continuing information collection, as required by the Paperwork 
Reduction Act of 1995. This notice invites comment on a proposed 
information collection project titled Management Information Systems

aims to facilitate the monitoring of National Comprehensive Cancer 
Control Program awardee performance and submission of timely and 
accurate responses to inquiries from Congress and other stakeholders.

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;
    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

    Management Information Systems for Comprehensive Cancer Control 
Programs (OMB Control No. 0920-0841, Exp. 6/30/2019)--Reinstatement 
with Change--National Center for Chronic Disease and Health Promotion 
(NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    In 2017, 66 awardees, representing all 50 states, the District of 
Columbia, seven United States Association Pacific Islands and 
territories, and eight tribes and tribal organizations, were selected 
for funding under NOFO (DP171701DP17-1701, ``Cancer Prevention and 
Control Programs for State, Territorial, and Tribal Organizations''). 
Under this cooperative agreement, awardees implement cancer prevention 
and control programs to reduce cancer morbidity, mortality, and 
disparities. To facilitate program monitoring, performance assessment, 
and evaluation, a web-based management information system is needed for 
collection and abstraction of information about program resources, 
partnerships, work plan activities, and evaluation efforts.
    CDC is requesting OMB approval for the continued use of the 
Management Information System to collect, store, retrieve, share, and 
report accurate and timely information. OMB approval is requested for 
the term of three years, which coincides with the last three years of 
the program. All 66 awardees will submit information on data elements 
in the Management Information System annually for a total estimated 
burden of 66 hours. Information collected will be analyzed and used in 
aggregate to describe program efforts. Participation is voluntary and 
there are no costs to respondents other than their time.
