SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the June
8, 2007, issue of the Federal Register
(72 FR 31824), the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency and U.S. Army Corps
of Engineers announced the issuance of
agency guidance, which took effect on
that date, regarding Clean Water Act
(CWA) jurisdiction following the U.S.
Supreme Court’s decision in the
consolidated cases Rapanos v. Carabell
v. United States (126 S. Ct. 2208 (2006))
(‘‘Rapanos’’).
The agencies invited public comment
and case studies during the first six
months implementing the guidance,
only early experience with
implementing the guidance. Several
entities have requested an extension of
the comment period for the guidance.
The EPA and the Corps find that a 45day extension of the comment period is
warranted. Therefore, the comment
period is extended until January 21,
2008.
The agencies, within nine months
after the Rapanos guidance was issued,
intend to either reissue, revise, or
suspend the guidance after carefully
considering the public comments
received and field experience with
implementing the guidance. A copy of
the guidance can be found on EPA’s
Web site at https://www.epa.gov/owow/

ACTION:
SUMMARY: The Federal Medical
Assistance Percentages and Enhanced
Federal Medical Assistance Percentages
for Fiscal Year 2009 have been
calculated pursuant to the Social
Security Act (the Act). These
percentages will be effective from
October 1, 2008 through September 30,
2009. This notice announces the
calculated ‘‘Federal Medical Assistance
Percentages’’ and ‘‘Enhanced Federal
Medical Assistance Percentages’’ that
The U.S. Department of Health and
Human Services (HHS) will use in
determining the amount of Federal
matching for State medical assistance
(Medicaid) and State Children’s Health
Insurance Program (SCHIP)
expenditures, and Temporary
Assistance for needy Families (TANF)

Development Funds, Foster Care Title
IV–E Maintenance payments, and
Adoption Assistance payments. The
table gives figures for each of the 50
States, the District of Columbia, Puerto
Rico, the Virgin Islands, Guam,
American Samoa, and the
Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana
Islands. Programs under title XIX of the
Act existing each jurisdiction. Programs
under titles I, X, and XIV operate only
in Guam and the Virgin Islands, while
a program under the title XVI (Aid to
the Aged, Blind, or Disabled) operates
only in Puerto Rico.
Programs under title XXI began
operating in fiscal year 1998. The
percentages in this notice apply to State
expenditures for most medical services
and medical insurance services, and
assistance payments for certain social
services. The statute provides separately
for Federal matching of administrative
costs.
Sections 1905(b) and 1101(a)(8)(B) of
the Act require the Secretary, HHS to
publish the Federal Medical Assistance
Percentages each year. The Secretary is
to calculate the percentages, using
formulas in sections 1905(b) and
1101(a)(8)(B), from the Department of
Commerce’s statistics of average income
per person in each State and for the
Nation as a whole. The percentages are
within the upper and lower limits given
in section 1905(b) of the Act. The
percentages to be applied to the District
of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the Virgin
Islands, Guam, American Samoa, and
the Northern Mariana Islands are
specified in statute, and thus are not
based on the statutory formula that
determines the percentages for the 50
states.
67305
The ‘‘Federal Medical Assistance
Percentages’’ are for Medicaid. Section
1905(b) of the Act specifies the formula
for calculating Federal Medical
Assistance Percentages as follows:
percentage points by which (1) such Federal
medical assistance percentage for the State, is
less than (2) 100 percent; but in no case shall
the enhanced FMAP for a State exceed 85
percent.
‘‘Federal medical assistance percentage’’
for any State shall be 100 per centum less the
State percentage; and the State percentage
shall be that percentage which bears the same
ratio to 45 per centum as the square of the
per capita income of such State bears to the
square of the per capita income of the
continental United States (including Alaska)
and Hawaii; except that (1) the Federal
medical assistance percentage shall in no
case be less than 50 per centum or more than
83 per centum, (2) the Federal medical
assistance percentage for Puerto Rico, the
Virgin Islands; Guam, the Northern Mariana
Islands, and American Samoa shall be 50 per
centum. * * *
The ‘‘Enhanced Federal Medical
Assistance Percentages’’ are for use in
the State Children’s Health Insurance
Program under Title XXI, and in the
Medicaid program for certain children
for expenditures for medical assistance
described in sections 1905(u)(2) and
1905(u)(3) of the Act. There is no
specific requirement to publish the
Enhanced Federal Medical Assistance
Percentages. We include them in this
notice for the convenience of the States.
DATES: Effective Dates: The percentages
listed will be effective for each of the 4
quarter-year periods in the period
beginning October 1, 2008 and ending
September 30, 2009.

SUMMARY: The Federal Medical Assistance Percentages and Enhanced
Federal Medical Assistance Percentages for Fiscal Year 2009 have been
calculated pursuant to the Social Security Act (the Act). These
percentages will be effective from October 1, 2008 through September
30, 2009. This notice announces the calculated ``Federal Medical
Assistance Percentages'' and ``Enhanced Federal Medical Assistance
Percentages'' that The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services
(HHS) will use in determining the amount of Federal matching for State
medical assistance (Medicaid) and State Children's Health Insurance
Program (SCHIP) expenditures, and Temporary Assistance for needy
Families (TANF) Contingency Funds, the federal share of Child Support
Enforcement collections, Child Care Mandatory and Matching Funds of the
Child Care and
[[Page 67305]]
Development Funds, Foster Care Title IV-E Maintenance payments, and
Adoption Assistance payments. The table gives figures for each of the
50 States, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands,
Guam, American Samoa, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana
Islands. Programs under title XIX of the Act existing each
jurisdiction. Programs under titles I, X, and XIV operate only in Guam
and the Virgin Islands, while a program under the title XVI (Aid to the
Aged, Blind, or Disabled) operates only in Puerto Rico.
Programs under title XXI began operating in fiscal year 1998. The
percentages in this notice apply to State expenditures for most medical
services and medical insurance services, and assistance payments for
certain social services. The statute provides separately for Federal
matching of administrative costs.
Sections 1905(b) and 1101(a)(8)(B) of the Act require the
Secretary, HHS to publish the Federal Medical Assistance Percentages
each year. The Secretary is to calculate the percentages, using
formulas in sections 1905(b) and 1101(a)(8)(B), from the Department of
Commerce's statistics of average income per person in each State and
for the Nation as a whole. The percentages are within the upper and
lower limits given in section 1905(b) of the Act. The percentages to be
applied to the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands,
Guam, American Samoa, and the Northern Mariana Islands are specified in
statute, and thus are not based on the statutory formula that
determines the percentages for the 50 states.
The ``Federal Medical Assistance Percentages'' are for Medicaid.
Section 1905(b) of the Act specifies the formula for calculating
Federal Medical Assistance Percentages as follows:
``Federal medical assistance percentage'' for any State shall be
100 per centum less the State percentage; and the State percentage
shall be that percentage which bears the same ratio to 45 per centum
as the square of the per capita income of such State bears to the
square of the per capita income of the continental United States
(including Alaska) and Hawaii; except that (1) the Federal medical
assistance percentage shall in no case be less than 50 per centum or
more than 83 per centum, (2) the Federal medical assistance
percentage for Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands; Guam, the Northern
Mariana Islands, and American Samoa shall be 50 per centum. * * *
Section 4725(b) of the Balanced Budget Act of 1997 amended section
1905(b) to provide that the Federal Medical Assistance Percentage for
the District of Columbia for purposes of titles XIX, and for the
purpose of calculating the enhanced FMAP under title XXI, shall be 70
percent. For the District of Columbia, we note under the table of
Federal Medical Assistance Percentages the rate that applies in certain
other programs calculated using the formula otherwise applicable, and
the rate that applies in certain other programs pursuant to section
1118 of the Social Security Act.
Section 2105(b) of the Act specifies the formula for calculating
the Enhanced Federal Medical Assistance Percentages as follows:
The ``enhanced FMAP'', for a State for a fiscal year, is equal
to the Federal medical assistance percentage (as defined in the
first sentence of section 1905(b)) for the State increased by a
number of percentage points equal to 30 percent of the number of
percentage points by which (1) such Federal medical assistance
percentage for the State, is less than (2) 100 percent; but in no
case shall the enhanced FMAP for a State exceed 85 percent.
The ``Enhanced Federal Medical Assistance Percentages'' are for use
in the State Children's Health Insurance Program under Title XXI, and
in the Medicaid program for certain children for expenditures for
medical assistance described in sections 1905(u)(2) and 1905(u)(3) of
the Act. There is no specific requirement to publish the Enhanced
Federal Medical Assistance Percentages. We include them in this notice
for the convenience of the States.
DATES: Effective Dates: The percentages listed will be effective for
each of the 4 quarter-year periods in the period beginning October 1,
2008 and ending September 30, 2009.
