Proposed Project Harmful Algal Bloom Illness Surveillance System (HABISS)--NEW-- National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description The National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases (NCEZID) is requesting approval for surveillance activities through Harmful Algal Bloom-related Illness Surveillance System (HABISS). HABISS data surveillance was previously covered under OMB Control No. 0920-0004. Previous Harmful Algal Bloom (HAB) surveillance under HABISS ceased due to defunding. NCEZID is now managing the HAB surveillance module. Surveillance through HABISS is now a priority within NCEZID due to the Great Lakes Restorative Initiative. The goal of the Harmful Algal Bloom-related Illness Surveillance System (HABISS) is to receive data on harmful algal blooms (HABs) and human and animal illnesses related to HAB exposures. Data reported to HABISS will be accessible to state health departments, federal partners and other stakeholders to better characterize HABs and single human and animal illness related to HAB exposures and to inform future prevention efforts. Data will be collected electronically, with data elements collected via the National Outbreak Reporting System (NORS). Single human and animal illnesses related to HAB exposures, and environmental data about HABs will be voluntarily reported by state agencies. The data collected will be analyzed and presented through summaries and reports. The total burden is 57 hours.
