The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) requests a nonmaterial/non-substantive change of the currently approved Information Collection Request: “Phased Approach to the Resumption of

Cruise Ship Passenger Operations”

This change request is to make the following changes to the Technical Instructions, Operational Documents, and Request for Approval to Conduct a Simulated Voyage Prior to Issuance of COVID-19 Conditional Sailing Certificate

Current 0920-1335 approval:

CDC replaced the language in the above mentioned documents to reflect the updated information as cleared by OMB, and we are resubmitting as a new attachment

Additionally, CDC is requesting to make the following changes to the CDC COVID-19 Conditional Sailing Certificate and the Conditional Sail Order Simulated Voyage After-Action Report Template:

On page 5 of the Conditional Sail Order Simulated Voyage After-Action Report Template the following language has been added “CDC may lower the 75% post-disembarkation testing requirement for future simulated voyages based on lessons learned from previous simulated voyages and other factors”

The following changes were made to the CDC COVID-19 Conditional Sailing Certificate, the phrase “One or more” was replaced with “at least one” throughout the document. A footnote “The 60-calendar day timeframe is suggested as a guideline. CDC will respond to submissions within 5 business days. CDC expects to quickly approve applications that are both complete and accurate.”, was added to page 1.

This Non-Substantive Change Request results in no additional changes to currently approved information collection instruments and no change in burden hours.
