This document contains data field definitions and elements to pilot states submitting biomonitoring data to the Tracking Network.
| Characteristic | Description | 
| Data Source | State and Local Data Systems | 
| Purpose | This dataset will be used to display measures related to biomonitoring data at the state and sub-state levels on the national public portal. | 
| Geographic Level | The smallest geographic unit to be represented in this data set is the city. | 
| Restrictions 
 | This is a restricted access data set. Data submitted through this pilot will not be formally presented on the public portal but will be used to pilot/test how these data could be displayed when data is finally submitted through a regular data call for the Tracking Network.

		CDC
		estimates the average public reporting burden for this collection
		of information as 40 hours per response, including the time for
		reviewing instructions, searching existing data/information
		sources, gathering and maintaining the data/information needed, and
		completing and reviewing the collection of information. An agency
		may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond
		to a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid
		OMB control number. Send comments regarding this burden estimate or
		any other aspect of this collection of information, including
		suggestions for reducing this burden to CDC/ATSDR Information
