Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 92 / Monday, May 13, 2013 / Notices
of HHS to establish a public education
program to increase awareness about
organ donation and the need to provide
for an adequate rate of such donations.
In brief, DoT’s responsibilities are twofold: (1) To provide oversight and
guidance to the national organ
transplant system in the U.S. including
monitoring the Organ Procurement and
Transplantation Network and the
Scientific Registry of Transplant
Recipients; and (2) to implement a
program of public and professional
education and outreach aimed at
increasing the number of organ donors
in this country. Many preventable
deaths occur each year because of a
staggering imbalance between the
supply and demand for donor organs.
As of March 2013, the national
transplant waiting list exceeded
117,000. In 2011, the total number of
deceased and living organ donors was
only 14,145. These donors enabled
28,538 patients to receive a transplant
while 6,693 died waiting. Without
successful interventions to increase
donation, the disparity between need
and supply is likely to be substantially
exacerbated, resulting in more
unnecessary deaths.
Organdonor.gov is DoT’s primary
mechanism for providing the public
with information about organ donation.
Among the most visited pages on
organdonor.gov are the donor and
recipient life stories which in a recent
evaluation study were shown to raise
interest on the topic and, more
important, persuade people to register
as organ donors. To expand this
component of organdonor.gov, DoT
proposes to develop an application to
give organ recipients, living donors, and
donor families the opportunity to
voluntarily submit their stories to DoT
via a standardized online form. The
online form will be posted on
organdonor.gov and will collect
demographic and contact information,
the individual’s donation/transplant
story up to 500 words, a high resolution
photo, and a signed authorization. The
standardized, electronic form will
increase HRSA staff’s ability to process
those stories more efficiently. In
addition to enabling story submission,
the online application process will
make the donor and recipient life stories
posted on the site searchable by the
Number of

Responses per

public to enhance public viewing and
understanding of the organ donation
process. Submission of a story and
completion of the form is voluntary.
Overall, this application has the
potential to strengthen DoT’s outreach
efforts and increase organ donation
registration in the United States.
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.
The annual estimate of burden is as

SUMMARY: 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
National Cancer Institute (NCI),
National Institutes of Health (NIH), will
publish periodic summaries of proposed

grantees are required to submit interim
and final progress reports and other
post-award documents associated with
the monitoring, oversight, and closeout
of an award. This submission represents
a request for OMB to approve new
program specific progress report
guidelines for Cancer Nanotechnology
Platform Partnerships (CNPP) awarded
by the National Cancer Institute (NCI).
The CNPPs are part of the Alliance for
Nanotechnology in Cancer, a network of
awards funded by NCI to promote the
application of nanotechnology to cancer
research and care. The proposed
guidelines request information about
award performance related to trans-
Alliance collaboration, scientific
milestones, progress towards clinical
translation and technology
commercialization, and education and
outreach efforts. The report also gathers
information on leveraged funding,
patents and publications. The
information is gathered every six
months. This information is needed to
monitor the performance of this special
program within NCI, funded through
Requests for Applications (RFA CA–09–
013, released May 29, 2009) using the
cooperative agreement mechanism
(U01). The information will be used to
monitor individual award performance
and the effectiveness of the program as
a whole. The respondents are the
Principal Investigators of the awards,
along with their institutional business
officials. The awards are administered
by and the reports reviewed by the
Office of Cancer Nanotechnology
Research (OCNR), part of the Center for
Strategic Scientific Initiatives within
NCI.
OMB approval is requested for 3
years. There are no costs to respondents
other than their time. The estimated
annualized burden hours are 72.
