SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995, (PRA, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) and 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1), all
information collections require approval under the PRA.
As part of our continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent
burdens, we invite the public and other Federal agencies to comment on
new, proposed, revised, and continuing collections of information. This
helps us assess the impact of our information collection requirements
and minimize the public's reporting burden. It also helps the public
understand our information collection requirements and provide the
requested data in the desired format.
We are especially interested in public comment addressing the
following:
(1) Whether or not the collection of information is necessary for
the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including
whether or not the information will have practical utility.
(2) The accuracy of our estimate of the burden for this collection
of information, including the validity of the methodology and
assumptions used.
(3) Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected.
(4) How might the agency 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 response.
Comments that you submit in response to this notice are a matter of
public record. We will include or summarize each comment in our request
to OMB to approve this ICR. Before including your address, phone
number, email address, or other personal identifying information in
your comment, you should be aware that your entire comment--including
your personal identifying information--may be made publicly available
at any time. While you can ask us in your comment to withhold your
personal identifying information from public review, we cannot
guarantee that we will be able to do so.
Abstract: The National Park Service Protection, Interpretation, and
Research in System (54 U.S.C. 100101 et seq.), and the Public Health
Service Act (42 U.S. Code Chapter 6A) give the NPS Office of Public
Health (OPH) broad authority to collect public health data using NPS
Forms 10-685--Concession Employee Illness Report and 10-686--Tour
Vehicle Passenger Illness Report. The forms collect information on the
symptoms, duration, and location of illness which allows public health
workers to respond rapidly and appropriately to address health and
safety incidents within the park system.
The Disease Reporting and Surveillance System (DRSS) provides data
on the symptoms, duration, and location of illness, which allows public
health workers to work rapidly and appropriately to address the
incidents. This data provides parks, OPH staff, managers of park
concessioners, and park clinic concessioners with an early warning
system for potential outbreaks to inform public health interventions.
Title of Collection: Office of Public Health Disease Reporting and
Surveillance Forms.
OMB Control Number: 1024-0286.
