Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork Reduction Act Review

    In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the Centers 
for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has submitted the information 
collection request titled, The Childcare Survey of Activity and 
Wellness (C-SAW) Pilot Study to the Office of Management and Budget 
(OMB) for review and approval. CDC previously published a ``Proposed 
Data Collection Submitted for Public Comment and Recommendations'' 
notice on April 2, 2019 to obtain comments from the public and affected 
agencies. CDC received two public comments related to the previous 
notice. This notice serves to allow an additional 30 days for public 
and affected agency comments.
    CDC will accept all comments for this proposed information 
collection project. The Office of Management and Budget is particularly 
interested in comments that:
    (a) 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;
    (b) Evaluate the accuracy of the agencies estimate of the burden of 
the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the 
methodology and assumptions used;
    (c) Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to 
be collected;
    (d) 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 submission of responses; and
    (e) Assess information collection costs.
    To request additional information on the proposed project or to 
obtain a copy of the information collection plan and instruments, call 
(404) 639-7570 or send an email to [email protected]. Direct written comments 
and/or suggestions regarding the items contained in this notice to the 
Attention: CDC Desk Officer, Office of Management and Budget, 725 17th 
Street NW, Washington, DC 20503 or by fax to (202) 395-5806. Provide 
written comments within 30 days of notice publication.

Background and Brief Description

    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) works to 
promote optimal nutrition, physical activity, and wellness in early 
care and education (ECE) facilities for children 0-5 years of age. Data 
collected from this pilot survey will be used to understand the current 
practices of ECE centers in a representative sample in four states. The 
survey will also be used to inform the development of a potential 
national surveillance system.
    A sample of approximately 1,266 ECE centers across four states will 
be selected to participate in this one-time data collection effort. 
However, it is estimated that approximately 10% of the original sample 
will be out of business or otherwise ineligible, yielding an actual 
sample of 1,140 ECEs to be recruited. Each center will receive a 
recruitment letter introducing the survey, and instructions for 
completing the survey. It is anticipated that most responses will be 
submitted through the web. However, paper surveys will be available 
upon request. It is also anticipated that the response rate will be 
approximately 55% based on a review of recent surveys of child care 
centers conducted by the Federal government. Thus, we anticipate the 
number of completed surveys to be 627. CDC requests approval for an 
estimated 409 Burden Hours. Participation in this study is completely 
voluntary and there are no costs to the respondent other than their 
time.
