This three-year clearance request includes the data collection in 2011 and 2012 and data planning and testing activities for 2013– 2014 data collection. The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) was conducted periodically between 1970 and 1994, and continuously since 1999 by the National Center for Health Statistics, CDC. Almost 19,000 persons are screened, with about 5,000 participants interviewed and examined annually. Participation in NHANES is completely voluntary and confidential. NHANES programs produce descriptive statistics which measure the health and nutrition status of the general population. Through the use of questionnaires, physical examinations, and laboratory tests, NHANES studies the relationship between diet, nutrition and health in a representative sample of the United States. NHANES monitors the prevalence of chronic conditions and risk factors related to health such as arthritis, asthma, osteoporosis, infectious diseases, diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, obesity, smoking, drug and alcohol use, physical activity, environmental exposures, and PO 00000 Frm 00044 Fmt 4703 Total burden hours Sfmt 4703 875 diet. NHANES data are used to produce national reference data on height, weight, and nutrient levels in the blood. Results from more recent NHANES can be compared to findings reported from previous surveys to monitor changes in the health of the U.S. population over time. NHANES continues to collect genetic material on a national probability sample for future genetic research aimed at understanding disease susceptibility in the U.S. population. NCHS collects personal identification information from survey respondents to facilitate linkage of survey data with health related administrative records. For the 2011–2012 survey, NHANES will add an Asian oversample to the survey design. NHANES data users include the U.S. Congress; the World Health Organization; numerous Federal agencies such as the National Institutes of Health, the Environmental Protection Agency, and the United States Department of Agriculture; private groups such as the American Heart Association; schools of public health; private businesses; individual practitioners; and administrators. NHANES data are used to establish, monitor, and/or evaluate recommended dietary allowances, food fortification policies, environmental exposures, immunization guidelines and health education and disease prevention programs. There is no cost to respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized burden hours are 49,626. E:\FR\FM\29JYN1.SGM 29JYN1

Background and Brief Description

    Office of State, Tribal, Local and Territorial Support is proposing 
to extend the formal, voluntary data collection that assesses the 
capacity of local boards of health to deliver the essential services of 
public health. Electronic data submission will be used when local 
boards of health complete the public health assessment.
    A three-year approval is being sought with the current data 
collection instrument. The data collection instrument has been valuable 
in assessing performance and capacity and identifying areas for 
improvement.
    From 1998-2002, the CDC National Public Health Performance 
Standards Program convened workgroups with the National Association of 
County and City Health Officials (NACCHO), The Association of State and 
Territorial Health Officials (ASTHO), the National Association of Local 
Boards of Health (NALBOH), the American Public Health Association 
(APHA), and the Public Health Foundation (PHF) to develop performance 
standards for public health systems based on the essential services of 
public health. In 2005, CDC reconvened workgroups with these same 
organizations to revise the data collection instruments, in order to 
ensure the standards remain current and improve user friendliness. 
There is no cost to the respondent, other than their time. The 
estimated annualized burden hours are 875.
