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.

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 Monitoring and
Reporting System for the National
Tobacco Control Program 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 April 23,
2019 to obtain comments from the
public and affected agencies. CDC
received one comment 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.

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

Proposed Project
Monitoring and Reporting System for
the National Tobacco Control Program
(0920–1097)—Reinstatement with
Change—National Center for Chronic
Disease Prevention and Health
Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for
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
E:\FR\FM\23JAN1.SGM
23JAN1
3916
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 15 / Thursday, January 23, 2020 / Notices
since 1999 to build state health
department infrastructure and capacity
to implement comprehensive tobacco
prevention and control programs.
Through these cooperative agreements,
health departments in all 50 states, the
District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and
Guam are funded to implement
evidence-based environmental, policy,
and systems strategies and activities
designed to reduce tobacco use,
secondhand smoke exposure, tobacco
related disparities and associated
disease, disability, and death. CDC
plans to request OMB approval to
collect information from the 53 statebased programs funded under both
DP15–1509 and DP14–1410PPHF14.
Awardees will report information about
their work plan objectives, activities,
infrastructure, and performance
measures. Each awardee will submit an
Annual Work Plan Progress Report
using an Excel-based Work Plan Tool.
The estimated burden per response on
each of the abovementioned tools is six
hours for each. Each awardee will
submit an Annual Performance Measure
report using an Excel-based
Performance Measures tool. The
estimated burden per response on each
of the abovementioned tools is five
hours for each. Each awardee will
submit an Annual Progress Report
(APR) using an Excel-based APR tool.
The estimated burden per response on
each of the abovementioned tools is 18
hours for each. Each awardee will
submit an Annual Component Model of
Infrastructure (CMI) using an Excelbased CMI tool. The estimated burden
per response on each of the
abovementioned tools is three hours for
each. In addition, each awardee will
submit an Annual Budget Progress
Report using an Excel-based Budget
Tool. The estimated burden per
response is five hours for each Annual
Budget Progress Report. The same
instruments will be used for all
information collection and reporting
throughout the OMB approval period.
Awardees will upload their information
to www.grantssolutions.gov on an
annual basis to satisfy routine
cooperative agreement reporting
requirements.
CDC will use the information
collected to monitor each awardee’s
progress and to identify facilitators and
challenges to program implementation
and achievement of outcomes.
Monitoring allows CDC to determine
whether an awardee 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.
Monitoring and evaluation activities
also allow CDC to provide oversight of
the use of federal funds, and to identify
and disseminate information about
successful prevention and control
strategies implemented by awardees.
These functions are central to
NCCDPHP’s broad mission of reducing
the burden of chronic diseases. Finally,
the information collection will allow
CDC to monitor the increased emphasis
on partnerships and programmatic
collaboration, and is expected to reduce
duplication of effort, enhance program
impact and maximize the use of federal
funds.
OMB approval is requested for three
years. Participation in the information
collection is required as a condition of
funding. There are no costs to
respondents other than their time.
