When the Government awards a costreimbursement construction contract,
the contractor must submit to the
contracting officer—and keep current a
chart showing the general executive and
administrative organization—the
personnel to be employed in connection
with the work under the contract, and
their respective duties. The chart is used
in the administration of the contract and

is used by contract administration
personnel to assure the work is being
properly accomplished at reasonable
prices.

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 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
of technical assistance provided to
them, as needed, to support attainment
of their performance measures. Program
monitoring and program evaluation
activities also allow CDC to identify and
disseminate information about
successful prevention strategies
implemented by recipients.
These functions are central to the
NCIPC’s broad mission of protecting
Americans from violence and injury
threats. This information collection will
enable the accurate, reliable, uniform,
and timely submission to CDC of each
recipient’s work plan and progress
reports, including strategy
implementation, program evaluation
and performance measures. It will also
enable CDC to evaluate the program
across all funded recipients.
CDC will use the information
collected to look at the aggregate impact
of program activities on program
outcomes across all 10 recipients. The
information collection will allow CDC
to monitor the increased emphasis on
strategies that affect health outcomes
and impact, and is expected to reduce
duplication of effort, enhance program
impact and maximize the use of federal
funds. CDC will be able to generate
reports that summarize their activities
and progress towards meeting work plan
strategies and performance measure
targets. In addition to CDC’s tracking of
program goals and outcomes, the data
collected will provide a way for
recipients to track their own activities
and funding to local organizations as
required by legislation. CDC will also
have the capacity to generate reports
that describe activities across multiple
recipients and will be able to provide
this information back to recipients or to
respond to inquiries from HHS, the
White House, Congress and other
stakeholders about the national DELTA
Impact Program activities and their
impact.
The total estimated annualized time
burden for this collection is 123 hours.
The only cost to respondents will be
time spent responding to the surveys.
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.

Background and Brief Description
The Centers for Disease Control and

OMB approval for a new information
collection project that involves 10
recipients (State Domestic Violence
Coalitions) funded through CDC’s
Domestic Violence Prevention
Enhancements and Leadership Through

recipients will report activity
information to CDC annually. The
Annual Progress Report (APR) tool and
Prevention Infrastructure Assessment
are designed to address four key
program evaluation questions as well as
performance reporting requirements

Resources (OFR, formerly the
Procurement and Grants Office).
Monitoring allows CDC to determine
whether a recipient is meeting
performance and budget goals and to

Proposed Project
DELTA Impact Recipient Monitoring and Assessment Tools--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) seeks a three-
year OMB approval for a new information collection project that
involves 10 recipients (State Domestic Violence Coalitions) funded
through CDC's Domestic Violence Prevention Enhancements and Leadership
Through Alliances (DELTA) Impact Program cooperative agreement (NOFO
CDC-RFA-CE18-1801). DELTA Impact recipients will report activity
information to CDC annually. The Annual Progress Report (APR) tool and
Prevention Infrastructure Assessment are designed to address four key
program evaluation questions as well as performance reporting
requirements established by CDC's Office of Financial Resources (OFR,
formerly the Procurement and Grants Office).
Monitoring allows CDC to determine whether a recipient is meeting
performance and budget goals and to make adjustments in the type and
level of technical assistance provided to them, as needed, to support
attainment of their performance measures. Program monitoring and
program evaluation activities also allow CDC to identify and
disseminate information about successful prevention strategies
implemented by recipients.
These functions are central to the NCIPC's broad mission of
protecting Americans from violence and injury threats. This information
collection will enable the accurate, reliable, uniform, and timely
submission to CDC of each recipient's work plan and progress reports,
including strategy implementation, program evaluation and performance
measures. It will also enable CDC to evaluate the program across all
funded recipients.
CDC will use the information collected to look at the aggregate
impact of program activities on program outcomes across all 10
recipients. The information collection will allow CDC to monitor the
increased emphasis on strategies that affect health outcomes and
impact, and is expected to reduce duplication of effort, enhance
program impact and maximize the use of federal funds. CDC will be able
to generate reports that summarize their activities and progress
towards meeting work plan strategies and performance measure targets.
