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 ``Sealant Efficiency Assessment for Locals 
and States (SEALS)'' 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 
June 5, 2023 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 www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain. Find this particular 
information collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day Review--
Open for Public Comments'' or by using the search function. 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

    Sealant Efficiency Assessment for Locals and States (SEALS) (OMB 
Control No. 0920-1289)--Reinstatement--National Center for Chronic 
Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease 
Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    By age 19, 67% of U.S. adolescents living in poverty have 
experienced tooth decay and 27% have at least one decayed tooth needing 
treatment. School sealant programs provide dental sealants, which 
protect against 80% of cavities for two years, and continue to protect 
against 50% of cavities for up to

[[Page 72763]]

four years. CDC requests information from states regarding children's 
cavity risk, one-year sealant retention rate, sealant program services 
delivered, and school sealant program cost and quantity of resources 
used at each school event. This data will allow CDC and states to 
monitor the performance and efficiency of their school sealant 
programs, which will improve and extend program delivery to more 
children.
    CDC requests OMB approval for a Reinstatement of a previously 
approved data collection. The total estimated annualized burden hours 
requested are 1,388. There are no costs to respondents other than their 
time.
