Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request: National Database for 
Autism Research (NDAR) Data Access Request

SUMMARY: Under the provisions of Section 3507(a)(1)(D) of the Paperwork 
Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995, the National Institute of Mental Health 
(NIMH), the National Institutes of Health (NIH) has submitted to the 
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request for review and approval 
of the information collection listed below. This proposed information 
collection was previously published in the Federal Register on June 22, 
2012, page 37683-37684 (2 pages) and allowed 60-days for public 
comment. No public comments were received. The purpose of this notice 
is to allow an additional 30 days for public comment. The National 
Institutes of Health may not conduct or sponsor, and the respondent is 
not required to respond to, an information collection that has been 
extended, revised, or implemented on or after October 1, 1995, unless 
it displays a currently valid OMB control number.
    Proposed Collection: Title: National Database for Autism Research 
(NDAR) Data Access Request. Type of Information Collection Request: 
0925-NEW. Need and Use of Information Collection: The NDAR Data Access 
Request form is necessary for ``Recipient'' Principal Investigators and 
their organization or corporations with approved assurance from the 
DHHS Office of Human Research Protections to access data or images from 
the NDAR Central Repository for research purposes. The primary use of 
this information is to document, track, monitor, and evaluate the use 
of the NDAR datasets, as well as to notify interested recipients of 
updates, corrections or other changes to the database. Frequency of 
Response: Once per request. Affected Public: Individuals. Type of 
Respondents: Researchers interested in obtaining access to study data 
and images from the NDAR Central Repository for research purposes. 
There are no capital, operating, and/or maintenance costs to the 
respondents.
    There are two scenarios for completing the form. The first where 
the Principal Investigator (PI) completes the entire NDAR Data Access 
Request form, and the second where the PI has the Research Assistant 
begin filling out the form and PI provides the final reviews and signs 
it. The total estimated annual burden hours to complete data request 
form is listed below.
