subject firm during the relevant time
period. The Department conducted a
further investigation and determined
that none of the direct customers of the
subject firm were certified eligible for
TAA during the relevant time period.
Furthermore, the Department
requested an additional list of customers
from the subject firm and conducted a
new customer survey regarding their
purchases of furniture blanks, stair
balusters, and handle blanks in 2005,
2006 and January through May of 2007
over the corresponding 2006 period.
This survey revealed no imports of
furniture blanks, stair balusters, and
handle blanks during the relevant time
period.

After reconsideration, I affirm the
original notice of negative
determination of eligibility to apply for
worker adjustment assistance for

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

rfrederick on PROD1PC67 with NOTICES

I. Background
The Department of Labor has been
continually surveying hired farm
workers since 1988 via the National
Agricultural Workers Survey (NAWS).
The survey’s primary focus is to
describe the employment, demographic,
and health characteristics of hired crop
farm workers. It is the only nationallevel data source for this information.
The NAWS provides an
understanding of the manpower
resources available to U.S. agriculture,
and both public and private service
programs use the data for planning,
implementing, and evaluating farm
worker programs.
The NAWS samples hired crop farm
workers in three cycles each year to
capture the seasonality of agricultural
employment. Workers are randomly
sampled at their work sites. During the
initial contact, arrangements are made
to interview the respondent at home or
at another location of convenience to
the respondent. Depending on the
information needs and resources of the
various federal agencies that use NAWS
data, between 1,500 and 4,000 workers
are interviewed each year.
The primary NAWS questionnaire
routinely provides a standard set of
information on the employment,

VerDate Aug<31>2005

Jkt 211001

demographic, and health characteristics
of hired crop workers. When new
information is required, Federal
agencies add supplemental collection
instruments to the NAWS.
Beginning with the October 2007
interview cycle, the Employment and
Training Administration, in partnership
with the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention, National Institute for
Occupational Safety and Health,
proposes to collect additional
information on the occupational health
of hired crop workers via the NAWS.
The new information would come from
administering new questions on
occupational mental health.
The purpose of this notice is to solicit
comments regarding: (1) The currently
approved versions of the primary
questionnaire and the agricultural
occupational injury supplement; and (2)
the addition of the occupational mental
health questions. The primary
questionnaire, injury supplement, and
proposed occupational mental health
questions are discussed below.
Primary NAWS Questionnaire
The questionnaire is administered to
hired crop agricultural workers 14 years
old and older. It contains a household
grid, where the education level and
migration history of the respondent and
each member of the respondent’s
household are recorded, and an
employment grid, where a full year of
respondent’s employment is detailed.
Information on income, assets, legal
status, and use of contribution- and
needs-based programs is also elicited.
In the employment grid, interviewers
record the task and crop for agricultural
jobs, type and amount of nonagricultural employment, periods of
unemployment, and time spent outside
the United States. For the respondent’s
current agricultural job, information on
how the job was obtained, wages and
payment method (piece or hourly),
employment type (direct hire or laborcontracted) and duration (year-round or
seasonal), benefits, availability of water
and sanitation, pesticide training,
transportation, and housing
arrangements is recorded.
Demographic and health information
collected via the primary questionnaire
includes age, gender, place of birth,
marital status, languages spoken,
English language ability, participation
in education and employment training
programs, health history (lifetime),
musculoskeletal problems (last 12
months), and quality of and access to
health care.

The Agricultural Occupational Injury
Supplement
This CDC/NIOSH-sponsored
supplement is administered to all
NAWS respondents who had a
qualifying agricultural occupational
injury in the United States in the 12month period before the date of
interview. For each qualifying injury,
the respondent is asked how, when and
where the injury occurred, the body
part(s) injured, where medical treatment
was received, how the treatment was
paid for, and the number of days the
respondent couldn’t work or worked at
a reduced activity level.
Proposed Occupational Mental Health
Supplement
CDC/NIOSH is proposing to add, for
one year only, an occupational mental
health supplement. The supplement
will include four questions each
concerning decisions latitude and work
limitations, two questions each
concerning job demands and job
insecurity, and one question each
concerning perceived general health and
family concerns. In addition, the Center
for Epidemiologic Studies Depression
Scale (CES–D) Short Form 10 (SF–10),
which contains 10 items, would be
administered.
II. Review Focus
The Department of Labor is
particularly interested in comments
which:
• 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;
• 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;
• Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
• Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriated automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submissions
of responses.
