Evaluation of Breast Cancer Incidence; Notice of Availability of 
Funds

A. Purpose

    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announces the 
availability of fiscal year (FY) 2001 funds for a grant program for an 
Evaluation of Breast Cancer Incidence in DuPage County, Illinois. This 
program addresses the ``Healthy People 2010'' focus areas of Cancer and 
Environmental Health.
    The purpose of the program is to conduct an analysis of data 
routinely collected by health service organizations on breast cancer 
morbidity and mortality in DuPage County, Illinois. Through this 
program, the DuPage County Health Department will be able to determine 
the incidence of breast cancer in the county and to outline a plan to 
address the programmatic and health issues identified.
    No human subjects research will be supported under this program 
announcement.

B. Eligible Applicant

    Assistance will be provided only to the DuPage County Health 
Department in Wheaton, Illinois. No other applications are solicited. 
Eligibility is limited to the DuPage County Health Department because 
Fiscal Year 2001 federal appropriations specifically direct the Centers 
for Disease Control and Prevention to award funds to evaluate the high 
incidence of breast cancer in DuPage County, Illinois.

    Note: Title 2 of the United States Code, Chapter 26, Section 
1611 states that an organization described in section 501(c)(4) of 
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 that engages in lobbying 
activities is not eligible to receive Federal funds constituting an 
award, grant, cooperative agreement, contract, loan, or any other 
form.

C. Availability of Funds

    Approximately $92,000 is available in FY 2001 to fund this award. 
It is expected that the award will begin on or about September 30, 
2001, and will be made for a one year project period. Funding estimates 
may change.
