SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The National Occupational Research Agenda 
(NORA) is a partnership program created to stimulate innovative 
research and improved workplace practices. The national agenda is 
developed and implemented through the NORA sector and cross-sector 
councils. Each council develops and maintains an agenda for its sector 
or cross-sector.
    Background: The National Occupational Research Agenda for Oil and 
Gas Extraction is intended to identify the research, information, and 
actions most urgently needed to prevent occupational injuries. The 
National Occupational Research Agenda for Oil and Gas Extraction 
provides a vehicle for stakeholders to describe the most relevant 
issues, gaps, and safety and health needs for the sector. Each NORA 
research agenda is meant to guide or promote high priority research 
efforts on a national level, conducted by various entities, including: 
Government, higher education, and the private sector.
    The first National Occupational Research Agenda for Oil and Gas 
Extraction was published in 2011 for the second decade of NORA (2006-
2016). The revised agenda was developed considering new information 
about injuries and illnesses, the state of the science, and the 
probability that new information and approaches will make a difference. 
As the steward of the NORA process, NIOSH invites comments on the draft 
National Occupational Research Agenda for Oil and Gas Extraction. 
Comments expressing support or with specific recommendations to improve 
the Agenda are requested. A copy of the draft Agenda is available at 
https://www.regulations.gov (see Docket Number CDC-2018-0065).
