Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork Reduction Act Review

    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) publishes a 
list of information collection requests under review by the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) in compliance with the Paperwork Reduction 
Act (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35). To request a copy of these requests, call 
the CDC Reports Clearance Officer at (404) 639-7090. Send written 
comments to CDC, Desk Officer; Human Resources and Housing Branch, New 
Executive Office Building, Room 10235; Washington, DC 20503. Written 
comments should be received within 30 days of this notice.

Proposed Project

    Information Collection Procedures for Evaluating Toxicological 
Profiles (0923-0020)--Extension--Agency for Toxic Substance and Disease 
Registry (ATSDR). The Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry 
(ATSDR) is mandated pursuant to the 1980 Comprehensive Environmental 
Response Compensation and Liability

[[Page 69021]]

Act (CERCLA) and its 1986 Amendments, The Superfund Amendments and 
Reauthorization Act (SARA), to prepare toxicological profiles in 
accordance with guidelines developed by ATSDR and EPA. Each profile is 
revised and republished as necessary, but no less often than every 
three years. The principal audiences for the toxicological profiles are 
health professionals at the federal, state, and local levels, 
interested private sector organizations and groups, and members of the 
public.
    This is a request for a three-year extension of a previously 
approved data collection to collect information pertaining to: (a) 
Affiliation of users of the profiles, (b) clarity of discussion in the 
profiles, (c) consistency of information in the profiles, (d) 
completeness of information in the profile, and (e) utility of 
information in the profile.
    The information will be used to maintain customer satisfaction 
concerning use of the profiles by these multi-disciplinary users. This 
will also ensure that we continue to provide a client-oriented product. 
This effort will be accomplished through enhancement of the system used 
for updating existing toxicological profiles and improving the utility 
of newly developed profiles by use of these user surveys. There is no 
cost to respondents. The estimated burden hours to respondents are 250.
