and Human Services (HHS).
ACTION: Notice with comment period.
AGENCY:

The Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC), as part of
its continuing efforts to reduce public
burden and maximize the utility of
government information, invites the
general public and other Federal
agencies to take this opportunity to
comment on proposed and/or
continuing information collections, as
required by the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995. This notice invites
comment on a newly proposed
information collection project entitled
‘‘Practice Patterns Related to Opioid Use
During Pregnancy and Lactation’’. CDC
seeks to collect data for the purpose of
assessing obstetrician-gynecologists’
knowledge, attitudes, and practices
regarding screening for and treatment of
maternal opioid use surrounding the
time of pregnancy. CDC will need a oneyear clearance from the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) to
collect the necessary data.
DATES: Written comments must be
received on or before May 31, 2016.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA)
(44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), Federal agencies
must obtain approval from the Office of
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 collection, each proposed
extension of existing collection of
information, and each reinstatement of
previously approved information
collection before submitting the
collection to OMB for approval. To
comply with this requirement, we are
publishing this notice of a proposed
data collection as described below.
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
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
Practice Patterns Related to Opioid
Use During Pregnancy and Lactation—
New—National Center for Chronic
Disease Prevention and Health
Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Over the past decade, the prevalence
of maternal opioid use during
pregnancy has steadily increased. The
use of opioids or other psychoactive
substances, either by illicit abuse or by
nonmedical abuse of prescription
opioids, increases the risks for health
and social problems for both mother and
infant. For example, maternal substance
abuse during pregnancy increases the
risk of preterm birth, low birth weight,
perinatal death, and neonatal abstinence
syndrome (NAS). For many women, and
some at-risk women in particular,
prenatal visits may be the only time
they routinely see a physician. Because
obstetrician-gynecologists (OB/GYNs)
are the principal health care providers
for women, OB/GYNs are well situated
to screen for substance use and to treat
or encourage cessation of substance use
during pregnancy. Thus, it is important
to understand current provider
knowledge, attitudes, and practices
regarding maternal opioid use.
CDC, in collaboration with the
American College of Obstetricians and
Gynecologists (ACOG), plans to conduct
a survey to address this gap in
knowledge. Survey respondents will be
ACOG Fellows and Junior Fellows who
have a current medical license and are
in medical practice focused on women’s
health. ACOG is separated into 11
districts, one of which represents OB/
GYN members who are in the U.S.
military. The remaining 10 ACOG
districts correspond to geographic
regions that encompass the entire
United States and Canada. Survey
invitations will be sent to a quasirandom sample of ACOG members in
each district.
CDC and ACOG estimate that 1,500
individuals will be contacted in order to
obtain a study target of 600 respondents.
The initial invitation will be distributed
by email with instructions on
completing a web-based version of the
questionnaire. Three to four months
after the initial invitation, a paper
version of the questionnaire will be

Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 62 / Thursday, March 31, 2016 / Notices
distributed to individuals who have not
completed the online version. The
estimated number of respondents for the
full web-based or paper questionnaire is
420 and the estimated burden per
response is 15 minutes. Approximately
six weeks after the second recruitment
attempt, ACOG will distribute a short
version of the questionnaire to any nonresponders. The estimated number of
responses for the short version of the
questionnaire is 180 and the estimated

No information will be collected
about individual patients. Survey
administration and data management
will be conducted by ACOG, and
participation is voluntary. De-identified
response data will be shared with CDC
for analysis.
Findings will be used to create
recommendations for educational
programs and patient care. There are no
costs to participants other than their
time.

burden per response is 5 minutes. An
overall 40% response rate is expected.
The survey will collect information
about provider attitudes and beliefs
regarding maternal opioid use, their
screening and referral practices for
pregnant or postpartum patients,
barriers to screening and treating
pregnant and postpartum patients for
opioid use, and resources that are
needed to improve treatment and
referral.

project assigned OMB Control Number
0920–1074, formerly entitled ‘‘Annual
Survey of Colorectal Cancer Control
Activities Conducted by States and
Tribal Organizations.’’ In the previous
OMB approval period, information
collection consisted of an annual
grantee survey. In the next OMB
approval period, information collection
will consist of a redesigned survey and
a new clinic-level information
collection. The number of respondents
will increase and the total estimated
annualized burden will increase.
Among cancers that affect both men
and women, colorectal cancer (CRC) is
the second leading cause of death from
cancer in the United States. CRC
screening has been shown to reduce
incidence of and death from the disease.
Screening for CRC can detect disease
early when treatment is more effective
and prevent cancer by finding and
removing precancerous polyps. Of
individuals diagnosed with early stage
CRC, more than 90% live five or more
years. Despite strong evidence
supporting screening, only 65% of
adults currently report being up-to-date
with CRC screening as recommended by
the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force,
with more than 22 million age-eligible
adults estimated to be untested. To
reduce CRC morbidity, mortality, and
associated costs, use of CRC screening
tests must be increased among ageeligible adults with the lowest CRC
screening rates.

Program (CRCCP) currently provides
