Submission for OMB Review; 30-Day Comment Request; Cardiovascular 
Health and Needs Assessment in Washington, DC--Development of a 
Community-Based Behavioral Weight Loss Intervention

SUMMARY: Under the provisions of Section 3507(a)(1)(D) of the Paperwork 
Reduction Act of 1995, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has 
submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request for 
review and approval of the information collection listed below. This 
proposed information collection was previously published in the Federal 
Register on January 2, 2014, Volume 79, Issue Number 1, pages 41-42 and 
allowed 60-days for public comment. Public comments were received 
during the 60-day period. The purpose of this notice is to allow an 
additional 30 days for public comment. The National Heart, Lung and 
Blood Institute (NHLBI), National Institutes of Health, may not conduct 
or sponsor, and the respondent is not required to respond to, an 
information collection that has been extended, revised, or implemented 
on or after October 1, 1995, unless it displays a currently valid OMB 
control number.
    Direct Comments to OMB: Written comments and/or suggestions 
regarding the item(s) contained in this notice, especially regarding 
the estimated public burden and associated response time, should be 
directed to the: Office of Management and Budget, Office of Regulatory 
Affairs, [email protected] or by fax to 202-395-6974, 
Attention: NIH Desk Officer.
    Comment Due Date: Comments regarding this information collection 
are best assured of having their full effect if received within 30-days 
of the date of this publication.

collection plans and instruments or request more information on the 
proposed project contact either: Eric Shropshire, Outreach & Research 
Coordinator, or Dr. Tiffany Powell-Wiley, Assistant Clinical 
Investigator, CPB, DIR, NHLBI, NIH, 10 Center Drive, Building 10-CRC,

    Proposed Collection: Cardiovascular Health and Needs Assessment in 
Washington, DC--Development of a Community-Based Behavioral Weight Loss 
Intervention, New, National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI), 
National Institutes of Health (NIH).
    Need and Use of Information Collection: The purpose and use of the 
information collection for this project is to determine the prevalence 
of ideal, intermediate, and poor cardiovascular health factors based on 
American Heart Association (AHA)-defined goals within a church-based 
population in wards 5, 7, and 8 in Washington, DC. The information 
collected will also evaluate data from handheld devices, such as 
wearable physical activity monitors or digital cameras, to objectively 
measure physical activity and dietary intake from selected community 
members. This protocol will then identify technology that may be 
incorporated into future interventions. In addition, the collected 
information used will be examined for methods of referral for treatment 
for unrecognized hypertension, diabetes, and hypercholesterolemia in 
the community-based population. Social determinants of obesity, 
particularly environmental, cultural, and psychosocial factors that 
might help or hinder weight loss, will be evaluated in the population. 
This information from the screening and needs assessment will establish 
a community-based participatory research (CBPR) partnership for the 
future design and implementation of a church-based, behavioral weight 
loss intervention.
    OMB approval is requested for 2 years. There are no costs to 
respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized 
burden hours are 2,380.
