Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork Reduction Act Review
In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has submitted the information
collection request titled ``Awardee Lead Profile Assessment (ALPA)'' to
the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval. CDC
previously published a ``Proposed Data Collection Submitted for Public
Comment and Recommendations'' notice on December 20, 2022, to obtain
comments from the public and affected agencies. CDC did not receive
comments related to the previous notice. This notice serves to allow an
additional 30 days for public and affected agency comments.
CDC will accept all comments for this proposed information
collection project. The Office of Management and Budget is particularly
interested in comments that:
(a) Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of the
[[Page 19308]]
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
(404) 639-7570. Comments and recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of
this notice to <a href="http://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain">www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain</a>. Find this particular
information collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day Review--
Open for Public Comments'' or by using the search function. Direct
written comments and/or suggestions regarding the items contained in
this notice to the Attention: CDC Desk Officer, Office of Management
and Budget, 725 17th Street NW, Washington, DC 20503 or by fax to (202)
395-5806. Provide written comments within 30 days of notice
publication.
Proposed Project
Awardee Lead Profile Assessment (ALPA) (OMB Control No. 0920-1215,
Exp. 03/31/2024)--Revision--National Center for Environmental Health
(NCEH), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is requesting
Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) clearance for a three-year revised
Information Collection Request (ICR) titled ``Awardee Lead Profile
Assessment (ALPA)'' (OMB Control No. 0920-1215; Exp. 03/31/2024). The
goal of this ICR is to build on the CDC's existing childhood lead
poisoning prevention program. CDC requires that ongoing and new CDC
Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Programs (CLPPPs), including the
FY21 ``Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention and Surveillance of Blood
Lead Levels in Children'' (CDC-RFA-EH21-2102), complete the ALPA
annually. This annual information collection will be used to identify
jurisdictional legal frameworks governing CDC-funded CLPPPs in the
United States and strategies for implementing childhood lead poisoning
prevention activities. CDC can use this information to inform guidance,
resource development, and technical assistance activities in support of
the ultimate goal, which is eliminating lead exposure in children. The
dissemination of these ALPA results will ensure that both funded and
non-funded jurisdictions are able to: (1) identify policies and other
factors that support or hinder childhood lead poisoning prevention
efforts; (2) understand what strategies are being used by funded public
health agencies to implement childhood lead poisoning prevention
activities; and (3) use this knowledge to develop and apply similar
strategies to support the national agenda to eliminate childhood lead
poisoning. This program management information collection has been
revised in several ways, including the addition of new answer options
and questions to understand usage of the updated blood lead reference
value (BLRV).
CDC will use one data collection mode, a web survey. A change in
the mode of collection will not affect the total time burden requested
as the time per response is the same for either mode, and the time to
take the survey has remained consistent from 2021 estimates (47 minutes
per response) despite revisions to the survey. This time estimate per
response is based on pilot tests of the revised survey among eight
respondents, and includes the time needed to review the ALPA Training
Manual.
In total, the annual number of respondents remains unchanged at 75,
and the annual time burden requested remains at 59 hours. There are no
costs to respondents other than their time. The respondents are
participating in this survey as a program requirement.
