Proposed Project Performance Monitoring of CDC’s Core State Injury Prevention Program— New—National Center for Injury Prevention and Comtrol (NCIPC), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description CDC’s National Center for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC) requests OMB approval for Performance Monitoring of CDC’s Core State Injury Prevention Program (Core SIPP). This proposed data collection will collect performance monitoring data via a webbased Partners’ Portal. Data is needed to monitor the cooperative agreement program funded under the Core SIPP. Monitoring the impact of populationbased strategies and identifying new insights and innovative solutions to health problems are two of the noted public health activities that all public health systems should undertake. For NCIPC, these objectives cannot be satisfied without the systematic collection of data and information from state health departments. The information collection will enable the accurate, reliable, uniform, and timely submission of each awardee’s progress report and injury indicators, including strategies and performance measures. Information to be collected will provide crucial data for program performance monitoring and provide CDC with the capacity to respond in a timely manner to requests for information about the program from the E:\FR\FM\21DEN1.SGM 21DEN1 72242 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 242 / Tuesday, December 21, 2021 / Notices Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the White House, Congress, and other sources. Information to be collected will also strengthen CDC’s ability to monitor awardee progress, provide data-driven technical assistance, and disseminate the most current surveillance data on unintentional and intentional injuries. The information collection plan proposed here will also generate a variety of routine and customizable reports. State-specific reports will allow each awardee to summarize activities and progress towards meeting strategies and performance measure targets related to the reduction and prevention of unintentional and intentional injuries. NCIPC will also have the capacity to generate reports that describe activities and health outcomes across multiple recipients, which will enable better reporting of trends and provision of technical assistance through linking partners across state health departments and collaborating divisions within CDC. Program recipients will use the information collected to manage and coordinate their activities and to improve their efforts to prevent and control injuries. The Partners’ Portal allows recipients to fulfill their annual reporting obligations efficiently by employing user-friendly, easily accessible web-based instruments to collect necessary information for both progress reports and continuation applications including work plans. This approach enables recipients to save pertinent information from one reporting period to the next and reduces the administrative burden on the annual continuation application and the performance monitoring process. Recipients will report progress and activity information to CDC on an annual schedule. Data will be analyzed using descriptive and summary statistics, as well as qualitative summaries. CDC requests approval for a total of 253 estimated annualized burden hours. There are no costs to respondents other than their time.

Proposed Project

    Performance Monitoring of CDC's Core State Injury Prevention 
Program--New--National Center for Injury Prevention and Comtrol 
(NCIPC), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    CDC's National Center for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC) 
requests OMB approval for Performance Monitoring of CDC's Core State 
Injury Prevention Program (Core SIPP). This proposed data collection 
will collect performance monitoring data via a web-based Partners' 
Portal. Data is needed to monitor the cooperative agreement program 
funded under the Core SIPP.
    Monitoring the impact of population-based strategies and 
identifying new insights and innovative solutions to health problems 
are two of the noted public health activities that all public health 
systems should undertake. For NCIPC, these objectives cannot be 
satisfied without the systematic collection of data and information 
from state health departments. The information collection will enable 
the accurate, reliable, uniform, and timely submission of each 
awardee's progress report and injury indicators, including strategies 
and performance measures.
    Information to be collected will provide crucial data for program 
performance monitoring and provide CDC with the capacity to respond in 
a timely manner to requests for information about the program from the

Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the White House, 
Congress, and other sources. Information to be collected will also 
strengthen CDC's ability to monitor awardee progress, provide data-
driven technical assistance, and disseminate the most current 
surveillance data on unintentional and intentional injuries. The 
information collection plan proposed here will also generate a variety 
of routine and customizable reports. State-specific reports will allow 
each awardee to summarize activities and progress towards meeting 
strategies and performance measure targets related to the reduction and 
prevention of unintentional and intentional injuries. NCIPC will also 
have the capacity to generate reports that describe activities and 
health outcomes across multiple recipients, which will enable better 
reporting of trends and provision of technical assistance through 
linking partners across state health departments and collaborating 
divisions within CDC.
    Program recipients will use the information collected to manage and 
coordinate their activities and to improve their efforts to prevent and 
control injuries. The Partners' Portal allows recipients to fulfill 
their annual reporting obligations efficiently by employing user-
friendly, easily accessible web-based instruments to collect necessary 
information for both progress reports and continuation applications 
including work plans. This approach enables recipients to save

the administrative burden on the annual continuation application and 
the performance monitoring process.
    Recipients will report progress and activity information to CDC on 
an annual schedule. Data will be analyzed using descriptive and summary 
statistics, as well as qualitative summaries. CDC requests approval for 
a total of 253 estimated annualized burden hours. There are no costs to 
respondents other than their time.
