[NCCDPHP] Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System (PRAMS)

Key Information

Abstract

Pregnancy Risk Assessment Monitoring System (PRAMS) is designed to collect jurisdiction-specific (states, cities, and U.S territories), population-based data on maternal behaviors and experiences before, during, and shortly after pregnancy. PRAMS is a jurisdiction customized survey conducted in 50 jurisdictions in the United States (U.S.). The data are used to identify groups of women and infants at high risk for health problems, monitor changes in health status, and measure progress towards state and national objectives in improving the health of mothers and infants. This Revision is submitted to request approval for an additional three years. Some components of the data collection have been completed (i.e., call back surveys, cognitive and field testing) resulting in reduced burden hours. Specifically, removal of call back surveys decreased annual burden by 1,395 hours and removal of cognitive and field testing decreased annual burden by 100 hours.

[NCEH] Enhancing Data-driven Disease Detection in Newborns (ED3N)

Key Information

Abstract

CDC's Newborn Screening and Molecular Biology Branch (NSMBB) is developing a National Newborn Screening Data Platform (known as ED3N) that will address analytic and post-analytic challenges and promote sharing of molecular, biochemical, and clinical information amongst state-based newborn screening (NBS) partners. The information shared will help NSMBB and newborn screening partners be better equipped to assess disease risk and will help harmonize approaches for disease detection in newborns. Given the rarity of newborn screening diseases, it is imperative that data be collected and analyzed at a national level in order to glean useful insights and trend analyses. The NSMBB is best-suited to oversee this work given its role in providing technical assistance to NBS programs nationally. This is an Extension of the previous submission.

Collection of Research Code Non-Disclosure Agreement Information

Key Information

Abstract

This information collection request is an Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) used for domestic and foreign entities to obtain and use the NRC’s nuclear safety analytical computer codes. NRC develops and uses computer codes to independently model and evaluate safety issues associated with the licensed use of radioactive materials. As a global leader in nuclear regulatory research and safety assessment, NRC is frequently approached by domestic and international organizations requesting copies of NRC computer codes. In general, to obtain an NRC code an individual or organization first agrees to not redistribute the code (i.e., non-disclosure) through an NDA. The NDA also imposes terms and conditions for code use, and requires notification to NRC of code errors, code modifications, and updated user information. An officially signed and executed NDA of users agreeing to the terms and conditions is current NRC practice for access to NRC-developed computer codes. Once the NDA has been signed, received, reviewed, and accepted, the requesting individual or organization is given access to the requested code. The information collection enables the NRC to ensure that proper procedures and agreements are in place to guide the distribution and use of these codes according to NRC and U.S. Government policies and international agreements such as import-export restrictions and intellectual property rights. Further information collection on code errors and modifications by code users permits NRC to maintain control and quality of its codes in a timely and efficient manner.

Request an Individual's Ethics Documents

Key Information

Abstract

The OGE Form 201 collects certain information from, and provides certain information to, persons who seek access to public financial disclosure reports and to other covered records. The form, with the proposed modifications, reflects the requirements of the Ethics in Government Act, including the Representative Louise McIntosh Slaughter Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge Act (STOCK Act), as amended in 2013. These requirements relate to information collected about the identity of the requester, as well as any other person on whose behalf a record is sought, and requires that the requester acknowledge his or her awareness of the legal uses of the information contained in public financial disclosure reports and potential civil penalties for persons who obtain or use a public financial disclosure report for a prohibited purpose. The form also alerts requestors that intentional falsification of the information required by the form may result in prosecution under 18 U.S.C. section 1001. Requestors are mostly members of the public, particularly representatives of the news media, public interest groups, and private citizens, with some Federal agencies and employees.

Rule 13e-1

Key Information

Abstract

Section 13(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Act”) makes it unlawful for an issuer to purchase its own equity securities unless the purchase is in compliance with such rules and regulations as set forth by the Commission for protection of public interest or for the protection of the investors. In order to facilitate compliance with Section 13(e), the Commission adopted Rule 13e-1 (17 CFR 240.13e-1). Rule 13e-1 states that an issuer that has received notice that it is the subject of a tender offer made under Section 14(d)(1) of the Act, that has commenced under Rule 14d-2, cannot purchase any of its equity securities during the tender offer unless the issuer first files a statement with the Commission containing the required information under Rule 13e-1. This rule is in keeping with the Commission’s statutory responsibility to prescribe rules and regulations that are necessary for the protection of investors. A principal function of the Federal securities laws’ disclosure provisions is to make information available to the securities markets. The Commission uses very little of the collected information for itself, except on an occasional basis in the enforcement of the securities laws. The information required by the Commission assures the public availability and dissemination of such information.

Rule 19b-1 (17 CFR 270.19b-1) under the Investment Company Act of 1940 - Frequency of Distribution of Capital Gains

Key Information

Abstract

Section 19(b) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 authorizes the Commission to regulate registered investment company (“fund”) distributions of long-term capital gains made more frequently than once every twelve months. Accordingly, rule 19b-1(e) permits a fund to apply to the Commission for permission to distribute long-term capital gains that would otherwise be prohibited by the rule if the fund did not foresee the circumstances that created the need for the distribution. The application must set forth the pertinent facts and explain the circumstances that justify the distribution. An application that meets those requirements is deemed to be granted unless the Commission denies the request within 15 days after the Commission receives the application. Rule 19b-1(e) allows a fund, in unforeseen circumstances, to request timely authorization to make a distribution that would not otherwise be permitted by the rule. The Commission uses the information required by paragraph (e) to determine whether a request should be granted under this paragraph.

National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) 2027

Key Information

Abstract

The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) is a federally authorized survey of student achievement at grades 4, 8, and 12 in various subject areas, such as mathematics, reading, writing, science, U.S. history, and civics. NAEP is conducted by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) in the Institute of Education Sciences of the U.S. Department of Education. NCES is responsible for designing and executing the assessment, including designing the assessment procedures and methodology, developing the assessment content, selecting the final assessment content, sampling schools and students, recruiting schools, administering the assessment, scoring student responses, determining the analysis procedures, analyzing the data, and reporting the results. The National Assessment Governing Board (henceforth referred to as the Governing Board or NAGB), appointed by the Secretary of Education but independent of the Department, is a bipartisan group whose members include governors, state legislators, local and state school officials, educators, business representatives, and members of the general public. The Governing Board sets policy for NAEP and is responsible for developing the frameworks and test specifications that serve as the blueprint for the assessments. NAEP consists of two assessment programs: the NAEP Long-term Trend (LTT) assessment and the main NAEP assessment. The LTT assessments are given at the national level only and are administered to students at ages 9, 13, and 17 in a manner that is very different from that used for the main NAEP assessments. LTT reports mathematics and reading results that present trend data since the 1970s. LTT does not provide scores for individual students or schools. The main NAEP assessments report current achievement levels and trends in student achievement at grades 4, 8, and 12 for the nation and, for certain assessments (e.g., reading and mathematics), states and select urban districts (i.e., Trial Urban District Assessment, or TUDA). The main NAEP assessments provide results on subject-matter achievement, instructional experiences, and school environment for different student populations (e.g., all fourth-graders) and groups within those populations (e.g., sex [male and female students], race/ethnicity groups). NAEP does not provide scores for individual students or schools. The NAEP assessments contain two different types of items: “cognitive” assessment items, which measure what students know and can do in an academic subject, and “survey” or “non-cognitive” items, which gather information such as demographic variables, as well as construct-related information, such as courses taken. The survey portion includes a collection of data from students, teachers, and school administrators. Since NAEP assessments are administered uniformly using the same sets of test forms across the nation, NAEP results serve as a common metric for all states and select urban districts. The assessment stays essentially the same from year to year, with only carefully documented changes. This permits NAEP to provide a clear picture of student academic progress over time. The possible universe of student respondents for NAEP 2027 is estimated to be 12,000 students at grade 8 attending the approximately 308 public and private schools in a variety of states and the District of Columbia and may include Bureau of Indian Education Schools. This request is to conduct NAEP in 2027, specifically for the Grade 8 Science Pilot. NAEP will administer the assessment using school devices and the internet. For schools that cannot meet the minimum specification for the use of school devices, NAEP will provide an alternate delivery model utilizing NAEP Chromebooks. NAEP has transitioned to primarily administer on school devices with a staged approach so that trends can be measured across time. NAEP conducted a School-based Equipment study in 2024 (OMB #1850-0803 v.347)

Federal-State Unemployment Insurance Program Data Exchange Standardization

Key Information

Abstract

The Department is required by the Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012 to designate eXtensible Markup Language (XML) as a data exchange standard. The data exchange standards help improve the interoperability of these systems that collect and exchange information for UI administrative purposes. Through this regulation, the Department makes use of data exchange standards for ICON and SIDES. To improve UI program operations by states, the Department has been the facilitating entity for development and implementation of automated systems that states may adopt for efficiently processing claims and improving program integrity. These automated systems, which have been developed through a collaborative effort with states and the National Association of Workforce Agencies (NASWA), have replaced manual paper processing with automated exchanges of information between states as well as those between states and employers. The Department provides funding to facilitate the development and implementation of these automated systems, and encourages the use of these systems by states. The Federal requirement to use this standard requires the Department to establish, through regulation, that all such exchanges of electronic information must use XML to comply with the Act.

Protections for Transit Workers under Section 5333(b) Urban Program

Key Information

Abstract

Under 49 U.S.C. 5333(b), when Federal funds are used to acquire, improve, or operate a transit system, the Department must ensure that the recipient of those funds establishes arrangements to protect the rights of affected transit employees. Federal law requires such arrangements to be ``fair and equitable,'' and the Department of Labor (DOL or "the Department") must certify the arrangements before the U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Transit Administration (FTA) can award certain funds to grantees. These employee protective arrangements must include provisions that may be necessary for the preservation of rights, privileges, and benefits under existing collective bargaining agreements or otherwise; the continuation of collective bargaining rights; the protection of individual employees against a worsening of their positions related to employment; assurances of employment to employees of acquired transportation systems; assurances of priority of reemployment of employees whose employment is ended or who are laid off; and paid training or retraining programs. 49 U.S.C. 5333(b)(2). Pursuant to 29 CFR Part 215, upon receipt of copies of applications for Federal assistance subject to 49 U.S.C. 5333(b) from the FTA, together with a request for the certification of employee protective arrangements from the Department of Labor, DOL will process those applications, which must be in final form. The FTA will provide the Department with the information necessary to enable the Department to process employee protections for certification of the project. This ICR contains the information collected when DOL refers for review the grant application and the proposed terms and conditions to unions representing transit employees in the service area of the project and to the applicant and/or sub-recipient.

Dissemination of Quotations -- Rule 602 of Regulation NMS

Key Information

Abstract

Section 11A(a)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”) directs the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”) to use its authority under the Exchange Act to facilitate the establishment of a national market system in which, among other things, brokers, dealers, and investors have access to information on securities quotations and transactions. Moreover, the Commission is authorized, under Sections 11A(c)(1)(B) and (F) of the Exchange Act, to assure the prompt, accurate and reliable distribution of quotation information and to assure the fairness and usefulness of the form and content of such information. To achieve these statutory objectives, the Commission promulgated Rule 11Ac1-1, designated as Rule 602 of Regulation NMS, 17 CFR 242.602. Rule 602 contains two related collections of information. The first collection of information is found in Rule 602(a). This requirement obligates each national securities exchange and national securities association to make available to quotation vendors for dissemination to the public the best bid, best offer, and aggregate quotation size for each “subject security,” as defined under the Rule. The second collection of information is found in Rule 602(b). This requirement obligates each exchange member and over-the-counter (“OTC”) market maker that is a “responsible broker or dealer,” as defined under the Rule, to communicate to an exchange or association its best bids, best offers, and quotation sizes for subject securities.
