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 OMB for approval. To 
comply with this requirement, we are publishing this notice of a 
proposed data collection as described below.
    Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the proposed collection of 
information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of 
the agency, including whether the information shall have practical 
utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the 
proposed collection of information; (c) ways to enhance the quality, 
utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; (d) ways to 
minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents, 
including through the use of automated collection techniques or other 
forms of information technology; and (e) estimates of capital or start-
up costs and costs of operation, maintenance, and purchase of services 
to provide information. Burden means the total time, effort, or 
financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, 
disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This 
includes the time needed to review instructions; to develop, acquire, 
install and utilize technology and systems for the purpose of 
collecting, validating and verifying information, processing and

[[Page 74109]]

maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; to 
train personnel and to be able to respond to a collection of 
information, to search data sources, to complete and review the 
collection of information; and to transmit or otherwise disclose the 
information.

Proposed Project

    Monitoring and Reporting System for Rape Prevention and Education 
(RPE) Awardees--New--National Center for Injury Prevention and Control 
(NCIPC), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    According to CDC's National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence 
Survey (NISVS), in the United States, nearly 1 in 5 women and 1 in 71 
men have been raped in their lifetime, while 1 in 2 women and 1 in 5 
men have experienced severe sexual violence victimization other than 
rape at some point in their lives. Sexual violence is a major public 
health problem, but it is preventable. The majority of victimization 
starts early in life with approximately 80% of female victims 
experiencing their first rape before the age of 25 and almost half 
experiencing their first rape before age 18. CDC's Rape Prevention and 
Education Initiative is a national program which funds, through a 
cooperative agreement, all 50 state health departments, the District of 
Columbia, Puerto Rico, and territories (e.g., Guam, U.S. Virgin 
Islands, and the Commonwealth of Northern Mariana Islands) to conduct 
state- and territorial-wide sexual violence prevention activities.
    The current Rape Prevention and Education (RPE) Cooperative 
Agreement builds on a decade long (2002-2012) investment in the 
infrastructure and capacity for sexual violence prevention within state 
health departments, state sexual assault coalitions, rape crisis 
centers and other community based organizations. Support and guidance 
for these programs have been provided through cooperative agreement 
funding and technical assistance administered by CDC's National Center 
for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC).
    The goal of this information collection is to receive the needed 
data to monitor cooperative agreement programs funded under the Rape 
Prevention Education program (CDC-RFA-CE14-1401), for program 
monitoring and improvement among funded state health departments.
    Data to be collected will provide crucial information for program 
performance monitoring and budget tracking, and provide CDC with the 
capacity to respond in a timely manner to requests for information 
about the program from the Department of Health and Human Services 
(HHS), the White House, Congress, and other sources. Awardees will 
report progress and activity information to CDC on an annual schedule 
using an Excel-based fillable electronic templates, pre-populated to 
the extent possible by CDC staff, to be submitted via Grant Solutions. 
Each awardee will submit an Annual reporting Progress Report Tool and 
an Annual reporting Evaluation Plan Tool. In Year 1, each awardee will 
have additional burden related to initial collection of the reporting 
tools. Initial population of the tools is a one-time activity, after 
completing the initial population of the tools, pertinent information 
only needs to be updated for each annual report. The same instruments 
will be used for all information collection and reporting.
    CDC will use the information to monitor each awardee's progress and 
to identify facilitators and challenges to program implementation and 
achievement of outcomes. Monitoring allows CDC to determine whether an 
awardee is meeting performance and budget goals and to make adjustments 
in the type and level of technical assistance provided to them, as 
needed, to support attainment of their performance measures.
    OMB approval is requested for three years. Participation in the 
information collection is required as a condition of funding. There are 
no costs to respondents other than their time.
