In accordance with the requirements of the Privacy Act of 1974, we are proposing to establish a new system titled, ``Medicare Care Management for High Cost Beneficiaries (CMHCB), System No. 09-70- 0580.'' The program is authorized under provisions of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. Section 1395b-1(a)), which gives the Secretary the broad authority to, `develop and engage in experiments and demonstration projects.' The CMHCB program seeks to improve beneficiary self-care and provide beneficiaries and their providers enhanced information and support in order to increase adherence to evidence- based care. Improvements in these areas are expected to generate savings to the Medicare program to offset the costs of the payments. Each CMHCB program is an experimental design involving assignment of beneficiaries to either an intervention or control group. The purpose of this system is to collect and maintain demographic and health related data on the target population of Medicare beneficiaries who are potential participants in the CMHCB program. We will also collect certain identifying information on Medicare providers who provide services to such beneficiaries. Information retrieved from this system may be disclosed to: (1) Support regulatory, reimbursement, and policy functions performed within the agency or by a contractor, grantee, consultant or other legal agent; (2) assist another Federal or state agency with information to contribute to the accuracy of CMS's proper payment of Medicare benefits, enable such agency to administer a Federal health benefits program, or to enable such agency to fulfill a requirement of Federal statute or regulation that implements a health benefits program funded in whole or in part with Federal funds; (3) support an individual or organization for a research project or in support of an evaluation project related to the prevention of disease or disability, the restoration or maintenance of health, or payment related projects; (4) support litigation involving the agency; and (5) combat fraud and abuse in certain Federally-funded health benefits programs. We have provided background information about the new system in the Supplementary Information section below. Although the Privacy Act requires only that CMS provide an opportunity for interested persons to comment on the proposed routine uses, CMS invites comments on all portions of this notice. See ``Effective Dates'' section for comment period.

NMFS announces the closure of the Nantucket Lightship Scallop Access Area (NLCA) to scallop vessels until June 15, 2007. This closure, effective 0001 hours on July 20, 2006, is based on a determination by the Northeast Regional Administrator (RA) that scallop vessels may attain the yellowtail flounder (YT) bycatch total allowable catch (TAC) for the NLCA on July 20, 2006. This action is being taken to prevent the scallop fleet from exceeding the YT bycatch TAC allocated to the NLCA for the 2006 scallop fishing year in accordance with the regulations implementing the Atlantic Sea Scallop Fishery Management Plan (FMP), Northeast (NE) Multispecies FMP and the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act.

The U.S. Commission on Civil Rights (Commission) now seeks public comments on the following guidelines covering pre-dissemination information quality control and an administrative mechanism for requests for correction of information the Commission publicly disseminates.
