Proposed Data Collection Submitted for Public Comment and
Recommendations
AGENCY: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Department of
Health and Human Services (HHS).
ACTION: Notice with comment period.

SUMMARY: The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), as part
of its continuing effort to reduce public burden and maximize the
utility of government information, invites the general public and other
Federal agencies the opportunity to comment on a proposed and/or
continuing information collection, as required by the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995. This notice invites comment on a proposed
information collection project titled `Templates for Extramural Data
Management Plans.' The aim of this collection is to provide Cooperative
Agreement applicants and awardees with templates for the creation of
Data Management Plans (DMP).
DATES: CDC must receive written comments on or before October 7, 2019.
ADDRESSES: You may submit comments, identified by Docket No. CDC-2019-
0062 by any of the following methods: Federal eRulemaking Portal:
Regulations.gov. Follow the instructions for submitting comments.
Mail: Jeffrey M. Zirger, Information Collection Review
Office, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 1600 Clifton Road
NE, MS-D74, Atlanta, Georgia 30329.
Instructions: All submissions received must include the agency name
and Docket Number. CDC will post, without change, all relevant comments
to Regulations.gov.
Please note: Submit all comments through the Federal eRulemaking
portal (regulations.gov) or by U.S. mail to the address listed above.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: To request more information on the
proposed project or to obtain a copy of the information collection plan
and instruments, contact Jeffrey Zirger, Information Collection Review

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;
[[Page 38988]]
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; and
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.
5. Assess information collection costs.
Proposed Project
Templates for Extramural Data Management Plans--New--National
Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP),
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Data management plans (DMPs) are required of entities using CDC
funds to collect or generate public health data. DMPs will be submitted
to CDC by grant and cooperative agreement awardees for assessment to
verify that they are concordant with CDC's data sharing policy.
Currently, CDC does not have a standard template for a DMP. DMPs can be
a checklist, paragraph, or any other format. Due to this fact, CDC has
had to refer extramural applicants and recipients to external websites
for examples on how to construct a DMP. This new ICR is being developed
by CDC's National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health
Promotion (NCCDPHP) to create standardized templates for DMPs so that
they will be easier to create, easier to review, better ensure
compliance with CDC's requirements, and increase the likelihood of
first time approval by project officers. DMPs will be submitted as
standalone sections of the Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) and
annual continuation applications; revisions can also be submitted by
the awardees as needed. CDC requests approval for 933 Burden Hours.
There are no costs to respondents other than their time.
