Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork Reduction Act Review

    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has submitted 
the following information collection request to the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval in accordance with 
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. The notice for the proposed 
information collection is published to obtain comments from the public 
and affected agencies.
    Written comments and suggestions from the public and affected 
agencies concerning the proposed collection of information are 
encouraged. Your comments should address any of the following: (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]. Written comments and/or

Proposed Project

    Restrictions on Interstate Travel of Persons (42 CFR part 70) (OMB 
Control No. 0920-0488, expiration, 3/31/2016)-- Revision--Division of 
Global Migration and Quarantine, National Center for Emerging Zoonotic 
and Infectious Diseases, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 
(CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    This revision to an existing information collection request is 
intended to ensure that CDC can continue collect pertinent information 
related to communicable disease or deaths that occur aboard conveyances 
during interstate travel within the United States, as authorized under 
42 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) part 70. Additionally, CDC is 
requesting approval to use the Passenger Locator Form in the event that 
travelers on domestic flights within the United States need to be 
contacted for public health follow-up.
    The intended use of the information is to ensure that CDC can 
assess and respond to reports of communicable disease or death that 
occur on conveyances engaged in interstate travel, and assist state and 
local health authorities if an illness or death occurs that poses a 
risk to public health. Generally, the primary source of this 
information is aircraft and travelers moving within the United States.
    This revision makes several modification to this information 
collection. They are as follows: In current practice, CDC does not 
process applications for travel permits using the Restriction On Travel 
Of Persons Multipurpose Application Form Under the Provisions of 42 CFR 
part 70 (aka Ill Person Travel Permit); therefore the information 
collections under 42 CFR 70.3, Application to the State of destination 
for a permit, Copy of material submitted by applicant and permit issued 
by State health authority (Attending physician), and Copy of material 
submitted by applicant and permit issued by State health authority 
(State health authority) are being removed. Similarly, information 
collections under 42 CFR 70.5, Application for a permit to move from 
State to State while in the communicable period (Attending physician) 
and Application for a permit to move from State to State while in the 
communicable period (Traveler) are also being removed. The issuance of 
travel restrictions is a collaborative process between public health 
partners, e.g. state health departments, the Department of Homeland 
Security, and CDC. There is no standardized collection of information 
involved. This change results in the removal of the information 
collections under 42 CFR 70.3 and 70.5 from the list of information 
collections as well as the removal of the associated burden. Reports of 
communicable disease or death from domestic conveyances are almost 
always submitted electronically to meet requirements of 42 CFF 70.4, so 
the current hard copy Master of Vessel or Conveyance Illness Report, 
which was constructed to be used by masters of vessels to comply with 
42 CFR 70.4, has been rendered obsolete. In addition, CDC has issued 
guidance stating that reports to CDC, instead of local health 
authorities, regarding domestic reports of communicable disease or 
death on board conveyances meet the requirements of the regulation; 
therefore, information collections related to copies of the report sent 
by masters of vessels to state health departments are no longer 
necessary. The only remaining information collection under 42 CFR 70.4 
is Report by the master of a vessel or person in charge of conveyance 
of the incidence of a communicable disease occurring while in 
interstate travel.

[[Page 76693]]

    CDC is also requesting an adjustment to the burden associated with 
reports of communicable disease or death from domestic conveyances. CDC 
is reducing the burden from 15 minutes per report to 7 minutes. This is 
due to the facilitation of reporting using electronic means, i.e. Air 
Traffic Control and the Domestic Events Network for domestic flights, 
rather than the hard copy Master of Vessel or Conveyance Illness 
Report.
    Finally, CDC is requesting the addition of the Passenger Locator 
Form to this information collection. CDC currently has approval to 
collect the Passenger Locator Form from travelers aboard international 
flights under OMB Control Number 0920-0134. CDC is requesting approval 
to collect passenger contact and locating information for travelers 
aboard domestic flights within the United States.
    The resulting change in burden is a reduction of 3,611 hours.

Estimated Annualized Burden Hours

    CDC anticipates this information collection will result in 90 total 
burden hours from 1,000 respondents. There is no burden to respondents 
other than the time required to complete and send the requested 
information to CDC. The estimated annualized burden is 90 hours.
