In compliance with the requirement
of Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 for
opportunity for public comment on
proposed data collection projects, the
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) will publish periodic
summaries of proposed projects. To
request more information on the
proposed projects or to obtain a copy of
the data collection plans and

Proposed Project
All-Hazards Public Health Emergency
Preparedness and Response Generic
Data Collection—New—Coordinating
Office for Terrorism Preparedness and
Emergency Response (COTPER), Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Data from agencies and individuals
are needed to assist CDC in responding
to and planning for domestic and
international all-hazards public health
emergencies. According to the glossary
from the National Response Framework
Resource Center, ‘‘all-hazards’’ is
defined as ‘‘describing an incident,
natural or manmade, that warrants
action to protect life, property,
environment, and public health or
safety, and to minimize disruptions of
government, social, or economic
activities.’’ This generic IC requests the
authority to collect a wide array of data
from traditional and non-traditional
public health sources to assist in this
effort. This generic IC will enable CDC
to collect data during public health
emergencies (as the response is taking
place) and after public health
emergencies (as the recovery is taking
place) to aid response and recovery
efforts and to answer pre-determined
research questions. These data may be
used to inform our preparedness for
subsequent emergencies that may
potentially occur and also inform
decisions made by CDC Director.
All-hazards public health emergencies
are those events that are formally
declared emergencies by Federal, State
or local jurisdictions. Declarations can
be made by the Secretary of the
Department of Health and Human
Services (DHHS) under Section 319 of
the Public Health Service Act and at the
state or local levels by the Governor,
state public health officer, city or county
council or mayor and the local public
health officer respectively. During and
after these emergencies, assistance may
be needed to supplement State and local
efforts and capabilities to save lives and
to protect property and public health
and safety, or to lessen or avert the
threat of a catastrophe. Also, CDC may
have to assist the State and local, tribal,
and territorial levels of government with
critical data collection to support
immediate data needs for situational
awareness. Situational Awareness has
been defined as ‘‘the perception of
elements in the environment within a
volume of time and space, the
comprehension of their meaning, and
the projection of their status in the near
future.’’
A three-year OMB approval is
requested to allow CDC to collect data
during and after emergencies. Data
collected under this generic IC will use
a variety of data collection methods.
Some of the methods include but are not
limited to: Personal interviews,
telephone interviews, focus groups,
institutional record reviews, medical
record reviews, and paper or Internet
questionnaires and other secure
electronic data exchange. Each proposed
data collection submitted under this
generic IC will provide information
pertaining to that particular public
health emergency. Respondents will be
advised of the nature of the activity, the
length of time required for participation
and that their participation is voluntary.
There are no costs to respondents
except their time.

(Capacity-Building) project. The
supplemental funds, coupled with the
TA providers’ expertise, will enable
Open Doors Safety Capacity-Building
project grantees to receive more training
and site-specific consultation, so that
they may build program capacity. The
awards will also support State-level
collaboration between domestic
violence organizations and child welfare
agencies. These combined efforts will
strengthen the ability of domestic
violence programs and their partners to
better serve survivors who have diverse
backgrounds, experiences, and abilities.
