Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork Reduction Act Review

    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) publishes a 
list of information collection requests under review by the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) in compliance with the Paperwork Reduction 
Act (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35). To request a copy of these requests, call 
the CDC Reports Clearance Office on [phone]. Send written 
comments to CDC, Desk Officer; Human Resources and Housing Branch, New 
Executive Office Building, Room 10235; Washington, DC 20503. Written 
comments should be received within 30 days of this notice.

Proposed Project

    1. Emergency Epidemic Investigations (0920-0008)--Reinstatement--
During most emergency situations, CDC specialists (epidemiologist, 
biostatisticians, laboratory specialists, etc.) work under the aegis of 
a State or local health department. Usually such investigations are 
completed by the State or local government, with technical assistance 
from CDC. Occasionally, an investigation must be continued or is 
multistate or global. In these cases, the CDC collects or sponsors the 
collection of information from the public.
    This request, therefore, is for the re-instatement of OMB approval 
to collect data in such emergency situations. The total burden hours 
are 3,000.
