SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA)
(44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), Federal agencies
must obtain approval from the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for each

requires Federal agencies to provide a
60-day notice in the Federal Register
concerning each proposed collection of
information, including each new
proposed collection, each proposed

extension of existing collection of
information, and each reinstatement of
previously approved information
collection before submitting the
collection to the OMB for approval. To
comply with this requirement, we are
publishing this notice of a proposed
data collection as described below.
The OMB is particularly interested in
comments that will help:
1. 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;
2. Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
3. Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected;
4. 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 submissions
of responses; and
5. Assess information collection costs.

Healthcare Response and Prevention
Training Curriculum for Health
Departments—New—National Center
for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious
Disease (NCEZID), Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
CDC funds Healthcare-Associated

Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 116 / Friday, June 16, 2023 / Notices
Funding is awarded through the
Epidemiology and Laboratory
cooperative agreements (ELC), and is
intended to provide critical resources to
recipients in support of a broad range of
healthcare infection prevention and
control and epidemiologic surveillance
activities to detect, monitor, mitigate,
and prevent the spread of HAI/AR in
healthcare settings.
HAI/AR programs have experienced
an increase in program size and scope
through COVID–19 supplemental funds.
To better support the growing programs,
CDC has developed high-priority
trainings requested by the health
department programs with the goal of
strengthening public health workforce
capacity to prevent and respond to HAI/
AR outbreaks in healthcare settings,
including preventing the spread of
SARS-CoV–2. The proposed training
evaluation will be used to assess
whether the CDC-developed trainings
are reaching the intended audience and
achieving the intended goal of
strengthening public health workforce
capacity to prevent and respond to HAI/
AR outbreaks, including COVID–19, at
the individual trainee and program
level.
CDC requests OMB approval for an
estimated 316 annual burden hours.
There is no cost to respondents other
than their time to participate.
