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 
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

    Statements in Support of Application of Waiver of Inadmissibility 
(OMB Control No. 0920-0006; Expires 8/31/2017)--Extension--National 
Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases (NCEZID), Centers 
for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    Section 212(a)(1) of the Immigration and Nationality Act states 
that aliens with specific health related conditions are ineligible for 
admission into the United States. The Attorney General may waive 
application of this inadmissibility on health-related grounds if an 
application for waiver is filed and approved by the consular office 
considering the application for visa. CDC uses this application 
primarily to collect information to establish and maintain records of 
waiver applicants in order to notify the U.S. Citizenship and 
Immigration Services when terms, conditions and controls imposed by 
waiver are not met.
    CDC is requesting approval from OMB to collect this data for 
another three years. Based on a review of the number of waivers 
processed by CDC over the last three years, CDC does not request a 
change in the amount of burden.
    Respondents must mail these documents to CDC, and this entails an 
additional cost. CDC estimates that respondents will spend 
approximately $15 per year on postal fees, for a total of $3,000 
annually.
