Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork
Reduction Act Review
As part of a Federal Government-wide
effort to streamline the process to seek
feedback from the public on service
delivery, the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC) has submitted a
Generic Information Collection Request
(Generic ICR): ‘‘Generic Clearance for
the Collection of Qualitative Feedback
on Agency Service Delivery’’ to the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for review and approval under
the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) (44
U.S.C. 3501 et. seq.). The notice for the
proposed information collection is
published to obtain comments from the
public and affected agencies.
Written comments and suggestions
from the public and affected agencies
concerning the proposed collection of
information are encouraged. Your
comments should address any of the
following: (a) Evaluate whether the
proposed collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility; (b) Evaluate the
accuracy of the agencies estimate of the
burden of the proposed collection of
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
(c) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; (d) Minimize the burden of
the collection of information on those
who are to respond, including through
the use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses; and (e) Assess information
collection costs.
To request additional information on
the proposed project or to obtain a copy
of the information collection plan and
instruments, call (404) 639–7570 or
send an email to omb@cdc.gov. Written
comments and/or suggestions regarding
the items contained in this notice
should be directed to the Attention:
CDC Desk Officer, Office of Management
and Budget, Washington, DC 20503 or
by fax to (202) 395–5806. Written
comments should be received within 30
days of this notice.
Proposed Project
Generic Clearance for the Collection
of Qualitative Feedback on Agency
Service Delivery (OMB Control No.
0920–0974, Expiration Date June 30,
2016)—Revision—Center for
Surveillance, Epidemiology, and
Laboratory Sciences, Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
This revision in the information
collection activity is being requested
primarily to reflect a simultaneous
increase in (1) the number of programs
in the Center due to a reorganization in
2014, (2) interest in electronic survey
methods, and (3) need for customer
input to and satisfaction with program
Web sites and materials. The activity
will garner increased qualitative
customer and stakeholder feedback in
an efficient, timely manner, in
accordance with the Administration’s
commitment to improving service
delivery. By qualitative feedback we
mean information that provides useful
insights on perceptions and opinions,
but are not statistical surveys that yield
quantitative results that can be
generalized to the population of study.
This feedback will provide insights into
customer or stakeholder perceptions,
experiences and expectations, provide
an early warning of issues with service,
or focus attention on areas where
communication, training or changes in
operations might improve delivery of
products or services. These collections
will allow for ongoing, collaborative and
actionable communications between the
Agency and its customers and
stakeholders. It will also allow feedback
to contribute directly to the
improvement of program management.
Feedback collected under this generic
clearance will provide useful
information, but it will not yield data
that can be generalized to the overall
population. This type of generic
clearance for qualitative information
will not be used for quantitative
information collections that are
designed to yield reliably actionable
results, such as monitoring trends over
time or documenting program
performance. Such data uses require
more rigorous designs that address: The
target population to which
generalizations will be made, the
sampling frame, the sample design
(including stratification and clustering),
the precision requirements or power
calculations that justify the proposed
sample size, the expected response rate,
methods for assessing potential nonresponse bias, the protocols for data
collection, and any testing procedures
that were or will be undertaken prior
fielding the study. Depending on the
degree of influence the results are likely
to have, such collections may still be
eligible for submission for other generic
mechanisms that are designed to yield
quantitative results.
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid
Office of Management and Budget
control number. There is no cost to
respondents other than their time. The
estimated annualized burden hours for
this data collection activity are 16,957.

Proposed Project
Update seat belt fit recommendation
for children—New—National Center for
Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC),
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) is seeking OMB
approval to conduct a new information
collection for a study entitled, ‘‘Update
Seat Belt Fit Recommendation for
Children,’’ over a period of three years.
CDC seeks to measure how seat belts
fit children in vehicles with and
without booster seats. The scientific
basis for the current height
recommendation for when children can
transition from using a booster seat to
just a seat belt is from a 1993 study that
is outdated (Durbin et al., 2011; Reed et
al., 2013). The goal of the new collection
is to use the latest technology among the
largest sample of children to date to
help inform when children can safely
transition from using a booster seat with
a seat belt to using only a seat belt.
Findings from this data collection will
inform CDC’s child passenger safety
recommendation regarding when
children can safely transition from using
a booster seat with the seat belt to using
only the seat belt. This study will also
provide information on ways to further
reduce motor vehicle-related injuries
and deaths among children.
Prospective study participants will be
children aged 6–12 years old in the
greater District of Columbia (DC) area.
Parents of prospective study
participants will answer a series of
screening questions to determine
eligibility. Children who meet the
screening criteria and are willing to
participate will complete an in-person
measurement session. Data will be
analyzed using descriptive statistics,
mean, standard deviation, and logistic
regression. Selected findings will
eventually be published in a peerreviewed journal.
The estimated annual burden hours
are 466. There are no costs to
respondents other than their time.
