Surveillance (OMB No. 0920-0819, Expiration 08/31/2012)--Reinstatement 
with Change--National Center for HIV, Viral Hepatitis, STD and TB 
Prevention (NCHHSTP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    Because the STD epidemiology in the United States is changing 
rapidly, CDC must continue to monitor disease indicators that are 
included in the STD surveillance currently being implemented. CDC is 
proposing to continue electronic information collection which includes 
information elements that are integrated into the existing nationally 
notifiable STDs. These information elements are beyond the scope of the 
OMB-approved collection called Weekly and Annual Morbidity and 
Mortality Reports (MMWR, OMB 0920-0007). This ongoing 
collection will have a title change from ``Sexually Transmitted Disease 
(STD) Morbidity Surveillance'' to ``Nationally Notifiable Sexually 
Transmitted Disease (STD) Morbidity Surveillance and provides evidence 
to better define STD distribution and epidemiology in the United 
States. The surveillance system modifies several data elements 
currently included in the MMWR collection and add others to produce a 
set of sensitive indicators. This surveillance will continue to provide 
the evidence to enhance our understanding of STDs, develop intervention 
strategies, and evaluate the impact of ongoing control efforts. CDC 
works closely with state and local STD control programs to monitor and 
respond to STD outbreaks and trends in STD-associated risk behavior. 
Users of data include, but are not limited to, congressional offices, 
state and local health agencies, health care providers, and other 
health-related groups.
    CDC disseminates all STD surveillance information through the MMWR 
series of publications, including the MMWR, the CDC Surveillance 
Summaries, the Recommendations and Reports, and the annual Summary of 
Notifiable Diseases, United States. Additionally, DSTDP publishes an 
annual STD-specific surveillance summary and supplements in hard copy 
and on the Internet https://www.cdc.gov/std/Stats/. CDC will use the 
findings from this and other STD surveillance to develop guidelines, 
control strategies, and impact measures that monitor trends in STDs in 
the United States. We expect a total of 57 sites in state, city, and 
territory health departments will be submitting STD morbidity 
information to CDC each week.
    There is no cost to respondents other than their time. The total 
estimated annualized burden hours are 989.
