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

Proposed Project
Promoting Adolescent Health
Through School-Based HIV/STD
Prevention (OMB Control Number
0920–1049, expiration, 2/28/2018)—
Extension—National Center for HIV/
AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB
Prevention, Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Many young people engage in sexual
behaviors that place them at risk for HIV
infection, other sexually transmitted
diseases (STD), and pregnancy.
According to the 2011 National Youth
Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) results,
47% of U.S. high school students ever
had sexual intercourse; 34% had sexual
intercourse with at least one person
during the three months before the
survey; and 15% had had sexual
intercourse with four or more persons
during their lifetime. Of those sexually
active high school students, 40%
reported that either they or their partner
had not used a condom during last
sexual intercourse, and 77% reported
that either they or their partner had not
used birth control pills or Depo-Provera
(or any injectable birth control), Nuva
Ring (or any birth control ring),
Implanon (or any implant), or any
intrauterine device (IUD) before last
sexual intercourse.
Establishing healthy behaviors during
childhood and adolescence is easier and
more effective than trying to change
unhealthy behaviors during adulthood.
Since 1987, the Division of Adolescent
and School Health (DASH), which is
now a part of the National Center for
HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB
Prevention, Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC), has been a
unique source of support for HIV
prevention efforts in the Nation’s
schools.
Funded agencies include nongovernmental organizations, state
education agencies, and local education
agencies. The primary purpose of
Cooperative Agreement PS–13–1308 is
(1) to build the capacity of priority
districts and priority schools to

effectively contribute to the reduction of
HIV infection and other STD among
adolescents; (2) the reduction of
disparities in HIV infection and other
STD experienced by specific adolescent
sub-populations; and (3) the conducting
of school-based surveillance, a
component not included in this data
collection for evaluation.
During the previous approval period
we completed six rounds of data
collection and review, including the
completion of biannual progress reports
that provided our funded partners with
information on their progress towards
achieving the goals of PS13–1308. We
completed two annual reports that
summarized all of the data collected via
this information collection request and
provided our division and center
information on strengths and barriers to
the success of activities under funding
opportunity announcement PS13–1308.
Additionally, these findings have been
submitted to the upcoming American
Public Health Association 2017 meeting
for dissemination to broader public
health audiences.
We are requesting an OMB approval
for a one-year extension of the current
information collection request so that
we can gather performance monitoring
data for the remaining year of PS13–
1308. We will use this time to collect
data on the performance of PS13–1308
funded agencies to better inform our
program as they make decisions about
the progress of the current funding
opportunity and future funding
announcements.
CDC continue to use a web-based
system to collect data on the approaches
that funded agencies are using to meet
their goals. Approaches include helping
districts and schools deliver exemplary
sexual health education emphasizing
HIV and other STD prevention;
increasing adolescent access to key
sexual health services; and establishing
safe and supportive environments for
students and staff.
To track funded agency progress and
evaluate the effectiveness of program
activities, CDC will collect data using a
mix of process and performance
measures. Process measures, which all
funded agencies will complete, are
important to assess the extent to which
planned program activities have been
implemented and lead to feasible and
sustainable programmatic outcomes.
Process measures include items on

PO 00000

Frm 00056

school health policy assessment and
monitoring, and on providing training
and technical assistance to partner
education agencies and schools. Only
state and local education agencies will
complete performance measures to
assess whether funded activities at each
site are leading to intended outcomes
including public health impact of
systemic change in schools. These
measures drove the development of
questionnaires that have been tailored to
each funded agencies’ approach (i.e.,
exemplary sexual health education,
sexual health services, and safe and
supportive environments).
Respondents include 18 state
education agencies, 17 local education
agencies, and 6 non-governmental
organizations that have all been funded
under PS13–1308. The questionnaires
will be submitted to CDC semi-annually
using the Program Evaluation and
Reporting System, an electronic webbased interface specifically designed for
this data collection.
Each funded agency received a unique
log-in to the system and technical
assistance to ensure they can use the
system easily. The dates when data are
requested reflect Procurement and
Grants Office deadlines to provide
timely feedback to funded agencies and
CDC staff for accountability and optimal
use of funds. CDC anticipates that semiannual information collection will occur
in August 2017–July 2018.
The estimated burden per response
ranges from 0.5 hours to 6 hours. This
variation in burden is due to the
variability in the questions on the forms
based on the approach and type of
funded agency. For instance, nongovernmental organizations have fewer
questions to respond to because they
only have questions for process
evaluation. Local education agencies
have the highest burden because it takes
more time to gather information as they
gather data at the school- and studentlevel as compared with state education
agencies that report only state- and
district-level data. The annualized
burden of 804 hours is for all funded
agencies. The reduction in burden is a
result of one partner agency that
withdrew from participation.
There are no costs to respondents
other than their time.

Proposed Project
Assessment of Interventions Intended
to Protect Pregnant Women in Puerto
Rico from Zika virus Infections—
Existing Information Collection in Use
Without an OMB Control Number—
National Center for Emerging and
Zoonotic Infectious Diseases (NCEZID),
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
CDC intends to request OMB approval
of an Existing Information Collection in
Use Without an OMB Control Number.
CDC seeks OMB approval until
September 2017. This collection is a de
facto extension of OMB Control number
0920–1118 (expiration date 12/31/16),
an information collection request
approved by OMB under an emergency
review in June, 2016. This information
collection request includes continuing

(in hrs.)

one project which is part of CDC’s
ongoing response in Puerto Rico to the
Zika virus outbreak.
The goal of the project is to assess the
delivery and effects of interventions
implemented in Puerto Rico to protect
pregnant women from Zika virus
infections and the birth defects that Zika
virus can cause in their babies. As of
February 22, 2017, interventions that
have been implemented include Zika
Education Sessions (at Women, Infants,
and Children [WIC] clinics), Zika
Prevention Kits, communications
activities, and vector control services in
and around the home of pregnant
women [Indoor Residual Spraying (IRS),
Outdoor Residual Spraying (ORS), and
larviciding].
Information collected in this
assessment will be used to help refine
interventions that have been conducted
to prevent and control Zika virus in
Puerto Rico and to assess which
interventions reduce risk and/or offer
protection from Zika virus infections.
Telephone interviews will be
conducted with pregnant women in
Puerto Rico. CDC needs this assessment
to ensure that Zika prevention activities
effectively educate, equip, and
encourage women to participate in as
many Zika prevention behaviors as
possible. On-going assessment is an
important part of this program because
it can reveal novel ways that women
protect themselves from Zika, how
effective the distribution of the Zika
Prevention Kit has been in Puerto Rico,
perceived severity and susceptibility to
Zika, pregnant women’s self-efficacy in
protecting themselves from Zika after
the interventions have been
implemented, as well as the extent to
which target populations are using
contents of the Zika Prevention Kit.
