maintaining the record for a total of
112,000 hours. The total operating and
maintenance cost associated with the
waiver application is estimated at
$66,200. The cost consists of specimen
collection for the clinical study
(estimated $23,500); laboratory supplies,
reference testing and study oversight
(estimated $26,700); shipping and office
supplies (estimated $6,000); and
educational materials, including quick
reference instructions (estimated
$10,000). This guidance also refers to
previously approved collections of
information found in FDA regulations.
The collections of information in 21
CFR part 801 and 21 CFR 809.10 have
been approved under OMB control
number 0910–0485 and the collections
of information in 21 CFR part 803 have
6207
been approved under OMB control
number 0910–0437.
In the Federal Register of October 20,
2009 (74 FR 53750), FDA published a
60-day notice requesting public
comment on the proposed collection of
information. No comments were
received.
FDA estimates the burden of this

the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995,
for opportunity for public comment on

projects to be submitted to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and approval.

Type of Information Collection Request:
Extension of currently approved
collection [OMB No. 0925–0612,
expiration date 07/31/2010], Form
Number: NA; Need and Use of
Information Collection: The National
Library of Medicine (NLM) proposes the
continuation of a voluntary collection of
data to assist in the reunification of
family members and loved ones who are
separated during a disaster.
Reunification is important to both the
VerDate Nov<24>2008

emotional well-being of people injured
during a disaster and to their medical
care. Family members often provide
important health information to care
providers who are treating the injured
(e.g., providing medical history or
information about allergies) and they
may provide longer-term care for those
released from emergency care. NLM
proposes this data collection as part of
its mission to develop and coordinate
communication technologies to improve
the delivery of health services. The data
collection is authorized pursuant to
sections 301, 307, 465 and 478A of the
Public Health Service Act [42 U.S.C.
241, 242l, 286 and 286d]. NLM is a
member of the Bethesda Hospitals’
Emergency Preparedness Partnership
(BHEPP), which was established in 2004
to improve community disaster
preparedness and response among
hospitals in Bethesda, Maryland that
would likely be called upon to absorb
mass casualties in a major disaster in
the National Capital Region. BHEPP
hospitals include the National Naval
Medical Center (NNMC), the National
Institutes of Health Clinical Center (NIH
CC), and Suburban Hospital/Johns
Hopkins Medicine. NLM, with its
expertise in communications,
information management, and medical
informatics joined BHEPP to coordinate
the R&D program, one element of which
is development of a lost person finder
to assist in family reunification after a
disaster. NLM’s Lost People Finder
System would collect information, on a
voluntary basis, about people who are
missing and who are found (recovered)

during a disaster. Information on
recovered individuals would be
gathered voluntarily from medical and
relief personnel who either use a
specialized application developed by
NLM for the iPhone or submit
information to NLM by e-mail via
computer or cell phone. The iPhone
application enables submission of
photographs and descriptive
information about recovered victims in
a structured format, e.g., name (if
available), age category, gender, general
status (healthy, injured), location.
Information about missing persons
would be submitted by members of the
public who are seeking family members,
friends, and other loved ones. An
interactive Web-based system offers the
public a tool for searching for people
who have been found (e.g., recovered by
medical staff and other relief workers)
and for voluntarily posting information
about people who are still missing. In
addition, the system would collect
information on a regular basis from
other publicly available systems for that
are used for reunification during a
disaster for information (e.g., the Google
Person Finder system that was deployed
during the 2010 earthquakes in Haiti). In
addition, information submitted directly
to NLM’s Lost People Finder System
would be transferred to other systems
that are endorsed by U.S. government
agencies to ensure that users of such
systems can search the complete set of
available information for their family
members and loved ones and to ensure
that use of the NLM system in no way
interrupts or distracts from the
E:\FR\FM\08FEN1.SGM

6208
Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 25 / Monday, February 8, 2010 / Notices
operation or use of other person finder
systems. NLM would also use the data
to evaluate the functioning and utility of
the lost person finder and guide future
enhancements to the system. Frequency
of Response: The NLM Lost People
Finder would be activated only during
disasters or emergencies in which U.S.
government agencies are called to
contribute to relief efforts. It would
operate until cessation of relief efforts.
During this period of time, information
on found persons would be submitted
by first-responders, medical, and other
relief personnel on an ad-hoc basis,
possibly several times per day.
Information about missing persons
would be submitted voluntarily by
members of the public (i.e., those who
are seeking family members friends, and
other loved ones) on hoc basis, once or
twice during the disaster. Affected
Public: Individuals or households. Type
of Respondents: Emergency Care FirstResponders, Physicians, and Other
Health Care Providers who have found
(recovered) people, and family members
seeking a missing person. Estimate of
burden: The annual reporting burden is
as follows: The estimated burden
consists of the burden to emergency
responders (care providers, relief
workers) of voluntarily entering data
into the system about found people and
of family members voluntarily entering
data to list a missing person and/or
search for possible matches. The burden
may vary significantly from one disaster
to another, depending upon the number
of people affected. Using the 2010
earthquake in Haiti as a model, we
estimate that some 500 emergency
responders might use the system during
the course of the relief effort and that
each might submit information on 100
people. Submission of information,
Estimated
number of
respondents
Types of respondents
especially through the iPhone
application, is very fast and is estimated
to average not more than 5 minutes per
entry. The number of family members
entering information about a missing
person could be much higher. Based on
use of the Google Person Finder system
during the Haiti earthquake (which
contained information on 50,000 people
after two weeks of operation), we
estimate that some 50,000 family
members might use the system twice
during a disaster. Data entry would
average no more than 5 minutes. Based
on these estimates, the total hour
burden is calculated to be 12,000 hours.
All use of the system is voluntary.
Improved estimates of the burden, in
particular the number of respondents
and frequency of response, could be
provided after the initial use of the
system in Haiti.

Request for Comments: Written
comments and/or suggestions from the
public and affected agencies should
address one or more of the following
points: (1) Evaluate whether the
proposed collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of
the function of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility; (2) Evaluate the
accuracy of the agency’s estimate of the
burden of the proposed collection of
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (4) Minimize the burden
of the collection of information on those
who are to respond, including the use
of appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.
