Emergency ICR is submitted to allow
CDC to conduct post-arrival symptom monitoring of travelers who
have been in the Marburg Virus outbreak area and to evaluate the
impact of rerouting and public health entry screening on
travelers.
Approval of this
Emergency ICR is essential to CDC’s ability to assess risk of
symptoms or exposure to Marburg virus disease (MVD) in travelers
coming to the United States from areas affected by an outbreak of
MVD originating in Rwanda..Given the quickly changing situation, it
is not feasible for CDC to consult with members of the public or
other agencies or organizations regarding this information
collection. CDC has consulted with state and local health
departments and has incorporated their feedback into the data
collection instruments and workflow processes. Based on state and
local health department input, CDC was able to tailor the
information collection to meet critical emergency response needs
while also ensuring travelers, along with state and local health
departments were not overly burdened with this collection. CDC
requests authorization to use information collection instruments
for 180 days to mitigate the risk of the importation and spread of
MVD in the United States. If an emergency approval is not granted,
then the spread of MVD to and within the United States is more
likely.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
