Personal Responsibility Education Program (PREP) Performance Measures

Key Information

Abstract

The consequences of adolescent sexual activity remain a critical social and economic issue in the United States, shaping the lives of thousands of teens and their families every year. Despite declining births to teen mothers over the past 25 years, the teen birthrate in the United States remains higher than that in other industrialized countries and varies widely across geographic regions and racial/ethnic groups (Martin et al. 2017). Further, adolescents and young adults accounted for almost half of all new sexually transmitted infection (STI) cases in 2023 (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 2023). Sexual activity in youth is also related to engaging in other risky behaviors such as alcohol and substance use. In March 2010, Congress authorized the Personal Responsibility Education Program (PREP) as part of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA). PREP provides grants to states, tribes and tribal communities, and community organizations to support evidence-based programs to reduce teen pregnancy and STIs. The programs are required to provide education on both abstinence and contraceptive use. The programs also offer information on adulthood preparation subjects such as healthy relationships, adolescent development, financial literacy, parent–child communication, education and employment skills, and healthy life skills. Grant recipients are encouraged to target their programming to high-risk populations—for example, youth in foster care, homeless youth, youth with HIV/AIDS, pregnant youth who are under age 21, mothers who are under age 21, and youth residing in geographic areas with high teen birth rates. The Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) Modernization Act of 2010 (Public Law 111-352) requires federal agencies to report annually on measures of program performance. It is essential that PREP grant recipients submit the performance data described in this information collection request (ICR) to enable the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) to carry out its reporting requirements to Congress and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). Further, collection of these data will allow grant recipients and ACF to continue reporting to others on PREP program design, implementation, and outcomes.

[NCIPC] DELTA Achieving Health Equity through Addressing Disparities (AHEAD) COOPERATIVE AGREEMENT EVALUATION

Key Information

Abstract

The purpose of this data collection is to collect monitoring data project performance and implementation of cooperative agreement for Domestic Violence Prevention Enhancement and Leadership Through Alliances (DELTA) Achieving Health Equity through Addressing Disparities (AHEAD). Information collected from recipients on state- and local-level will provide crucial data for performance monitoring of the cooperative agreement and will 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. Recipients will report progress and activity information to CDC on an annual schedule using a web-based Partners’ Portal and web-based survey tool. In this revision, substantial changes were made to this ICR revision to streamline the reporting process and update language in alignment with Executive Orders and CDC priorities. In addition, supplemental data collection instruments (4a, 4b, 5a, and 5b) were removed due to staffing constraints.

[NCEZID] Traveler-based Genomic Surveillance

Key Information

Abstract

The goal of [NCEZID] Traveler-based Genomic Surveillance is to monitor importation of SARS-CoV-2 variants among arriving international air travelers at select U.S. airports. Data will be used to inform early detection of imported SARS-COV-2 variants into the U.S. and for program management purposes. Data is collected from two lower nasal dry self-swabs from participants in airports that are pooled in batches of 5-10 samples. One sample will be pooled with samples from other travelers from the same flight origin country. Pooled samples undergo SARS-CoV-2 reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) testing and whole genome sequencing on positive samples to determine viral lineage. The second will be kept if there is a need to look more closely at a positive pool. Samples may be sent to CDC for further testing. Surveillance may be expanded to test for other pathogens such as influenza. Participants complete a questionnaire with their demographic, clinical, and travel history information and will be given a free antigen test kit for their time. This revision request is submitted to reduce the annual burden for accurate reporting.

Generic Clearance for Information Collection Using Voluntary Surveys for Studies Conducted by the Federal Trade Commission to Support the Missions to Protect Consumers and Competition

Key Information

Abstract

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC or Commission) is seeking approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for generic clearance for information collection under the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) to allow the FTC’s Bureau of Economics to conduct voluntary survey studies of consumer behavior as it relates to competition and consumer protection laws. This is a new collection. Understanding consumers’ perceptions and behaviors plays an important role in improving FTC law enforcement by better understanding potentially harmful and anticompetitive business practices and enabling efficient new methods to compute consumer injury. To help with determining the issues and mechanisms underlying consumer behavior in response to unfair or deceptive business practices and to inform the FTC about how best to protect consumers in light of these practices, the FTC is requesting approval of this generic information collection request.

Drive-Mode Design Best Practices

Key Information

Abstract

This information collection request (ICR) is to request approval to conduct three new voluntary information collections as part of a one-time research study to generate evidence-based best practices for the design of future drive mode applications and functionalities for mobile phones operating independently of in-vehicle systems. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) of the U.S. Department of Transportation is seeking to conduct the research study. The research team will contact up to an estimated 300 potential research participants who will complete the screening questionnaire, to identify up to 96 participants who will be eligible for participation and complete the remaining information collections. The estimate of 96 participants accounts for potential attrition and replacements to ensure that both experimental drive procedures include 36 participants with complete data. This ICR includes the following information collections: (1) screening questionnaire; (2) informed consent form; and (3) study drive. The selected participants will be trained on the study drive procedures, followed by the in-study drive on either Exponent’s test track (test track experimental drive) or handling pad (cones course experimental drive). The information collections noted above as well as the full study will only be completed once. During each study drive, participants will perform tasks on a mobile phone as instructed by the experimenter and the experimenter will record data on their performance experience. Participants’ driving data will be collected by the study-provided vehicle and using GoPro cameras. Participants’ eye movement data will be collected using the Ergoneers Dikablis Glasses X eye-tracking system, which will record insights into visual attention and scanning patterns during task performance. This project involves approval by an institutional review board (IRB), which the contractor has obtained. This collection will be used to examine how different drive mode implementations affect driver attention and performance compared to standard interfaces. The results from this collection will support NHTSA’s objective of developing evidence-based best practices for designing future drive mode features on mobile phones that operate independently of in-vehicle systems. NHTSA will use the information to produce a technical report that will provide summary figures, tables, and the results of data analysis of the information. No identifying information or individual responses will be reported. The technical report will be made available to the public through the NHTSA’s website and the National Transportation Library.

Highway Construction Training Program (HCTP)

Key Information

Abstract

This information collection request would require direct recipients and State DOTs to collect specific information as required in the NOFO. The purpose of the collection is to ensure that the funds awarded per the approved proposal detailing specific activities and budget constraints are used for the intended purpose of the HCTP grant. The HCTP grants will continue to build on the lessons learned through the Highway Construction Workforce Program (HCWP) and the Strategic Workforce Development (SWD) Initiative. This opportunity represented $4,226,871 in funding available to applicants at no more than $300,000 for each award. This collection request, included in the NOFO for the HCTP Grant requirements, provides a resource to track the progress of the awarded programs through the period of performance of up to two years. The following performance measures are quarterly and are as follows: the number of entrants, the number of completed programs, the number of job placements, the median wages at time of hire and their progression at 180 days into the job placement, the number of trainees retained, and, if an educational institution, the number of enrollees in a particular curriculum. There are two remaining performance measures to be submitted annually. They are both related to educational institutions and the number of credentials attained with the corresponding skill gains in post-secondary educational opportunities. This information collection request would require the awardees to maintain records as their activities progress through the period of performance and afterwards for up to three years after the closing out of the project funded with the HCTP Grant money. The reporting will be quarterly and annually, respectively.

FERC-725B, RD25-8 and Renewal, Mandatory Reliability Standards for Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP)

Key Information

Abstract

For RD25-8 updating CIP-002-8 and Renewal of the remaining: Reliability Standards CIP 003-10, CIP-004-8, CIP-005-8, CIP-006-7.1, CIP-007-7.1, CIP-008-7.1, CIP 009 7.1, CIP-010-5, CIP-011-4.1, CIP-013-3, CIP-14-3, and CIP-015-1. According to NERC, the Reliability Standards would allow responsible entities to fully implement virtualization and address risks associated with virtualized environments, such as “side channel” attacks where virtual systems executing on the same hardware could affect one another. NERC also states that the use of security objectives within the CIP Reliability Standards establishes a framework adaptable to newer technologies. NERC explains that its revisions would: (1) support different security models by adjusting language around perimeter-based models to accommodate other security models; (2) recognize “virtualization infrastructure and virtual machines through new and revised terms in the NERC Glossary;” (3) broaden “change management approaches beyond a baseline-only configuration to recognize the dynamic nature of virtualized technologies,” e.g., where such virtualized systems are no longer installed on specific servers; and (4) manage “accessibility and attack surfaces of a virtualized configuration.” In addition to the changes to facilitate virtualization, the proposed Reliability Standards incorporate clarifications found during the implementation of prior versions of the CIP Standards.

FERC-1005, Credit Related Information Sharing Between RTOs/ISOs

Key Information

Abstract

In 2023, FERC issued the Final Rule in Docket No. RM22-13-000 discussing the need for RTOs/ISOs to share credit related information with each other. The credit-related information sharing is intended to reduce the risk of liquidity failures amongst utilities. As described in the Final Rule, the Commission revised section 35.47 of Title 18 of the Code of Federal Regulations to permit credit-related information sharing between organized wholesale electric markets. The rule does not create an information collection that is submitted to FERC, rather it permits the ability to share information between RTOs/ISOs and directs RTOs/ISOs to update their tariff provisions to include processes and procedures to do so. At that time RTOs/ISOs were required to update their tariff provisions to enable credit-related information sharing. This process has been completed, which is why the Commission is removing the burden related to this action. The remaining burden is associated with facilitating the information sharing between entities in accordance with each RTO’s/ISO’s processes and procedures.
