Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork Reduction Act Review
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has submitted
the following information collection request to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval in accordance with
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. The notice for the proposed
information collection is published to obtain comments from the public
and affected agencies.
Written comments and suggestions from the public and affected
agencies concerning the proposed collection of information are
encouraged. Your comments should address any of the following: (a)
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; (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
(e) Assess information collection costs.
To request additional information on the proposed project or to
obtain a copy of the information collection plan and instruments, call

Proposed Project
Monitoring and Reporting for the Core State Violence and Injury
Prevention Program Cooperative Agreement--New--National Center for
Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC), Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) seeks new OMB
approval to collect information from awardees funded under the Core
State Violence and Injury Prevention Program cooperative agreement
program (Core SVIPP). CDC's National Center for Injury Prevention and
Control (NCIPC) is committed to working with its partners to promote
action that reduces injuries, violence, and disabilities, by providing
leadership in identifying priorities, promoting prevention strategies,
developing useful tools, and monitoring the effectiveness of Injury and
Violence Prevention (IVP) program activities. Unintentional and
violence-related injuries and their consequences are the leading causes
of death for the first four decades of life, regardless of gender,
race, or socioeconomic status.
More than 192,000 individuals in the United States die each year as
a result of unintentional injuries and violence, and more than 31
million others suffer non-fatal injuries requiring emergency department
visits each year. Support
[[Page 11569]]
and guidance for programs addressing IVP have been provided through
cooperative agreement funding and technical assistance administered by
NCIPC. Awardees report progress and activity information to NCIPC on an
annual schedule using three documents: Annual Progress Report,
Evaluation and Performance Management Plan, and Injury Indicator
Spreadsheet. Burden is expected to vary based on awardee funding type.
For example all awardees who successfully compete will be funded for
the BASE component. However, awardees will also have the opportunity to
compete to be funded for one or both of the Enhanced components. It is
expected that those funded for Enhanced components will have a greater
burden, given the requirement to report on more domains of activity.
Information to be collected will provide crucial data for program
performance monitoring and provide CDC with the capacity to respond in
a timely manner to requests for information about the program from the
Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the White House,
Congress, and other sources. Information to be collected will also
strengthen CDC's ability to monitor awardee progress, provide data-
driven technical assistance, and disseminate the most current
surveillance data on unintentional and intentional injuries.
The total estimated annualized burden for this collection is 3,120
hours. OMB approval is requested for three years. The only cost to
respondents will be time spent on responding to the progress reports.
