Agency Information Collection
Activities: Submission for OMB
Review; Comment Request
Periodically, the Substance Abuse and
Mental Health Services Administration
(SAMHSA) will publish a summary of
information collection requests under
OMB review, in compliance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.
Chapter 35). To request a copy of these
documents, call the SAMHSA Reports
Clearance Officer on (240) 276–1243.
Project: Targeted Capacity Expansion
Grants for Jail Diversion Program
Evaluation—In Use Without Approval
The Substance Abuse and Mental
Health Services Administration’s
(SAMHSA), Center for Mental Health
Services (CMHS) has implemented the
Targeted Capacity Expansion Grants for
Jail Diversion Programs. CMHS has
developed a set of client outcome
measures that will be collected over the
length of the program.
Each jail diversion program
participant has been approached to
PO 00000
Frm 00036
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

request their consent for participation.
The main components of the baseline, 6and 12-month interviews are
Government Performance and Results
Act (GPRA) measures. In addition to
GPRA measures, the interviews include
the following measures:
• DC Trauma Collaboration Study
Violence and Trauma Screening to
gauge traumatic events in the past year
and lifetime (Baseline only)
• Colorado Symptom Index 1991 to
gauge symptoms of mental illness (All
interviews)
• Perceived Coercion Scale (from
MacArthur Mandated Community
Treatment Survey) to enter jail diversion
programs (Baseline only)
• Mental Health Statistics
Improvement Program quality of life
measures (6 and 12 months only)
• Service use (6 and 12 months only)
In addition to data collected through
interviews, grantees will collect the
following information and will report it
to the Technical Assistance and Policy
Analysis (TAPA) Center:
• Events Tracking: This program
captures the volume of activities
(‘‘events’’) that jail diversion programs
engage in to determine whom the
program will serve.
• Person Tracking: This program is
designed to record basic information on
all individuals who are diverted and
served with grant funds. It also helps
grantees keep track of interview dates
for those program participants who
agree to take part in the evaluation.
• Service Use: Grantees collect selfreported data on services provided or
information from official sources, such
as statewide/agency management
information systems or other agency
records about the types of services
received following diversion. This data
must be provided to the TAPA Center.
• Arrest and Jail Days Data: Grantees
report arrest and jail days data collected
from official sources, such as a
statewide criminal justice database, or
that have been tracked for themselves
for one year prior and one year
following diversion.
As mentioned above, grantees collect
this data from official sources or selfreport data from their programs and
submit it to the TAPA Center. This data
is reported to the technical assistance
provider through an electronic database
system or through paper copies.
Resulting compiled data is used to
provide information of interest to policy
makers, researchers, and communities
engaged in developing jail diversion
programs.

those program enrollees agreeing to participate in the evaluation receive a Baseline interview.
2 This estimate is an added burden proportion which is an adjustment reflecting the extent to which programs typically already collect the data
items. The formula for calculating the proportion of added burden is: total number of items in the standard instrument, minus the number of core
items currently included, divided by the total number of items in the standard instrument. For the TCE Initiative’s interviews the estimates were
calculated as follows: For the Baseline interview the burden estimate = 450 times 0.64 (the proportion of added burden) = 288. For the 6-Month
interview the burden estimate = 360 times 0.73 (the proportion of added burden) = 263. For the 12-Month interview the burden estimate = 285
times 0.72 (the proportion of added burden) = 205.
3 The number of responses per respondent for the Events Tracking depends on the design of the jail diversion program and can range from a
single screening for eligibility to four separate screenings; here 2 responses represents the average number of responses per respondent based
on the experience of the previous grantees.
4 For the Person Tracking program the burden estimate was calculated as follows: 80 times 0.65 (the proportion of added burden) = 52 (see
Footnote 2 above for more information about the burden proportion).

and Budget (OMB) for review and
clearance in accordance with the
requirements of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995. The submission

Abstract: Many data products and
reports exist that contain fragmented or
estimated information about fire
department demographics, and
capabilities, but there is no single
reference source today that aggregates
this data to provide a complete and
accurate profile of fire departments in
the United States. The U.S. Fire
Administration (USFA) 1 receives many
requests for information related to fire
departments, including total number of
departments, number of stations per
department, population protected,
apparatus and equipment status. The
USFA is working to identify all fire
departments in the United States to
develop and populate a national
database that will include information
related to demographics, capabilities
and activities. The database will be used
by USFA to guide programmatic
decisions, provide the Fire Service and
the public with information about fire
departments, to produce mailing lists
for USFA publications and other
1 The U.S, Fire Administration is currently being
transferred to the newly created Preparedness
Directorate of the Department of Homeland
Security. During this transition FEMA, also part of
the Department of Homeland Security, will
continue to support this program as the new
Directorate stands up. Ultimately this data
collection will be transferred to the Preparedness
Directorate.

added burden) = 159. For the 6-Month interview the burden estimate = 203 times 0.73 (the proportion of added
burden) = 148. For the 12-Month interview the burden estimate = 158 times 0.72 (the proportion of added
burden) = 114.
\3\ The number of responses per respondent for the Events Tracking depends on the design of the jail diversion
program and can range from a single screening for eligibility to four separate screenings; here 2 responses
represents the average number of responses per respondent based on the experience of the previous grantees.
\4\ For the Person Tracking program the burden estimate was calculated as follows: 45 times 0.65 (the proportion
of added burden) = 29 (see Footnote 2 above for more information about the burden proportion).
\5\ Record management forms (Service Use and Arrest) are only completed for those evaluation participants who
receive both a Baseline interview and at least one follow-up (6- and/or 12-month) interview.

\1\ Only those program enrollees agreeing to participate in the evaluation receive a Baseline interview.
\2\ This estimate is an added burden proportion which is an adjustment reflecting the extent to which programs
typically already collect the data items. The formula for calculating the proportion of added burden is: total
number of items in the standard instrument, minus the number of core items currently included, divided by the
total number of items in the standard instrument. For the TCE Initiative's interviews the estimates were
calculated as follows: For the Baseline interview the burden estimate = 165 times 0.64 (the proportion of
added burden) = 106. For the 6-Month interview the burden estimate = 135 times 0.73 (the proportion of added
burden) = 99. For the 12-Month interview the burden estimate = 105 times 0.72 (the proportion of added burden)
= 76.
\3\ The number of responses per respondent for the Events Tracking depends on the design of the jail diversion
program and can range from a single screening for eligibility to four separate screenings; here 2 responses
represents the average number of responses per respondent based on the experience of the previous grantees.
\4\ For the Person Tracking program the burden estimate was calculated as follows: 30 times 0.65 (the proportion
of added burden) = 20 (see Footnote 2 above for more information about the burden proportion).
\5\ Record management forms (Service Use and Arrest) are only completed for those evaluation participants who
receive both a Baseline interview and at least one follow-up (6- and/or 12-month) interview.
The averages for the three years of evaluations are 988 responses,
26,894 total responses, and 1,373 hours of burden.
Written comments and recommendations concerning the proposed
information collection should be sent by March 1, 2006 to: SAMHSA Desk
