Background and Brief Description

    Community water fluoridation is the process of adjusting the 
fluoride concentration of a community water system (CWS) to the level 
beneficial for prevention of dental caries as recommended by the U.S. 
Public Health Service (PHS). Community water fluoridation is a major 
factor contributing to the large decline in caries in the U.S. in the 
past 75 years and is recognized as one of 10 great public health 
achievements of the twentieth century. Community water fluoridation 
reduces dental caries by 25% and is a safe and the cost-effective way 
to deliver fluoride to people of all ages, regardless of education and 
income level. It is especially important for populations with limited 
access to preventive dental measures.
    CDC is authorized to collect the information under the U.S. Public 
Health Service Act. This data collection aligns with CDC's strategy to 
use public health surveillance to inform programs and policies to 
improve the oral health of the nation by reducing disparities and

Respondents to the information collection are State fluoridation

dental director or drinking water administrator. State participation in 
the data collection is voluntary.
    CDC requests OMB approval for an estimated 2,824 annual burden 
hours. There is no cost to respondents other than their time to 
participate.
