The FFIEC 002S must be filed quarterly along with the U.S. branch or agency’s FFIEC 002. The data from both reports are used for (1) monitoring deposit and credit transactions of U.S. residents; (2) monitoring the impact of policy changes; (3) analyzing structural issues concerning foreign bank activity in U.S. markets; (4) understanding flows of banking funds and indebtedness of developing countries in connection with data collected by the International Monetary Fund and the Bank for International Settlements that are used in economic analysis; and (5) assisting in the supervision of U.S. offices of foreign banks. The Federal Reserve System collects and processes these reports on behalf of all three agencies. No changes are proposed to the FFIEC 002 and FFIEC 002S reporting forms or instructions. 2. Report title: Country Exposure Report for U.S. Branches and Agencies of Foreign Banks. Agency form number: FFIEC 019. OMB control number: 7100–0213. Frequency of response: Quarterly. Affected public: U.S. branches and agencies of foreign banks. Number of respondents: 167. Estimated average time per response: 10 hours. Estimated total annual burden: 6,680 hours. General description of report: This information collection is mandatory (12 U.S.C. 3906 for all agencies); 12 U.S.C. 3105 and 3108 for the Board; 12 U.S.C. 1817 and 1820 for the FDIC; and 12 U.S.C. 161 for the OCC. This information collection is given confidential treatment under the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552(b)(8)). Abstract: All individual U.S. branches and agencies of foreign banks that have more than $30 million in direct claims on residents of foreign countries must file the FFIEC 019 report quarterly. Currently, all respondents report adjusted exposure amounts to the five largest countries having at least $20 million in total adjusted exposure. The agencies collect this data to monitor the extent to which such branches and agencies are pursuing prudent country risk diversification policies and limiting potential liquidity pressures. No changes are proposed to the FFIEC 019 reporting form or instructions. Request for Comment Comments are invited on: a. Whether the information collections are necessary for the proper performance of the agencies’ functions, VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:43 May 05, 2015 Jkt 235001 including whether the information has practical utility; b.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), Federal agencies must obtain approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for each collection of information they conduct or sponsor. In addition, the PRA also requires Federal agencies to provide a 60-day notice in the Federal Register concerning each proposed collection of information, including each new proposed collection, each proposed extension of existing collection of information, and each reinstatement of previously approved information collection before submitting the collection to OMB for approval.

31/2016)--Revision--National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic 
Infectious Diseases (NCEZID), Centers for Disease Control and 
Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    The Emerging Infections Programs (EIPs) are population-based 
centers of excellence established through a network of state health 
departments collaborating with academic institutions; local health 
departments; public health and clinical laboratories; infection control 
professionals; and healthcare providers. EIPs assist in local, state, 
and national efforts to prevent, control, and monitor the public health 
impact of infectious diseases. Various parts of the EIP have received 
separate Office of Management and Budget (OMB) clearances (Active 
Bacterial Core Surveillance [ABCs]--OMB number 0920-0802 and All Age 
Influenza Hospitalization Surveillance--OMB number 0920-0852); however 
this request seeks to have all core EIP activities under one clearance.
    Activities of the EIPs fall into the following general categories: 
(1) Active surveillance; (2) applied public health epidemiologic and 
laboratory activities; (3) implementation and evaluation of pilot 
prevention/intervention projects; and (4) flexible response to public 
health emergencies.
    Activities of the EIPs are designed to: (1) Address issues that the 
EIP network is particularly suited to investigate; (2) maintain 
sufficient flexibility for emergency response and new problems as they 
arise; (3) develop and evaluate public health interventions to inform 
public health policy and treatment guidelines; (4) incorporate training 
as a key function; and (5) prioritize projects that lead directly to 
the prevention of disease.
    Proposed respondents will include state health departments who may 
collaborate with one or more of the following: Academic institutions, 
local health departments, public health and clinical laboratories, 
infection control professionals, and healthcare providers. Frequency of 
reporting will be determined as cases arise.
    The total estimated burden is 22,755 hours. There is no cost to 
respondents other than their time.
