Proposed Project Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Secure Communications Network (Epi–X) (OMB No. 0929–0636 exp. 12/31/ 2010)—Revision—Office of Public Health Preparedness and Response (OPHPR), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description The classification of this Information Collection (IC) is a revision of the StateBased Evaluation of the Alert Notification Component of CDC’s Secure Communication Network (Epi– X) OMB Control No. 0920–0636. This IC is being revised to improve the effectiveness of CDC communications with its public health partners during public health incident responses. These partners include public health officials and agencies at the State and local level. From 2005–2009, CDC conducted incident specific, public health emergency response operations on average of four public health incidents a year with an average emergency response length of 48 days for each incident. The effectiveness and efficiency of CDC’s response to any public health incident depends on information at the agency’s disposal to characterize and monitor the incident, make timely decisions, and take appropriate actions to prevent or reduce the impact of the incident. Available information during many public health incident responses is often incomplete, is not easily validated by State and local health authorities, and is sometimes conflicting. This lack of reliable information often creates a high level of uncertainty with potential negative impacts on public health response operations. Secure communications with CDC’s State and local public health partners is essential to de-conflict information, validate incident status, and establish and maintain accurate situation awareness. Reliable, secure communications are essential for the agency to make informed decisions, and to respond in the most appropriate manner possible in order to minimize the impact of an incident on the public health of the United States. Epi–X is CDC’s Web-based communication system for securely communicating during public health emergencies that have multijurisdictional impact and implications. Epi–X was specifically designed to provide public health decision-makers at the State and local levels a secure, reliable tool for communicating information about sensitive, unusual, or urgent public health incidents to neighboring jurisdictions as well as to CDC. The system was also designed to generate a request for epidemiologic assistance (Epi-Aid) from CDC using a secure, paperless environment. Epi–X designers have developed functionalities that permit targeting of critical outbreak information to specific public health authorities who can act quickly to prevent the spread of diseases and other emergencies in multijurisdictional settings, such as those that could occur during an influenza pandemic, infection of food and water resources, and natural disasters. CDC has recognized a need to expand the use of Epi–X to collect specific response related information during public health emergencies. Authorized Officials from State and local health departments impacted by the public health incident will be surveyed only by Epi–X. Respondents will be informed of this data collection first through an Epi– X Facilitator, who will work closely with Epi–X program staff to ensure that Epi–X incident specific IC is understood. The survey instruments will contain specific questions relevant to the current and ongoing public health incident and response activities. The Web-based tool for data collection under Epi–X already is established for the current IC and has been in use since 2003. CDC will adapt it as needed to accommodate the data collection instruments. Respondents will receive the survey instrument as an official CDC e-mail, which is clearly labeled, ‘‘Epi–X Emergency Public Health Incident Information Request’’ The e-mail message will be accompanied by a link to an Epi–X Forum discussion Web page. Respondents can provide their answers to the survey questions by posting information within the discussion. There are no costs to respondents except their time.

Proposed Project Improving the Quality and Delivery of CDC’s Heart Disease and Stroke Prevention Programs—New—Division for Heart Disease and Stroke Prevention (DHDSP), National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description Heart disease and stroke are among the most widespread and costly causes of death and disability in the U.S., but are also among the most preventable health problems. In 2006, CDC created the Division of Heart Disease and Stroke Prevention (DHDSP) to provide national leadership for efforts to reduce the burden of disease, disability, and death from heart disease and stroke. Many heart disease and stroke prevention and control activities are conducted through DHDSP-funded heart disease and stroke prevention programs. The DHDSP’s key partners include state and local health departments, public health organizations, community organizations, nonprofit organizations, and professional organizations. The DHDSP supports partners by conducting trainings, providing scientific guidance and technical assistance, and producing scientific information and supporting tools. For example, the DHDSP provides training to States on how to implement and evaluate their programs and provides guidance on how to best apply evidence-based practices. In addition, the DHDSP translates its scientific studies into informational products, such as on-line reports and trend data. The DHDSP requests OMB approval of a generic clearance to support a variety of information collections needed to assess the relevance, quality and impact of DHDSP trainings, technical assistance, and products. The generic clearance will provide a common framework for many of DHDSP’s planning and evaluation activities and enhance DHDSP’s ability to coordinate information collection with product releases, professional conferences, and other events. The information to be collected will allow the DHDSP to identify new programmatic opportunities and respond quickly to partners’ concerns in a timely manner. Whenever feasible, DHDSP will collect information electronically to reduce burden. Information may also be collected through in-person or telephone interviews or focus groups when webbased surveys are impractical or when in-depth responses are required. Respondents will be DHDSP’s partners in State and local government as well as partner organizations in the private sector. The DHDSP estimates that it will collect information each year from approximately 506 respondents through web-based surveys, approximately 406 respondents through interviews, and approximately 64 respondents through focus groups. No one type of respondent will be asked to participate in more than two surveys, interviews, or focus groups annually. The length of online surveys will be limited to 30 minutes and in-person interviews and focus groups limited to one hour or less. CDC requests OMB approval of the generic clearance for three years. The initial generic information collection request describes plans to conduct two specific surveys. An additional information collection request, outlining purpose, respondents and methodology, will be submitted to OMB for each subsequent information collection activity. The information to be collected will be used to determine whether DHDSP activities and products are reaching the intended audiences, whether they are deemed to be useful by those audiences, and whether DHDSP efforts improve public health practice. There are no costs to respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized burden hours are 723.

Revision--Office of Public Health Preparedness and Response (OPHPR), 
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    The classification of this Information Collection (IC) is a 
revision of the State-Based Evaluation of the Alert Notification 
Component of CDC's Secure Communication Network (Epi-X) OMB Control No. 
0920-0636.
    This IC is being revised to improve the effectiveness of CDC 
communications with its public health partners during public health 
incident responses. These partners include public health officials and 
agencies at the State and local level.
    From 2005-2009, CDC conducted incident specific, public health

is often incomplete, is not easily validated by State and local health 
authorities, and is sometimes conflicting. This lack of reliable 
information often creates a high level of uncertainty with potential 
negative impacts on public health response operations.
    Secure communications with CDC's State and local public health 
partners is essential to de-conflict information, validate incident 
status, and establish and maintain accurate situation awareness. 
Reliable, secure communications are essential for the agency to make 
informed decisions, and to respond in the most appropriate manner 
possible in order to minimize the impact of an incident on the public 
health of the United States.
    Epi-X is CDC's Web-based communication system for securely 
communicating during public health emergencies that have multi-
jurisdictional impact and implications. Epi-X was specifically designed 
to provide public health decision-makers at the State and local levels
