SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This proposed information collection was 
previously published in the Federal Register on July 16, 2024, 89 FR 
57915, and allowed 60 days for public comment (https://www.federalregister.gov/d/2024-15588). No public comments were 
received. The purpose of this notice is to allow an additional 30 days 
for public comment.
    The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), National Institutes 
of Health (NIH), 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.
    In compliance with Section 3507(a)(1)(D) of the Paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995, the NIH has submitted to the Office of Management and 
Budget (OMB) a request for review and approval of the information 
collection listed below.
    Proposed Collection: NIH NeuroBioBank Tissue Access Request and 
Progress Report Forms, REVISION, OMB #0925-0723, exp., date 10/31/2024, 
National Institute of Mental Health, National Institutes of Health 
(NIH).
    Need and Use of Information Collection: This request serves as 
notice that the National Institutes of Health (NIH) plans to continue 
supporting the research community studying neurological, developmental, 
and psychiatric disorders by coordinating access to human post-mortem 
brain tissue and related biospecimens stored by our federation of 
networked brain and tissue repositories known as the NIH NeuroBioBank. 
To facilitate this process, researchers wishing to obtain brain tissue 
and biospecimens stored by the NIH NeuroBioBank must continue 
completing the NIH NeuroBioBank Tissue Access Request Form. The primary 
use of the information collected by this instrument is to document, 
track, monitor, and evaluate the appropriate use of the NIH 
NeuroBioBank resources, as well as to notify interested recipients of 
updates, corrections or changes to the system.
    OMB approval is requested for 3 years. There are no costs to 
respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized 
burden hours are 175.
