revision of the Clinical Laboratory
Improvement Amendment (CLIA)
standards. Examples include providing
guidance on studies designed to
improve safety, effectiveness, efficiency,
timeliness, equity, and patientcenteredness of laboratory services;
revisions to the standards under which
clinical laboratories are regulated; the
impact of proposed revisions to the
standards on medical and laboratory
practice; and the modification of the
standards and provision of nonregulatory guidelines to accommodate
technological advances, such as new
test methods, the electronic
transmission of laboratory information,
and mechanisms to improve the
integration of public health and clinical
laboratory practices.

general public and other Federal
agencies the opportunity to comment on
a proposed and/or continuing
information collection, as required by
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
This notice invites comment on a
proposed information collection project
titled 2021 and 2023 National Youth
Risk Behavior Surveys (YRBS). CDC is
requesting a three-year approval to
reinstate, with changes, the data
collection for the national YRBS, a
biennially school-based survey of high
school students in the United States.
DATES: CDC must receive written
comments on or before April 28, 2020.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments,
identified by Docket No. CDC–2020–
0015 by any of the following methods:
• Federal eRulemaking Portal:
Regulations.gov. Follow the instructions
for submitting 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
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

OMB approval for the 2017 YRBS and
2019 YRBS expired September 30, 2019
(OMB Control No. 0920–0493). CDC
seeks a three-year approval to conduct
the YRBS in Spring 2021 and Spring
2023. Minor changes incorporated into
this reinstatement request include: An
updated title for the information
collection to accurately reflect the years
in which the survey will be conducted,
minor changes to the data collection
instrument, and the use of a tablet-based
data collection methodology starting in
2023.
The YRBS assesses priority health risk
behaviors related to the major
preventable causes of mortality,
morbidity, and social problems among
both youth and young adults in the
United States. Data on health risk
behaviors of adolescents are the focus of
approximately 65 national health
objectives in Healthy People 2030, an
initiative of the U.S. Department of
Health and Human Services (HHS). The
YRBS provides data to measure 13 of
the proposed health objectives and one
of the Leading Health Indicators
currently under public comment to
establish Healthy People 2030
objectives. In addition, the YRBS can
identify racial and ethnic disparities in
health risk behaviors. No other national
source of data measures as many of the
Healthy People 2030 objectives
addressing adolescent health risk
behaviors as the YRBS. The data also
will have significant implications for
policy and program development for
school health programs nationwide.
In Spring 2021 and Spring 2023, the
YRBS will be conducted among
nationally representative samples of
students attending public and private
schools in grades 9–12. Information
supporting the YRBS also will be
collected from state-, district-, and
school-level administrators and
teachers. The table below reports the
number of respondents annualized over
the three-year project period. There are
no costs to respondents except their
time. The total estimated annualized
burden hours are 6,259.

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 the OMB for approval. To
comply with this requirement, we are
publishing this notice of a proposed
data collection as described below.
The OMB is particularly interested in
comments that will help:
1. Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
2. Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
3. Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
4. Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submissions
of responses.
5. Assess information collection costs.

ACTION: Request for public comment.
AGENCY:

A goal of the Performance
Measures and Adulthood Preparation
Subjects (PMAPS) studies is to collect,
analyze, and report on performance
measure data for the Personal
Responsibility Education Program
(PREP) programs. The Office of
Planning, Research, and Evaluation
(OPRE) and the Family and Youth
Services Bureau (FYSB) in the

SUMMARY:

Administration for Children and
Families (ACF) request a revision to a
currently approved information
collection (OMB No. 0970–0497;
expiration date: 04/30/2020). The
purpose of the request is to make
adaptions to the participant entry and
exit surveys, and continue the ongoing
data collection of the performance
measures from PREP grantees.
DATES: Comments due within 60 days of
publication. In compliance with the
requirements of Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995,
the Administration for Children and
Families is soliciting public comment
on the specific aspects of the
information collection described above.
ADDRESSES: Copies of the proposed
collection of information can be
obtained and comments may be
forwarded by emailing
[email protected].
Alternatively, copies can also be
obtained by writing to the
Administration for Children and
Families, Office of Planning, Research,
and Evaluation, 330 C Street SW,
Washington, DC 20201, Attn: OPRE
Reports Clearance Officer. All requests,
emailed or written, should be identified
by the title of the information collection.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Description: The PMAPS studies
consist of two components: The
Performance Measures Study and the
Adulthood Preparation Subjects Study.

The data collection for the Adulthood
Preparation Subjects Study is complete.
This notice is specific to a request for an
extension of data collection activities for
the Performance Measures Study only.
The Performance Measures Study
component includes collection and
analysis of performance measure data
from State PREP (SPREP), Tribal PREP
(TPREP), Competitive PREP (CPREP),
and Personal Responsibility Education
Innovative Strategies (PREIS) grantees.
Data will be used to determine if PREP
and PREIS grantees are meeting
performance benchmarks related to the
program’s mission and priorities.
This request includes the
development of adapted participant
entry and exit surveys for middle school
students (6th, 7th, and 8th grade youth)
that exclude the most sensitive
questions pertaining to sexual behavior.
This is because some of the PREP
middle school curricula do not include
topics on sexual behavior, i.e., focus
only on healthy relationship education.
The adapted surveys will be used by all
grantees that serve middle school youth.
In addition, some minor edits have been
made to the high school surveys.
Respondents: Performance
measurement data collection
instruments will be administered to
individuals representing SPREP, TPREP,
CPREP, and PREIS grantees, their subawardees, and program participants.
