Act (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35). To request a copy of these requests, call
(404) 639-7570 or send an email to [email protected]. Send written comments
to CDC Desk Officer, Office of Management and Budget, Washington, DC or

Proposed Project
Monitoring and Reporting System for Chronic Disease Prevention and
Control Programs (OMB No. 0920-0870, exp. 11/30/2013)--Revision--
National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion
(NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
CDC requests OMB approval to continue the collection of information
from tobacco control program awardees funded through cooperative
agreement
[[Page 60284]]
DP09-901, Collaborative Chronic Disease, Health Promotion, and
Surveillance Program Announcement: Healthy Communities, Tobacco
Control, Diabetes Prevention and Control, and Behavioral Risk Factor
Surveillance System. These cooperative agreements will end on March 28,
2014, and final reports on awardee activities are due to CDC
approximately 90 days after the end of the funding period. OMB approval
is requested for one year to allow submission of progress reports
relating to the final year of funding under the current cooperative
agreement.
Fifty-three awardees which consist of state departments of health
in the 50 States, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin
Islands will continue to submit semi-annual progress reports through a
Web-based management information system (MIS). There are no changes to
the number of tobacco control program respondents, the content of the
information collection, the frequency of information collection, or the
estimated burden per response. However, the total estimated burden
hours will decrease due to discontinuation of reporting requirements
for three program components that were originally funded under the
DP09-901 cooperative agreement: diabetes prevention and control, state
BRFSS activities, and Healthy Communities. Due to organizational and
funding changes within CDC, funding for these program components was
discontinued under the DP09-901 cooperative agreement and semi-annual
reports are no longer required.
CDC will continue to collect information about each awardee's
tobacco control objectives, planning, activities, resources,
partnerships, strategies, and progress toward meeting objectives.
Awardees will use the information reported through the electronic MIS
to manage and coordinate their activities and to improve their efforts.
CDC will use the information reported through the MIS to document and
monitor each awardee's progress and to make adjustments, as needed, in
the type and level of technical assistance provided to them. The
information collection allows CDC to oversee the use of federal funds,
and identify and disseminate information about successful strategies
implemented by awardees. CDC also uses the information to respond to
Congressional and stakeholder inquiries about awardee activities,
program implementation, and program impact.
Progress reporting through the MIS is required for cooperative
agreement awardees. There are no costs to respondents other than their
time. The total estimated burden hours are 636.
