FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

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

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

occupational noise exposure research in
the United States onshore upstream
OGE sector. This proposed project will
characterize relationships between noise
exposure, chemical exposures, hearing
loss, and hearing loss prevention
practices within the onshore OGE
industry.
Primary data will be collected using
three approaches. First, researchers will
collect direct measurements of noise
and ototoxic chemicals on job sites,
including personal exposure
assessments of OGE workers. Second,
researchers will use a questionnaire to
collect information on noise and
chemical exposures, hearing loss, and
associated factors among OGE workers.
Third, audiometry tests performed by
NIOSH will be offered to industry
partners to further understand extent of
hearing loss amongst OGE workers.
Data will be used to understand noise
exposures, ototoxic chemical exposures,
self-reported hearing loss, and hearing
loss prevention practices in the OGE
industry. Subsequently, the data and
analysis will be used to create evidencebased interventions and
recommendations, which will be
communicated to the spectrum of OGE
industry stakeholders.
CDC requests OMB approval for an
estimated 65 annual burden hours.
There is no cost to respondents other
than their time to participate.

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.

administers regulations pertaining to
interstate control of communicable
diseases (42 CFR part 70), and sections
42 CFR parts 70.4 and 70.11 include
requirements reports of ill persons or
death if occurring during interstate
travel.
The intended use of the information
is to ensure that CDC can assess and
respond to reports of ill persons or
death that occur on conveyances
engaged in interstate travel and assist
state and local health authorities if an
illness or death occurs that poses a risk
to public health. Generally, the primary
source of this information is aircraft
traveling within the United States.
There are no standard forms
associated with this information
collection. Reporting requirements
imposed by the regulations have been
reduced and streamlined by reliance
upon State and local health departments
to manage most situations occurring
within their jurisdictions. If submission
of information under these regulations
becomes necessary, all information may
be submitted in the most expeditious
manner practical. At this time, all
reporting of a communicable disease or
death is accomplished electronically,
e.g., via Air Traffic Control or via the
airlines’ points of contact (e.g.,
Operations Center, Flight Control,
Airline Station Manager.)
For reports of ill persons or death on
a conveyance engaged in interstate
traffic, the total burden is estimated
from 1,600 respondents submitting
domestic reports of death or
communicable disease in 2021. This is
a significant increase due to reports of
illness from the COVID–19 pandemic,
with an average burden of seven
minutes per report. CDC requests
approval for an estimated 186 annual
burden hours. There is no cost to
respondents other than the time
required to make the report of illness or
death.

Proposed Project

30/2023)—Revision—National Center
for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious
Diseases (NCEZID), Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The National Outbreak Reporting
System (NORS) is a web-based platform
that is used by local, state, and
territorial health departments in the
United States to report all waterborne
and foodborne disease outbreaks and
enteric disease outbreaks transmitted by
contact with environmental sources,
infected persons or animals, or
unknown modes of transmission to the
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention. CDC analyzes outbreak data
to determine trends and develop and
refine recommendations for prevention
and control of foodborne, waterborne,
and enteric disease outbreaks.
CDC requests OMB approval to
combine the two previously approved
forms (Form 52.12 Waterborne Disease
Transmission and Form 52.13
Foodborne, Person to Person Disease
Transmission, Animal Contact,
Environmental Contamination,
Unknown Transmission mode)
previously approved under OMB
Control No. 0920–1304 into one form
(Form 52.14). This change will
streamline the data elements that are
collected, by resulting in the utilization
of one form for all reportable modes of
transmission and eliminating
overlapping data collection fields.
The total annualized burden is
estimated to be 1160 hours. There are no
costs to respondents other than their
time.
