the United States. To meet the needs of
the CryptoNet and Case Surveillance
Program, and the needs of local officials,
the CryptoNet case report form (CRF)
was developed. The CRF includes a set
of data elements that can be used to
identify exposures trends in outbreakand non-outbreak-associated
Cryptosporidium cases, to generate
hypotheses about the sources of
infection in clusters or outbreaks, and to
identify strategies to prevent and control
Cryptosporidium cases, clusters, or
outbreaks.
with individuals ill with
cryptosporidiosis, or their designated
proxy.
CDC requests OMB approval for an
estimated 125 burden hours. Providing
information is voluntary, and there are
no costs to respondents other than their
time.
Data from the CRF will be used by
federal, state, and local public health
officials responsible for conducting
interviews with reported cases of
cryptosporidiosis in their jurisdiction in
order to systemically assess core
exposure elements and risk factors
among cases of cryptosporidiosis.
Collected data will be used by CDC staff
to inform cryptosporidiosis sporadic
case, cluster, and outbreak prevention
and control strategies. CRF data
elements and the CRF were designed for
administration via telephone interviews

Management and Budget (OMB) for each
collection of information they conduct
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.

Proposed Project
National Program of Cancer Registries
Program Evaluation Instrument (NPCR–
PEI) (OMB Control No. 0920–0706, Exp.
01/31/2025)—Revision—National
Center for Chronic Disease Prevention
and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP),
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
CDC is responsible for administering
and monitoring the National Program of
Cancer Registries (NPCR). The NPCR
provides technical assistance and
funding and sets program standards to
assure that complete local, state,
regional, and national cancer incidence
data are available for national and state
cancer control and prevention activities
and health planning activities. The
Program Evaluation Instrument (PEI)
has been used for 31 years to monitor
the performance of NPCR grantees in
meeting the required Program
Standards. CDC currently supports 50
population-based central cancer
registries (CCR) in 46 states, two
territories, the District of Columbia, and
the Pacific Islands. The National Cancer
Institute supports the operations of
CCRs in the four remaining states.
The NCPR–PEI includes questions
about the following categories of registry
operations: (1) Staffing; (2) legislation;
(3) administration; (4) reporting
completeness; (5) data exchange; (6)
data content and format; (7) data quality
assurance; (8) data use; (9) collaborative
relationships; (10) advanced activities;
and (11) survey feedback. Examples of
information that can be obtained from
various questions include, but are not
limited to: (1) number of filled staff fulltime positions by position
responsibility; (2) revision to cancer
reporting legislation; (3) various data
quality control activities; (4) data
collection activities as they relate to
achieving NPCR program standards for
data completeness; and (5) whether
registry data is being used for
comprehensive cancer control programs,
needs assessment/program planning,
clinical studies, or incidence and
mortality estimates.
The NPCR–PEI is needed to receive,
process, evaluate, aggregate, and
disseminate NPCR program information.
The information is used by CDC and the
NPCR-funded registries to monitor
progress toward meeting established
program standards, goals, and
objectives; to evaluate various attributes
of the registries funded by NPCR; and to
respond to data inquiries made by CDC
and other agencies of the federal
government.
The current burden estimate is based
on 50 NPCR awardees. A new project
period begins July 1, 2025. If the
number of awardees changes, then a
change request will be submitted to
accurately reflect the burden hours. CDC
requests OMB approval for an estimated
132 annual burden hours. There are no
costs to respondents other than their
time.
