Notice.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
In compliance with section
3507(a)(1)(D) of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, the Office of the
Secretary (OS), Department of Health
and Human Services, has submitted an
Information Collection Request (ICR),
described below, to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and approval. The ICR is for a
new collection. Comments submitted
during the first public review of this ICR
will be provided to OMB. OMB will
accept further comments from the
public on this ICR during the review
and approval period.
DATES: Comments on the ICR must be
received on or before December 8, 2014.
ADDRESSES: Submit your comments to
OIRA_submission@omb.eop.gov or via
facsimile to (202) 395–5806.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: When
submitting comments or requesting
information, please include the
Information Collection Request Title
and document identifier HHS–OS–0990new 30D for reference.
Information Collection Request Title:
Tissue and Organ Donor epidemiology
Study (TODES).
Abstract: This Study is a request for
a new data collection OMB Number:
0990-new TODES is being conducted in
order to better understand the impact of
donor screening and selection
procedures, and to determine the extent
of donor-donation level data that are
collected for organ and tissue (including
ocular) donors. The data that are
obtained from Organ Procurement
Organizations (OPOs) and Eye Banks
will provide a better characterization of
the deceased donor pool; information
regarding data management and storage
practices; and a measure of the degree
of standardization of data collected by
various organizations across the U.S.
TODES may provide better estimates of
the risk of HIV, HBV and HCV
infections associated with organ and
tissue transplantation and the potential
for disease transmission; illustrate
differences in laboratory screening
methods and the impact of protocol
65959
variations; and serve as a pilot for future
studies. This retrospective study will
provide a framework for future,
prospective studies of organ and tissue
donors that could inform policy
decisions regarding donor qualification
procedures and, potentially, increase
the donor pool.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: A workshop in June 2005
(‘‘Preventing Organ and Tissue
Allograft-Transmitted Infection:
Priorities for Public Health
Intervention’’) identified gaps in organ
and tissue safety in the United States.
Participants developed a series of
allograft safety initiatives, assessed
progress, and identified priorities for
future interventions. Despite progress,
improved recognition and prevention of
donor-derived transmission events is
needed. It was concluded that this
requires systems integration across the
organ and tissue transplantation
communities including organ
procurement organizations, eye and
tissue banks, and transplant infectious
disease experts. Commitment of
resources and improved coordination of
efforts are required to develop essential
tools to enhance safety for transplant
recipients.
Likely Respondents: organ
procurement organizations, tissue
banks, eye banks

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 to reinstate the use of the
previously approved information
collection, Project Abstract Summary,
assigned OMB control number 0980–
0204 which expired on 11/30/2011, and
to reinstate this information collection
to 4040–0010 with a 3 year clearance.
The ICR also requests categorizing the
form as a common form, meaning HHS
will only request approval for its own
use of the form rather than aggregating
the burden estimate across all Federal
Agencies as was done for previous
actions on this OMB control number.
Prior to submitting that ICR to OMB,
EGOV seeks comments from the public
