ACTION: Notice with comment period.
AGENCY:
The Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC), as part of
its continuing effort to reduce public
burden and maximize the utility of
government information, invites the
general public and other federal
agencies the opportunity to comment on
a proposed information collection, as
required by the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995. This notice invites
comment on a proposed information
collection project titled 2024 Marburg
Traveler Monitoring Assessment. This
information collection is intended to
determine the number of travelers
coming to the United States from
Rwanda, where a Marburg outbreak is
occurring, that are enrolled by
jurisdictions into monitoring, if
recommended, and the proportion of
travelers that completed monitoring.

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

or sponsor. In addition, the PRA also
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.

Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious
Diseases (NCEZID), Division of Global
Migration Health (DGMH) requests an
Emergency approval for a New
information collection. Section 361 of
the Public Health Service (PHS) Act (42
U.S.C. 264) authorizes the Secretary of
Health and Human Services to make
and enforce regulations necessary to
prevent the introduction, transmission
or spread of communicable diseases
from foreign countries into the United
States. Under its delegated authority,
DGMH works to fulfill this
responsibility through a variety of
activities, including the operation of
Quarantine Stations at ports of entry
and administration of foreign quarantine
regulations; 42 Code of Federal
Regulation part 71, specifically 42 CFR
71.20 Public health prevention
measures to detect communicable
disease. This information collection
concerns CDC’s statutory and regulatory
authority related to conducting public
health screening of travelers upon
arrival to the United States and
assessing individual travelers for public
health risk following a report of illness
from a conveyance.
The purpose of this information
collection is to inform CDC and
interagency decision makers on state/
local health department activities
related to travelers coming from areas
affected by an Marburg outbreak
originating in Rwanda. This information
will be used to: (1) gather feedback from
state and local health department
partners on CDC’s interim guidance and
post-arrival management of travelers; (2)
assess the quality of contact information
provided to states by determining the
proportion of travelers that state and
local health departments were able to
contact for recommended assessment
and monitoring; and (3) inform the
development of future guidance and
recommendations for post-arrival
traveler management during Marburg
outbreaks abroad.
CDC collects international travelers’
contact information under authorities in
the Interim Final Rule: Control of
Communicable Diseases: Foreign
Quarantine and CDC’s Order
Requirement for Airlines and Operators
to Collect and Transmit Designated
Information for Passengers and Crew
Arriving Into the United States;
Requirement for Passengers to Provide
Designated Information. Traveler
contact information is sent to CDC
though an existing data-sharing
infrastructure in place between the
United States Department of Homeland
Security (DHS) and HHS/CDC and
approved for in OMB Control Number
0920–1354. Contact information for
travelers who have been to an area
affected by the outbreak during the 21
days prior to arrival will be confirmed
at the port of entry. CDC will share
contact information for these travelers
with state and local health departments
so that they can do possible public
health follow up, including public
health assessment of exposure risk and
monitoring for Marburg symptoms, and
education to travelers. These public
health interventions will help state and
local health departments determine the
appropriate level of follow needed
based on the traveler’s level of risk and
rapidly identify any travelers with
symptoms that could which travelers
may need to be prioritized for more
targeted public health measures, such as
quarantine, due to a higher risk of
exposure to Marburg.
CDC is currently sharing contact
information and public health
assessment of exposure risk to Marburg
for travelers with state and local health
departments through existing datasharing infrastructure. State and local
health departments utilize the contact
information provided by CDC to
prioritize and identify the level of
follow up needed based on the level of
risk of exposure to Marburg and
determine additional if additional
targeted public health measures are
necessary. State/local health department
partners are contacting travelers in order
to determine if they are symptomatic
and require additional screening for
possible Marburg infection. The purpose
of this evaluation will be to gather
feedback from state and local health
departments regarding traveler
monitoring activities and determine the
usability of contact information and
public health risk assessment
information shared by CDC. A one-time
survey at the end of the response will
collect information related to resources
needed by health department for this
response.
CDC requests OMB approval for an
estimated 630 annual burden hours.
There is no cost to respondents other
than their time to participate.
