Protection of Stratospheric Ozone:
Extension to Deadline for Critical Use
Exemption Applications for 2012
AGENCY: Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Extension to Submittal Date for
Applications. On May 20, 2009, the
Agency published a notice requesting
applications for the Critical Use
Exemption from the phaseout of methyl
bromide for 2012 (see 74 FR 23705).
On July 1, 2009, EPA received a letter
from methyl bromide stakeholders
requesting an extension to the July 20,
2009 deadline for submitting Critical
Use Exemption applications. The letter
requested a deadline of August 24, 2009.
The letter explained that additional
time is needed by the stakeholders to
complete their Critical Use Exemption
applications, citing recent industry
involvement with associated
international meetings and national
regulatory decisions as impeding their
ability to devote adequate time to the
application process.
EPA believes that the requested
extension is reasonable, and is granting
the extension to all applicants. Critical
Use Exemption Applications for 2012
are now due to the Agency on or before
August 24, 2009. A copy of the July 1,
2009 letter to the Agency is available in
the EPA Docket.
DATES: Applications for the 2012
Critical Use Exemption must be
postmarked on or before August 24,
2009.
ADDRESSES: Applications for the methyl
bromide Critical Use Exemption should
be submitted in duplicate (two copies)
by mail to: U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency, Office of Air and
Radiation, Stratospheric Protection
Division, Attention Methyl Bromide
Team, Mail Code 6205J, 1200

Proposed Project
National Healthcare Safety Network
(NHSN) (OMB No. 0920–0666)—
Revision—National Center for
Preparedness, Detection, and Control of
Infectious Diseases (NCPDCID), Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The National Healthcare Safety
Network (NHSN) is a system designed to
accumulate, exchange, and integrate
relevant information and resources
among private and public stakeholders
to support local and national efforts to
protect patients and to promote
healthcare safety. Specifically, the data
is used to determine the magnitude of
various healthcare-associated adverse
events and trends in the rates of these
events among patients and healthcare
workers with similar risks. The data will
be used to detect changes in the
epidemiology of adverse events
resulting from new and current medical
therapies and changing risks.
Healthcare institutions that
participate in NHSN voluntarily report
their data to CDC using a web browser-
4,500 burden hours). These forms are no
longer needed by the NHSN. These
deletions total 4,800 burden hours.
NHSN was first approved by OMB in
2005 and a revision request was
approved by OMB in 2008. The 2008
revision request included modifications
to approved forms, new modules, and
an increase in the number of
respondents. Later in 2008, CDC
requested and received OMB approval
to increase the number of respondents
for the NHSN to 6,000 healthcare
facilities. This change was a result of an
increasing number of State legislatures
requiring reporting of healthcareacquired infections by healthcare
facilities using the NHSN.
Participating institutions must have a
computer capable of supporting an
Internet service provider (ISP) and
access to an ISP. The only other cost to
respondents is their time to complete
the appropriate forms.
OMB No. 0920–0666: National
Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN) is
currently approved for 5,144,844
annualized burden hours. This request
includes a net increase of 27,400 burden
hours (deletion of 2 forms: ¥4,800
burden hours; new Hemovigilance
Module: +32,200 burden hours),
bringing the total estimated annualized
burden hours for the entire information
collection request to 5,172,244 hours.
There are no additional respondents for
this request as they are already part of
the respondent population.
based technology for data entry and data
management. Data are collected by
trained surveillance personnel using
written standardized protocols. This
revision submission to OMB is a request
to add a Hemovigilance module to the
NHSN. This module is a response to a
recommendation from HHS’ Advisory
Committee on Blood Safety and
Availability (ACBSA) to develop a
national system for outcome
surveillance that includes recipients of
blood and blood products. The module
consists of 6 additional forms: (1) The
Hemovigilance Module Annual Survey
(1,000 annualized burden hours); (2) the
Hemovigilance Module Monthly
Reporting Plan (200 annualized burden
hours); (3) Hemovigilance Module
Blood Produce Incident Reporting—
Summary Data (12,000 annualized
burden hours); (4) Hemovigilance
Module Monthly Reporting
Denominators (3,000 annualized burden
hours); (5) Hemovigilance Incident form
(6,000 annualized burden hours); and
(6) Hemovigilance Adverse Reaction
form (10,000 annualized burden hours).
The Hemovigilance Module totals an
estimated 32,200 annualized burden
hours
Also in this submission, CDC is also
requesting to delete two forms currently
approved by OMB: Implementation of
Engineering Controls (currently
approved for 300 burden hours) and the
Laboratory Identified Multi-drug
Resistant Organism (MDRO) Event
Summary Form (currently approved for
