This information collection ensures
that, consistent with the authorities in the Public Health Service
Act and in Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), CDC can collect
conveyance, passenger and crew member manifest information
(manifests) and Passenger Locator Forms (PLF) in the event an
individual with a confirmed or suspected case of a communicable
disease is known to have traveled on an interstate flight while
infectious or potentially infectious and presented a risk of spread
to other passengers or crew. This is collected so CDC can initiate
the process of contact tracing or provision of other public health
follow up to prevent further disease spread. The Non-Substantive
Change Request, is submitted for the addition of a web-based
version of the PLF.
