CDC will accept all comments for this
proposed information collection project.
The Office of Management and Budget
is particularly interested in comments
that:
(a) 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;
(b) Evaluate the accuracy of the
agencies’ estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
(c) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected;
(d) 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 submission of
responses; and
(e) Assess information collection
costs.

Proposed Project
National Youth Tobacco Survey 2021–
2023 (OMB Control No. 0920–0621, Exp.
4/30/2021)—Revision—National Center
for Chronic Disease Prevention and
Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC)
Background and Brief Description
Tobacco use is the leading cause of
preventable disease and death in the
United States, and nearly all tobacco use
begins during youth and young
adulthood. A limited number of health
risk behaviors, including tobacco use,
account for the overwhelming majority
of immediate and long-term sources of
morbidity and mortality. Because many
health risk behaviors are established
during adolescence, there is a critical
need for public health programs
directed towards youth, and for
information to support these programs.
Since 2004, the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC) has
periodically collected information about
tobacco use among adolescents
(National Youth Tobacco Survey
(NYTS) 2004, 2006, 2009, 2011, 2012,
2013–2020, OMB Control No. 0920–
0621, Exp. 04/30/2021). This
surveillance activity builds on previous
surveys funded by the American Legacy
Foundation in 1999, 2000, and 2002.
At present, the NYTS is the most
comprehensive source of nationally
representative tobacco data among
students in grades 9–12. Moreover, the
NYTS is the only source of such data for
students in grades 6–8. The NYTS has
provided national estimates of tobacco
use behaviors, information about
PO 00000

Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

exposure to pro- and anti-tobacco
influences, and information about racial
and ethnic disparities in tobacco-related
topics. Information collected through
the NYTS is used to identify trends over
time, to inform the development of
tobacco cessation programs for youth,
and to evaluate the effectiveness of
existing interventions and programs.
CDC plans to request OMB approval
to conduct additional cycles of the
NYTS in 2021, 2022, and 2023. The
survey will be conducted among
nationally representative samples of
students attending public and private
schools in grades 6–12 and will be
administered to students as a digitallybased survey programmed onto tablets.
Information supporting the NYTS also
will be collected from state-, district-,
and school-level administrators and
teachers. During the 2021–2023
timeframe, changes will be incorporated
that reflect CDC’s ongoing collaboration
with FDA and the need to measure
progress toward meeting strategic goals
established by the Family Smoking
Prevention and Tobacco Control Act.
Information collection will occur
annually and may include a number of
new questions, as well as increased
representation of minority youth.
The survey will examine the
following topics: Use of e-cigarettes,
cigarettes, cigars, smokeless tobacco,
hookahs, roll-your own-cigarettes,
pipes, snus, dissolvable tobacco, bidis,
heated tobacco products, and nicotine
pouches; knowledge and attitudes;
media and advertising; access to tobacco
products and enforcement of restrictions
on access; secondhand smoke and ecigarette aerosol exposure; provision of
school- and community-based
interventions, and cessation.
Results of the NYTS will continue to
be used to inform and evaluate the
National Comprehensive Tobacco
Control Program; provide data to inform
the Department of Health and Human
Service’s Tobacco Control Strategic
Action Plan, and provide national
benchmark data for state-level Youth
Tobacco Surveys. Information collected
through the NYTS also is expected to
provide multiple measures and data for
monitoring progress on seven tobaccorelated objectives for Healthy People
2030.
OMB approval will be requested for
three years. There are no costs to
respondents other than their time. The
total annualized burden is estimated to
be 18,733 hours.

related crashes is one of the top 10
changes needed to reduce transportation
accidents and save lives identified by
the National Transportation Safety
Board (NTSB) and a National
Occupational Research Agenda (NORA)
priority. Fatigue is a preventable cause
of crashes.
The North American Fatigue
Management Program (NAFMP) was
developed by the FMCSA, Transport
Canada, and other entities to address
commercial motor vehicle (CMV) driver
fatigue through a comprehensive
approach that delivers prevention
information to carriers, dispatchers,
drivers, and family members. In 2015,
the National Academy of Sciences
published the report ‘‘Commercial
motor vehicle driver fatigue, long-term
health, and highway safety research
needs’’ that identified the need for fully
evaluating the NAFMP so that
recommendations for implementation of
NAFMP are supported by scientific
evidence. NIOSH is collaborating with
the FMCSA to ensure the success of the
proposed study.
NIOSH will recruit two commercial
vehicle carriers, and CMV drivers,
hereafter referred to as ‘‘drivers’’,
employed by those carriers. Data will be
collected during drivers’ application to
participate in the study, briefing
session, study participation, and
debriefing session. Data collection will
primarily focus on driving performance,
sleep, and sleepiness. These outcomes
will be compared between pre-rollout of
the NAFMP (in which drivers will
operate as they did before their
participation in the study) and after the
rollout of the NAFMP training and
education modules (in which drivers
and managers will operate with
increased knowledge, strategies, and
techniques to reduce their fatigue). All
drivers interested in participating in the
study may complete the application. A
briefing session will be scheduled with
drivers who are found eligible for the
study. During the briefing session,
