Proposed Project Calibration of the Short Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) in the National Health Interview Survey (NHIS)—New—National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description Section 306 of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act (42 U.S.C. 242k), as amended, authorizes that the Secretary of Health and Human Services (DHHS), acting through NCHS, shall collect statistics on the extent and nature of illness and disability of the population of the United States. Section 520 [42 U.S.C. 290bb–31] of the Public Health Service Act establishes the Center for Mental Health Services (CMHS), Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), and authorizes the CMHS to conduct surveys with respect to mental health. To monitor the prevalence of children and youth with mental health problems, CMHS and the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), through a reimbursable agreement with the NCHS have funded questions on children’s mental health on the National Health Interview Study (NHIS). One component of the NHIS is the short Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (short SDQ), a module that has obtained data on the mental health of children aged 4–17 years since 2001. As part of its mission, CMHS has undertaken the task of improving its methods for providing national estimates related to child mental health, specifically by conducting studies that determine validity and appropriate cutpoints for measuring serious emotional disturbance in children. To ensure that the short SDQ is a valid measure of child mental health, the proposed study calibrates the short SDQ on the NHIS to a standard psychiatric measure. Highly trained clinical interviewers will administer, via telephone, the Child and Adolescent Psychiatric Assessment (CAPA) or the Pre-School Age Psychiatric Assessment (PAPA) to the parents of a sample of children aged 4– 17 years identified in the NHIS as having mental health problems. Children aged 12–17 years will also be interviewed using the Child and Adolescent Psychiatric Assessment (CAPA). Clinical interviewers will also administer these assessments to a suitable control group of parents and children. Approximately 800 adults and 600 children will take part in the study. A 24-month clearance is being sought to conduct this study. Data collected in the follow-up interviews will then be used to calibrate the short SDQ as it is used in the NHIS. Data will not be used to produce national estimates. There is no cost to respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized burden hours are 633.

However, these programs will be reporting data on outbreaks, not their programs or personnel. It is not possible to determine exactly how many outbreaks will occur in the future, nor where they will occur. However, we can estimate, based on existing data that a maximum of 1,400 foodborne illness outbreaks will occur annually. Only programs in the jurisdictions in which these outbreaks occur would report to NVEAIS. Consequently, we have based our respondent burden estimate on the number of outbreaks likely to occur each year. Assuming each outbreak occurs in a different jurisdiction, there will be one respondent per outbreak. Each respondent will respond only once per outbreak investigated. There are two activities for which we need to estimate burden for these programs. The first is entering all requested environmental assessment data into NVEAIS. This will be done once for each outbreak. This will take approximately 120 minutes per outbreak. The second activity requiring a burden estimate is the manager interview that will be conducted at each establishment associated with an outbreak. Most outbreaks are associated with only one establishment; however, some are associated with multiple establishments. We estimate that a maximum average of 4 manager interviews will be conducted per outbreak. Each interview will take about 20 minutes. The total estimated annual burden is 4,667 hours (see Table).

Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork Reduction Act Review

    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) publishes a 
list of information collection requests under review by the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) in compliance with the Paperwork Reduction 
Act (44 U.S.C. chapter 35). To request a copy of these requests, call 
the CDC Reports Clearance Officer at (404) 639-5960 or send an e-mail 
to omb@cdc.gov. Send written comments to CDC Desk Officer, Office of

Proposed Project

    National Voluntary Environmental Assessment Information System 
(NVEAIS)--New--National Center for Environmental Health (NCEH), Centers 
for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    The CDC is requesting OMB approval for a National Voluntary 
Environmental Assessment Information System to collect data from 
foodborne illness outbreak environmental assessments routinely 
conducted by local, state, territorial, or tribal food safety programs 
during outbreak investigations. Environmental assessment data are not 
currently collected at the national level. The data reported through 
this information system will provide timely data on the causes of 
outbreaks, including environmental factors associated with outbreaks, 
and are essential to environmental public health regulators' efforts to 
respond more effectively to outbreaks and prevent future, similar 
outbreaks.
    The information system was developed by the Environmental Health 
Specialists Network (EHS-Net), a collaborative project of federal and 
state public health agencies. The EHS-Net has developed a standardized 
instrument for reporting data relevant to foodborne illness outbreak 
environmental assessments.
    State, local, tribal, and territorial food safety programs are the 
respondents for this data collection. Although it is not possible to 
determine how many programs will choose to participate, as NVEAIS is 
voluntary, the maximum

[[Page 74055]]

potential number of program respondents is approximately 3,000.
    However, these programs will be reporting data on outbreaks, not 
their programs or personnel. It is not possible to determine exactly 
how many outbreaks will occur in the future, nor where they will occur. 
However, we can estimate, based on existing data that a maximum of 
1,400 foodborne illness outbreaks will occur annually. Only programs in 
the jurisdictions in which these outbreaks occur would report to 
NVEAIS. Consequently, we have based our respondent burden estimate on 
the number of outbreaks likely to occur each year. Assuming each 
outbreak occurs in a different jurisdiction, there will be one 
respondent per outbreak. Each respondent will respond only once per 
outbreak investigated.
    There are two activities for which we need to estimate burden for 
these programs. The first is entering all requested environmental 
assessment data into NVEAIS. This will be done once for each outbreak. 
This will take approximately 120 minutes per outbreak.
    The second activity requiring a burden estimate is the manager 
interview that will be conducted at each establishment associated with 
an outbreak. Most outbreaks are associated with only one establishment; 
however, some are associated with multiple establishments. We estimate 
that a maximum average of 4 manager interviews will be conducted per 
outbreak. Each interview will take about 20 minutes.
    The total estimated annual burden is 4,667 hours (see Table). There 
is no cost to the respondents other than their time.
