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

comments to Maryam I. Daneshvar, CDC
Acting Reports Clearance Officer, 1600
Clifton Road, MS D–74, Atlanta, GA
30333 or send an e-mail to
omb@cdc.gov.
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
of the functions of the agency, including
whether the information shall have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including through the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology. Written comments should
be received within 60 days of this
notice.
Proposed Project
Automated Management Information
System (MIS) for Diabetes Control
Programs (OMB No. 0920–0479,
expiration date 5/31/2010)—Revision—
National Center for Chronic Disease
Prevention and Health Promotion
(NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Diabetes is the seventh leading cause
of death in the United States,
contributing to more than 233,619
deaths each year. An estimated 23.6
million people in the United States have
diabetes: 17.9 million people who have
been diagnosed with diabetes and 5.7
million people have undiagnosed
diabetes. To reduce the burden of this
disease, the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC) established the
national Diabetes Control Program,
authorized under sections 301 and
317(k) of the Public Health Service Act
[42 U.S.C. sections 241 and 247b(k)].
This program provides funding to health
departments in States and territories to
develop, implement, and evaluate
population-based Diabetes Prevention
and Control Programs (DPCPs). These
programs provide support for health
departments to design, implement and
evaluate diabetes prevention and
control strategies that improve access to
and quality of care for all, including
communities most impacted by the
burden of diabetes (e.g., racial/ethnic
minority populations, the elderly, rural
dwellers and the economically
disadvantaged).
CDC currently collects information
from DCPCs through a Web-based
Management Information System (MIS).
The information is used to monitor
compliance with cooperative agreement
requirements, evaluate progress in
achieving program-specific goals, and
identify needs for training and technical
assistance. The MIS is a Web-based,
password access-protected repository
and technical reporting system that
supports the collection of accurate,
uniform, and timely information about
DCPCs. The MIS has standardized the
format and the content of diabetes data
reported from the DPCPs and provides
an electronic means for efficient
collection and transmission of
information to CDC.
The information collected through the
MIS allows CDC to monitor, evaluate,
and compare individual programs; to
assess and report aggregate information
regarding the overall effectiveness of the
DPCP program; and to rapidly respond
to external inquiries about specific
diabetes control activities. The MIS also
supports DDT’s broader mission of
reducing the burden of diabetes by
enabling DDT staff to more effectively
identify the strengths and weaknesses of
individual DPCPs and to disseminate
information related to successful public
health interventions.
Approval to collect information for
three additional years will be requested.
Respondents will be 53 DCPCs in States,
the District of Columbia, the Virgin
Islands, and Puerto Rico. The
information collection will not include
the Pacific Islands jurisdictions that
were previously funded through the
national Diabetes Control Program and
will be funded through a separate
mechanism in the future.
All information will be collected
electronically. Action Plan items will be
reported twice per year and other items
will be reported once per year. During
the next approval period, selected data
elements will be revised to provide a
common set of progress and
performance indicators across a number
of CDC’s chronic disease prevention and
control programs, as outlined in the new
funding opportunity announcement.
Burden to respondents will be reduced
due to improved organization of the
MIS, and increased use of existing data
resources. There are no costs to
respondents other than their time.

revision entails the discontinuation of
the two Active Bacterial Surveillance
(ABCs) forms which now collect data
under a separate OMB control number,
0920–0802. Case report forms from state
and territorial health departments
enable CDC to collect demographic,
clinical, and laboratory characteristics
of cases of these diseases.
The purpose of the proposed study is
to direct epidemiologic investigations,
identify and monitor trends in
reemerging infectious diseases or
emerging modes of transmission, to
search for possible causes or sources of
the diseases, and develop guidelines for
prevention and treatment. The data
collected will also be used to
recommend target areas most in need of
vaccinations for selected diseases and to
determine development of drug
resistance. Because of the distinct
nature of each of the diseases, the
number of cases reported annually is
different for each. There is no cost to
respondents other than their time.
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
of the functions of the agency, including
whether the information shall have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
