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 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
Resources and Services Database of the National Prevention
Information Network (NPIN) (OMB Control No. 0920-0255, Exp. 01/31/
2023)--Revision--National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis,
Sexually Transmitted Diseases, and Tuberculosis Prevention (NCHHSTP),
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The CDC is requesting a Revision and three-year approval for
Resources and Services Database of the National Prevention Information
Network (NPIN) (OMB Control No. 0920-0255). Revisions include, minor
formatting, changes to the surveys involving the decrease in the number
of services collected, and changes to the NPIN Questionnaire for new
organizations and for annual updates to reflect the changes and
modernize the look.
NPIN is a critical member of the network of government agencies,
community organizations, businesses, health professionals, educators,
and human services providers that educate the American public about the
grave threat to public health posed by HIV/AIDS, viral hepatitis, STDs,
and TB, and provides services for persons infected with human
immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
The NPIN Resources and Services Database contains entries on
approximately 10,700 organizations and is the most comprehensive
listing of HIV/AIDS, viral hepatitis, STD, and TB resources and
services available throughout the country. The American public can also
access the NPIN Resources and Services database through the NPIN
website. More than 1,668,000 unique visitors and more than 3,000,000
page views are recorded annually.
To accomplish CDC's goal of continuing efforts to maintain an up-
to-date, comprehensive database, NPIN plans each year to add up to 800
newly identified organizations and to verify those organizations
currently described in the NPIN Resources and Services Database each
year. Organizations with access to the internet will be given the
option to complete and submit an electronic version of the
questionnaire by visiting the NPIN website.
CDC requests OMB approval for an estimated 1,164 annual burden
hours. There are no costs to respondents other than their time to
participate.
