proposed project or to obtain a copy of

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; and
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.
5. Assess information collection costs.

Background and Brief Description
Cancer is the second leading cause of
death in the United States, and health
care costs for cancer care are expected
to rise to $158 billion by 2020.
Addressing this public health problem
requires primary prevention, early
detection and treatment, support for
cancer survivors, and a reduction in
health disparities. Providing support to
state, tribal, territorial and local
organizations to implement evidencebased strategies has the potential to
impact population-level cancer
outcomes and reduce the burden of
cancer.
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention’s (CDC) National
Comprehensive Cancer Control Program
(NCCCP) has been a primary funder for
state and community-based cancer
control interventions since its inception
in the late 1990s. The program supports
states and communities in developing a
comprehensive approach to cancer
prevention and control that includes
supporting an infrastructure for state,
local, and population-based
interventions and multi-sectoral
partnerships and coalitions. Currently,
NCCCP supports 66 cancer control
program grantees including programs in
all 50 states, the District of Columbia,
and in a number of tribes, tribal
organizations, and U.S. Associated
Pacific Islands/territories. In addition,
CDC’s Office on Smoking and Health
(OSH) also has worked to build state
health department infrastructure and
capacity to conduct coordinated
comprehensive tobacco prevention and
control activities which contribute to
cancer health outcomes.
In striving to build capacity and
maximize the impact of CDC’s funded
programs, CDC has focused on
developing and implementing
innovative programs to enhance TTA
delivered to NCCCP awardees. CDC
funds two awardees under a cooperative
agreement—Provision of Technical
Assistance and Training to Assure
Comprehensive Cancer Control
Outcomes (DP18–1805). DP18–1805
awardees are charged with developing
and delivering high-quality TTA for
NCCCP funded programs, coalition
members, and partners focused on
improving implementation of evidencebased strategies for cancer prevention
and control. The TTA activities DP18–
1805 awardees implement include; (1)
conducting needs assessments, (2)

developing framework for building CCC
capacity, (3) coordinating and
collaborating with existing partners, (4)
developing a TTA plan, (5)
implementing a TTA plan and
conducting performance monitoring and
continuous quality improvement; and 6)
conducting a comprehensive evaluation
of TTA.
CDC proposes to conduct an
assessment DP18–1805 to: (1) Document
the nature of the TTA provided by
DP18–1805 awardees and the extent to
which the cooperative agreement was
able to achieve planned short-term
outcomes, and (2) identify the extent to
which DP18–1805 TTA efforts
contributed to NCCCP funded programs’
achievement in program outcomes.
There are no other data collection efforts
currently underway to assess

implementation or perceived
effectiveness of TTA administered
under DP18–1805.
This information collection request
will involve two complementary data
collection efforts: (1) Case studies of
DP18–1805 awardees (consisting of
interviews with DP18–1805 program
managers/directors, evaluators, and
partners) and (2) a cross-sectional webbased survey administered to NCCCP
program directors, coalition members,
and partners. The case studies will be
used to explore how DP18–1805
awardees are implementing their
respective cooperative agreements and
administering TTA to NCCCP awardees;
the factors that affect the
implementation of specific TTA
components; and the extent to which
they were able to achieve planned short-

term outcomes. The web-based survey
will inform CDC’s understanding of the
reach of DP18–1805 TTA efforts; elicit
information from NCCCP programs and
coalitions about the TTA received,
including type, dosage, frequency and
format; and assess the perceptions of the
effectiveness of the TTA. CDC will use
findings from the assessment to inform
development of future TTA efforts to
more effectively and efficiently support
NCCCP’s partner organizations.
OMB approval is requested for three
years. Participation is voluntary and
respondents will not receive incentives
for participation. There are no costs to
respondents other than their time. CDC
requests approval for an estimated 152
annual burden hours associated with
this activity.
