Abstract: CDC's Tracking Program collects, integrates, analyzes, and disseminates data on health, exposure, environmental hazards, and populations in order to drive public health actions that mitigate or prevent the effects of environmental factors on the health of communities. Respondents include 26 funded grantees and unfunded state and local health departments (SLHD). These data are used to describe trends, identify populations at risk, generate hypotheses, and inform public health actions for SLHD. Additional program information collected quarterly or annually are used to evaluate and assess program performance is collected using 6 forms. This Revision seeks approval for minor changes to both the racking and the program data components of the collection along with an increase in respondents. These changes will cause a slight increase in the burden hours.

Short Statement: The program data will increase the number of respondents from 26 to 37 to incorporate the 7 new recipients funded under CDC-RFA-EH22-2202, potential future funding of new SLHD, and to collect voluntary responses from unfunded SLHD. Based on the above changes, we are requesting to increase the annualized number of responses from 599 to 635 (due to an increased number of recipients) but decrease the annualized time burden from 21,860 to 14,384 hours.
