-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), as part
of its continuing effort to reduce public burden and maximize the
utility of government information, invites the general public and other
federal agencies the opportunity to comment on a continuing information
collection, as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. This
notice invites comment on a proposed information collection project
titled Rapid Response Suicide Investigation Data Collection. This data
collection is designed to inform the implementation of prevention
strategies in a state, county, community, or vulnerable population
where a possible suicide cluster or increasing trend has been observed.
DATES: CDC must receive written comments on or before January 27, 2023.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments, identified by Docket No. CDC-2022-
0134 by either of the following methods:
<bullet> Federal eRulemaking Portal: <a href="http://www.regulations.gov">www.regulations.gov</a>. Follow
the instructions for submitting comments.

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
Rapid Response Suicide Investigation Data Collection (OMB Control
No. 0920-1243, Exp. 5/31/2021)--Extension--National Center for Injury
Prevention and Control (NCIPC), Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
CDC is frequently called upon to respond to urgent requests from
one or more external partners (e.g., local, state, territory, and
tribal health authorities; other federal agencies; local and state
leaders; schools; or other partner organizations) to conduct
investigations of suicide. Supporting rapid investigations to inform
the implementation of effective suicide prevention strategies is one of
the most important ways CDC can serve to protect and promote the health
of the public.
Rapid Response Suicide Investigation Data Collections are
specifically designed to inform the implementation of prevention
strategies in a state, county, community, or vulnerable population
where a possible suicide cluster or increasing trend has been observed.
This generic clearance will not be used to conduct research studies or
to collect data designed to draw conclusions about the United States or
areas beyond the defined geographic location or vulnerable population
that is the focus of the investigation. CDC in collaboration with
external partners (e.g., local, state, territory, and tribal health
authorities; other federal agencies; local and state leaders; schools;
or other partner organizations) will identify the respondent universe
for each Rapid Response Suicide Investigation Data Collection. The
respondent universe will be determined based on the information needed
to understand potential suicide clusters, significant increases in
suicidal behavior and suicide, risk and protective factors, and
vulnerable populations in order to inform the implementation of suicide
prevention strategies. When the goal is generalizability, CDC will
submit the sampling methods to OMB as part of the GenIC package.
CDC requests OMB approval for an estimated 1,000 annual burden
hours. There are no costs to respondents other than their time to
participate.
