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 entitled
Strengthening United States Response to
Resistant Gonorrhea (SURRG) 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 November 15, 2017 to obtain
comments from the public and affected
agencies. CDC received one nonsubstantive comment on this 60 day
public 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;
(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,

Proposed Project
Strengthening U.S. Response to
Resistant Gonorrhea (SURRG)—New—
National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral
Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention
(NCHHSTP), Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
daltland on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with NOTICES
Background and Brief Description
The purposes of Strengthening U.S.
Response to Resistant Gonorrhea
(SURRG) are to: (1) Improve national
capacity to detect, monitor, and respond
to emerging antibiotic-resistant
gonorrhea, (2) understand trends in, and
factors contributing to antibioticresistant gonorrhea, and (3) build a
robust evidence base for public health
action. This information collection is
important because: (1) Effective
treatment of gonorrhea is critical to
gonorrhea control and prevention; (2)
untreated or inadequately treated
gonorrhea can cause serious
reproductive health complications, such
as infertility; (3) Neisseria gonorrhoeae
(the bacterium that causes gonorrhea)
has consistently demonstrated the
ability to develop resistance to the
antibiotics used for treatment and may
be developing resistance to the last
remaining treatment option
recommended by the CDC; and (4)
antibiotic-resistant gonorrhea is
extremely difficult to detect without
enhanced surveillance and public
health activities, such as SURRG,
because healthcare providers rarely
perform or have access to resistance
testing for individual patients.
SURRG will support rapid detection
of resistant gonorrhea and get actionable
information into the hands of healthcare
providers (to support appropriate
treatment of individual patients) and
local health departments (to support
rapid public health response to slow the
spread of resistant infections).
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:54 Aug 06, 2018
Jkt 244001
Jurisdictions participating in SURRG
applied, as part of a competitive
process, and will participate
voluntarily. As an overview of SURRG,
healthcare providers at participating
clinics (sexually transmitted disease
[STD] clinics affiliated with a single
public health department or other
participating non-STD clinic sites) will
collect specimens for N. gonorrhoeae
culture testing from men and women
seeking care for possible gonorrhea.
Specimens that demonstrate N.
gonorrhoeae (called ‘‘isolates’’) will
undergo antibiotic resistance testing
within several days at the local public
health laboratory. Laboratory results
demonstrating resistance will be rapidly
communicated by the laboratory to the
healthcare provider and designated
health department staff member, who
will initiate a field investigation.
Researchers will interview the patient
(from whom the resistant specimen was
collected) about risk factors and recent
contacts, and will re-test to ensure cure.
The health department will interview
recent contacts and test them for
gonorrhea. The participating health
departments will collect and transmit to
CDC, demographic and clinical data
about persons tested for and diagnosed
with gonorrhea in the participating
clinics, results of local antibiotic
resistance testing, and information
about field investigations. None of the
data transmitted to CDC will contain
any personally identifiable information.
CDC will use the data to monitor
resistance, understand risk factors for
resistance, and identify new approaches
to prevent the spread of resistance. CDC
will receive transmitted data through its
Secure Access Management Services
(SAMS). SAMS is an approved federal
information technology system that
provides authorized and validated users
secure and encrypted access to CDC file
transfer applications. The encrypted
data will be stored in a secure CDC
server with strictly controlled and
restricted access rights. Isolates will be
shipped each month to one of four
Antibiotic Resistance Regional
Laboratory Network (ARLN) laboratories
for confirmatory antibiotic susceptibility
testing and molecular characterization.
Under the SURRG protocol, the local
SURRG data managers from each of the
funded jurisdictions will abstract STD
clinic data for patients tested for
gonorrhea, receive data from non-STD
clinic healthcare sites about persons
tested for gonorrhea, receive resistance
testing laboratory results from local
public health laboratories, abstract data
about field investigations, and will
PO 00000

merge the data. Every two months, the
local SURRG data manager will clean
the data, remove personally identifiable
information, and transmit the data to
CDC. We estimate these data processes
will take 16 hours every two months.
Annually, the local SURRG data
manager will send a final cumulative
data file. Seven data transmissions/
responses will occur.
Every two months, data managers at
each of the participating non-STD clinic
health centers will abstract and clean
data and securely transmit the data to
the local SURRG data manager. We
estimate that it will take 3 hours each
time data managers at each non-STD
SURRG location abstract, clean, and
transmit SURRG data.
Microbiologists at public health
laboratories from each of the nine
SURRG funded jurisdictions will
conduct antibiotic resistance testing on
all N. gonorrhoeae isolates from all STD
clinic sites and non-STD clinic sites
participating in SURRG. Each test takes
approximately 10 minutes of staff time,
and testing of control strains will also be
conducted approximately twice per
week at each laboratory. On average,
each jurisdiction will conduct
approximately 600 resistance tests per
year for patient care, plus 100 control
strains per year for quality assurance.
Thus, each grantee will perform
approximately 700 tests per year. Every
two months, a laboratory data manager
will abstract test results and securely
send the data file to the local SURRG
data manager. We estimate that
laboratory data managers will spend
approximately 1 hour each time they
abstract, clean, and transmit project
data.
Health department staff will interview
any person diagnosed with antibioticresistant gonorrhea or having a case of
gonorrhea of public health significance
index case, a diagnosed person’s social
and sexual contacts, and the sexual
contacts of the index case’s sexual
contacts.
On average, each jurisdiction will
identify four drug-resistant isolates each
month. These isolates will spur field
investigations, which will result in six
additional interviews each month. We
estimate 120 interviews will occur
annually at each site (annual 1,080
interviews for the nine sites). Each
interview will take 30 minutes.
The total estimated annual burden
hours are 2,976. Respondents receive
federal funds to participate in this
project. There are no additional costs to
respondents other than their time.

each jurisdiction will conduct approximately 600 resistance tests per

results and securely send the data file to the local SURRG data
manager. We estimate that laboratory data managers will spend
approximately 1 hour each time they abstract, clean, and transmit
project data.
Health department staff will interview any person diagnosed with
antibiotic-resistant gonorrhea or having a case of gonorrhea of public
health significance index case, a diagnosed person's social and sexual
contacts, and the sexual contacts of the index case's sexual contacts.
On average, each jurisdiction will identify four drug-resistant
