SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
The notice
of intent is as follows:
Notice of Intent To Prepare an
Environmental Impact Statement for the
Proposed Master Plan for the Redevelopment
of the St. Elizabeths West Campus in
Southeast Washington, DC
The General Services Administration
intends to prepare an Environmental
Impact Statement (EIS) to analyze the
potential impacts resulting from
adoption and implementation of a
Master Plan to redevelop the St.
Elizabeths (St. Es) West Campus in
Southeast Washington, DC. GSA’s
primary purpose for this proposed
action is to develop secure office space
in the District of Columbia to
accommodate substantial Federal
operations.
Background
The St. Es West Campus, formerly a
mental health facility, consists of 176
acres and 61 buildings constructed
between the 1850s and the 1960s. The
buildings contain approximately 1.1
million gross square feet of space. The
entire site, including the brick wall
running along Martin Luther King Jr.
Avenue, is a National Historic
Landmark. The St. Es West Campus also
contains a Civil War cemetery. From
1953 to December 2004, St. Es West
Campus was controlled by the U.S.
Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS).
GSA has identified a need to
redevelop the West Campus because (i)
there is an immediate need for secure
Federal office space in the National
Capital Region; (ii) the site is within the
District of Columbia boundary and
proximate to the Central Employment
Area (CEA); and (iii) the existing site is
currently underutilized.
To implement this redevelopment,
GSA is preparing a Master Plan that will
guide the long-term use and
redevelopment of the St. Es West
Campus.

Alternatives Under Consideration
GSA will analyze a range of Master
Plan alternatives for the St. Es West
Campus. In addition, as required by
NEPA, GSA will study the no action
alternative under which a Master Plan
will not be adopted and the site will
remain in its current state. As part of the
EIS, GSA will study the impacts of each
alternative on the human environment.
Scoping Process
In accordance with NEPA, a scoping
process will be conducted to (i) aid in
determining the alternatives to be
considered and the scope of issues to be
addressed, and (ii) identify the
significant issues related to the
proposed Master Plan for the
redevelopment of the St. Es West
Campus. Scoping will be accomplished
through a public scoping meeting, direct
mail correspondence to potentially
interested persons, agencies, and
organizations, and meetings with
agencies having an interest in the
proposed Master Plan. It is important
that Federal, regional, and local
agencies, and interested individuals and
groups take this opportunity to identify
environmental concerns that should be
addressed during the preparation of the
Draft EIS.
GSA is also using the NEPA scoping
process to facilitate consultation with
the public under Section 106 of the
National Historic Preservation Act (36
CFR Part 800 [Protection of Historic
Properties]). GSA welcomes comments
from the public to ensure that it takes
into account the effects of its action on
historic and cultural resources.
Public Scoping Meeting
The public scoping meeting will be
held on Tuesday, June 14, 2005, from
6:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., at Birney
Elementary School (Auditorium),
located at 2501 Martin Luther King Jr.
Avenue in Southeast Washington, DC.
The meeting will be an informal open
house, where visitors may come, receive
information, and give comments. GSA
will publish notices in the Washington
Post, Washington Times, and a local
community newspaper announcing this
meeting approximately two weeks prior
to the meeting. GSA will prepare a
scoping report, available to the public
that will summarize the comments
received for incorporation into the EIS
and Section 106 processes.
Written Comments: Agencies and the
public are encouraged to provide
written comments on the scoping issues
in addition to or in lieu of giving their
comments at the public scoping
meeting. Written comments regarding

Executive Summary
• This RFA will support up to six
registries to conduct enhanced
surveillance and operations research
utilizing population-based data from the
National Program of Cancer Registries
(NPCR). The research will focus on
improving the completeness, timeliness,
quality, and use of first course of
treatment and stage data, and on
describing patterns of care for female
breast cancer and prostate cancer. A
long term goal is to strengthen the
capacity of NPCR funded state cancer
registries to use their data to improve
aspects of cancer care.
• It is estimated that approximately
$2 million will be available each year to
fund up to six registries. A total of
approximately $6 million will be
available for the entire three year project
period.
• This funding opportunity will use
the cooperative agreement funding
mechanism (CDC U58).

I. Funding Opportunity Description
The purpose of this RFA is to support
research focused on two priority
cancers, female breast cancer and
prostate cancer, which will build on and
expand the work of two Patterns of Care
(PoC) projects conducted collaboratively
by CDC and selected state cancer
registries. This program addresses the
‘‘Healthy People 2010’’ focus areas of
Access to Quality Health Services and
Cancer.
Measurable outcomes of the program
will be in alignment with the following
performance goals for the National
Center for Chronic Disease Prevention
and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP): (1)
To improve the quality of state-based
cancer registries, (2) to increase early
detection of breast and cervical cancer
by building nationwide programs in
breast and cervical prevention,
especially among high-risk, underserved
women, and (3) to expand communitybased breast and cervical cancer
screening and diagnostic services to low
income, medically underserved women.
For women diagnosed with cancer or
pre-cancer, ensure access to treatment
services.
1. Research Objectives
Nature of Research Opportunity
The research priorities of the Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention’s
(CDC) Cancer Surveillance Branch,
within the Division of Cancer
Prevention and Control, are to describe
the burden of priority cancers and
patterns of care among minority, rural,
and other populations and to assess the
quality of these data in NPCR funded
cancer registries. This RFA builds on
and extends the work of two patterns of
care (PoC) projects conducted
collaboratively by CDC and selected
state cancer registries. It solicits
applications in the form of cooperative
agreements to utilize data from NPCR

The General Services Administration intends to prepare an
