    Abstract: The Office of Population Affairs within the Office of the 
Assistant Secretary for Health is requesting an extension on a 
currently approved Family Planning Annual Report (FPAR) data collection 
and reporting tool (OMB No. 0990-0221). This annual reporting 
requirement is for family planning services delivery projects 
authorized and funded by the Title X Family Planning Program 
[``Population Research and Voluntary Family Planning Programs'' (Public 
Law 91-572)], which was enacted in 1970 as Title X of the Public Health 
Service Act (Section 1001; 42 U.S.C. 300). The FPAR data collection and 
reporting tool will include a new module to collect

substance use disorder (SUD) screening data in this request to extend 
an OMB approval to collect essential, annual data from Title X 
grantees.
    Need and Proposed Use of the Information: The Title X Family 
Planning Program (``Title X program'' or ``program'') is the only 
Federal grant program dedicated solely to providing individuals with 
comprehensive family planning and related preventive health services 
(e.g., screening for breast and cervical cancer, sexually transmitted 
diseases (STDs), and human immunodeficiency virus). By law, priority is 
given to persons from low-income families (Section 1006[c] of Title X 
of the Public Health Service Act, 42 U.S.C. 300). The Office of 
Population Affairs (OPA) within the Office of the Assistant Secretary 
for Health administers the Title X program.
    Likely Respondents: Respondents for this annual reporting 
requirement are centers that receive funding directly from OPA for 
family planning services authorized and funded under the Title X 
Family.
    This weighted average hour burden accounts for differences in 
reporting burden by type of grantee agency grantee (e.g., public health 
department or private agency), as found in the 2009 FPAR Burden Study. 
For purposes of this estimate, the average hour burden ranges between 
39 hours (public health department) and 32 hours (private agency).
