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;
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; and.
5. Assess information collection costs.
Proposed Project
CDC Fellowship Programs
Assessments (OMB Control No. 0920–
1163, Exp. 03/31/2026)—Revision—
National Center for State, Tribal, Local,
and Territorial Public Health
Infrastructure and Workforce
(NCSTLTPHIW), Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
CDC’s mission is to protect America
from health, safety, and security threats,
both foreign and in the U.S. To ensure
a competent, sustainable, and
empowered public health workforce
prepared to meet these challenges, CDC
plays a key role in developing,
implementing, and managing a number

of fellowship programs. A fellowship is
defined as training or work experience
lasting at least one month and
consisting of primarily experiential (i.e.,
on-the-job) learning, in which the
trainee has a designated mentor or
supervisor. CDC fellowships are
intended to develop public health
professionals, enhance the public health
workforce, and strengthen
collaborations with partners in public
health and healthcare organizations,
academia, and other stakeholders in
governmental and non-governmental
organizations. Assessing fellowship
activities is essential to ensure that
these programs are optimized and that
the public health workforce is equipped
to promote and protect the public’s
health.
CDC requests a three-year Revision of
a Generic Clearance to collect data about
its fellowship programs. Data
collections will allow for ongoing,
collaborative, and actionable
communications between CDC
fellowship programs and interest
holders (e.g., fellows, supervisors/
mentors, alumni). Intended use of the
resulting information is to:
• guide planning, implementation,
and continuous quality improvement of
fellowship activities and services;
• improve efficiencies in the delivery
of fellowship activities and services;
and
• determine to what extent fellowship
activities and services are achieving
established goals.
Collection and use of information
about CDC fellowship activities will
help ensure effective, efficient, and
satisfying experiences among fellowship
program participants and interest
holders.
CDC estimates that annually, a subset
of CDC’s various fellowship programs
will conduct one query each with one
of the three respondent groups:
fellowship applicants or fellows;
mentors, supervisors, or employers; and
alumni. These collections might include
short surveys, interviews, and focus
groups.
In this Revision, CDC is revising the
estimated number of responses and the
estimated burden hours. Lower than
anticipated usage for the active approval
period and organizational changes at
CDC support the request to reduce these
estimates. The estimated annualized
number of respondents is reduced from
3,091 to 1,225, and the estimated
annualized burden hours are reduced
from 1,546 to 550. In addition, CDC is
standardizing the title of the generic as
‘‘CDC Fellowship Programs
Assessments.’’ This title is used on the
GENIC Request Template associated

with the Generic and has been used on
previous Supporting Statement
documents. The title ‘‘Data Collection
for CDC Fellowship Programs’’ has also
been associated with OMB Control No.

0920–1163. For clarity CDC will amend
all documentation and consistently use
the title ‘‘CDC Fellowship Programs
Assessments.’’ No other changes are
required.

OMB approval is requested for three
years. CDC requests OMB approval for
an estimated 550 annual burden hours.
There are no costs to respondents other
than their time.

the event of a disease outbreak overseas
that would necessitate the public health
assessment and/or monitoring of
travelers arriving in the U.S. Section 361
of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act
(42 U.S.C. 264) authorizes the Secretary
of Health and Human Services (HHS) to
make and enforce regulations necessary
to prevent the introduction,
transmission, or spread of
communicable diseases from foreign
countries into and within the United
States. Under its delegated authority,
the Division of Global Migration Health
(DGMH) works to fulfill this
responsibility through a variety of
activities, including the operation of
port health stations at U.S. ports of entry
and administration of foreign quarantine
regulations; 42 Code of Federal
Regulation part 71, specifically 42 CFR
71.20 Public health prevention
measures to detect communicable
disease.
Additionally, on February 21, 2020,
CDC issued an interim final rule (IFR)
to amend its Foreign Quarantine
regulations, to enable CDC to require
airlines to collect, and provide to CDC,
certain data regarding passengers and
crew arriving from foreign countries for
the purposes of health education,
treatment, prophylaxis, or other
appropriate public health interventions,
including travel restrictions. CDC’s
authority for collecting such data is
contained in 42 CFR 71.4.
Under this IFR, airlines must transmit
these data to CDC within 24 hours of an
order. The order Requirement for
Airlines and Operators to Collect and
Transmit Designated Information for
Passengers and Crew Arriving Into the
United States; Requirement for
Passengers to Provide Designated
Information requiring the collection of
this information was issued on October
25, 2021, and went into effect on
November 8, 2021. Under this Order,
airlines may transmit the required
