Abstract: The Business Opportunity
Rule requires business opportunity
sellers to furnish prospective purchasers
a disclosure document that provides
information regarding the seller, the
seller’s business, and the nature of the
proposed business opportunity, as well
as additional information to substantiate
any claims about actual or potential
sales, income, or profits for a
prospective business opportunity
purchaser. The seller must also preserve
information that forms a reasonable
basis for such claims. The Rule is
designed to ensure that prospective
purchasers receive information to help
them evaluate business opportunities.
Sellers must disclose five key items of
information in a simple, one-page
document: (1) The seller’s identifying
information; (2) whether the seller
makes a claim about the purchaser’s
likely earnings (and, if yes, the seller
must provide information supporting
any such claims); (3) whether the seller,
its affiliates, or key personnel have been
involved in certain legal actions (and, if
yes, the seller must provide a separate
list of those actions); (4) whether the
seller has a cancellation or refund
policy (and, if yes, the seller must
provide a separate document stating the
material terms of such policies); and (5)
a list of persons who have purchased
the business opportunity within the
previous three years. Misrepresentations
and omissions are prohibited under the
Rule, and for sales conducted in
languages other than English, all
disclosures must be provided in the
language in which the sale is conducted.
Estimated Annual Burden Hours:
10,065.
Estimated Annual Labor Costs:

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
Examining Safety and Health Among
Aviation Industry Workers in Alaska: A
Survey—New—National Institute for
Occupational Safety and Health
(NIOSH), Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The mission of the National Institute
for Occupational Safety and Health
(NIOSH) is to promote safety and health
at work for all people through research
and prevention. The Occupational
Safety and Health Act, 91 (section 20[a]
[1]), authorizes NIOSH to conduct
research to advance the health and
safety of workers.
The Alaska Department of Labor and
Workforce Development received over
320,000 reports of occupational injury
or illness which cost more than $3
billion in workers’ compensation
benefits from 2000–2013. Maintenance
technicians and ramp/baggage/cargo/
dock agents made up the largest number
of claims from the aviation industry.
Among these workers, the most
frequently observed injury event was
overexertion/bodily reaction, which
most often led to sprains, strains, and
tears.
NIOSH is proposing to update
findings from a NIOSH-funded survey
conducted in Alaska during 2001–2002
on attitudes and practices of pilots and
aviation operators. This project is part of
a larger National Occupational Research
Agenda project ‘‘Improving Safety in the
Commercial Aviation Industry in
Alaska’’ which includes a survey of
aviation workers in Alaska using
workers’ compensation claims data to
guide the selection of employee groups
to target for survey participation.
The goals of this study are (1) To
better understand work practices and
the work environment where injuries
occur in the aviation industry, (2) To
identify and quantify the characteristics,
attitudes, practices, and observations of
workers to determine potential risk
factors, and (3) To provide a snapshot of
workers’ perceived safety and health
needs and concerns. The results of the
study will be used to develop
denominators for each occupation;
identify statistically significant
correlations between attitudes,
behaviors, company policies, and
accident rates; guide the development of
prioritized evidence-based interventions
and safety solutions for these workers
and potentially other workers with
similar tasks and in similar
environments; and generate hypotheses
for future research on health and safety
topics in the aviation industry.
NIOSH has contracted with the
University of Alaska Anchorage’s
Institute of Social and Economic
Research (ISER) to develop and conduct
the surveys. ISER conducted the
previous survey of Alaska operators and
pilots in 2001 and 2002 and has
extensive experience in survey research
in Alaska. The statewide survey
questionnaire will be administered to
air taxi and commuter airline operators
(including the subset of single-pilot
operators), commercial pilots, ramp/
baggage/cargo/dock agents, customer
service agents, and maintenance
technicians.
The questionnaire for operators
requests the number of employed pilots,
ramp/baggage/cargo/dock agents,
customer service agents, and
maintenance technicians. This second
element in the sample design will allow
for the determination of the number of
employees in each occupational group
needed to complete the survey. The
operator questionnaire requests the
number of employees in the four
occupational groups—pilots, mechanics,
customer service agents, and ramp/
baggage/cargo/dock agents, and their
names and contact information.
The burden table lists the estimated
population size of 306 operators; 820
commercial pilots; 1,400 maintenance
technicians; 1,100 ramp/baggage/cargo/
dock agents; and 1,600 customer service
agents based on data from the Alaska
Department of Labor and Workforce
Development (2016). The total burden
for all surveys, is estimated to be 1,547
hours. CDC is requesting a one-year
approval. There are no costs to
respondents other than their time.

Prevention Research Centers National
Program Evaluation Reporting System
(PERS)—NEW—National Center for
Chronic Disease Prevention and Health
Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
In 1984, Congress passed Public Law
98–551 directing the Department of
Health and Human Services (DHHS) to
establish Centers for Research and
Development of Health Promotion and
Disease Prevention. Beginning in
1986, the CDC received funding to lead
the Prevention Research Centers (PRC)
Program. Each PRC receives funding
from the CDC to establish its core
infrastructure and functions and
conduct a core research project. Core
research projects reflect each PRC’s area
of expertise and community needs. PRC
core research projects align with the
health disparities and goals outlined in
Healthy People 2020 and Healthy
People 2030. PRCs also have the
opportunity to apply for additional
competitive CDC funding to complete
special interest projects (SIPs) to focus
on a topic of interest or a gap in
scientific evidence.
In 2018, the CDC published program
announcement DP19–001 for the current
PRC Program funding cycle (September
30, 2019—September 29, 2024). Twenty-
six PRCs were selected through a
competitive, external, peer-review
process. The program is now in its
second year of the current five-year
funding cycle. Each PRC is housed
within an accredited school of public
health or an accredited school of
