Proposed Data Collections Submitted
for Public Comment and
Recommendations
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. To
request more information on the
proposed projects or to obtain a copy of
the data collection plans and
instruments, call 404–639–7570 or send
comments to Leroy Richardson, 1600

Services, 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 acts of biological, chemical, or
radiological terrorism and other public
health emergencies. Federal, state and
local public health laboratories
voluntarily join the LRN.
The LRN Program Office maintains a
database of information for each
member laboratory that includes contact
information as well as staff and
equipment inventories. However,
semiannually or during emergency
response the LRN Program Office may
conduct a Special Data Call to obtain
additional information from LRN
Member Laboratories in regards to
biological or chemical terrorism
preparedness. Special Data Calls may be
conducted via queries that are
distributed by broadcast emails or by
survey tools (i.e. Survey Monkey). This
is a request for an extension to this
generic clearance. The only cost to
respondents is their time to respond to
the data call.

the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
of the functions of the agency, including
whether the information shall have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and

burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including through the

or other forms of information
technology. Written comments should
be received within 60 days of this

Background and Brief Description
CDC has been monitoring the
occurrence of serious birth defects and
genetic diseases in Atlanta since 1967
through the Metropolitan Atlanta
Congenital Defects Program (MACDP).
The MACDP is a population-based
surveillance system for birth defects
currently covering three counties in
Metropolitan Atlanta.
Since 1997, CDC has funded casecontrol studies of major birth defects
that utilize existing birth defect
surveillance registries (including
MACDP) to identify cases and study
birth defects causes in participating
states/municipalities across the United
States.
BD–STEPS is a case-control study that
is similar to the previous CDC-funded
birth defects case-control study, NBDPS,
which stopped interviewing
participants in 2013. As with NBDPS,
