 Department of Health and Human Services Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [30Day-21-20MT]
 In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has submitted the information collection request titled 
                    *The National Firefighter Registry*
                     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 April 27, 2020 to obtain comments from the public and affected agencies. CDC did not receive 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. Comments and recommendations for the proposed information collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of this notice to

Proposed Project National Firefighter Registry—New—National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description In order to accurately monitor trends in cancer incidence and evaluate control measures among the U.S. Fire Service, Congress passed the Firefighter Cancer Registry Act of 2018. This legislation directed CDC/NIOSH to create a registry of U.S. firefighters for the purpose of monitoring cancer incidence and risk factors among the current U.S. Fire service. The legislation authorized funding of the project for five years as of fiscal year 2019. The main goal of the National Firefighter Registry (NFR), according to the Firefighter Cancer Registry Act of 2018, is, “to develop and maintain a voluntary registry of firefighters to collect relevant health and occupational information of such firefighters for purposes of determining cancer incidence.” Results from the NFR will provide information for decision makers within the fire service and medical or public health community to devise and implement policies and procedures to lessen cancer risk and/or improve early detection of cancer among firefighters. The below table outlines the estimated time burden for participants enrolling in the NFR. There are three corresponding documents to be completed as part of the enrollment process; the Informed Consent, User Profile, and Enrollment Questionnaire. The estimated time burden for the Informed Consent and User Profile are five minutes each, and an estimated 30 minute burden for the enrollment questionnaire. Estimated Annualized Burden Hours
