States. 

This revision seeks approval to 

conduct changes to all three 

components of NAMCS. CDC plans to 

adjust the HC Component and Provider 

Survey Component sample sizes. In 

2025 the goal is to sample 10,000 

advanced practice providers and up to 

151 HCs. In 2026 we plan to sample up 

to 10,000 physicians and up to 171 HCs 

if funds allow. If funds allow, in 2027 

we will sample up to 10,000 advanced 

practice providers and up to 191 HCs. 

For 2025–2027, there will be an 

additional 3,000 providers sampled 

yearly for the Provider Electronic 

Component. Questions on the Provider 

Facility Interview, Health Center 

Facility Interview, and the Ambulatory 

Care Provider Interview will also be 

modified. 

CDC requests OMB approval for an 

estimated 22,107 annual burden hours. 

There is no cost to respondents other 

than their time to participate.

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 ‘‘Institutional 

Review Board Authorization Agreement 

for Human Research’’ 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 

30, 2023, to obtain comments from the 

public and affected agencies. CDC 

received one comment 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

Proposed Project 

Institutional Review Board 

Authorization Agreement for Human 

Research—New—Office of Science (OS), 

Centers for Disease Control and 

Prevention (CDC). 

Background and Brief Description 

The CDC Human Research Protection 

Office (HRPO) often receives requests 

from outside institutions seeking to rely 

on the CDC Institutional Review Board 

(IRB) for review of a research study. 

This arrangement also allows multiple 

institutions to use, or rely on, the CDC 

IRB for centralized review and approval 

of research studies instead of review by 

the site-specific IRBs, which helps 

reduce duplication of effort, delays, and 

expenses. To meet regulatory 

requirements, institutions that elect to 

rely on the CDC IRB are required to 

complete a CDC IRB Authorization 

Agreement for Human Research and a 

Local Context Survey. The goal is to use 

the agreement and survey to provide 

regulatory oversight for human subjects 

research, to maintain records, and to 

track those institutions that have elected 

to rely on the CDC IRB for review. 

CDC requests OMB approval for an 

estimated 450 annual burden hours. 

There is no cost to respondents other 

than their time to participate.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) 

(44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), federal agencies 

must obtain approval from the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) for each 

collection of information they conduct 

or sponsor. In addition, the PRA also 

requires federal agencies to provide a 

60-day notice in the Federal Register 

concerning each proposed collection of 

information, including each new 

proposed collection, each proposed 

extension of existing collection of 

information, and each reinstatement of 

previously approved information 

collection before submitting the 

collection to the OMB for approval. To 

comply with this requirement, we are 

publishing this notice of a proposed 

data collection as described below. 

The OMB is particularly interested in 

comments that will help: 

1. 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; 

2. Evaluate the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; 

3. Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; 

4. 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 submissions 

of responses; and 

5. Assess information collection costs.
