NCHS will collaborate with the Perchlorate Interagency Working Group to identify and prioritize analytes and covariates important for examining the potential health implications related to perchlorate exposure. NCHS should continue to inform OMB on the development of specific criteria for both listing and de-listing chemical analytes from the NHANES portfolio. With respect to conducting any pilot or nonresponse studies, OMB should be provided with a formal request that describes the specific study design, need for the information, and response burden. OMB will respond within three weeks indicating approval, disapproval, or passback exchanges seeking further information. No pilot or nonresponse studies should be conducted without receipt of approval from OMB.

Abstract:
The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) is a continuous nationally representative sample of the civilian, non-institutionalized U.S. population. The survey is unique in that it contains interview, laboratory and physical examination segments. The examination component is conducted in mobile examination centers that travel to fifteen survey locations each year. NHANES data have been the cornerstone for numerous national health and nutrition policy and surveillance activities.
