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. 

Proposed Project 

Performance Monitoring of CDC’s 

Comprehensive Suicide Prevention 

Program—New—National Center for 

Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC), 

Centers for Disease Control and 

Prevention (CDC). 

Background and Brief Description 

The Centers for Disease Control and 

Prevention (CDC) seeks OMB approval 

to collect information from recipients 

funded under the Comprehensive 

Suicide Prevention Program cooperative 

agreement (CE20–2001), hereafter 

known as CSP. OMB approval is 

requested for three years of the five-year 

funding period. The electronic 

collection of information for program 

and performance monitoring aligns with 

three of CDC’s Data Modernization 

Initiative Key Objectives to: 

• Develop and implement cloudbased approaches for automating data 

collection and supporting multidirectional data flows among STLT 

partners and CDC. 

• Reduce burden for data providers 

and public health agencies. 

• Ensure systems and services are 

scalable, interoperable, and adaptable to 

meet evolving needs. 

Recipients will report progress and 

activity information to CDC on an 

annual schedule using a web-based 

Partners’ Portal. The Partners’ Portal 

allows recipients to fulfill their annual 

reporting obligations efficiently by

1The CDC Director renewed the Order until 

March 31, 2021. On March 28, 2021, the CDC 

Director modified and extended the Order until 

June 30, 2021. On June 24, 2021 the CDC Director 

extended the Order until July 31, 2021. 

2For purposes of this Order, ‘‘person’’ includes 

corporations, companies, associations, firms, 

partnerships, societies, and joint stock companies, 

as well as individuals. 

3To the extent any provision of this Order 

conflicts with prior Orders, this Order is 

controlling, as this is a new order. 

employing user-friendly, easily 

accessible web-based instruments to 

collect necessary information for both 

progress reports and continuation 

applications including work plans. This 

approach enables recipients to save 

pertinent information from one 

reporting period to the next and reduces 

the administrative burden on the annual 

continuation application and the 

performance monitoring process. 

Awardee program staff can review the 

completeness of data needed to generate 

required reports, enter basic summary 

data for reports annually, and finalize 

and save required reports for upload 

into other reporting systems as required. 

Information to be collected will 

provide crucial data for program 

performance monitoring and provide 

CDC with the capacity to respond in a 

timely manner to requests for 

information about the program from the 

Department of Health and Human 

Services (HHS), the White House, 

Congress, and other sources. 

Information to be collected will also 

strengthen CDC’s ability to monitor 

awardee progress, provide data-driven 

technical assistance, and disseminate 

the most current surveillance data on 

suicide and suicide attempts. CDC 

requests approval for an estimated 132 

annual burden hours. There is no cost 

to respondents other than their time to 

participate.

SUMMARY: The Centers for Disease 

Control and Prevention (CDC), located 

within the Department of Health and 

Human Services (HHS) announces a 

new Order under Section 361 of the 

Public Health Service Act to temporarily 

halt residential evictions in 

communities with substantial or high 

transmission of COVID–19 to prevent 

the further spread of COVID–19. 

DATES: This Order is effective August 3, 

2021 through October 3, 2021.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On September 4, 2020, the CDC 

Director issued an Order temporarily 

halting evictions in the United States for 

the reasons described therein. That 

Order was set to expire on December 31, 

2020, subject to further extension, 

modification, or rescission. Section 502 

of Title V, Division N of the 

Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 

extended the Order until January 31, 

2021, and approved the Order as an 

exercise of the CDC’s authority under 

Section 361 of the Public Health Service 

Act (42 U.S.C. 264). With the extension 

of the Order, Congress also provided 

$25 billion for emergency rental 

assistance for the payment of rent and 

rental arrears. Congress later provided 

an additional $21.55 billion in 

emergency rental assistance when it 

passed the American Rescue Plan. The 

Order was extended multiple times due 

to the changing public health landscape 

and expired on July 31, 2021 after what 

was intended to be the final extension.1

Absent an unexpected change in the 

trajectory of the pandemic, CDC did not 

plan to extend the Order further. 

Following the recent surge in cases 

brought forth by the highly 

transmissible Delta variant, the CDC 

Director now issues a new Order 

temporarily halting evictions for 

persons in counties or U.S. territories 

experiencing substantial or high rates of 

transmission, for the reasons described 

herein. It is more limited in scope than 

prior orders, intended to target specific 

areas of the country where cases are 

rapidly increasing, which likely would 

be exacerbated by mass evictions. 

Accordingly, subject to the limitations 

listed in the new Order, a landlord, 

owner of a residential property, or 2

person with a legal right to pursue 

eviction or possessory action, shall not 

evict any covered person from any 

residential property in any county or 

U.S. territory while the county or 

territory is experiencing substantial or 

high levels of community transmission 

levels of SARS–CoV–2. This Order will 

expire on October 3, 2021, but is subject 

to further extension, modification, or 

rescission based on public health 

circumstances.3

Declaration form can be found at
