different types of feedstock material to
be deposited on to various substrates—
metals, metal alloys, ceramics, and
plastics. The process involves spraying
a liquid or molten metal coating product
under pressure onto a surface where it
solidifies and forms a solid coating. The
coating material can be pure metals,
metal alloys, carbides, oxides, ceramics,
and ceramic metals in wire or powder
form that will not decompose when
melted. Although TSC technology has
been around for decades, recently it has
been refined and optimized to impart
new properties and functionalities to
the coatings, applied through numerous
processes such as flame-, cold-, plasma, and electric arc-spraying, arising from
the different combinations of sources of
thermal and kinetic energy, form and
composition of the feedstock material
and other system configurations. TSC
processes are relatively simple to use,
economical, and have been applied to
almost all industrial sectors such as
automotive, aerospace, machine shops,
electronics, medical, shipyards, and
printing. Important uses include
coatings for wear prevention, repair,
restoration, thermal insulation/
conduction, corrosion/oxidation
resistance, seals, and decoration.
intervention; and (3) identify thermal
spray coating facilities willing to
participate in future NIOSH exposure
and health research.
The burden hours are estimated based
on limited pilot testing conducted
internally using the survey instrument
and previous pilot testing done using a
similar survey instrument. In these pilot
tests, the amount of time for instruction
review, collection of mock information,
and the survey completion was between
10–30 minutes. The median time of 20
minutes was used to estimate annual
burden hours. Currently, the total
number of thermal spray coating
businesses in the United States is
unknown. In 2004, the Air Resources
Board (ARB) in California
Environmental Protection Agency
conducted the Thermal Spraying
Facility Survey of facilities performing
thermal spray coating throughout
California and reported 97 companies
that potentially used TSC. Based on the
California ARB report, we estimated
approximately 5,000 thermal spray
coating businesses nationwide. CDC
requests OMB approval for an estimated
1,667 annual burden hours. There are
no costs to respondents other than their
time to participate.
TSC is a fast-growing and emerging
industry, but generates exposures that
are known to be hazardous in other
settings. However, effects of TSC
processes, quantitative exposures, and
subsequent health effects remain mostly
unknown because of paucity of
epidemiologic and exposure studies.
Limited data on exposures of workers
engaged in TSC and associated
operations and personal
communications with industrial
hygienists in this industry suggests
exposures can greatly exceed the current
occupational exposure limits, but the
prevalence of respiratory abnormalities
including occupational asthma and
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
in this population remains unknown. In
addition, many workplaces conduct
TSC work manually or semiautomatically, and some TSC tasks may
not be easily amenable to installation of
ventilation controls (e.g., during spraycoating of parts with wide surface area).
The purpose of the proposed data
collection is to conduct a survey of
thermal spray coating facilities to: (1)
better understand work practices and
controls related to metals, particles, and
gases generated during thermal spray
coating; (2) identify areas for potential

2023 to obtain comments from the
public and affected agencies. CDC
received three comments 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

(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
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses; and

Proposed Project
National Electronic Health Records
Survey (NEHRS) (OMB Control No.
0920–1015)—Reinstatement—National
Center for Health Statistics (NCHS),
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The National Center for Health
Statistics (NCHS) requests a
Reinstatement of a previously approved
collection titled the National Electronic
Health Records Survey (NEHRS) for a
three-year clearance. NCHS is
requesting approval to collect data for
2024, 2025, and 2026 NEHRS cohorts.
NEHRS is a national survey of officebased physicians conducted by NCHS,
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC). NEHRS is sponsored
by the Office of the National
Coordinator for Health Information
Technology (ONC), Department of
Health and Human Services (HHS). The
survey is conducted under the authority
of Section 306 of the Public Health
Service Act (42 U.S.C. 242k).
Although there are other surveys that
collect information from United States
office-based physicians, NEHRS is
unique in that it provides nationally
representative information about the use
of electronic health records (EHR) and
other health information technologies.
Additional justifications for conducting
future rounds of NEHRS include the
need for more complete data to study:
(1) documentation of social needs; (2)
trends in interoperability; (3) the
exchange of patient health information
with public health agencies; and (4) the
use of telemedicine technology. The
new data collections will reestablish
trends of patient health information
exchange with public health agencies,
telemedicine technology use, as well as
the evolving engagement in
interoperability; particularly with
respect to electronically sending,
receiving, integrating, and searching for
patient health information through these
systems. Improving interoperability of
electronic health information is a major
priority for ONC, and NEHRS can
provide ONC with data on physicians’
experience with interoperability.
CDC requests OMB approval for an
estimated 5,544 annual burden hours.
There is no cost to respondents other
than their time.
