Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork
Reduction Act Review
In accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
has submitted the information
collection request (ICR) titled
‘‘Distribution of Traceable Opioid
Material Kits (TOM Kits) across U.S.
and International Laboratories’’ to the
Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for review and approval. CDC
previously published a ‘‘Proposed Data
Collection Submitted for Public
Comment and Recommendations’’
notice on 09/16/2022 to obtain
comments from the public and affected
agencies. CDC received one comment
related to the previous notice. This
notice serves to allow an additional 30
days for public and affected agency
comments.
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

Proposed Project
Distribution of Traceable Opioid
Material Kits (TOM Kits) across U.S.
and International Laboratories (OMB
Control No. 0920–1313, expiration date
12/31/2022)—Revision—National
Center for Environmental Health
(NCEH), Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
In response to the Health and Human
Services (HHS) Acting Secretary’s 2017
and ongoing public health emergency
declaration on opioids, the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
has led the development of Traceable
Opioid Material Kits (TOM Kits) to
support detection of emerging opioids.
CDC maintains the contents of the TOM
Kits based on new needs identified, in
part, through the U.S. Drug Enforcement
Agency (DEA) Emerging Threat Reports.
For example, the DEA 2018 data
indicated that fentanyl and fentanylrelated compounds accounted for
approximately 76 percent of their opioid
identifications.
The CDC is requesting a three-year
Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA)
clearance for a revision of this ICR
(formerly known as ‘‘Distribution of
Traceable Opioid Material Kits [TOM
Kits] across U.S. Laboratories’’)(OMB
Control No. 0920–1313). As part of the
proposed revisions, CDC will be
expanding its program to include a new
line of TOM Kits, the Emerging Drug
Panel (EDP) Kits. For the EDP Kits, nonopioid compounds will be identified
and updated by searching recent lists
put out by the DEA and the Center for
PO 00000
Frm 00042
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Forensic Science Research and
Education (CFSRE). These lists provide
data on all classes of drugs that were
recently identified in the field and
provide recommendations on which
drugs should be included in testing.
They are updated several times a year
and keep up with the changing drug
landscape in the United States. For the
current round, EDP Kits will include
synthetic cannabinoids, stimulants,
hallucinogens, and benzodiazepines.
CDC will distribute TOM Kits through
a single vendor, which will manufacture
the test kits. The CDC vendor will
distribute these kits to domestic
laboratories, as previously approved
under CDC contract. As a revision, the
CDC vendor will distribute these test
kits to international laboratories in
partnership with the United Nations
and under a separate contract with the
International Narcotics Control Board
(INCB) (hereafter, collectively coined
the ‘‘UN’’). The UN, and not the CDC,
is paying the vendor to ship the kits to
international requesters.
TOM Kits are not intended for
diagnostic use and are free to domestic
and international laboratories in the
public, private, clinical, law
enforcement, research, and public
health domains. The CDC vendor
collects both application and laboratory
information on domestic laboratories
when they apply for test kits.
International laboratories that apply for
test kits through the UN will be directed
to complete and share their laboratory
information with the vendor, but not
with the CDC. This information is used
to prioritize which laboratories will
receive kits when quantities are limited.
The brief web-based surveys will allow
the CDC to: (1) determine what service
the recipient laboratory performs; and to
(2) equitably distribute test kits based on
the analysis techniques and matrices
used by the recipient laboratory.
Over the past three years, CDC has
received 1,472 requests from interested
laboratories (approximately 490 requests
per year) and has distributed 3,007 TOM
Kits. Based on this experience and with
the addition of EDP Kits, we anticipate
that up to 600 domestic laboratories will
request test kits per year. Given that
each application will take six minutes,
the annual time burden for 600
domestic laboratories will be 60 hours.
CDC will add 20 additional annual
burden hours for the international
distribution of test kits. We estimate that
300 international partner laboratories
will apply for test kits per year with the
UN, which in turn will direct these
laboratories to complete the brief fourminute survey on laboratory
information on the CDC vendor website.

Data Collection Tool for State Offices of
Rural Health Grant Program, OMB No.
0915–0322—Extension.
Abstract: The HRSA, Federal Office of
Rural Health Policy (FORHP), is
requesting OMB approval to continue
use of a Technical Assistance (TA) Data
Form for the State Offices of Rural
Health (SORH) Grant program
established by section 338J of the Public
Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 254r). In
its authorizing language (sec. 711 of the
Social Security Act [42 U.S.C. 912]),
Congress charged FORHP with
administering grants, cooperative
agreements, and contracts to provide TA
and other activities as necessary to
support activities related to improving
health care in rural areas. The mission
of FORHP is to sustain and improve
access to quality health care services for
rural communities. This electronic form
is used to collect information from
SORH grantees on the amount of direct
TA they provide to clients within their
state.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: FORHP seeks to continue
gathering information from grantees on
their efforts to provide TA to clients
PO 00000
Number of
responses per
respondent
within their state. SORH grantees
submit a TA Report that includes: (1)
the total number of TA encounters
provided directly by the grantee, and (2)
the total number of unduplicated clients
that received direct TA from the grantee.
These measures will continue in these
three categories: (1) information
disseminated, (2) information created,
and (3) collaborative efforts by (a) topic
area and (b) type of audience. These
measures are used to obtain an accurate
depiction of the breadth of SORH work
based on recommendations from the
grantees. Submission of the TA Report
is submitted via the HRSA Electronic
Handbook no later than 60 days after the
end of each 12-month budget period.
Grant dollars are awarded annually;
therefore, this information is needed
annually by the program in order to
measure effective use of grant dollars
consistently among all the grantees.
Likely Respondents: Fifty SORH
award recipients.
Burden Statement: Burden in this
context means the time expended by
persons to generate, maintain, retain,
disclose, or provide the information
requested. This includes the time
needed to review instructions; to
develop, acquire, install, and utilize
technology and systems for the purpose
of collecting, validating, and verifying
information, processing and
maintaining information, and disclosing
and providing information; to train
personnel and to be able to respond to
a collection of information; to search
data sources; to complete and review
the collection of information; and to
transmit or otherwise disclose the
information. The total annual burden
hours estimated for this ICR are
summarized in the table below.
