(CDC73.126)--OMB No. 0920-0128--Extension--National Center for HIV/
AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention (NCHHSTP), Coordinating 
Center for Infectious Diseases (CCID), Centers for Disease Control and 
Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    CDC proposes to continue data collection for congenital syphilis 
case investigations under the ``Congenital Syphilis (CS) Case 
Investigation and Report Form'' (CDC73.126, REV 11-98); this form is 
currently approved under OMB No. 0920-0128, and is due to expire on 9/
30/2006. This request is for a 3-year extension of OMB approval.
    Reducing congenital syphilis is a national objective in the DHHS 
Report entitled Healthy People 2010 (Vol. I and II). Objective 25-9 of 
this document states the goal: ``Reduce congenital syphilis to 1 new 
case per 100,000 live births''. In order to meet this national 
objective, an effective surveillance system for congenital syphilis 
must be continued to monitor current levels of disease and progress 
towards the year 2010 objective. This data will also be used to develop 
intervention strategies and to evaluate ongoing control efforts.
    Respondent burden is approximately 15 minutes per reported case. 
The estimated annual number of cases expected to be reported using the 
current case definition is 500 or less. Therefore, the total number of 
hours for congenital syphilis reporting required will be approximately 
130 hours per year. There are no costs to the respondents other than 
their time.
