People has set and monitored national 

health objectives to meet a broad range 

of health needs, encourage 

collaborations across sectors, guide 

individuals toward making informed 

health decisions, and measure the 

impact of our prevention and health 

promotion activities. Healthy People 

2020 will reflect assessments of major 

risks to health and wellness, changing 

public health priorities, and emerging 

technologies related to our nation’s 

health preparedness and prevention.

Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork 

Reduction Act Review 

The Centers for Disease Control and

information collection requests under 

review by the Office of Management and 

Budget (OMB) in compliance with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 

Chapter 35). To request a copy of these 

requests, call the CDC Reports Clearance 

Officer at (404) 639–5960 or send an 

e-mail to omb@cdc.gov. Send written 

comments to CDC Desk Officer, Office of

Proposed Project: 

The National Survey of Family 

Growth (NSFG), (0920–0314)— 

Revision—National Center for Health 

Statistics (NCHS), Centers for Disease 

Control and Prevention (CDC). 

Background and Brief Description 

Section 306 of the Public Health 

Service (PHS) Act (42 U.S.C. 242k), as 

amended, authorizes that the Secretary 

of Health and Human Services (DHHS), 

acting through NCHS, shall collect 

statistics on ‘‘family formation, growth, 

and dissolution,’’ as well as 

‘‘determinants of health’’ and 

‘‘utilization of health care’’ in the 

United States. This three-year clearance 

request includes the data collection in 

2009–2012 for the continuous NSFG. 

The major change in this revision is an 

increase in the burden hours. This is 

due to the fact that the 2006 clearance 

contained a small pretest and two years 

of the full survey. This submission 

contains three years of the full survey 

which causes an increase in burden. No 

questionnaire changes are requested 

through 2010; some limited changes 

may be requested after that, to be 

responsive to emerging public policy 

issues. 

The National Survey of Family 

Growth (NSFG) was conducted 

periodically between 1973 and 2002, 

and continuously since 2006, by the 

National Center for Health Statistics, 

CDC. Each year, about 14,000 

households are screened, with about 

5,000 participants interviewed annually. 

Participation in the NSFG is completely 

voluntary and confidential. Interviews 

average 60 minutes for males and 80 

minutes for females. The response rate 

since 2006 is about 75 percent for both 

males and females. 

The NSFG program produces 

descriptive statistics which measure 

factors associated with birth and 

pregnancy rates, including 

contraception, infertility, marriage, 

divorce, and sexual activity, in the U.S. 

population 15–44; and behaviors that 

affect the risk of sexually transmitted 

diseases (STD), including HIV, and the 

medical care associated with 

contraception, infertility, and pregnancy 

and childbirth. 

NSFG data users include the DHHS 

programs that fund it, including CDC/ 

NCHS and seven others (The Eunice 

Kennedy Shriver National Institute for 

Child Health and Human Development 

(NIH/NICHD); the Office of Population 

Affairs (DHHS/OPA); the Office of the 

Assistant Secretary for Planning and 

Evaluation (DHHS/OASPE); the 

Administrations for Children and 

Families; the Children’s Bureau (DHHS/ 

ACF/CB); the CDC’s Division of HIV/ 

AIDS Prevention (CDC/DHAP); the 

CDC’s Division of STD Prevention 

(CDC/DSTD); and the CDC’s Division of 

10252 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 45 / Tuesday, March 10, 2009 / Notices 

Reproductive Health (CDC/DRH)). The 

NSFG is also used by state and local 

governments; private research and 

action organizations focused on men’s 

and women’s health, child well-being, 

and marriage and the family; academic 

researchers in the social and public 

health sciences; journalists, and many 

others. 

There is no cost to respondents other 

than their time. The total estimated 

annualized burden hours are 7,442.

Submission for OMB Review; 

Comment Request 

Proposed Project 

Title: Head Start Family and Child 

Experiences Survey (FACES 2009). 

OMB No.: 0970–0151. 

Description: The Administration for 

Children and Families (ACF), U.S. 

Department of Health and Human 

Services, is planning to collect data on 

a new cohort for the Head Start Family 

and Child Experiences Survey (FACES). 

FACES is a longitudinal study of a 

nationally representative sample of 

Head Start programs and children that 

will collect information for Head Start 

performance measures. Data for FACES 

will be collected annually through 

interviews with Head Start parents, 

teachers, program directors and other 

Head Start staff, as well as direct child 

assessments and observations of Head 

Start classrooms. 

Data will be collected on a sample of 

approximately 3,400 children and 

families from 60 Head Start programs. 

Data collection will include assessments 

of Head Start children, interviews with 

their parents, and ratings by their Head 

Start teachers. Site visitors will 

interview Head Start teachers in 

approximately 405 classrooms and make 

observations of the types and quality of 

classroom activities. Interviews will also 

be conducted with Head Start program 

directors and other staff. A follow-up for 

children in Kindergarten will include 

child assessments, parent interviews, 

and teacher questionnaires and child 

ratings. 

The purpose of this data collection is 

to fulfill the requirements of the 

Government Performance and Results 

Act (GPRA) of 1993 (Pub. L. 103–62), 

and by the 1994 reauthorization of the 

Head Start program (Head Start Act, as 

amended, May 18, 1994, Section 649 

(d)), which call for periodic assessments 

of Head Start’s quality and effectiveness. 

Respondents: Parents of Head Start 

Children, Head Start Children, Head 

Start Teachers, Head Start Program 

Directors and Staff, and Kindergarten 

Teachers of former Head Start enrollees.
