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 the OMB for approval. To
comply with this requirement, we are
publishing this notice of a proposed
data collection as described below. The
OMB is particularly interested in
comments that will help:
1. 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;
2. Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
3. Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
4. 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 submissions
of responses.
5. Assess information collection costs.

National Vital Statistics Report Forms
(OMB Control Number 0920–0213,
expires 04/30/2018)—Revision—
National Center for Health Statistics
(NCHS), Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The compilation of national vital
statistics dates back to the beginning of
the 20th century and has been
conducted since 1960 by the Division of
Vital Statistics of the National Center for
Health Statistics, CDC. The collection of
the data is authorized by 42 U.S.C. 242k.
This submission requests approval to
collect the monthly and annually
summary statistics for three years.
immediately following the month of
occurrence.
The Annual Vital Statistics
Occurrence Report Form collects final
annual counts of marriages and divorces
by month for each State and Territory,
the District of Columbia, and New York
City as well as 33 counties in New
Mexico. These final counts are usually
available from State or county officials
about eight months after the end of the
data year. The data are widely used by
government, academic, private research,
and commercial organizations in
tracking changes in trends of family
formation and dissolution.
There are no costs to respondents
other than their time.
The Monthly Vital Statistics Report
forms provide counts of monthly
occurrences of births, deaths, and infant
deaths. Similar data have been
published since 1937 and are the sole
source of these data at the National
level. The data are used by the
Department of Health and Human
Services and by other government,
academic, and private research and
commercial organizations in tracking
changes in trends of vital events.
Respondents for the Monthly Vital
Statistics Reports Form are registration
officials in each State and Territory, the
District of Columbia, and New York
City. This form is also designed to
collect counts of monthly occurrences of
births, deaths, and infant deaths
