Notice.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
In compliance with section
3506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork
SUMMARY:
Reduction Act of 1995, the Office of the
Secretary (OS), Department of Health
and Human Services, announces plans
to submit an Information Collection
Request (ICR), described below, to the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB). The ICR is for extending the use
of the approved information collection
assigned OMB control number 0990–
0275, which expires on October 31,
2013. Prior to submitting that ICR to
OMB, OS seeks comments from the
public regarding the burden estimate,
below, or any other aspect of the ICR.
DATES: Comments on the ICR must be
received on or before June 10, 2013.
ADDRESSES: Submit your comments to
Information.CollectionClearance@
hhs.gov or by calling (202) 690–6162.

60D for reference.
Information Collection Request Title:
Performance Data System (PDS).
OMB No.: 0990–0275.
Abstract: This request for clearance is
to extend data collection activities by
three (3) years for a currently approved
collection using the OMB-approved
Performance Data System (PDS), the tool
used by Office of Minority Health
(OMH) to collect program management
and performance data for all OMHfunded projects. Grantee data collection
via the Uniform Data Set (UDS) (original
data collection system) was first
approved by OMB on June 7, 2004
(OMB No. 0990–275). OMB approval
was also received for modifications to
the UDS to accommodate grant
programs that were not required to use
the UDS at the time the system was
developed (August 23, 2007), which
upgraded the data collection tool from
the UDS to the PDS (August 31, 2010).
Clearance is due to expire on October
31, 2013.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: The clearance is also to
continue data collection using the PDS,
enhancing the system to improve
functionality and to alter questions to
improve data collection completeness
and quality. The functionality and
question improvements are intended to
improve OMH’s ability to comply with
Federal reporting requirements and
monitor and evaluate performance by
enabling the efficient collection of more
performance-oriented data which are
tied to OMH-wide performance
reporting needs. The ability to monitor
and evaluate performance in this
manner, and to work towards
continuous program improvement are
basic functions that OMH must be able
to accomplish in order to carry out its
mandate with the most effective and
appropriate use of resources.
Likely Respondents: Respondents for
this data collection include the project
directors leading OMH-funded projects
and/or the date entry persons assigned
for each OMH-funded project. Affected
public includes not-for-profit
institutions and State, Local, or Tribal
Governments.
Burden Statement: Burden in this
context means the time expended by
persons to generate, maintain, retain,
disclose or provide the information
requested. This includes the time
needed to review instructions, to
develop, acquire, install and utilize
technology and systems for the purpose
of collecting, validating and verifying
information, processing and
maintaining information, and disclosing
and providing information, to train
personnel and to be able to respond to
a collection of information, to search
data sources, to complete and review
the collection of information, and to
transmit or otherwise disclose the
information. The total annual burden
hours estimated for this ICR are
summarized in the table below.

Background: The Advisory Board was
established under the Energy Employees
Occupational Illness Compensation Program
Act of 2000 to advise the President on a
variety of policy and technical functions
required to implement and effectively
manage the new compensation program. Key
functions of the Advisory Board include
providing advice on the development of
probability of causation guidelines, which
have been promulgated by the Department of
Health and Human Services (HHS) as a final
rule; advice on methods of dose
reconstruction, which have also been
promulgated by HHS as a final rule; advice
on the scientific validity and quality of dose
estimation and reconstruction efforts being
performed for purposes of the compensation
program; and advice on petitions to add
classes of workers to the Special Exposure
Cohort (SEC).
In December 2000, the President delegated
responsibility for funding, staffing, and
operating the Advisory Board to HHS, which
subsequently delegated this authority to the
CDC. NIOSH implements this responsibility
for CDC. The charter was issued on August
3, 2001, renewed at appropriate intervals,
most recently, August 3, 2011, and will
expire on August 3, 2013.
Purpose: This Advisory Board is charged

program; and (c) upon request by the
Secretary, HHS, advising the Secretary on
whether there is a class of employees at any
Department of Energy facility who were
exposed to radiation but for whom it is not
feasible to estimate their radiation dose, and
on whether there is reasonable likelihood
that such radiation doses may have
endangered the health of members of this
class.
Matters to Be Discussed: The agenda for the
conference call includes: Subcommittee and
Work Group Updates; SEC Petition
Evaluations Update for the July 2013
Advisory Board Meeting; Plans for the July
