the Office of

[[Page 69681]]

Management and Budget (OMB) for each collection of information they

conduct or sponsor. In addition, the PRA also requires Federal agencies

to provide a 60-day notice in the Federal Register concerning each

proposed collection of information, including each new proposed

Comments are invited on: (a) Whether 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 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

maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; to

train personnel and to be able to respond to a collection of

Proposed Project

Community-based Tick Control for the Prevention of Rocky Mountain

Spotted Fever in Hermosillo, Mexico''--New--National Center for

Emerging and Zoonotic Diseases (NCEZID), Centers for Disease Control

and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Rickettsial

Zoonoses Branch (RZB) requests approval of a public health intervention

assessment tool to demonstrate the efficacy and impact of public health

research related to the prevention of Rocky Mountain spotted fever

file:///C:/Program%20Files%20(x86)/Documentum/CTS/docbases/ProDocbase/config/temp_sessions/51401978... 11/23/2015

[RMSF] in Hermosillo, Mexico. These activities include monitoring

cases, conducting tick control interventions, and performing

participant surveys to assess the knowledge, attitudes, and practices

relating to tick control and prevention.

The information collection for which approval is sought is in

accordance with RZB's mission to reduce morbidity and mortality of

rickettsial diseases and decrease the burden of disease through control

and prevention methods. Authorizing Legislation comes from section 301

of the Public Health Service Act (42 U.S.C. 241).

Approval for a three-year data collection will allow RZB to collect

information related to risk of RMSF to improve and inform prevention

activities. Successful execution of RZB's public health mission

requires use data collection activities in collaboration with multiple

local and international partners. RZB proposes the following use of

pre/posttests to evaluate the changes in knowledge, attitudes and

practices relating to tick control as well as perceived impact of the

intervention project. The project will also collect basic household

information to document their consent to participate. Data collection

will be conducted in-person. Data will be recorded on paper forms and

then entered into an electronic database.

RZB estimates involvement of 1,300 respondents and a maximum of 600

hours of burden for research activities each year. The collected

information will not impose a cost burden on the respondents beyond

that associated with their time to provide the required data.
