injury prevention programs and policies and demonstrate impact in the 
reduction of injury-related morbidity and mortality.

0099 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

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 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

    Performance Monitoring of CDC's Core State Injury Prevention 
Program (SIPP) (OMB Control No. 0920-1365, Exp. 7/31/2025)--Revision--
National Center for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC), Centers for 
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    This is a Revision request for the currently approved Performance 
Monitoring of CDC's Core State Injury Prevention Program (SIPP) (OMB 
Control No. 0920-1369, Exp. Date 7/31/2025). Approval is requested for 
an additional three years to continue collecting information from 
awardees funded under the Core SIPP cooperative agreement. Data 
collected up until this

[[Page 95795]]

point has been used for monitoring the impact of Core SIPP.
    Monitoring the impact of population-based strategies and 
identifying new insights and innovative solutions to health problems 
are two of the noted public health activities that all public health 
systems should undertake. For NCIPC, these objectives cannot be 
satisfied without the systematic collection of data and information 
from state health departments. The information collection will enable 
the accurate, reliable, uniform, and timely submission to NCIPC of each 
awardee's progress report and injury indicators, including strategies 
and performance measures. The information collection plan proposed here 
will also generate a variety of routine and customizable reports. 
State-specific reports will allow each awardee to summarize activities 
and progress towards meeting strategies and performance measure targets 
related to the reduction and prevention of unintentional and 
intentional injuries. NCIPC will also have the capacity to generate 
reports that describe activities and health outcomes across multiple 
recipients, which will enable better reporting of trends and provision 
of technical assistance through linking partners across state health 
departments and collaborating divisions within CDC.
    The information collection and reporting requirements have been 
carefully designed to align with and support the specific goals and 
outcomes outlined in the Core SIPP cooperative agreement. The 
overarching goal of Core SIPP is to strengthen the awardee's injury 
prevention programs and policies and demonstrate impact in the 
reduction of injury-related morbidity and mortality. Although the data 
are limited to the 26 recipients of the Core SIPP NOFO, the results can 
be generalizable and inform injury prevention work. Moreover, it is 
steadfastly asserted that the results of the data collection are vital 
to ensuring the Core SIPPs efficient management. Results will not only 
allow NCIPC staff to provide data-driven technical assistance to 
recipients, but also to assess patterns across other NCIPC injury 
prevention programs such as, Prescription Drug Overdose Prevention for 
States and the Injury Control Research Centers. In addition, the data 
collection will inform the continuous quality improvement process and 
allow NCIPC staff to make mid-course corrections and describe the 
impact on health outcomes. The information collection procedures allow 
NCIPC to respond to inquiries from the HHS, the White House, Congress 
and other stakeholders about program activities and their impact; as 
well as, work towards CDCs overarching mission to protect America from 
health, safety and security threats, both foreign and in the U.S.
    Program recipients use the information collected to manage and 
coordinate their activities and to improve their efforts to prevent and 
control injuries. The Partners' Portal allows recipients to fulfill 
their annual reporting obligations efficiently by employing user-
friendly, easily accessible web-based instruments to collect necessary 
information for both progress reports and continuation applications 
including work plans. This approach enables recipients to save 
pertinent information from one reporting period to the next and reduces 
the administrative burden on the annual continuation application and 
the performance monitoring process. Awardee program staff are able to 
review the completeness of data needed to generate required reports, 
enter basic summary data for reports annually, and finalize and save 
required reports for upload into other reporting systems as required.
    CDC requests OMB approval for an estimated 286 annual burden hours. 
There are no costs to respondents other than their time to participate.
