Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork Reduction Act Review

    In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the Centers 
for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has submitted the information 
collection request titled National Survey of Family Growth (NSFG) to 
the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval. CDC 
previously published a ``Proposed Data Collection Submitted for Public 
Comment and Recommendations'' notice on December 26, 2017 to obtain 
comments from the public and affected agencies. CDC received four 
comments related to the previous notice. This notice serves to allow an 
additional 30 days for public and affected agency comments.
    CDC will accept all comments for this proposed information 
collection project. The Office of Management and Budget is particularly 
interested in comments that:
    (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 omb@cdc.gov. Direct written comments 
and/or suggestions regarding the items contained in this notice to the 
Attention: CDC Desk Officer, Office of Management and Budget, 725 17th 
Street NW, Washington, DC 20503 or by fax to (202) 395-5806. Provide 
written comments within 30 days of notice publication.

Proposed Project

    The National Survey of Family Growth (NSFG)(OMB Control Number 
0920-0314, Expiration Date 05/31/2018)--Revision--National Center for 
Health Statistics (NCHS), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 
(CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    Section 306 of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act (42 U.S.C. 
242k), as amended, authorizes that the Secretary of Health and Human 
Services (DHHS), acting through NCHS, shall collect statistics on 
``family formation, growth, and dissolution,'' as well as 
``determinants of health'' and ``utilization of health care'' in the 
United States. This clearance request includes the data collection in 
2018 forward for the continuous NSFG.
    The National Survey of Family Growth (NSFG) was conducted 
periodically between 1973 and 2002, continuously in 2006-2010, and 
continuously starting in September 2011, by the National Center for 
Health Statistics, CDC. Each year, about 15,000 households are 
screened, with about 5,000 participants interviewed annually. 
Participation in the NSFG is completely voluntary and confidential. 
Interviews average 60 minutes for males and 80 minutes for females. The 
response rate since 2011 has ranged from 69 percent to 77 percent, and 
the cumulative response rate for the entire fieldwork period so far 
(September 2011 through the most current quarter which ended in May 
2017) is 69 percent.
    The NSFG program produces descriptive statistics which document 
factors associated with birth and pregnancy rates, including 
contraception, infertility, marriage, divorce, and sexual activity, in 
the US household population 15-49 years (15-44 years in survey periods 
before 2015); and behaviors that affect the risk of sexually 
transmitted diseases (STD), including HIV, and the medical care 
associated with contraception, infertility, and pregnancy and 
childbirth.
    NSFG data users include the DHHS programs that fund it, including 
CDC/NCHS and eleven others (The Eunice Kennedy Shriver National 
Institute for Child Health and Human Development (NIH/NICHD); the 
Office of Population Affairs (DHHS/OPA); the Children's Bureau (DHHS/
ACF/CB); the ACF's Office of Planning, Research, and Evaluation; the 
CDC's Division of HIV/AIDS Prevention (CDC/DHAP); the CDC's Division of 
STD Prevention (CDC/DSTD); the CDC's Division of Adolescent and School 
Health (CDC/DASH); the CDC's Division of Reproductive Health (CDC/DRH); 
the CDC's Division of Cancer Prevention and Control (CDC/DCPC); the 
CDC's Division of Nutrition, Physical Activity, and Obesity (CDC/
DNPAO); and the CDC's Division of Birth Defects and Developmental 
Disabilities (CDC/DBDDD)). The NSFG is also used by state and local 
governments (primarily for benchmarking to national data); private 
research and action organizations focused on men's and women's health, 
child well-being, and marriage and the family; academic researchers in 
the social and public health sciences; journalists, and many others.
    This submission requests approval to continue NSFG fieldwork for 
three years. While no questionnaire revisions are requested, two 
methodological studies are proposed. The total estimated annualized 
time burden to respondents is 6,759 hours. There is no cost to 
respondents other than their time.
