since 1999 to build state health
department infrastructure and capacity
to implement comprehensive tobacco
prevention and control programs.
Through these cooperative agreements,
health departments in all 50 states, the
District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and
Guam are funded to implement
evidence-based environmental, policy,
and systems strategies and activities
designed to reduce tobacco use,
secondhand smoke exposure, tobacco
related disparities and associated
disease, disability, and death. CDC
plans to request OMB approval to
collect information from the 53 statebased programs funded under both
DP15–1509 and DP14–1410PPHF14.
Awardees will report information about
their work plan objectives, activities,
infrastructure, and performance
measures. Each awardee will submit an
Annual Work Plan Progress Report
using an Excel-based Work Plan Tool.
The estimated burden per response on
each of the abovementioned tools is six
hours for each. Each awardee will
submit an Annual Performance Measure
report using an Excel-based
Performance Measures tool. The

estimated burden per response on each
of the abovementioned tools is five
hours for each. Each awardee will
submit an Annual Progress Report
(APR) using an Excel-based APR tool.
The estimated burden per response on
each of the abovementioned tools is 18
hours for each. Each awardee will
submit an Annual Component Model of
Infrastructure (CMI) using an Excelbased CMI tool. The estimated burden
per response on each of the
abovementioned tools is three hours for
each. In addition, each awardee will
submit an Annual Budget Progress
Report using an Excel-based Budget
Tool. The estimated burden per
response is five hours for each Annual
Budget Progress Report. The same
instruments will be used for all
information collection and reporting
throughout the OMB approval period.
Awardees will upload their information
to www.grantssolutions.gov on an
annual basis to satisfy routine
cooperative agreement reporting
requirements.
CDC will use the information
collected to monitor each awardee’s
progress and to identify facilitators and

challenges to program implementation
and achievement of outcomes.
Monitoring allows CDC to determine
whether an awardee is meeting
performance and budget goals and to
make adjustments in the type and level
of technical assistance provided to
them, as needed, to support attainment
of their performance measures.
Monitoring and evaluation activities
also allow CDC to provide oversight of
the use of federal funds, and to identify
and disseminate information about
successful prevention and control
strategies implemented by awardees.
These functions are central to
NCCDPHP’s broad mission of reducing
the burden of chronic diseases. Finally,
the information collection will allow
CDC to monitor the increased emphasis
on partnerships and programmatic
collaboration, and is expected to reduce
duplication of effort, enhance program
impact and maximize the use of federal
funds.
OMB approval is requested for three
years. Participation in the information
collection is required as a condition of
funding. There are no costs to
respondents other than their time.

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.
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.

students attending public and private
schools in grades 6–12, and will be
administered to students as a digitallybased survey programmed onto tablets.
Information supporting the NYTS also
will be collected from state-, district-,
and school-level administrators and
teachers. During the 2021–2023
timeframe, changes will be incorporated
that reflect CDC’s ongoing collaboration
with FDA and the need to measure
progress toward meeting strategic goals
established by the Family Smoking
Prevention and Tobacco Control Act.
Information collection will occur
annually and may include a number of
new questions, as well as increased
representation of minority youth.
The survey will examine the
following topics: Use of e-cigarettes,
cigarettes, cigars, smokeless tobacco,
hookahs, roll-your own-cigarettes,
pipes, snus, dissolvable tobacco, bidis,
heated tobacco products, and nicotine
pouches; knowledge and attitudes;
media and advertising; access to tobacco
products and enforcement of restrictions
on access; secondhand smoke and ecigarette aerosol exposure; provision of
school- and community-based
interventions, and cessation.
Results of the NYTS will continue to
be used to inform and evaluate the
National Comprehensive Tobacco
Control Program; provide data to inform
the Department of Health and Human
Service’s Tobacco Control Strategic
Action Plan, and provide national
benchmark data for state-level Youth
Tobacco Surveys. Information collected
through the NYTS also is expected to
provide multiple measures and data for
monitoring progress on seven tobaccorelated objectives for Healthy People
2030.
OMB approval will be requested for
three years. There are no costs to
respondents other than their time.

Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Tobacco use is the leading cause of
preventable disease and death in the
United States, and nearly all tobacco use
begins during youth and young
adulthood. A limited number of health
risk behaviors, including tobacco use,
account for the overwhelming majority
of immediate and long-term sources of
morbidity and mortality. Because many
health risk behaviors are established
during adolescence, there is a critical
need for public health programs
directed towards youth, and for
information to support these programs.
Since 2004, the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC) has
periodically collected information about
tobacco use among adolescents
(National Youth Tobacco Survey
(NYTS) 2004, 2006, 2009, 2011, 2012,
2013–2019, OMB Control No. 0920–
0621, Exp. 04/30/2021). This
surveillance activity builds on previous
surveys funded by the American Legacy
Foundation in 1999, 2000, and 2002.
At present, the NYTS is the most
comprehensive source of nationally
representative tobacco data among
students in grades 9–12, moreover, the
NYTS is the only source of such data for
students in grades 6–8. The NYTS has
provided national estimates of tobacco
use behaviors, information about
exposure to pro- and anti-tobacco
influences, and information about racial
and ethnic disparities in tobacco-related
topics. Information collected through
the NYTS is used to identify trends over
time, to inform the development of
tobacco cessation programs for youth,
and to evaluate the effectiveness of
existing interventions and programs.
CDC plans to request OMB approval
to conduct additional cycles of the
NYTS in 2021, 2022, and 2023. The
survey will be conducted among
nationally representative samples of
