National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH).
    Times and Dates: 8:30 a.m.-5:30 p.m., June 27, 2002. 8 a.m.--5

    Purpose: The Safety and Occupational Health Study Section will 
review, discuss, and evaluate grant application(s) received in 
response to the Institute's standard grants review and funding 
cycles pertaining to research issues in occupational safety and 
health, and allied areas. It is the intent of the NIOSH to support 
broad-based research endeavors in keeping with the Institute's 
program goals. This will lead to improved understanding and 
appreciation for the magnitude of the aggregate health burden 
associated with occupational injuries and illnesses, as well as to 
support more focused research projects, which will lead to 
improvements in the delivery of occupational safety and health 
services and the prevention of work-related injury and illness. It 
is anticipated that research funded will promote these program 
goals.
    Matters to be Discussed: The meeting will convene in open 
session from 8:30-9:30 a.m. on June 27, 2002, to address matters 
related to the conduct of Study Section business. The remainder of 
the meeting will proceed in closed session. The purpose of the 
closed sessions is for the SOHSS to consider safety and occupational 
health-related grant applications. These portions of the meeting 
will be closed to the public in accordance with provisions set forth 
in section 552b(c)(4) and (6) title 5 U.S.C., and the Determination 
of the Acting Director, Management Analysis and Services Office, 
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, pursuant to Pub. L. 92-
463.
    Agenda items are subject to change as priorities dictate.
