Background and Brief Description
The PHHS Block Grant program was
established to provide awardees with a
source of flexible funding for health
promotion and disease prevention
programs. Currently, 61 awardees (50
States, the District of Columbia, two
American Indian Tribes, and eight U.S.
territories) receive block grants to
address locally-defined public health
needs in innovative ways. Block Grants
allow awardees to prioritize the use of
funds and to fill funding gaps in
programs that deal with the leading
causes of death and disability. Block

Proposed Data Collections Submitted
for Public Comment and
Recommendations
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
request more information on the
proposed projects or to obtain a copy of
the data collection plans and
instruments, call 404–639–5960 or send
comments to Carol Walker, Acting
Reports Clearance Officer, 1600 Clifton
Road, MS–D74, 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

Grant funding also provides awardees
with the ability to respond rapidly to
emerging health issues, including
outbreaks of diseases or pathogens. The
PHHS Block Grant program is
authorized by sections 1901–1907 of the
Public Health Service Act.
As specified in the authorizing
legislation, CDC currently collects
information from Block Grant awardees
to monitor their objectives and activities
(Preventive Health and Health Services
Block Grant, OMB No. 0920–0106, exp.
8/31/2011). Each awardee is required to
submit an annual application for
funding (Work Plan) that describes its
objectives and the populations to be
addressed, and an Annual Report that
describes activities and progress.
Information is submitted electronically
through the Web-based Block Grant
Information Management System
(BGMIS). The BGMIS is designed to
support Block Grant requirements
specified in the program’s authorizing
legislation, such as adherence to the
Healthy People (HP) framework. The
current version of the BGMIS associates
each awardee-defined activity with a
specific HP National Objective, and
identifies the location where funds are
applied. Information items are broken
down into discrete fields. Each objective
is defined in SMART format (Specific,
Measurable, Achievable, Realistic and
Time-based), and includes a specified
start date and end date.
CDC requests OMB approval to
continue the information collection,
without changes, for two years (through
8/31/2013). During this time, the CDC
Block Grant program office will
complete an internal planning process
and replace the current Healthy People
2010 objectives with Healthy People
2020 objectives. CDC plans to submit a
Revision request when decisions about
the new awardee performance measures
and updated BGMIS data elements are
finalized.
During the period of this two-year
Extension request, CDC will continue to
use the BGMIS, without changes, to
monitor awardee progress, identify
activities and personnel supported with
Block Grant funding, conduct
compliance reviews of Block Grant
awardees, and promote the use of
evidence-based guidelines and
interventions. There will be no changes
to the number of respondents or the
BGMIS data elements. However, since
awardees can prepare upcoming
submissions by modifying information
already entered into the system, the
estimated annual burden per respondent
will decrease from 55 hours to 35 hours
(a reduction of 5 hours per response for
the Work Plan, and 15 hours per

total estimated annualized reduction in
burden is 1,200 hours. There are no
costs to respondents other than their
time.

requesting information on the following:
(1) Relevant reports, publications, and
case information of scientific and
medical findings where exposure to
