Report of Illness or Death: Interstate Travel of Persons (42 CFR part 70)

Key Information

Abstract

The goal of this information collection is to ensure that CDC can collect data related to communicable diseases or deaths that occur aboard conveyances during interstate travel within the United States. Data is used by CDC to assess and respond to reports of communicable disease 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. As required by regulation, all instances of communicable disease characterized by certain signs and symptoms must be reported to the local health authority with jurisdiction over the arrival port. CDC has accepted reports to CDC as fulfilling this requirement. CDC also requests reports of all deaths occurring during domestic flights.In this Revision, CDC is requesting approval for an additional three years. The total burden hours from the last revision has increased from 23 to 186 hours. This is due to more reports coming in related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The State Water Resources Research Institute Program issues an annual call for applications from the institutes to support plans to promote research, training, information dissemination, and other activities meeting the needs of the States and Nation. The program also encourages regional cooperation among institutes in research into areas of water management, development, and conservation that have a regional or national character. The U.S. Geological Survey has been designated as the administrator of the provisions of the Act.

[NCEZID] US Tuberculosis Follow-up Worksheet for Newly Admitted Persons with Overseas Tuberculosis Classifications

Key Information

Abstract

The purpose of this data collection is to follow-up with and assess newly-arrived persons in the United States who received overseas tuberculosis classifications in order to assist in the national effort to prevent new transmission of TB. The information collected by The EDN Tuberculosis Follow-Up Worksheet for Newly-Arrived Persons with Overseas Tuberculosis Classifications, also commonly known as the TB Follow-Up Worksheet, will provide outcomes for improving national TB prevention programs. The Division of Global Migration and Quarantine (DGMQ) staff, along with other federal partners will use this information to assess overseas panel physician performance, overseas prevention activities, and TB control program performance in the United States. Specifically, to improve overseas panel physician performance and TB prevention activities, CDC needs information on the U.S. domestic chest x-rays, chest x-ray comparison sputum smear and culture, and diagnosis results along with U.S. domestic reviews of overseas treatment. To monitor and assess U.S. domestic TB program performance, CDC needs to collect data on all elements of TB U.S. domestic follow-up evaluations, including chest x-rays, diagnosis, and U.S. treatment outcomes. This Non-Substantive Change Request is submitted to make minor modifications that do not alter the overall scope of the currently approved collection. Additionally, there is no change in burden associated to respondents.

Understanding Economic Risk for Families with Low Incomes: Economic Security, Program Benefits, and Decisions About Work

Key Information

Abstract

This information collection request is for a new project. The research team is requesting two years of approval. The purpose of this project is to understand the role of economic risk in public benefit recipients’ decision making about whether to increase earnings. This study will investigate the factors that influence the decisions made by people with low incomes to increase earnings (or not) by presenting beneficiaries with vignettes about other people with the opportunity to increase their earnings and asking them what decision they would make in similar circumstances. The vignettes will vary the risk of an opportunity, the ease of regaining benefits if income later dropped, and the extent of the earnings increase. The job opportunities and associated risks will vary systematically. The choices that study participants recommend will provide insight into the relative importance of these different factors – both alone and in combination. Guided by a better understanding of the role of risk and risk tolerance in families’ decisions about work, the government could design policy levers to reduce risk and thereby support families’ choices to increase earnings and achieve greater economic security.
