACH and PICH awards 

aim to promote collaborative, multisector efforts, approximately 192 

respondents will be associated with 

private sector entities, and 160 

respondents will be associated with 

state, local, or tribal government 

entities. 

The same survey instrument will be 

administered to all respondents, 

however the estimated burden per 

response varies according to the 

respondent’s project role and 

responsibilities. Information will be 

collected using a Web-based platform. 

Data collection and management will be 

conducted by a contractor on behalf of 

CDC. 

Findings will enable DCH to develop 

appropriate training activities that best 

support awardees’ community efforts to 

fulfill their funded objectives. 

OMB approval is requested for two 

years. Participation is voluntary and 

there are no costs to respondents other 

than their time.
