ACTION: Notice with comment period.
AGENCY:
The Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC), as part of
its continuing effort to reduce public
burden and maximize the utility of
government information, invites the
general public and other Federal
agencies the opportunity to comment on
a proposed and/or continuing
information collection, as required by
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
This notice invites comment on a
proposed information collection project
titled Airline and Vessel and Traveler
Information Collection (42 CFR part 71)
that enables CDC to order air carriers
and maritime vessels to provide certain
contact information for travelers in the
event there is a confirmed illness
onboard that poses a public health risk.

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
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.

(CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Under the Public Health Service Act
(42 United States Code 264), and under
42 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR)
71.4 and 71.5, CDC can order air carriers
and maritime vessels arriving from
another country to submit a certain
information related to passengers and
crew that CDC believes were exposed to
co-traveler infected with a
communicable disease of public health
concern.
Stopping a communicable disease
outbreak—whether it is naturally
occurring or intentionally caused—
requires the use of the most rapid and
effective public health tools available.
Basic public health practices, such as
collaborating with airlines in the
identification and notification of
potentially exposed contacts, are critical
tools in the fight against the
introduction, transmission, and spread
currently located in their jurisdiction. In
general, state and local health
departments are responsible for the
contact investigations. In rare cases,
CDC may use the manifest data to
perform the contact investigation
directly. In either case, CDC works with
state and local health departments to
ensure individuals are contacted and
provided appropriate public health
follow-up.
CDC estimates that for each traveler
manifest ordered, airlines require
approximately six hours to review the
order, search their records, and send
those records to CDC. There is no cost
to respondents other than their time
perform these actions. The total
estimated hourly burden to respondents
as a result of this information collection
is 600 hours per year. While CDC has
included maritime conveyance manifest
orders in the public health rationale for
this information collection, these orders
are rare and are not included in the
burden table.
of communicable diseases in the United
States.
The collection of pertinent contact
information enables Quarantine Public
Health Officers in CDC’s Division of
Global Migration and Quarantine
(DGMQ) to notify state and local health
departments in order for them to make
contact with individuals who may have
been exposed to a contagious person
during travel and identify appropriate
next steps.
In the event that there is a confirmed
case of communicable disease of public
health concern aboard an aircraft or
maritime vessel, CDC collects manifest
information for those passengers and
crew at risk for exposure. This specific
manifest information collection differs
depending on the communicable
disease that is confirmed during air or
maritime travel. CDC then uses this
passenger and crew manifest
information to coordinate with state and
local health departments so they can
follow-up with residents who live or are
