practice providers, and 210 HCs, if 

funds allow. Lastly, if funds allow, in 

2024 we will sample up to 20,000 

physicians, 40,000 advanced practice 

providers, and 310 HCs. For 2022–2024, 

there will be an additional 3,000 

physicians sampled yearly for the 

Provider Electronic Component. 

Questions on the Health Center Facility 

Interview will be modified. After 2021, 

the Physician Induction Interview will 

shift to a redesigned Ambulatory Care 

Provider Interview. Visit data collection 

via abstraction will be placed on a hold 

and the reinterview study will be 

discontinued. The provider incentive 

experiment will also no longer be taking 

place, as we will begin to conduct other 

methodological work to improve upon 

the survey. 

CDC requests OMB approval for an 

estimated 32,302 annual burden hours. 

There are no costs 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 Barriers and 

Facilitators to Expanding the NHBS to 

Conduct HIV Behavioral Surveillance 

Among Transgender Women (NHBSTrans) 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 November 2, 2021 to obtain 

comments from the public and affected 

agencies. CDC received four 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 

Barriers and Facilitators to Expanding 

the NHBS to Conduct HIV Behavioral 

Surveillance Among Transgender 

Women (NHBS-Trans) (OMB Control 

No. 0920–1262, Exp. 4/30/2022)— 

Revision—National Center for HIV, 

Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention 

(NCHHSTP), Centers for Disease Control 

and Prevention (CDC). 

Background and Brief Description 

The purpose of this project is to 

demonstrate the feasibility of a national 

surveillance system to monitor 

behaviors of transgender women that are 

related to Human Immunodeficiency 

Virus (HIV) transmission and 

prevention in the United States. 

Findings of the NHBS-Trans project will 


jspears on DSK121TN23PROD with NOTICES1
Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 53 / Friday, March 18, 2022 / Notices 15431 

be used by CDC and local health 

department staff to assess changes made 

to the NHBS-Trans system to monitor 

the prevalence of HIV among 

transgender women of color and to 

strengthen understanding of the 

behavioral and environmental HIV risk 

factors that contribute to the 

disproportionately high prevalence of 

HIV within this population. Improved 

surveillance of transgender women is 

necessary to help CDC and health 

departments identify areas for 

community-level interventions, track 

the progress of communities in 

implementing change, and evaluate 

interventions that seek to reduce HIV 

risk factors and increase engagement in 

HIV prevention and care. 

CDC requests a three-year approval for 

a revised information collection. Based 

on completion of data collection in 

2019–2020 and evaluation of the 

previous efforts, project activities and 

methods have expanded to allow for 

remote variants of our in-person 

methods, such as interview by 

videoconference or phone. The number 

of Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs) 

participating in NHBS-Trans will 

increase (from nine to up to 14) and the 

number of respondents recruited per 

project area will increase from 200 to 

300 adult minority transgender women 

(4,200 interviews total). Selected 

content of the eligibility screener and 

behavioral assessment was revised. 

Data will be collected through 

anonymous, in-person interviews 

conducted with persons systematically 

selected from up to 14 MSAs throughout 

the United States. A brief screening 

interview will be used to determine 

eligibility for participation in the 

behavioral assessment. All participants 

will be provided HIV testing and referral 

to services (as needed) following CDC 

protocol. Each participant will respond 

one time over the course of the threeyear project. Participants will be 

recruited through respondent-driven 

sampling (RDS), a scientifically proven 

recruitment strategy for reaching 

hidden, hard-to-reach, or stigmatized 

populations. To assess non-response 

bias from RDS, peer recruiters will be 

debriefed about their recruitment efforts 

when they return to the field site. This 

information will be used to understand 

if certain racial (or ethnic) groups are 

not responding or if persons are not 

responding for a particular reason. 

Interview data will be recorded on 

secure portable computers, without 

internet connections. Data will be 

transferred to secure, encrypted data 

servers. Data will be stored at CDC and 

shared with local health departments in 

accordance with existing data use 

agreements and the Assurance of 

Confidentiality for HIV/AIDS 

Surveillance Data. Data will be 

disseminated in aggregate through 

academic and agency publications, 

presentations, and reports. The 

information will be collected over a 

three-year period beginning no later 

than two months after OMB approval. 

The NHBS-Trans behavioral 

assessment and optional HIV testing are 

anonymous (neither names nor Social 

Security numbers are collected). Data 

that will be collected through NHBSTrans, while sensitive, are not 

personally identifying. These data will 

provide estimates of (1) behavior related 

to the risk of HIV and other sexually 

transmitted diseases, (2) prior testing for 

HIV, and (3) use of HIV prevention 

services. No other federal agency 

systematically collects this type of 

information from persons at risk for HIV 

infection. These data have substantial 

impact on prevention program 

development and monitoring at the 

local, state, and national levels. 

The burden table below shows the 

estimated annualized burden hours for 

the participants’ time. Annually, 1,540 

participants will complete an eligibility 

screener (an average of five minutes to 

complete), 1,400 participants will 

complete the Behavioral Assessment (an 

average of 40 minutes to complete), and 

1,400 will complete the Recruiter 

Debriefing Form (an average of two 

minutes to complete). The estimated 

total annualized burden is 1,108 hours. 

Participation of respondents is 

voluntary, and there are no costs to 

respondents other than their time.
