A. Purpose
Pursuant to section 3506(c)(2)(A) of
the PRA, GSA specifically solicits
comments and information to enable it
to:
(i) Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the Agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
(ii) 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;
(iii) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
(iv) 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 submission of responses. In
particular, GSA is requesting comments
from very small businesses (those that
employ less than 25) on examples of

specific additional efforts that GSA
could make to reduce the paperwork
burden for very small businesses
affected by this collection.
What should I consider when I prepare
my comments for GSA?
You may find the following
suggestions helpful for preparing your
comments.
1. Explain your views as clearly as
possible and provide specific examples.
2. Describe any assumptions that you
used.
3. Provide copies of any technical
information and/or data you used that
support your views.
4. If you estimate potential burden or
costs, explain how you arrived at the
estimate that you provide.
5. Offer alternative ways to improve
the collection activity.
6. Make sure to submit your
comments by the deadline identified
under DATES.
7. To ensure proper receipt by GSA,
be sure to identify the ICR title on the
first page of your response. You may
also provide the Federal Register
citation.
Data.gov is inspired by the President’s
program for ‘‘Open Government’’ and
‘‘Transparency’’. In response to the
President’s direction to improve the
transparency of government, the Federal
Chief Information Officer (CIO) Council
created a Web site/portal that improves
public access to a wide variety of U.S.
Government data. Data.gov is a publicfriendly Web site that provides
descriptions of the federal datasets,
information on how to access the
datasets, points of contact information,
metadata information, interactive
datasets, ‘‘Communities’’ areas centered
on specific topics, and links to publicly
accessible applications that leverage the
datasets. This information collection
request is being submitted in order to
fulfill the public feedback aspects of this
important initiative. Data.gov visitors
will be provided opportunities to
provide feedback and ratings in the
spirit of the President’s open
government and transparency initiative.
Examples of feedback mechanisms are:
(1) A five-star rating system to give
visitors information about which
datasets other visitors found most useful
and interesting on the Data.gov Web
page,
(2) A ‘‘Suggest Other Datasets’’ entry
page for the public to submit ideas for
datasets with an optional contact email
address provided for those visitors
wishing to identify themselves,
(3) A ‘‘Contact Us’’ entry page with an
optional contact email address for those
visitors wishing to identify themselves,

they leverage the datasets in new and
different ways to build applications,
conduct analysis, and perform research,
(5) Pages for visitors to rate the benefit
of the reported new solutions, etc.

Proposed Project
CDC Oral Health Management
Information System (OMB No. 0920–
0739, exp. 5/31/2013)—Extension—
National Center for Chronic Disease
Prevention and Public Health Promotion
(NCDDPHP), Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The CDC seeks to improve the oral
health of the nation by targeting efforts
to improve the infrastructure of state
and territorial oral health departments,
strengthen and enhance program
capacity related to monitoring the
population’s oral health status and
behaviors, develop effective programs to
improve the oral health of children and
adults, evaluate program
accomplishments, and inform key
stakeholders, including policy makers,

health performance activities including
programmatic and financial
information. State oral health programs
have used the MIS to submit their
required semi-annual reports to CDC
(CDC Oral Health Management
Information System, OMB No. 0920–
0739, exp. 5/31/2013). The last report
under the current Funding Opportunity
Announcement (FOA) is due on October
31, 2013.
CDC is requesting OMB approval to
extend clearance for the MIS until
December 31, 2013. Information will be
reported to CDC once during this
period. The extension will allow CDC to
receive final reports from the state oral
health programs and to provide any
technical assistance or follow-up
support that may be needed to produce
accurate final reports. The estimated
burden per response is 11 hours.
All information will be collected
electronically. There is no change to the
estimated number of respondents or the
burden per response. There are no costs
to respondents other than their time.

of program results. Through a
cooperative agreement program
(Program Announcement DP08–802 and
DP10–1012), CDC has provided funding
to 20 states to strengthen their core oral
health infrastructure and capacity. CDC
funding also helps states reduce health
disparities among high-risk populations
including, but not limited to, those of
lower socioeconomic status (SES),
Hispanic Americans, African
Americans, and other ethnic groups.
NCCDPHP is currently pursuing a key
initiative to improve the efficiency and
effectiveness of CDC project officers
who oversee the state and territorial oral
health programs. An electronic
management information system (MIS)
to support program management,
consulting and evaluation has been
developed in support of the cooperative
agreement. The MIS provides a central
repository of information, such as the
plans of the state or territorial oral
health programs (their goals, objectives,
performance milestones and indicators),
as well as state and territorial oral

Background and Brief Description
The Laboratory Response Network
(LRN) was established by the
Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS), Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC) in
accordance with Presidential Decision
Directive 39, which outlined national
anti-terrorism policies and assigned
specific missions to Federal
departments and agencies. The LRN’s
mission is to maintain an integrated
national and international network of
laboratories that can respond to
suspected acts of biological, chemical,
or radiological threats and other public
health emergencies.
When Federal, State and local public
health laboratories voluntarily join the
LRN, they assume specific
responsibilities and are required to
provide information to the LRN Program
Office at CDC. Each laboratory must
submit and maintain complete
information regarding the testing
capabilities of the laboratory.
Biennially, laboratories are required to
review, verify and update their testing
capability information. Complete testing
capability information is required in
