Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 15 / Thursday, January 23, 2020 / Notices
the Candida Monthly Data Report is two
hours.
The use of ARLN Alerts encompass
targeted AR threats that include new
and rare plasmid-mediated (‘‘jumping’’)
carbapenemase genes, isolates that are
non-susceptible to all drugs tested, and
detection of novel resistance
mechanisms. These alerts must be sent
within one working day of detection.
The elements of these messages include
the unique public health laboratory
specimen ID and a summary of
specimen testing results generated to
date. With the conversion to HL7
messaging of these data will be
transmitted in real-time, thus
eliminating the need to send alerts.
Until that time, REDCap will be utilized
to communicate alerts. CDC estimates
that public health laboratories send an
average of 34 ARLN Alerts per lab each
year, with an estimated burden per
response of 0.1 hours. The estimated
burden of response for Candida
identification is also 0.1 hours, though
far fewer alerts are reported yearly
(estimated to be approximately 700 total
per year including all 55 jurisdictions,
averaging to 13 per each jurisdiction).
The total estimated annualized
burden across all AR Lab Network labs
and activities for DHQP is 4555 hours.
Public Health laboratories receive
federal funds through CDC’s
Epidemiology and Laboratory Capacity
for Infectious Diseases (ELC) mechanism
to participate in this project.

Proposed Project
Public Health Accreditation Board
(PHAB): Assessment of Processes and
Outcomes—New—Center for State,
Tribal, Local and Territorial Support
(CSTLTS), Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) works to protect
America from health, safety and security
threats, both foreign and in the U.S.
CDC strives to fulfill this mission, in
part, by supporting state, tribal, local,
and territorial (STLT) health
departments. One mechanism for
supporting STLT health departments is
through CDC’s support of a national,
voluntary accreditation program.
CDC supports the Public Health
Accreditation Board (PHAB), a nonprofit organization that serves as the
independent accrediting body. PHAB,
with considerable input from national,
state, tribal, and local public health
professionals, developed a consensus
set of standards to assess the capacity of
state, tribal, local, and territorial health
departments. The first health
departments were accredited by PHAB
in early 2013; as of August 2019, a total
of 268 health departments (36 state,
three Tribal and 229 local) as well as
one statewide integrated local public
health department system have been
E:\FR\FM\23JAN1.SGM
23JAN1
3915
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 15 / Thursday, January 23, 2020 / Notices
accredited. Accreditation is granted for
a five-year period and the first several
health departments have successfully
completed the reaccreditation process.
Formal efforts to assess the outcomes of
the accreditation program began in late
2012 and continue to date. Priorities
focus on gathering feedback for program
improvement and documenting program
outcomes to demonstrate impact and
inform decision making about future
program direction. Starting in 2012 and
running through December 2019, the
Robert Wood Johnson Foundation
(RWJF) and the social science
organization NORC at the University of
Chicago, led evaluation efforts. CDC will
assume support of the evaluation
starting in 2020 and as a result, OMB
approval for data collection is being
sought.
The purpose of this ICR is to support
the collection of information from
participating health departments
through a series of five surveys. The
surveys seek to collect longitudinal data
on each health department throughout
their accreditation process.
The respondent universe will include
STLT health department directors or
designees. All surveys will be
administered electronically; a link to the
survey website will be provided in the
email invitation. The surveys will be
administered on a quarterly basis and
sent to all health departments that reach
each milestone in the accreditation
process (application, recently
accredited, accredited for one year,
approaching reaccreditation, and
reaccreditation). Each health
department will be invited to participate
in each survey once (for a total of 5
surveys max per health department).
The total annualized estimated burden
is 100 hours. There are no costs to
respondents other than their time.

Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) works with states,
territories, tribal organizations, and the
District of Columbia (collectively
referred to as ‘‘state-based’’ programs) to
develop, implement, manage, and
evaluate tobacco prevention and control
programs. Support and guidance for
these programs have been provided
through cooperative agreement funding
and technical assistance administered
by CDC’s National Center for Chronic
Disease Prevention and Health
Promotion (NCCDPHP). Partnerships
and collaboration with other federal
agencies, nongovernmental
organizations, local communities,
public and private sector organizations,
and major voluntary associations have
been critical to the success of these
efforts. NCCDPHP cooperative
agreements DP15–1509 (National StateBased Tobacco Control Programs) and
DP14–1410PPHF14 (Public Health
Approaches for Ensuring Quitline
Capacity) continue to support efforts
