Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 163 / Wednesday, August 22, 2018 / Notices
Background and Brief Description
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention’s (CDC), National Center for
Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious
Diseases (NCEZID), Division of Global
Migration and Quarantine (DGMQ),
Immigrant, Refugee, and Migrant Health
Branch (IRMH), requests approval for a
revision of an existing information
collection. This project pertains to
collecting annual reports on certain
tuberculosis data from U.S. panel
physicians.
The respondents are panel physicians.
More than 760 panel physicians from
336 panel sites perform overseas predeparture medical examinations in
accordance with requirements, referred
to as technical instructions, provided by
DGMQs Quality Assessment Program
(QAP). The role of QAP is to assist and
guide panel physicians in the
implementation of the Technical
Instructions; evaluate the quality of the
overseas medical examination for U.S.bound immigrants and refugees; assess
potential panel physician sites; and
provide recommendations to the U.S.
Department of State in matters of
immigrant medical screening.
To achieve DGMQ’s mission, the
Immigrant, Refugee and Migrant Health

these classifications to report new
immigrant and refugee arrivals with a
higher risk of developing TB disease to
U.S. state and local health departments
for further follow-up. Some information
that panel physicians collect as part of
the medical exam is not reported on the
standard Department of State forms (DSforms), thereby preventing CDC from
evaluating TB trends in globally mobile
populations and monitoring program
effectiveness.
Currently, CDC is requesting this data
be sent by panel physicians once per
year. The consequences of reducing this
frequency would be the loss of
monitoring program impact and TB
burdens in mobile populations and
immigrants and refugees coming to the
United States on an annual basis. The
total hours requested is 1,008. There is
no cost to the respondents other than
their time.
Estimated annual burden is being
reduced by 1,640 hours per year. The
number of respondents is being reduced
by 17. Reductions are due to revised
estimates on burden time per response,
and the removal of four variables from
the data collection form and improved
IT capacity at most panel sites.

branch (IRMH) works with domestic
and international programs to improve
the health of U.S.-bound immigrants
and refugees to protect the U.S. public
by preventing the importation of
infectious disease. These goals are
accomplished through IRMH’s oversight
of medical exams required for all U.S.bound immigrants and refugees who
seek permanent residence in the U.S.
IRMH is responsible for assisting and
training the international panel
physicians with the implementation of
medical exam Technical Instructions
(TI). Technical Instructions are detailed
requirements and national policies
regarding the medical screening and
treatment of all U.S.-bound immigrants
and refugees.
Screening for tuberculosis (TB) is a
particularly important component of the
immigration medical exam and allows
panel physicians to diagnose active TB
disease prior to arrival in the United
States. As part of the Technical
Instructions requirements, panel
physicians perform chest x-rays and
laboratory tests that aid in the
identification of tuberculosis infection
(Class B1 applicants) and diagnosis of
active tuberculosis disease (Class A,
inadmissible applicants). CDC uses

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 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,

Service (CAS) Registration Number,
consistent with accepted reporting
practices for other companies that are
required to report ingredients added to
other consumer products. Typically,
respondents submit a summary report to
CDC with the ingredient information for
multiple products, or a statement that
there are no changes to their previously
submitted ingredient report.
Respondents may submit the required
information to CDC through a
designated representative. The
information collection is subject to strict
confidentiality provisions.
Ingredient reports for new SLT
products are due at the time of first
importation. Thereafter, ingredient
reports are due annually on March 31.
Information is submitted to CDC by
mailing a written report on the
respondent’s letterhead, by CD, threeinch floppy disk, or thumb drive.
Electronic mail submissions are not
accepted. Annual submission reports
are mailed to Attention: FCLAA
Program Manager, Office on Smoking
and Health, National Center for Chronic
Disease Prevention and Health
Promotion, Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention, 4770 Buford Highway
NE, MS S107–7, Atlanta, GA 30341–
3717.
Upon receipt and verification of the
annual nicotine and ingredient report,
CDC issues a Certificate of Compliance
to the respondent. As deemed
appropriate by the Secretary of HHS,
HHS is authorized to use the
information to report to Congress the
health effects of ingredients, research
activities related to the health effects of
ingredients, and other information that
the Secretary determines to be of public
interest. The estimated annual Burden
Hours are 18,843. There are no costs to
respondents other than their time. OMB
approval is requested for three years.

Contained in, Smokeless Tobacco
Manufactured, Imported, or Packaged in
the U. S.—Extension—National Center
for Chronic Disease Prevention and
Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Smokeless tobacco products (SLT) are
associated with many health problems.
Using smokeless tobacco: Can lead to
nicotine addiction; causes cancer of the
mouth, esophagus, and pancreas; is
associated with diseases of the mouth;
can increase risks for early delivery and
stillbirth when used during pregnancy;
can cause nicotine poisoning in
children; and, may increase the risk for
death from heart disease and stroke.
The CDC’s Office on Smoking and
Health (OSH) has the primary
responsibility for the HHS smoking and
health program. As required by the
Comprehensive Smokeless Tobacco
Health Education Act of 1986 (CSTHEA,
15 U.S.C. 4401 et seq., Pub. L. 99–252),
CDC collects a list of ingredients added
to tobacco in the manufacture of
smokeless tobacco products and a
specification of the quantity of nicotine
contained in each product. HHS has
delegated responsibility for
implementing the required information
collection to CDC’s OSH. Respondents
are manufacturers, packagers, or
importers (or their representatives) of
smokeless tobacco products.
Respondents are not required to submit
specific forms; however, they are
required to meet reporting guidelines
and to submit the ingredient report by
