Please prepare and attach a short summary paragraph (<1 page);
if this is new:
a.

Be sure to include the purpose of the project, specific details about the project and the role of the CDC staff member
(s) in the project. In explaining one's role as a consultant be particularly careful to identify involvement in things
like: study design decisions, oversight of protocol development, participation in review of data collection procedures,
and particpation in data analysis and/or manuscript preparation, as well as whether there will be access to
identifiable or personal data.

b.

Explain your project status selection (research--non-exempt, exempt, no CDC investigator or not involving human
subjects; public health practice). If you selected research not involving human subjects be sure to indicate if the data
includes any personal information (e.g., name, SSN), linkable study identification numbers or codes, or geographical
information.
This public health project data collection is Comprehensive Smokeless Tobacco Health Education Act of 1986 (15 U.S.C. '
4401 et seq.;) requires each commercial entity that manufactures, packages, or imports smokeless tobacco products to
provide HHS (through CDC) with a list of ingredients added to tobacco in the manufacture of smokeless tobacco products.
Respondents are commercial smokeless tobacco product manufacturers, packagers, or importers. Manufacturers submit a
summary report to CDC with the ingredient information for multiple products. This ICR has been reviewed by staff in CDC who
have determined that the Privacy Act is not applicable.
Respondents are business entities, not individuals. Each respondent entity is represented by a contact person; however, no
personal information is being collected. All information is filed and retrieved by name of the smokeless tobacco product
manufacturer or the attorney representing the manufacturer, therefore, the information does not fall under the purview of the
Privacy Act.
CDC staff members on this project include a project officer, information collector and a data analyst.

Please list the primary project site and all collaborating site(s).
