                     The Office of Population Affairs (OPA), Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health, requests a reinstatement without change of a currently approved collection for the disclosure and recordkeeping requirements codified at 42 CFR part 50, subpart B (“Sterilization of Persons in Federally Assisted Family Planning Projects”). The consent form solicits information to assure voluntary and informed consent to persons undergoing sterilization in programs of health services which are supported by federal financial assistance administered by the PHS. It provides additional procedural protection to the individual and the regulation requires that the consent form be a copy of the form that is appended to the PHS regulation. In 2003, the PHS sterilization consent form was revised to conform to OMB government-wide standards for the 
                    ( print page 27652)
                    collection of race/ethnicity data and to incorporate the PRA burden statement as part of the consent form. OPA is requesting a three-year clearance. *Estimated Annualized Burden Table:* Annualized Burden Hour Table
