before providing survey data to the
Board. Consumer survey data, whether
collected by an outside vendor or by the
Board, will be collected for research
purposes only and any identifying
information on respondents will be
removed before any data is publicly
released.
Abstract: The Federal Reserve uses
the FR 3073 surveys to gather
quantitative and qualitative information
directly from individual consumers or
households (consumer surveys) on
consumer finance topics. This collection
is used to gather quantitative and
qualitative information on current and
emerging community economic issues
from stakeholders (stakeholder surveys).
The Federal Reserve uses this collection
to inform consumer-focused
supervision, research, and policy
analysis; implement statutory
requirements; and facilitate community
development. The surveys in this
collection inform the Federal Reserve’s
work by identifying emerging risks and
providing additional data on the issues
that affect the well-being of consumers
and communities and the function of
the market for financial services. The
frequency and content of the questions
may change depending on economic
conditions, regulatory, or legislative
developments, as well as changes in
technology, business practices, and
other factors affecting consumers,
stakeholders, and communities.
Current Actions: On December 24,
2013, the Federal Reserve published a
notice in the Federal Register (78 FR
77680) requesting public comment for
60 days on the implementation of the
FR 3073. The comment period for this
notice expired on February 24, 2014.
The Federal Reserve did not receive any
comments. The surveys will be
implemented as proposed.

Proposed Project
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) Secure Public Health
Emergency Response Communications
Network (Epi-X) (OMB Control No.
0920–0636, exp. 5/31/2014)—
Revision—Office of Public Health
Preparedness and Response (OPHPR),
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The effectiveness and efficiency of
CDC’s response to any public health
incident depends on information at the
agency’s disposal to characterize and
monitor the incident, make timely
decisions, and take appropriate actions
to prevent or reduce the impact of the
incident.
Available information in anticipation
of, during and following public health
incident responses is often incomplete,
is not easily validated by state and local
health authorities, and is sometimes
conflicting. This lack of reliable
information often creates a high level of
uncertainty with potential negative
impacts on public health response
operations. Secure communications
with CDC’s state, local, territorial, and
tribal public health partners is essential
to resolve conflicting information,
validate incident status, and establish
and maintain situational awareness.
Reliable, secure communications are
essential for the agency to gain and
maintain accurate situational awareness,
make informed decisions, and to
respond in the most appropriate manner
possible in order to minimize the
impact of an incident on the public
health of the United States.
This generic Information Collection
Request (ICR) is being revised to: (1)
Remove verbiage limiting data
collection to activation of the Incident
Management Structure, (2) broaden
categories under which data may be
collected to increase its utilization, and
(3) provide clarity regarding the data
elements.
(Epi-X) is CDC’s Web-based
communication system for securely
communicating in immediate
anticipation of, during and following
public health emergencies that have
multi-jurisdictional impacts and
implications. The incidents of
September 11, 2001 illustrated the need
for an encrypted and secure
communications system that would
permit CDC to communicate urgently
with partners at the state and local
levels, and to notify them ‘‘24 hours a
day, 7 days a week’’, when necessary.
Similarly, Epi-X was specifically
designed to provide public health
decision-makers at the state and local
levels a secure, reliable tool for
communicating sensitive, unusual, or
urgent public health incidents to
neighboring jurisdictions as well as to
CDC.
CDC has recognized a need to expand
the use of Epi-X to collect specific
response related information in
anticipation of, during and following
public health emergencies. Proposed
data collection instruments under this
generic ICR will be designed to ensure
ready access to public health and
disease epidemiology information.
Authorized officials from state and
local health departments affected by the
public health incident will be informed
of this data collection first through an
Epi-X Facilitator, who will work closely
with Epi-X program staff and the Epi-X
Information Collection Request Liaison
to ensure that Epi-X incident specific
information collections are understood.
The survey instruments will contain
specific questions relevant to the
current and ongoing public health
incident and response activities.
Respondents will receive the survey
instrument(s) as an official CDC email,
which is clearly labeled, ‘‘Epi-X
Emergency Public Health Incident
Information Request.’’ The email
message will be accompanied by a link
to an Epi-X Forum discussion Web page.
Respondents can provide their answers
to the survey questions by posting
information within the discussion.
The estimated annual burden to
respondents is 24,400 hours. The total
estimated burden for the generic
information collection is 73,200 hours
for three years.
There are no costs to respondents
except their time.
