Proposed Project 

Assessing the Infrastructure for Public 

Sexually Transmitted Disease (STD) 

Prevention Services—NEW—National 

Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, 

STD, and TB Prevention (NCHHSTP), 

Centers for Disease Control and 

Prevention (CDC). 

Background and Brief Description 

Annually, there are nearly 20 million 

cases of sexually transmitted diseases 

(STD) in the United States (US) causing 

an estimated $15.6 billion in direct 

medical costs. A significant percentage 

of reported cases of STDs are diagnosed 

in publicly funded clinics, such as STD 

clinics that are operated by state health 

departments (SHDs) and local health 

departments (LHDs). Additionally, state 

and local health departments also 

engage in other essential STD 

prevention activities such as partner 

services and disease surveillance. 

Therefore, it is important to periodically 

assess the current level of publiclyfunded STD prevention services that are 

offered by health departments in the US. 

The STD infrastructure survey will 

aid CDC in understanding the scope of 

the delivery of timely public STD 

preventive and clinical services that are 

provided to reduce the number of newly 

acquired STDs and prevent STD-related 

sequelae. There is no national data 

available that focuses on detailed STD 

prevention activities conducted by state 

and local health departments. 

The purpose of this survey is to 

periodically, (i.e., every three years) 

examine STD prevention services 

provided by local and state health 

departments. The survey will include 

all state health departments and a 

nationally representative sample of local 

health departments in the US. The local 

health department sample will allow for 

estimates by jurisdiction population size 

and US Census region. 

The survey contains sections on STD 

program structure within the health 

department, STD-related clinical 

services (local health departments only), 

partner and other prevention services, 

and workforce and impacts of any 

budget reductions. 

CDC will administer the STD 

infrastructure survey to all 50 state 

health departments and a random 

sample of 668 local health departments 

from a list of local health departments 

maintained by the National Association 

of City and County Health Officials 

(NACCHO). Using a web-based survey, 

multiple reminders will be sent to nonresponders in order to reach the target 

of 44 completed state and 334 

completed local surveys for each data 

collection (different respondents per 

data collection). The total estimated 

annual burden hours are 238. There is 

no cost to respondents other than their 

time.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background: The Advisory Board was 

established under the Energy Employees 

Occupational Illness Compensation 

Program Act of 2000 to advise the 

President on a variety of policy and 

technical functions required to 

implement and effectively manage the 

new compensation program. Key 

functions of the Advisory Board include 

providing advice on the development of 

probability of causation guidelines, 

which have been promulgated by the 

Department of Health and Human 

Services (HHS) as a final rule; advice on 

methods of dose reconstruction, which 

have also been promulgated by HHS as 

a final rule; advice on the scientific 

validity and quality of dose estimation 

and reconstruction efforts being 

performed for purposes of the 

compensation program; and advice on 

petitions to add classes of workers to the 

Special Exposure Cohort (SEC). 

In December 2000, the President 

delegated responsibility for funding, 

staffing, and operating the Advisory 

Board to HHS, which subsequently 

delegated this authority to the CDC. 

NIOSH implements this responsibility 

for CDC. The charter was issued on 

August 3, 2001, renewed at appropriate 

intervals, rechartered on March 22, 2016 

pursuant to Executive Order 13708, and 

will expire on September 30, 2017. 

Purpose: The Advisory Board is 

charged with (a) providing advice to the 

Secretary, HHS, on the development of 

guidelines under Executive Order 

13179; (b) providing advice to the 

Secretary, HHS, on the scientific 

validity and quality of dose 

reconstruction efforts performed for this 

program; and (c) upon request by the 

Secretary, HHS, advise the Secretary on 

whether there is a class of employees at 

any Department of Energy facility who 

were exposed to radiation but for whom 

it is not feasible to estimate their 

radiation dose, and on whether there is 

reasonable likelihood that such 

radiation doses may have endangered 

the health of members of this class. The 

Subcommittee for Dose Reconstruction 

Reviews was established to aid the 

Advisory Board in carrying out its duty 

to advise the Secretary, HHS, on dose 

reconstruction. 

Matters To Be Considered: The agenda 

for the Subcommittee meeting includes 

the following dose reconstruction 

program quality management and 

assurance activities: Dose reconstruction 

cases under review from Sets 14–23, 

including the Oak Ridge sites (Y–12, K– 

25, Oak Ridge National Laboratory), 

Hanford, Feed Materials Production 

Center (‘‘Fernald’’), Lawrence Livermore 

National Laboratory, Mound Plant, 

Rocky Flats Plant, Nevada Test Site, 

Idaho National Laboratory, Savannah 

River Site, Brookhaven National 

Laboratory, Westinghouse, W.R. Grace, 

Uranium Mill in Monticello, Ventron 

Corporation, Weldon Springs Plant, and 

other Department of Energy and 

‘‘Atomic Weapons Employer’’ facilities. 

The agenda is subject to change as 

priorities dictate. 

The Director, Management Analysis 

and Services Office, has been delegated 

the authority to sign Federal Register 

notices pertaining to announcements of 

meetings and other committee 

management activities, for both the 

Centers for Disease Control and 

Prevention and the Agency for Toxic 

Substances and Disease Registry.
