Prevention (CDC), Department of Health
and Human Services (HHS)
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
Under the National
Childhood Vaccine Injury Act (NCVIA)
(42 U.S.C. 300aa–26), the CDC must
develop vaccine information materials
that all health care providers are
required to give to patients/parents prior
to administration of specific vaccines.
On June 25, 2014, CDC published a
notice in the Federal Register (79 FR
36068) seeking public comments on
proposed new vaccine information
materials for Td, Tdap, Haemophilus
influenzae type b (Hib), and rotavirus
vaccines. Following review of
comments submitted and consultation
as required under the law, CDC has
finalized the materials. Copies of the
final vaccine information materials for
Td, Tdap, Hib, and rotavirus are
available to download from http://
www.cdc.gov/vaccines/hcp/vis/
index.html or http://
www.regulations.gov (see Docket
Number CDC–2014–0007).
DATES: Beginning no later than
November 1, 2015, each health care
provider who administers any Td, Tdap,
Hib, or rotavirus vaccine to any child or
adult in the United States shall provide
copies of the relevant vaccine
information materials contained in this
notice, in conformance with the April
15, 2015 CDC Instructions for the Use of
Vaccine Information Statements prior to

all health care providers in the United
States to any patient (or to the parent or
legal representative in the case of a
child) receiving vaccines covered under
the National Vaccine Injury
Compensation Program (VICP).
Development and revision of the
vaccine information materials, also
known as Vaccine Information
Statements (VIS), have been delegated
by the Secretary to the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Section 2126 requires that the materials
be developed, or revised, after notice to
the public, with a 60-day comment
period, and in consultation with the
Advisory Commission on Childhood
Vaccines, appropriate health care
provider and parent organizations, and
the Food and Drug Administration. The
law also requires that the information
contained in the materials be based on
available data and information, be
presented in understandable terms, and
include:
(1) A concise description of the
benefits of the vaccine,
(2) A concise description of the risks
associated with the vaccine,
(3) A statement of the availability of
the National Vaccine Injury
Compensation Program, and
(4) Such other relevant information as
may be determined by the Secretary.
The vaccines initially covered under
the National Vaccine Injury
Compensation Program were diphtheria,
tetanus, pertussis, measles, mumps,
rubella and poliomyelitis vaccines.
Since April 15, 1992, any health care
provider in the United States who
intends to administer one of these
covered vaccines is required to provide
copies of the relevant vaccine
information materials prior to
administration of any of these vaccines.
Since then, the following vaccines have
been added to the National Vaccine
Injury Compensation Program, requiring
use of vaccine information materials for
them as well: Hepatitis B, Haemophilus
influenzae type b (Hib), varicella
(chickenpox), pneumococcal conjugate,
rotavirus, hepatitis A, meningococcal,
human papillomavirus (HPV), and
seasonal influenza vaccines.
Instructions for use of the vaccine
information materials are found on the
CDC Web site at: http://www.cdc.gov/
vaccines/hcp/vis/index.html.

Proposed Project
Assessing and Evaluating Human
Systems Integration Needs in Mining
(OMB No. 0920–0981, expires 08/31/
2015)—Extension—National Institute
for Occupational Safety and Health
(NIOSH), Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
NIOSH, under Public Law 91–173 as
amended by Public Law 95–164
(Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of
1977), and Public Law 109–236 (Mine
Improvement and New Emergency
Response Act of 2006) has the
responsibility to conduct research to
improve working conditions and to
prevent accidents and occupational
diseases in underground coal and metal/
nonmetal mines in the United States of
America. NIOSH proposes to request
additional time through an extension of
the approved OMB control number in
order to collect assessment and
evaluation data.
The project is aimed at determining
the following information with regards
to the necessary inclusion of Human
Systems Integration into research
related to underground coal mining: (1)
What information is critical for a miner
to safely perform his job, (2) what
processes (e.g., expertise, decision
PO 00000
Frm 00047
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
making, attention, etc.) are necessary for
a miner to effectively perform his job,
and (3) how do the miner and the
machine interact. In order to accomplish
these goals, the following data
collection instruments are being used:
The General Preference Questionnaire
was designed to determine how and
when miners working in an
underground coal mine prefer to have
information about their work
environment, the location of
themselves, others, and equipment
communicated to them while they are
working. This questionnaire will be
administered to 75 miners working in
an underground coal mine.
The Subject Matter Expert (SME)
Questionnaire was designed to
determine how subject matter experts
(e.g., experienced continuous miner
operators) prefer to have information
about their work environment, the
location of themselves, others and
equipment communicated to them
while they are working. The
questionnaire will be administered to 50
miners working in an underground coal
mine in one of two positions:
Continuous miner operator or fire boss.
The Safety Director Questionnaire
was designed to determine what
machinery and equipment is currently
being used within the underground coal
mining environment. This questionnaire
will be administered to up to 50 Safety
Directors working at an underground
mining operation.
Vest Usability Testing was designed
to examine the effectiveness and
viability of physically integrating
equipment. This will be done by asking
a group of miners to wear mining vests
during their normal work hours and
complete a questionnaire before and
after the vest wearing period.
Approximately 60 underground coal
miners will be asked to take part in Vest
Usability Testing.
The Roof Bolter Questionnaire will be
used to assess the functional lighting
needs and problems around roof bolting
machines and the usability of a lighting
feedback system for specific controls.
Approximately 30 Roof Bolter Operators
will be asked to complete the Roof
Bolter Questionnaire (half before the
intervention and half after).
There are no costs to the miners as
study participation will take place
during their normal working hours.
Thus, any cost associated with the
experiment will be incurred by the
mining company. The total estimated
annual burden hours are 442.
