This information collection is approved subject to the changes cited in the CDC memos dated 11/4/99, 11/12/99, and 11/19/99. However, an additional concern remains about data completeness at the third level of analysis, which seeks to determine the relationship between the incidence of bladder cancer and individual THM levels.CDC should pay particular attention to the data completeness of THM levels, and try to ensure that there is adequate data available to support conclusions at this level of analysis. The agency should also explore different options for narrowing the subject pool to strengthen the analysis. For example, the agency might consider conducting an analysis with those subjects for which at least 75 percent of the data is available. In addition, CDC should provide OMB with a copy of the final report and and any interim reports resulting from this study.

Current drinking water treatment practices in the U.S. typically include disinfection to control the pathogenic organisms responsible for waterborne diseases. Chlorine is the most commonly used chemical for drinking water disinfection; however, chlorine reacts with other drinking water contaminants to generate compounds that may cause cancer (e.g., bladder cancer) in people. The long latency period for the development of bladder cancer and the difficulty in reconstructing water consumption and exposure history make it difficult to verify the association between DBPs exposure and bladder cancer occurrence.
