Proposed Project 

Message Testing for Tobacco 

Communication Activities (OMB No. 

0920–0910, exp. 1/31/2015)— 

Revision—National Center for Chronic 

Disease Prevention and Health 

Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for 

Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). 

Background and Brief Description 

In 2012, CDC’s Office on Smoking and 

Health obtained OMB approval of a 

generic clearance to support the 

development and testing of tobaccorelated health messages, including 

messages disseminated through 

multiple phases of an ACA-funded 

media campaign (Message Testing for 

Tobacco Communication Activities 

(MTTCA), OMB No. 0920–0910, exp. 1/ 

31/2015). CDC has employed the 

MTTCA clearance to collect information 

about adult smokers’ and nonsmokers’ 

attitudes and perceptions, and to pretest draft messages and materials for 

clarity, salience, appeal, and 

persuasiveness. Information collection 

modes that are supported include indepth interviews, in-person focus 

groups, online focus groups, computerassisted, in-person, or telephone 

interviews, and online surveys. 

Messages have been developed for 

multiple media channels including 

television, radio, print, and digital 

formats. 

CDC requests OMB approval to extend 

the MTTCA clearance, with changes, for 

three years. The Revision information 

collection request will propose a 20% 

increase in the annualized estimated 

number of respondents (from 36,847 to 

44,216) and a 52% increase in the 

annualized estimated burden hours 

(from 7,219 to 10,998). The increases 

will be used for short, medium and indepth surveys which are in line with 

activities proposed in the initial generic 

clearance. These increases are needed to 

support CDC’s planned information 

collections and to accommodate 

additional needs that CDC may identify 

during the next three years. For 

example, the MTTCA generic clearance 

may be used to facilitate the 

development of tobacco-related health 

communications of interest for CDC’s 

collaborative efforts with other federal 

partners including, but not limited to, 

the Food and Drug Administration 

(FDA), the Substance Abuse and Mental 

Health Services Administration 

(SAMHSA), the National Institutes of 

Health (NIH), and the National Cancer 

Institute (NCI). At this time the revised 

MTTCA clearance is expected to be 

sufficient to test tobacco related 

messages developed by CDC for the 

mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES

Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 241 / Tuesday, December 16, 2014 / Notices 74725 

general US population and 

subpopulations of interest. The MTTCA 

clearance should not replace the need 

for additional generic clearance 

mechanisms of HHS and other federal 

partners that may need to test tobacco 

messages related to their campaigns and 

initiatives. 

CDC’s revised MTTCA clearance also 

describes expansion of the target 

audience(s) that may be involved in 

message testing, such as youth ages 13– 

17 years. Media campaigns have been 

shown to be effective as part of a 

comprehensive tobacco control program 

to decrease the initiation of tobacco use 

among youths and young adults. 

Finally, there may be a need to test 

prevention and cessation messages 

related to products that are not currently 

regulated, including non-combustible 

tobacco products (electronic nicotine 

delivery systems such as electronic 

cigarettes or e-cigarettes) and some 

combustible products (such as cigars/

little cigars and cigarillos). In the event 

that the FDA receives authority to 

regulate these products and decides to 

do a campaign about them, CDC will 

continue to work closely with FDA to 

avoid duplication. Additionally, CDC 

will share with FDA the findings from 

any formative work related to the youth 

audience. 

CDC will continue to use the MTTCA 

clearance to develop and test messages 

and materials. Participation is voluntary 

and there are no costs to respondents 

other than their time. The total 

estimated annualized burden hours are 

10,998.

Administration for Children and

Submission for OMB Review; 

Comment Request 

Title: Annual Report/ACF 204 (State 

MOE)—1 collection. 

OMB No.: 0970–0248. 

Description: The Administration for 

Children and Families (ACF) is 

requesting a three-year extension of the 

ACF–204 (Annual MOE Report). The 

report is used to collect descriptive 

program characteristics information on 

the programs operated by States and 

Territories in association with their 

Temporary Assistance for Needy 

Families (TANF) programs. All State 

and Territory expenditures claimed 

toward States and Territories MOE 

requirements must be appropriate, i.e., 

meet all applicable MOE requirements. 

The Annual MOE Report provides the 

ability to learn about and to monitor the 

nature of State and Territory 

expenditures used to meet States and 

Territories MOE requirements, and it is 

an important source of information 

about the different ways that States and 

Territories are using their resources to 

help families attain and maintain selfsufficiency. In addition, the report is 

used to obtain State and Territory 

program characteristics for ACFs annual 

report to Congress, and the report serves 

as a useful resource to use in 

Congressional hearings about how 

TANF programs are evolving, in 

assessing State the Territory MOE 

expenditures, and in assessing the need 

for legislative changes. 

Respondents: The 50 States of the 

United States, the District of Columbia, 

Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin 

Islands.
