Knowledge Person for child respondents
in the ACBS, and to move it to the
BRFSS state-added questions section.
Also, in response to the 2017 Terms
of Clearance, the NACP undertook
efforts to streamline the 2021 ACBS
questionnaire, reduce unnecessary
burden, and ensure that the question
wording is synchronized with more
recent studies. The questionnaires were
re-evaluated by ACBS questionnaire
working groups and the ACBS
recipients.
The time burden estimates are based
on the 2016 ACBS data collection,
which is the most recent data released.
The burden table reflects the landline
and cell phone data collection methods
used in 2016 and later years.
Additionally, the time burden accounts
for reporting burden incurred by the
states for the monthly or quarterly adult
and child ACBS data submissions to
CDC. The total estimated annualized
time burden for all respondents is 6,615
hours. Participation in the ACBS is
voluntary and there are no costs to
respondents other than their time.

Proposed Project
National Vital Statistics Report Forms
(OMB Control No. 0920–0213, Exp. 04/
30/2021)—Extension — National Center
for Health Statistics (NCHS), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The compilation of national vital
statistics dates back to the beginning of
the 20th century and has been
conducted since 1960 by the Division of
Vital Statistics of the National Center for
Health Statistics, CDC. The collection of
the data is authorized by 42 U.S.C. 242k.
This submission requests approval to
collect monthly and annual summary
statistics for three years.
The Monthly Vital Statistics Report
forms provide counts of monthly
occurrences of births, deaths, and infant
deaths. Similar data have been
published since 1937 and are the sole
source of these data at the National
level. The data are used by the
Department of Health and Human
Services and by other government,
academic, and private research and
commercial organizations in tracking
changes in trends of vital events.
Respondents for the Monthly Vital
Statistics Reports Form are registration
officials in each State and Territory, the
District of Columbia, and New York
City. In addition, local (county) officials
in New Mexico who record marriages
occurring, and divorces and annulments
granted in each county of New Mexico
will use this form. This form is also

Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 162 / Thursday, August 20, 2020 / Notices
designed to collect counts of monthly
occurrences of births, deaths, and infant
deaths immediately following the
month of occurrence.
The Annual Vital Statistics
Occurrence Report Form collects final
annual counts of marriages and divorces
by month for the United States and for
each State. These final counts are
usually available from State or county
officials about eight months after the
end of the data year. The data are
widely used by government, academic,
private research, and commercial
organizations in tracking changes in
trends of family formation and
dissolution. Respondents for the Annual
Vital Statistics Occurrence Report Form
are registration officials in each State
and Territory, the District of Columbia,
and New York City.
There are no costs to respondents
other than their time.
The total annualized burden hours are
139.
