Background and Brief Description CDC proposes to collect passengerlevel, epidemiologic, demographic, and health status data from state/local Health Departments and maritime operators at the conclusion of contact investigations of individuals believed to have been exposed to a communicable disease during travel. The information requested by CDC would be obtained by the health departments or maritime operators while conducting the contact investigation according to their established policies and procedures, and would be reported to CDC on a voluntary basis. This information will assist CDC in fulfilling its regulatory responsibility to prevent the importation of communicable diseases from foreign countries (42 CFR part 71) and interstate control of communicable diseases in humans (42 CFR part 70). CDC provides state and local health departments and maritime conveyance operators with information to notify and contact individuals, and to further investigate this exposure by contacting others who may have been potentially exposed to disease. However, there currently is no standardized tool or form to collect pertinent information regarding the outcome of such investigations. To address the need to inform CDC of additional actions that may be needed to further protect public health based on the outcome of the contact investigations, CDC has developed forms to assist health departments and maritime conveyance operators in reporting back to CDC. The forms are specific to the nature of the investigation; Tuberculosis (TB), E:\FR\FM\28MYN1.SGM 28MYN1 28837 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 102 / Friday, May 28, 2021 / Notices Measles, and Rubella, or the General form for other diseases of public health concern. The purpose of the forms is the same: To collect information to help CDC quarantine officials to fully understand the extent of disease spread and transmission during travel, and to inform the development of and/or refinement of investigative protocols, aimed at reducing the spread of communicable disease. Respondents are state and local health departments and maritime conveyance operators. Respondents may use these standardized forms to submit data voluntarily to CDC for each individual contacted via a secure means of their choice (e.g., web-based application, fax or email). CDC requests approval for an estimated 1,422 annual burden hours. There is no cost to respondents other than their time to complete the forms and submit the data to CDC.

Background and Brief Description

    CDC proposes to collect passenger-level, epidemiologic, 
demographic, and health status data from state/local Health Departments 
and maritime operators at the conclusion of contact investigations of 
individuals believed to have been exposed to a communicable disease 
during travel. The information requested by CDC would be obtained by 
the health departments or maritime operators while conducting the 
contact investigation according to their established policies and 
procedures, and would be reported to CDC on a voluntary basis. This 
information will assist CDC in fulfilling its regulatory responsibility 
to prevent the importation of communicable diseases from foreign 
countries (42 CFR part 71) and interstate control of communicable 
diseases in humans (42 CFR part 70).
    CDC provides state and local health departments and maritime 
conveyance operators with information to notify and contact 
individuals, and to further investigate this exposure by contacting 
others who may have been potentially exposed to disease. However, there 
currently is no standardized tool or form to collect pertinent 
information regarding the outcome of such investigations.
    To address the need to inform CDC of additional actions that may be 
needed to further protect public health based on the outcome of the 
contact investigations, CDC has developed forms to assist health 
departments and maritime conveyance operators in reporting back to CDC.
