The purpose is to assess recipients’ individual and collective progress towards the larger aims of the cooperative agreement, direct technical assistance to recipients, and obtain information needed to help assess the cooperative agreement’s public health impact. The resulting data will be used to identify areas for improvement both within individual sites and as it pertains to the funded community as a whole, and to document outcomes associated with STD surveillance, prevention, and control efforts. Data will be collected in aggregate using a Microsoft Excel-based data collection tool. All health department recipients will be required to submit the data tool annually. The population from which data will be collected is the 59 state, local, and territorial health departments that are funded through the cooperative agreement PS19–1901 STD PCHD. The total annual burden hours are 1,770. There are no other costs to respondents other than their time.

Currently, CDC does not have a standard template for a DMP. DMPs can be a checklist, paragraph, or any other format. Due to this fact, CDC has had to refer extramural applicants and recipients to external websites for examples on how to construct a DMP.

DMPs will be submitted as standalone sections of the NOFO and annual continuation applications; revisions can also be submitted by the awardees whenever needed.

Background and Brief Description Section 306 of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act (42 U.S.C.), as amended, authorizes that the Secretary of Health and Human Services (DHHS), acting through NCHS, shall collect statistics on the extent and nature of illness and disability of the population of the United States. The National Death Index (NDI) is a database containing identifying death record information submitted annually 1033 Number of responses per respondent 1 Average burden per response (in hours) 60/60 to NCHS by all the jurisdiction (states and territories) vital statistics offices, beginning with deaths in 1979. Searches against the NDI file provide the jurisdictions and dates of death, and the death certificate numbers of deceased study subjects. Using the NDI Plus service, researchers have the option of also receiving cause of death information for deceased subjects, thus reducing the need to request copies of death certificates from the jurisdictions. The NDI Plus option currently provides the International Classification of Disease (ICD) codes for the underlying and multiple causes of death for the years 1979–2018. Health researchers must complete administrative forms in order to apply for NDI services, and submit records of study subjects for computer matching against the NDI file. CDC requests OMB approval to continue the use of the three administrative forms (the application form, repeat request form, and transmittal form) utilized in the operation of the National Death Index (NDI) program, along with worksheets used to calculate related fees. These forms are submitted by NDI users when applying for use of the NDI and when actually using the service. In addition, this request includes the introduction of electronic versions that will ultimately replace the three paper documents, one of which will include a minor reduction in the number of data collection items. OMB approval is requested for three years. Participation is voluntary and there is no cost to respondents except for their time. Total estimated annualized burden will increase 330 hours, due primarily to the expected increase in use of the NDI application, repeat request and transmittal forms. The revised total estimated annualized burden hours are 787. jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with NOTICES ESTIMATED ANNUALIZED BURDEN HOURS Number of respondents Type of respondents Form name Researcher .....................................................

Proposed Project

    Templates for Extramural Data Management Plans--New--National 
Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), 
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    Data management plans (DMPs) are required of entities using CDC 
funds to collect or generate public health data. DMPs will be submitted 
to CDC by grant and cooperative agreement awardees for assessment to 
verify that they are concordant with CDC's data sharing policy. 
Currently, CDC does not have a standard template for a DMP. DMPs can be 
a checklist, paragraph, or any other format. Due to this fact, CDC has 
had to refer extramural applicants and recipients to external websites 
for examples on how to construct a DMP. This new ICR is being developed 
by CDC's National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health 
Promotion (NCCDPHP) to create standardized templates for DMPs so that 
they will be easier to create, easier to review, better ensure 
compliance with CDC's requirements, and increase the likelihood of 
first-time approval by project officers. DMPs will be submitted as 
standalone sections of the NOFO and annual continuation applications; 
revisions can also be submitted by the awardees whenever needed.
    CDC requests approval for 1033 burden hours annually. There are no 
costs to respondents other than their time.
