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 Progress and Monitoring Report (PPMR) (OMB Control No.
0920-1132, Exp. 3/31/2026)--Extension--Office of Science (OS), Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Each year, approximately 80% of the CDC's budget is distributed via
contracts, grants and cooperative agreements, from the Office of
Financial Resources (OFR) to partners (Awardees) throughout the world
in an effort to promote health, prevent disease, injury and disability
and prepare for new health threats. OFR is responsible for the
stewardship of these funds while providing excellent, professional
services to our partners and stakeholders.
Currently, CDC uses the Performance Progress and Monitoring Report
(PPMR, OMB Control No. 0920-1132, Expiration: 3/31/2026), a set of
progress reporting forms for Non-Research awards to collect information
semi-annually from Awardees regarding the progress made over specified
time periods on CDC funded projects. The PPMR was originally modified
from SF-PPR (OMB Control No. 0970-0406, Expiration: 10/31/2015), a
similar progress report that was owned by the Administration for
Children and Families (ACF) within the Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS). The PPMR was created by CDC to provide an agency-wide
collection tool that would be able to obtain data on the progress of
CDC Awardees for the purposes of evaluation, and to bring the Awardee
reporting procedure into compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act
(PRA).
The information collected enables the accurate, reliable, uniform,
and timely submission to CDC of each Awardee's work plans and progress
reports, including strategies, activities and performance measures. The
information collected by the PPMR is designed to align with, and
support the goals outlined for each of the CDC Awardees. Collection and
reporting of the information will occur in an efficient, standardized,
and user-friendly manner that will generate a variety of routine and
customizable reports. The PPMR will allow each Awardee to summarize
activities and progress towards meeting performance measures and goals
over a specified time period specific to each award. CDC will also have
the capacity to generate reports that describe activities across
multiple Awardees. In addition, CDC will use the information collection
to respond to inquiries from HHS, Congress and other stakeholder
inquiries about program activities and their impact. The current
submission process allows Awardees to submit a completed PDF version of
the PPMR by uploading it to <a href="http://www.grants.gov">www.grants.gov</a>, or directly to the programs
at CDC that will be performing the evaluation.
This Extension request is being submitted to allow CDC to continue
collection of this valuable information
[[Page 33958]]
from Awardees for an additional three years. There are no anticipated
changes to the information collection instruments or associated burden
at this time. CDC requests OMB approval for an estimated 13,014 annual
burden hours. There is no cost to respondents other than their time.
