Abstract
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 proposed information collection, as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. This notice invites comment on a proposed information collection project titled Annual Progress Reports for Injury Control Research Centers (ICRC). ICRCs focus on research, training, and outreach for issues of local and national importance, including the prevention of adverse childhood experiences, child abuse and neglect, drowning, drug overdose, intimate partner violence, older adult falls, sexual violence, suicide, and traumatic brain injuries, as well as the promotion of transportation safety.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
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 proposed information
collection, as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. This
notice invites comment on a proposed information collection project
titled Annual Progress Reports for Injury Control Research Centers
(ICRC). ICRCs focus on research, training, and outreach for issues of
local and national importance, including the prevention of adverse
childhood experiences, child abuse and neglect, drowning, drug
overdose, intimate partner violence, older adult falls, sexual
violence, suicide, and traumatic brain injuries, as well as the
promotion of transportation safety.
DATES: CDC must receive written comments on or before August 5, 2024.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments, identified by Docket No. CDC-2024-
0048 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.
<bullet> Mail: Jeffrey M. Zirger, Information Collection Review
Office, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 1600 Clifton Road
NE, MS H21-8, Atlanta, Georgia 30329.
Instructions: All submissions received must include the agency name
and Docket Number. CDC will post, without change, all relevant comments
to <a href="http://www.regulations.gov">www.regulations.gov</a>.
Please note: Submit all comments through the Federal eRulemaking
portal (<a href="http://www.regulations.gov">www.regulations.gov</a>) or by U.S. mail to the address listed
above.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: To request more information on the
proposed project or to obtain a copy of the information collection plan
and instruments, contact Jeffrey M. Zirger, Information Collection

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), Federal agencies
[[Page 47964]]
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
Annual Progress Reports for Injury Control Research Centers
(ICRC)--New--National Center for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC),
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
In 1987, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and
the National Center for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC) began
funding Injury Control Research Centers (ICRCs) at academic research
institutions throughout the United States. ICRCs focus on three core
functions--research, training, and outreach--for issues of local and
national importance, including the prevention of adverse childhood
experiences; child abuse and neglect; drowning; drug overdose; intimate
partner violence; older adult falls; sexual violence; suicide; and
traumatic brain injuries, and the promotion of transportation safety.
ICRCs foster multidisciplinary strategies for addressing these complex
problems and disseminating research findings. In addition to conducting
cutting-edge, multidisciplinary research, ICRCs train and develop the
current and next generation of researchers and public health
professionals to help ensure that there is an adequate supply of
qualified practitioners and researchers for advancing prevention
research, addressing new problems, and reaching new populations across
the nation. Finally, ICRCs work with States and communities to
translate research findings into action. ICRCs provide partner
organizations with technical assistance on programs, public health
infrastructure, and the integration of resources at the local, State,
and national levels. Areas of emphasis within each ICRC are determined
by the expertise of the faculty and the public health needs and
opportunities identified through the ICRC's outreach activities. This
collaborative approach is a vital component in the success of efforts
to make an impact on population-level reduction in injury-related harm.
ICRCs form a national network of expertise and innovation in injury
prevention and control. ICRC grants are typically funded in five-year
funding cycles. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
requests OMB approval to electronically collect annual progress report
(APR) information and Success Stories from the 11 currently funded
ICRCs. Grantees will report progress and activity information to CDC on
an annual schedule using a web-based CAMP. The information that will be
collected will provide crucial data for program performance monitoring
and will improve CDC's ability 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. The information that will be collected will also strengthen
CDC's ability to monitor grantee progress towards stated grant
research, training, and outreach objectives, provide data-driven
technical assistance, and disseminate Success Stories about what's
working to reduce unintentional and intentional injuries. This data
collection will improve and innovate through evaluation, research, and
quality improvement; investigate, diagnose, and address health hazards
and root causes; communicate effectively to inform and educate;
strengthen, support, and mobilize communities and partnerships; and
create, champion, and implement policies, plans. CDC ICRC grantees
perform all of these activities, and the systematic collection of data,
annually, is the best way for CDC to understand this work. This APR
information collection will enable grantees to submit accurate,
reliable, and timely activity and performance data to the CDC.
CDC requests OMB approval for an estimated 183 annual burden hours.
There is no cost to participants other than their time.
