    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has submitted a new information collection request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to pilot the Violence Against Children and Youth Survey (VACS) in the United States. This survey aims to gather data on physical, sexual, and emotional violence against youth, starting with samples from Baltimore and rural Garrett County, Maryland. The survey will help understand the extent of violence against children and identify risk and protective factors to inform prevention strategies. The CDC seeks public comments on this proposed project, which is expected to take three years with an annual burden estimate of 800 hours.

    Simple Explanation

    The CDC wants to ask kids and teens in certain places about their experiences with bad things like hitting or bullying, to help make things safer for children. They want to hear what people think before they start, but there are some questions about how they'll do it and if it's fair for everyone.

    The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is considering a license amendment for the Nuclear Ship Savannah (NSS) in Baltimore, Maryland. This amendment would allow for the completion of decommissioning activities under the License Termination Plan (LTP), which MARAD will implement if the NRC approves it. After the decommissioning, a request can be made to terminate NSS's license so that the ship can be preserved, dismantled, or turned into a reef. The NRC's environmental assessment found no significant impact, which means a more detailed environmental impact statement isn't needed.

    Simple Explanation

    The plan is to safely finish shutting down a special ship that used to have a nuclear engine, and they checked to make sure it won't hurt the environment. This means the ship can be taken apart or turned into a cool underwater place for fish.

    The Coast Guard has put a temporary safety zone in place on the Patapsco River in Baltimore, Maryland, due to a planned fireworks display for New Year's Eve. This measure is to protect people from potential dangers like accidental fires and dangerous debris during the event. The safety zone will be active from 11:55 p.m. on December 31, 2024, to 12:15 a.m. on January 1, 2025, covering 300 feet around the fireworks barge. Entry is only allowed with permission from the Coast Guard.

    Simple Explanation

    The Coast Guard is making a special area on the Patapsco River where boats and people can't go during the New Year's Eve fireworks, to make sure everyone stays safe. This area is like an invisible safety bubble around the fireworks boat.
