PUBLIC COMMENT ON FEDERAL REGISTER
LEROY RICHARDON FAILED TO POST THIS ON REGULATIONS IN A FORMAT THAT WILL
ENABLE PUBLIC COMMENT TO BE PUT ON THAT WEBSITE. LEROY RICHARDSON HAS FAILED
TO DO THIS MANY TIMES. MAYBE HE NEEDS TO RETIRE? CERTAINLY INCOMPETENCE IS
SHOWING.
THE PUBILC HAS THEREFORE BEEN DISENFRCHISED ON THIS QUESTION TO A GREAT EXTENT
BECAUSE THEY ARE DIRECTED TO REGULATIONS.GOV WHICH WILL NOT ALLOW PUBLIC
COMMENT. SO THEIR ONLY ALTERNATIVE IS TO WRITE A LETTET,R WHICH NOBODY DOES
MUCH ANYMORE. IN FACT OUR PRESIDENT HAS ASKED HIS CABINET TO USE INTERNET. SO
WHY IS LEROY SO INCOMPETENT IN THAT REGARD. HE GIVES NO OTHER PLACE TO EMAIL.
THE BUDGET FOR THIS WORK SHOULD BE CUT TO ZERO. THD INFORMATION DISSEMINATED
BY THE CDC IS INACCURATE AND AS BADLY INACCURATE AS LEORY RICHARDSON JUST DID
ON HIS POSTING OF THIS FEDERAL REGITER. THEY CLAIM DEATHS FROM FLU WHEN THERE IS
NO REAL JUSITIFCATION FOR THAT DESIGNATION. THEY HAVE INCOMPETE INFORMATION
AND CERTYAINLY NO REAL MEDICAL FORENSICS TO MAKE THAT DETERMINATION AND YET
TI-lEY LOUDLY PROCLAIM THAT IS THE FACT. THE FACT IS DEATH CERTIFICATES FROM FLU
ARE VERY HARD TO DISCERN WITHOUT A FULL MEDICAL AUTOPSY AND THE CDC IS
DISSEMINATING FAKE AND FALSE INFORMATION.
THIS COMEMNT IS FOR TI-l EPUBLIC RECORD. NOBODY WHO LOOKS INTO THE ACTIONS OF
THIS FAT CAT BUREAUCRACY IS PLEASED WITH WHAT THEY ARE SELLING. THEY ARE
SIMPLY PIMPS FOR BIG PHAR.MA AND DO NOT GOOD FOR THE US PUBLIC. THEY ARE SIMPLY
FAT CAT INCOMPETENT BOOBS. JEAN PUBLI JEANPUBLICIWGMAIL.COM,

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 clarity of the information to
be collected; (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents, including
through the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology; and (e) estimates
of capital or start- up costs and costs of operation, maintenance, and purchase of services to provide
information. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate,
maintain, retain, disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This includes the time needed to
review instructions; to develop, acquire, install and utilize technology and systems for the purpose of
collecting, validating and verifYing information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and
providing information; to train personnel and to be able to respond to a collection of information, to search
data sources, to complete and review the collection of information; and to transmit or otherwise disclose the
information. Proposed Project National Notifiable Diseases Surveillance System (OMB Control No. 09200728, Expires 01/31/2017)--Revision--Center for Surveillance, Epidemiology and Laboratory Services
(CSELS), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description The Public
Health Services Act (42 U.S.C. 241) authorizes CDC to disseminate nationally notifiable condition
information. The Nationally Notifiable Diseases Surveillance System (NNDSS) is based on data collected at
the state, territorial and local levels as a result of legislation and regulations in those jurisdictions that require
health care providers, medical laboratories, and other entities to submit health-related data on reportable
conditions to public health departrnents. These [[Page 27316]] reportable conditions, which include infectious
and non-infectious diseases, vary by jurisdiction depending upon each jurisdiction's health priorities and needs.
Infectious disease agents and environmental hazards often cross geographical boundaries. Each year, the
Council of State and Territorial Disease Epidemiologists (CSTE), supported by CDC, determines which
reportable conditions should be designated nationally notifiable and voluntarily submitted to CDC so that
information can be shared across jurisdictional boundaries and both surveillance and prevention and control
activities can be coordinated at regional and national levels. CDC requests a three-year approval fo r a revision
the NNDSS information collection. This Revision includes requests for approval to receive: (I) Case
notification data for Chikungunya, Dengue-like illness, Non-HPS Hantavirus, and Acute Flaccid Myelitis; (2)
new laboratory and vaccine data elements for all conditions; and (3) new disease-specific data elements for
Mumps, Pertussis, and Sexually Transmitted Diseases. Although this Revision includes case notifications that
were not part of the last NNDSS Revision, the estimate of the average burden per response based on the burden
tables from all of the consolidated applications has not changed. The burden on the states and cities is
estimated to be 10 hours per response and the burden on the territories is estimated to be 5 hours per response.
The addition of new vaccine, laboratory, and disease-specific data elements do not add any additional burden
because the states, territories, and cities already collect those data elements. There will be no increase in
burden for the states, territories, and cities to send those data elements to CDC. The estimated annual burden is
28,340 hours. Estimated Annualized Burden Hours --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Number of Avg. burden Type of respondents Form name Number of
