Proposed Project
Monitoring and Reporting for the Core
State Violence and Injury Prevention
Program Cooperative Agreement—
New—National Center for Injury
Prevention and Control (NCIPC),
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC) seeks new OMB
approval to collect information from
awardees funded under the Core State
Violence and Injury Prevention Program
cooperative agreement program (Core
SVIPP). CDC’s National Center for Injury
Prevention and Control (NCIPC) is
committed to working with its partners
to promote action that reduces injuries,
violence, and disabilities, by providing
leadership in identifying priorities,
promoting prevention strategies,
developing useful tools, and monitoring
the effectiveness of Injury and Violence
Prevention (IVP) program activities.
Unintentional and violence-related
injuries and their consequences are the
leading causes of death for the first four
decades of life, regardless of gender,
race, or socioeconomic status.
More than 192,000 individuals in the
United States die each year as a result
of unintentional injuries and violence,
and more than 31 million others suffer
non-fatal injuries requiring emergency
department visits each year. Support

Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 43 / Friday, March 4, 2016 / Notices
and guidance for programs addressing
IVP have been provided through
cooperative agreement funding and
technical assistance administered by
NCIPC. Awardees report progress and
activity information to NCIPC on an
annual schedule using three documents:
Annual Progress Report, Evaluation and
Performance Management Plan, and
Injury Indicator Spreadsheet. Burden is
expected to vary based on awardee
funding type. For example all awardees
who successfully compete will be
funded for the BASE component.

However, awardees will also have the
opportunity to compete to be funded for
one or both of the Enhanced
components. It is expected that those
funded for Enhanced components will
have a greater burden, given the
requirement to report on more domains
of activity.
Information to be collected will
provide crucial data for program
performance monitoring and provide
CDC with the capacity to respond in a
timely manner to requests for
information about the program from the
Department of Health and Human

Services (HHS), the White House,
Congress, and other sources.
Information to be collected will also
strengthen CDC’s ability to monitor
awardee progress, provide data-driven
technical assistance, and disseminate
the most current surveillance data on
unintentional and intentional injuries.
The total estimated annualized
burden for this collection is 3,120 hours.
OMB approval is requested for three
years. The only cost to respondents will
be time spent on responding to the
progress reports.
