SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) 

(44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), Federal agencies 

must obtain approval from the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) for each 

collection of information they conduct 

or sponsor. In addition, the PRA also 

requires Federal agencies to provide a 

60-day notice in the Federal Register 

concerning each proposed collection of 

information, including each new 

proposed collection, each proposed 

extension of existing collection of 

information, and each reinstatement of 

previously approved information 

collection before submitting the 

collection to the OMB for approval. To 

comply with this requirement, we are 

publishing this notice of a proposed 

data collection as described below. 

The OMB is particularly interested in 

comments that will help: 

1. Evaluate whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; 

2. Evaluate the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; 

3. Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and 

4. Minimize the burden of the 

collection of information on those who 

are to respond, including through the

use of appropriate automated, 

electronic, mechanical, or other 

technological collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology, 

e.g., permitting electronic submissions 

of responses. 

5. Assess information collection costs. 

Proposed Project 

Online Training for Law Enforcement 

to Reduce Risks Associated with Shift 

Work and Long Work Hours—NEW— 

National Institute for Occupational 

Safety and Health, Centers for Disease 

Control and Prevention (CDC). 

Background and Brief Description 

Law enforcement officers work in 

stressful and dangerous conditions to 

enforce law and order, prevent crime, 

and protect persons and property. Police 

often work during the evening, at night, 

and sometimes irregular and long hours. 

Shift work and long work hours are 

linked to many health and safety risks 

due to disturbances to sleep, circadian 

rhythms, and personal relationships. 

These work schedules and inadequate 

sleep are likely critical contributors to 

the many health problems seen in 

police: shorter life spans, high 

occupational injury rates, and burden of 

chronic illnesses. One important 

strategy to reduce these risks is training 

programs to inform employers and law 

enforcement officers about the risks and 

strategies to reduce the risks. This is a 

new Information Collection Request for 

1 year of data collection. The 

Occupational Safety and Health Act of 

1970 authorizes the National Institute 

for Occupational Safety and Health to 

carry out this data collection. 

The purpose of this project is to 

develop a training program to relay the 

risks linked to shift work and long work 

hours and give workplace strategies for 

employers and personal strategies for 

the officers to reduce the risks. Once 

finalized, the training will be available 

on the NIOSH Web site. 

The training will be pilot tested with 

30 recent graduates of a police academy 

in their first field experience and 30 

experienced officers. CDC will recruit 

sixty law enforcement officers during a 

15-minute phone call. All will work full 

time on fixed night shifts. The pilot test 

will use a pretest and posttest design to 

examine sleep (both duration and 

quality), worktime sleepiness, and 

knowledge retained. Pre-test measures 

will be collected 2 weeks before the 

training. CDC will collect post-test 

measures the week of the training, 1 

week after the training and at 8 and 9 

weeks after the training. Additional 

post-test measures will include feedback 

about the training and if specific 

behaviors changed. 

Before starting the pretest, the 

respondent will sign an informed 

consent form. The pilot pre-test will 

start with the respondent filling out a 10 

minute online survey that includes four 

short surveys: (1) Demographic 

information and work experience; (2) 

the Epworth Sleepiness Scale; (3) the 

Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index; and (4) 

a knowledge test. The respondent will 

be fitted with a wrist actigraph, which 

will record activity and estimate the 

times of sleep. The respondents will 

keep an online sleep activity diary and 

wear the actigraph continuously during 

weeks 1 to 4 of the study. The online 

sleep activity diary takes approximately 

2 minutes a day to complete. The sleep 

diary and actigraph are being used 

together to obtain a more accurate 

timing of respondent’s sleep and 

activity. 

During the third week of the study, 

the respondent will participate in a 3.5- 

hour online training program. 

Immediately after completing the 

training, the respondent will take the 

post-test knowledge test and will 

provide feedback about the training, to 

include barriers to using the training 

information and what influential people 

in their life would want them to do with 

the training information. At the end of 

week 4, the respondent will return the 

actigraph. No data collection will occur 

during weeks 5 to 9 of the study. 

The second post-test period will be 

weeks 11 and 12 of the study (weeks 8 

and 9 after the training) to gather longerterm outcomes. At the beginning of 

week 11, the respondents will be fitted 

with another ACTi graph. The 

respondent will wear the ACTi graph 

and complete the sleep activity diary for 

the next 14 days. At the end of week 12 

of the study, respondent will complete 

the Epworth Sleepiness Scale, 

Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, and 

Changes in Behaviors after Training. 

The combined response time is 5 

minutes. The respondent will return the 

ACTi graph and study ends. 

The burden table lists three 10-minute 

meetings during the post-test period 

when they will return the ACTi graph 

at the end of week 4, be fitted with an 

ACTi graph at the beginning of week 11 

and return it at the end of week 12. The 

respondents will complete the sleep 

activity diary for 42 days total for 2 

minutes each day. The total burden 

hours is 84. 

CDC will use the findings from the 

pilot test to make improvements to the 

training program. The research team 

will reinforce or expand training 

content that showed less than desired 

results on the pilot test. Potential 

impacts of this project include 

improvements in management practices 

such as the design of work schedules 

and improvements in officers’ personal 

behaviors for coping with the demands 

of shift work and long work hours. The 

total estimated annualized burden hours 

is 389. There are no costs to respondents 

other than their time.

Proposed Project 

Annual Progress Report (APR) for 

Injury Control Research Centers 

(ICRC)—New—National Center for 

Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC), 

Centers for Disease Control and 

Prevention (CDC). 

Background and Brief Description 

The Injury Control Research Centers 

(ICRCs) form a national network of ten 

comprehensive academic research 

centers that focus on three core 

functions: Research, training, and 

outreach. ICRCs are on the scientific 

front line conducting cutting-edge, 

multidisciplinary research on the 

causes, outcomes, and prevention of 

injuries and violence. 

ICRC research focuses on issues of 

local and national importance including 

motor vehicle injuries; interpersonal 

violence and suicide; opioid overdoses; 

older adult falls; and traumatic brain 

injuries. ICRCs work with states and 

communities to ensure research is put 

into action to prevent injuries and 

violence. They provide technical 

assistance to disseminate and translate 

research findings which leads to 

increased awareness and influences 

action. ICRCs play a critical role training 

and developing the current and next 

generation of researchers and public 

health professionals. This helps ensure 

there is an adequate supply of qualified 

practitioners and researchers to advance 

prevention research, address new 

problems, and reach new populations 

across the nation. 

The CDC seeks OMB approval for 

three years to collect Annual Progress 

Report (APR) information from 10 

grantees funded under Grants for Injury 

Control Research Centers (ICRC). ICRC 

awardees will report activity 

information to CDC annually using three 

fillable electronic templates. The first 

Word-based template is the principal 

tool for the Indicators Data Collection 

(IDC), which is based on a set of 

program activity indicators and key 

ICRC evaluation questions. The second 

Word-based template collects 

information about non-CDC-funded 

studies, and the third template, which is 

Excel-based, collects information about 

ICRC personnel and publications. 

Information will be reported 

electronically to the NCIPC for program 

monitoring, and hard copies will be 

submitted to CDC’s Office of Financial 

Resources (OFR). Together, the tools 

describe grantees’ annual goals, 

objectives, progress, and performance 

towards overall cooperative agreement 

aims. The tools also describe how 

grantees implement and use evidencebased injury prevention and control 

strategies. 

Information to be collected will 

provide crucial data for program 

performance monitoring, will allow 

CDC to analyze and synthesize 

information from grantees, help ensure 

consistency in documenting progress 

and technical assistance, enhance 

accountability of the use of federal 

funds, and provide timely reports as 

frequently requested by the Department 

of Health and Human Services, the 

White House, and Congress. 

Submission of the Annual Progress 

Report is required for cooperative 

agreement grantees. The total estimated 

annualized burden hours are 500. There 

is no cost to respondents other than 

their time.
