Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 20 / Wednesday, January 31, 2007 / Notices
Technology (ASRT), Office of the
Secretary, Department of Health and
Human Services (HHS) request that the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) extend its existing approval
under Clearance No. 0990–0220 for HHS
to undertake voluntary surveys of HHS’
partners in academia and industry (e.g.,
Principal Investigators, business offices,
and vendors) through January 31, 2010.
To comply with Executive Order 12862,
Setting Customer Service Standards (the
EO), HHS again plans to systematically
survey its grant recipients and
contractors to compile their evaluations
of the Department’s grants and
procurement processes, and to improve
the way we conduct business with
them.
These voluntary surveys will continue
to be a collaborative effort, with OAMP
and OG providing leadership, oversight,
and a methodology; and the HHS
Operating Divisions (OPDIVs)
conducting the surveys for their own
operations. Each OPDIV will conduct
web-based surveys of its partners to
obtain feedback for improving business
processes. The grant recipients and
contractors to be surveyed are
sufficiently familiar with the
Department and its OPDIVs to make this
feedback extremely useful. These
surveys will give OAMP, OG, and each
of the OPDIVs an opportunity to
understand and evaluate grant and
procurement quality standards, as well
as to incorporate best industry or public
sector standards into OPDIV practices.
Frequency: Reporting every 3 years.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit, Not-for-profit institutions,
Federal Government.
Annual Number of Respondents:
2133.
Total Annual Responses: 2133.
Average Burden per Response: 10.75
minutes.
Total Annual Hours: 382.

Department of Health and Human
Services (45 FR 67772–76, dated
October 14, 1980, and corrected at 45 FR
69296, October 20, 1980, as amended
most recently at 70 FR 72842–72843,
dated December 7, 2005), the Division
for Heart Disease and Stroke Prevention,
National Center for Chronic Disease
Prevention and Health Promotion,
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention was established. This
Division plans, directs, and coordinates
programs to reduce morbidity, risk
factors, costs, disability, mortality, and
disparities associated with heart
disease, stroke, and other cardiovascular
disease outcomes. Under this Division,
formative research was conducted to
identify effective interventions and
promising practices for preventing heart
disease and stroke at the work site. In
2005, this research resulted in the
development of a Successful Business
Strategies to Prevent Heart Disease and
Stroke Toolkit. The toolkit provides
state programs with suggestions about
which health benefits, services, and
interventions can improve employee
cardiovascular health, prevent heart
disease and stroke, and reduce related
costs. The second phase of this project
focuses on disseminating and evaluating
the Successful Business Strategies to
Prevent Heart Disease and Stroke
Toolkit.
As part of the Toolkit evaluation, the
CDC has employed contractor support to
design and conduct a Web-based survey
of State Health Departments to gather
information on their experiences with
the Toolkit. The contractor will collect
and analyze all data from this survey.
The CDC has also contracted to make
revisions to the Toolkit based on results
of this survey, ongoing feedback from
the States, and feedback from employers
through interviews.
There are no costs to respondents
except their time to complete the
survey.
