Proposed Data Collection Submitted for Public Comment and Recommendations

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), as part of its continuing efforts to reduce public burden and maximize the utility of government information, invites the general public and other Federal agencies to take this opportunity to comment on proposed and/or continuing information collections, as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. This notice invites comment on ``Continuing and New International and U.S. Data Collections from the 2014 CDC Ebola Virus Disease Emergency Response''. Under the current 60-day Federal Register Notice, the CDC is announcing its intention to seek three-year OMB approval to continue several Ebola-related information collections beyond their current emergency expiration dates and to conduct newly proposed information collections within international borders of Ebola- affected West African countries and within the domestic borders of State, Territorial and Local (STL) public health authorities in the U.S. These existing ``source'' information collections and new information collection requests (ICRs) will be submitted under four ``destination'' ICRs for Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval.
