Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork Reduction Act Review

    In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the Centers 
for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)

[[Page 3150]]

has submitted the information collection request titled NATIONAL YOUTH 
TOBACCO SURVEY 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 October 
13, 2017 to obtain comments from the public and affected agencies. CDC 
received nine 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 [email protected]. 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

    National Youth Tobacco Surveys (NYTS) 2018-2020 (OMB Control Number 
0920-0621, expires 01/31/2018)--Revision--National Center for Chronic 
Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease 
Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    Tobacco use is the leading cause of preventable disease and death 
in the United States, and nearly all tobacco use begins during youth 
and young adulthood. A limited number of health-risk behaviors, 
including tobacco use, account for the overwhelming majority of 
immediate and long-term sources of morbidity and mortality. Because 
many health-risk behaviors are established during adolescence, there is 
a critical need for public health programs directed towards youth, and 
for information to support these programs.
    Since 2004, the CDC has periodically collected information about 
tobacco use among adolescents (National Youth Tobacco Survey (NYTS) 
2004, 2006, 2009, 2011, 2012, 2013-2017, OMB Control Number 0920-0621). 
This surveillance activity builds on previous surveys funded by the 
American Legacy Foundation in 1999, 2000, and 2002.
    At present, the NYTS is the most comprehensive source of nationally 
representative tobacco data among students in grades 9-12, moreover, 
the NYTS is the only source of such data for students in grades 6-8. 
The NYTS has provided national estimates of tobacco use behaviors, 
information about exposure to pro- and anti-tobacco influences, and 
information about racial and ethnic disparities in tobacco-related 
topics. CDC uses the information collected through the NYTS to identify 
trends over time, to inform the development of tobacco cessation 
programs for youth, and to evaluate the effectiveness of existing 
interventions and programs.
    CDC plans to request OMB approval to conduct additional cycles of 
the NYTS in 2018, 2019, and 2020. CDC will conduct the survey among 
nationally representative samples of students attending public and 
private schools in grades 6-12, and administer to students either as an 
optically scannable booklet of multiple-choice questions or as a 
digitally-based survey.
    CDC will also collect information supporting the NYTS from state-, 
district-, and school-level administrators and teachers. During the 
2018-2020 timeframe, changes will be incorporated that reflect CDC's 
ongoing collaboration with FDA and the need to measure progress toward 
meeting strategic goals established by the Family Smoking Prevention 
and Tobacco Control Act.
    Information collection will occur annually and may include a number 
of new questions, as well as increased representation of minority 
youth.
    The survey will examine the following topics: Use of cigarettes, 
cigars, smokeless tobacco, electronic cigarettes, hookahs, pipes, 
bidis, snus, and dissolvable tobacco products; knowledge and attitudes; 
media and advertising; access to tobacco products and enforcement of 
restrictions on access; secondhand smoke including e-cigarette aerosol 
exposure; provision of school- and community-based interventions, and 
cessation.
    CDC will continue to use the results of the NYTS to inform and 
evaluate the National Comprehensive Tobacco Control Program; provide 
data to inform the Department of Health and Human Service's Tobacco 
Control Strategic Action Plan, and provide national benchmark data for 
state-level Youth Tobacco Surveys. CDC also expects the information 
collected through the NYTS to provide multiple measures and data for 
monitoring progress on six of the 20 tobacco-related objectives (TU-2, 
3, 7, 11, 18, and 19) for Healthy People 2020.
    CDC seeks a three-year OMB approval and estimates 18,537 burden 
hours for this project. There are no costs to respondents other than 
their time.
