Rapid Response Suicide Investigation
Data Collection (OMB Control No.

Extension—National Center for Injury
Prevention and Control (NCIPC),
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
CDC is frequently called upon to
respond to urgent requests from one or
more external partners (e.g., local, state,
territory, and tribal health authorities;
other federal agencies; local and state
leaders; schools; or other partner
organizations) to conduct investigations
of suicide. Supporting rapid
investigations to inform the
implementation of effective suicide
prevention strategies is one of the most
73003
schools; or other partner organizations)
will identify the respondent universe for
each Rapid Response Suicide
Investigation Data Collection. The
respondent universe will be determined
based on the information needed to
understand potential suicide clusters,
significant increases in suicidal
behavior and suicide, risk and
protective factors, and vulnerable
populations in order to inform the
implementation of suicide prevention
strategies. When the goal is
generalizability, CDC will submit the
sampling methods to OMB as part of the
GenIC package.
CDC requests OMB approval for an
estimated 1,000 annual burden hours.
There are no costs to respondents other
than their time to participate.
important ways CDC can serve to
protect and promote the health of the
public.
Rapid Response Suicide Investigation
Data Collections are specifically
designed to inform the implementation
of prevention strategies in a state,
county, community, or vulnerable
population where a possible suicide
cluster or increasing trend has been
observed. This generic clearance will
not be used to conduct research studies
or to collect data designed to draw
conclusions about the United States or
areas beyond the defined geographic
location or vulnerable population that is
the focus of the investigation. CDC in

agencies; local and state leaders;

technical functions required to
implement and effectively manage the
new compensation program. Key
functions of the Advisory Board include
providing advice on the development of
probability of causation guidelines that
have been promulgated by the
Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS) as a final rule; advice on
methods of dose reconstruction, which
have also been promulgated by HHS as
a final rule; advice on the scientific
validity and quality of dose estimation
and reconstruction efforts being
performed for purposes of the
compensation program; and advice on
petitions to add classes of workers to the
Special Exposure Cohort (SEC). In
December 2000, the President delegated
responsibility for funding, staffing, and
operating the Advisory Board to HHS,
which subsequently delegated this
authority to CDC. NIOSH implements
this responsibility for CDC.
The Advisory Board’s charter was
issued on August 3, 2001, renewed at
appropriate intervals, and rechartered
under Executive Order 13889 on March
22, 2022, and will terminate on March
22, 2024.
Purpose: The Advisory Board is
charged with (a) providing advice to the
Secretary, HHS, on the development of

validity and quality of dose
reconstruction efforts performed for this
program; and (c) upon request by the
Secretary, HHS, advising the Secretary
on whether there is a class of employees
at any Department of Energy facility
who were exposed to radiation but for
whom it is not feasible to estimate their
radiation dose, and on whether there is
reasonable likelihood that such
radiation doses may have endangered
the health of members of this class. SPR
is responsible for overseeing, tracking,
and participating in the reviews of all
procedures used in the dose
reconstruction process by the NIOSH
Division of Compensation Analysis and
Support (DCAS) and its dose
reconstruction contractor (Oak Ridge
Associated Universities—ORAU).
Matters To Be Considered: The agenda
will include discussions on the
following: (a) Technical guidance
documents for dose reconstruction, the
site profile for Grand Junction facilities,
and a case review related to the Paducah
Gaseous Diffusion Plant; (b) Newly
issued SC&A reviews; and (c)
Preparation for the April 2023 full
ABRWH meeting. Agenda items are
subject to change as priorities dictate.

The Administration for
Children and Families (ACF) is
proposing a new data collection activity
for the Formative Evaluation of the
Demonstration Grants to Strengthen the
Response to Victims of Human
Trafficking in Native Communities
(VHT–NC) Program. The overarching
goals of the formative evaluation are to
understand the context in which the
VHT–NC projects are implemented, the
projects’ goals, and the paths they take
to achieve their goals. The proposed
data collection will include semistructured interviews with project staff,
key partners, and project participants.
DATES: Comments due within 30 days of
publication. OMB must make a decision
about the collection of information
between 30 and 60 days after
publication of this document in the
Federal Register. Therefore, a comment
is best assured of having its full effect
if OMB receives it within 30 days of
publication.
ADDRESSES: Written comments and
recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be sent
within 30 days of publication of this
notice to www.reginfo.gov/public/do/
PRAMain. Find this particular
information collection by selecting
‘‘Currently under 30-day Review—Open
for Public Comments’’ or by using the
search function. You can also obtain
copies of the proposed collection of
information by emailing
OPREinfocollection@acf.hhs.gov.
Identify all requests by the title of the
information collection.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: In 2020, ACF’s Office on
Trafficking in Persons issued six VHT–
NC demonstration grants to fund
projects to build, expand, and sustain
organizational and community capacity
to deliver services to Native Americans
(i.e., American Indians, Alaska Natives,
Native Hawaiians, and/or Pacific
Islanders) who have experienced human
trafficking through the provision of
direct services, assistance, and referrals.
The purpose of the proposed data
collection is to obtain a comprehensive
understanding of the VHT–NC projects
and their communities, including
implementation strengths and
challenges. A primary aim is to conduct
a participatory and culturally
responsive formative evaluation that is
informed by and respects the
knowledge, values, and traditions of the
communities implementing the VHT–
NC projects.
The proposed data collection will
include semi-structured interviews with
VHT–NC project staff, key project
partners, and project participants
