In compliance with the requirement
of Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 for
opportunity for public comment on
proposed data collection projects, the
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) will publish periodic
summaries of proposed projects.

data collection plans and instrument,
call 404–639–5960 and send comments

Background and Brief Description
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention is requesting OMB approval
to reinstate without change the
information collection request,
‘‘Restriction on Travel of Persons’’
(OMB Control No. 0920–0488). This
information collection request expired
on March 31, 2007.
CDC is authorized to collect this
information under 42 CFR 70.5 (Certain
communicable diseases; special
requirements). This regulation requires

that any person who is in the
communicable period for cholera,
plague, smallpox, typhus, or yellow
fever or having been exposed to any
such disease is in the incubation period
thereof, to apply for and receive a
permit from the Surgeon General or his
authorized representative in order to
travel from one State or possession to
another.
Control of disease transmission
within the States is considered to be the
province of state and local health
authorities, with Federal assistance
being sought by those authorities on a
cooperative basis without application of
Federal regulations. The regulations in
42 part 70 were developed to facilitate
Federal action in the event of large
outbreaks requiring a coordinated effort
involving several states, or in the event
of inadequate local control. While it is
not known whether, or to what extent
situations may arise in which these
regulations would be invoked,
contingency planning for domestic
emergency preparedness is now
commonplace. Should these situations
arise, CDC will use the reporting and
recordkeeping requirements contained
in the regulations to carry out
quarantine responsibilities as required
by law.
There is no cost to respondents other
than their time.

of the Councils on their progress,
priorities and implementation plans to
date, including the Agriculture, Forestry
and Fishing Sector; Healthcare and
Social Assistance Sector;

Utilities Sector; Mining Sector and Oil
and Gas Extraction Sub-Sector. After
each update, there will be time to

the conference call and conference room
facilities. There is limited space
available in the meeting room (capacity

safety and health leading to improved
workplace practices. Unveiled in 1996,
NORA has become a research
framework for the nation. Diverse
parties collaborate to identify the most
critical issues in workplace safety and
health. Partners then work together to
develop goals and objectives for
addressing those needs and to move the
research results into practice. The
NIOSH role is facilitator of the process.
For more information about NORA, see
http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/nora/
about.html.
Since 2006, NORA has been
structured by industrial sectors. Eight
sector groups have been defined using
the North American Industrial
Classification System (NAICS). After
receiving public input through the web
and town hall meetings, NORA Sector
Councils have been working to define
sector-specific strategic plans for
conducting research and moving the
results into widespread practice. During
2008, most of these Councils will post
draft strategic plans for public comment.
For more information, see the link above
and choose ‘‘Sector-based Approach,’’
‘‘NORA Sector Councils’’ and
‘‘Comment on Draft Sector Agendas’’
from the right-side menu.
