Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork
Reduction Act Review
In accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
has submitted the information
collection request titled Contact
Investigation Outcome Reporting Forms
to the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for review and approval. CDC
previously published a ‘‘Proposed Data
Collection Submitted for Public
Comment and Recommendations’’
notice on October 13, 2017 to obtain
comments from the public and affected
agencies. CDC did not receive comments
related to the previous notice. This
notice serves to allow an additional 30
days for public and affected agency
comments.
CDC will accept all comments for this
proposed information collection project.
The Office of Management and Budget
is particularly interested in comments
that:
(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;
VerDate Sep<11>2014

(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. Direct
written comments and/or suggestions
regarding the items contained in this
notice to the Attention: CDC Desk
Officer, Office of Management and
Budget, 725 17th Street NW,
Washington, DC 20503 or by fax to (202)

2018)—Revision—National Center for
Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious
Diseases (NCEZID), Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
CDC’s Division of Global Migration
and Quarantine has a regulatory and
public health mission to prevent the
importation and spread of
communicable disease into and within
the United States. CDC works towards
fulfilling this mission through a number
of activities carried out at Quarantine
Stations strategically placed at 20 U.S.
ports of entry as well as coordinating
activities at CDC headquarters in
Atlanta, Georgia. A key portion of this
mission is responding to reports of
illness or death on air and maritime
conveyances and investigating any
potential exposures to determine if
public health follow up is needed.

CDC proposes to continue collecting
passenger-level, epidemiologic,
demographic, and health status data
from state/local Health Departments and
maritime operators at the conclusion of
contact investigations of individuals
believed to have been exposed to a
communicable disease during travel.
Health departments or maritime
operators will obtain the information for
CDC while conducting contact
investigations according to their
established policies and procedures.
The current information collection
request includes forms that are specific
to investigations about Tuberculosis
(TB), Measles, and Rubella. The request
also includes a General form for other
diseases of public health concern. In
2011, OMB initially approved the forms
to facilitate the collection and reporting
of pertinent information. Prior to 2011,
there were no standardized tools for
health departments and maritime
operators to report the outcomes of state
or vessel contact investigations to CDC.
The collected information will assist
CDC in fulfilling its regulatory
responsibility to prevent the
importation of communicable diseases
from foreign countries (42 CFR part 71)
and interstate control of communicable
diseases in humans (42 CFR part 70).
This information collection is also a
critical piece of the standard operating
procedures carried out by the 20
Quarantine Stations placed at key ports
of entry around the United States. The
purpose of all forms is the same: to
facilitate the collection of information
by public health partners to help CDC
quarantine officials fully understand the
extent of disease spread and
transmission during travel and to inform
the development and or refinement of
investigative protocols aimed at
reducing the spread of communicable
disease.
The respondents, state and local
health departments and maritime
conveyance operators (e.g., Cruise Ship
Medical Staff/Cargo Ship Managers),
may use the standardized forms to
submit data voluntarily to CDC via a

secure means of their choice (e.g., webbased application, fax or email).
As part of this revision, CDC requests
approval for a number of changes and
adjustments:
• CDC is discontinuing all Ebola
related forms;
• CDC is discontinuing all current
maritime-related forms except a
condensed maritime TB contact
outbreak contact investigation follow up
forms;
• no changes are requested of the Air
or Land associated forms; however
adjustments in burden are requested.
The proposed changes will result in a
decrease of 673 burden hours (from 782
burden hours to 109 hours).
There is no cost to respondents other
than their time to complete the form and
submit the data to CDC.

revision of the estimated number of TB
contact investigation forms used
