The purpose of this Generic Data Collection is to: 1) help CDC programs and their recipients develop strong performance measurement systems and practices; 2) define and operationalize priority performance measures; and 3) establish common data collection and reporting expectations. Data will enable the accurate, reliable, uniform and timely submission of recipients' progress.
This Non-Substantive Change Request is submitted to update sex questions used in CDC-RFA-PS-24-0003 Support and Scale-Up of HIV Prevention Services in Sexual Health Clinics (or SHIPS) Performance Measures Project, Biannual Performance Measures Survey to be in accordance with EO 14168. There is no anticipated change to the approved burden.
CDC requests an increase in burden and responses to accommodate expanded eligibility criteria for participation in the PMP and anticipated increase in usage of this generic by CDC/ATSDR programs. In addition, many programs are funded for multiple years and will need to collect performance data for the entire period of performance.
Note that the change in the total cost burden appears to be very large. However, the change in total cost burden is associated with the change in accounting method. In the past, CDC reported the cost burden for each IC as the wage-equivalents that appear in Section 12.B of the supporting statement. Consistent with the rest of HHS, CDC is now reporting the total from Section 13 in the "burden cost" field for each IC. Section 13 covers nonwage costs (e.g., equipment). As such, costs associated with these ICs are now "zero."
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that the collection of information encompassed by this request complies with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR 1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding the proposed collection of information, that the certification covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
