longitudinal study of pregnant women
and their new baby for two years.
Throughout the study planning period,
CDC engaged with subject matter
experts from multiple Federal agencies
including the National Institutes of
Health (NIH), the U.S. Department of
Agriculture (USDA), and the Food and
Drug Administration (FDA) to ensure
that FMB&M–IFPS III applies lessons
learned from previous studies and
represents the priorities and needs of
numerous stakeholders. The new study
design is based on updated

its continuing effort to reduce public
burden and maximize the utility of
government information, invites the
general public and other Federal
agencies the opportunity to comment on
a continuing information collection, as
required by the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995. This notice invites
comment on a proposed information
collection project titled Aerosols from
Harmful Algal Blooms: Exposures and
Health Effects in Highly Exposed
Populations. The goal of this study is to
conduct exploratory analyses of the
relationships between HAB-related
biomonitoring data, environmental data,
and symptom reporting.
CDC must receive written
comments on or before December 15,
2023.

recalls. CDC estimates that 7,477
pregnant women, ages 18–49, must be
screened in order to obtain complete
data on 2,500 study participants. The
goal is to recruit equal proportions of
non-Hispanic white, non-Hispanic
black, and Hispanic participants. An
OMB Extension is requested for one
year. CDC requests OMB approval for an
estimated 5,051 annualized burden
hours. Participation is voluntary, and
there are no costs to respondents other
than their time.

methodology and questions, and
recruitment of a new cohort of study
participants.
CDC will collect information about
mother’s intentions, behaviors, feeding
decisions, and practices from pregnancy
through their child’s first two years of
life and how these change; child health
outcomes; and emerging issues related
to infant and toddler feeding practices.
Data will be collected using web-based
surveys at multiple time points. This
includes: (1) a prenatal survey; (2) 14
follow-up surveys after the baby is born;
and (3) 2–4 maternal dietary data

Telephone: 404–639–7570; Email: omb@

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;

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

reporting. CDC anticipates this research
to be hypothesis generating, and not
necessarily generalizable to participants
with similar exposures in the same
population or to the public more
generally.
HABs and associated environmental
impacts (e.g., geographic and temporal
extent, composition, toxin production)
are difficult, if not impossible to predict
and track. This project was developed in
response to community health concerns
reported during a severe cyanobacterial
bloom in 2018. Since then, there have
not been any significant blooms, and
CDC has been unable to implement the
study. As such, during the first three
years of approval for this data
collection, CDC was unable to align the
physical occurrence of a specific type of
HAB, a cyanobacterial bloom, of
significant magnitude with government
approvals and resource commitments.
The program requests an Extension of
OMB approval to allow us to implement
the study during the next substantial
HAB that occurs in Florida whether it
comprises cyanobacteria, marine
microalgae, or seaweed.
The total number of respondents is
486, which is unchanged from the
previously approved number of
respondents. The total estimated
annualized time burden is 1,273 hours.
Participation is voluntary and there are
no costs to respondents other than their
time.

3. Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected;
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; and
5. Assess information collection costs.

Background and Brief Description
Human exposures to HAB toxins
(harmful algal blooms, or HABS,
include marine microalgae; marine
macroalgae, such as seaweeds; and
cyanobacteria, also called blue-green
algae) have been reported to produce a
variety of health effects, including
respiratory irritation and liver and
kidney damage. The goal of this study
is to conduct exploratory analyses of the
relationships between biomonitoring
data, environmental data, and symptom
