DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND

National Institutes of Health 

Submission for OMB Review; 

Emergency Clearance Request Human 

Influenza Surveillance of Health Care 

Centers in the United States and 

Taiwan 

SUMMARY: In accordance with Section 

3507(j) of the Paperwork Reduction Act 

of 1995, the National Institute of Allergy 

and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), the 

National Institutes of Health (NIH), has 

submitted to the Office of Management 

and Budget (OMB) a request for 

emergency review and processing of this 

information collection by March 7, 

2015. NIAID is requesting emergency 

processing of this information 

collection, pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.13, 

because NIAID cannot reasonably 

comply with the normal clearance 

procedures which would cause a delay 

and likely prevent or substantially 

disrupt the collection of information. A 

delay in starting the information 

collection would hinder the agency in 

accomplishing its mission to the 

detriment of the public good. Public 

harm could result through the loss of 

critically needed information to 

understand the causes of severity of 

influenza and associated morbidity and 

mortality during the Northern 

hemisphere 2014–15 influenza season. 

The National Institutes of Health may 

not conduct or sponsor, and the 

respondent is not required to respond 

to, an information collection that has 

been extended, revised, or implemented 

on or after October 1, 1995, unless it 

displays a currently valid OMB control 

number. Written comments and/or 

suggestions from the public and affected 

agencies are invited on one or more of 

the following points: (1) Whether the 

proposed collection of information is 

necessary for the proper performance of 

the function of the agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; (2) 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) 

Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (4) Ways to minimize the
