Terms of Clearance: Clearance is provided consistent with the understanding that this collection is designed to examine the feasibility of conducting a more robust study. Because this collection is not statistically rigorous enough to characterize the existence, size, or nature of the relationships between health outcomes and exposures, CDC has stated that they will not share underlying data outside of the agency and neither CDC nor its collaborators will disseminate the results of any analyses of the relationships between health outcomes and exposure. Upon submission of the next phase of this study to OMB, CDC will fully characterize the results of each of the methodological objectives described in the current collection.
