Comment Request
In compliance with the requirement
for opportunity for public comment on
proposed data collection projects
(section 3506(c)(2)(A) of Title 44, United
States Code, as amended by the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, Pub.
L. 104–13), the Health Resources and
Services Administration (HRSA)
publishes periodic summaries of
proposed projects being developed for
submission to the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) under the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995. To request more
information on the proposed project or
to obtain a copy of the data collection
plans and draft instruments, e-mail
paperwork@hrsa.gov or call the HRSA
Reports Clearance Officer at (301) 443–
1129.
Comments are invited on: (a) The
proposed collection of information for
the proper performance of the functions
of the agency; (b) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including through the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology.

Other Facilities’’ Construction Program:

activities and/or capital equipment
purchases. Awarded facilities are
required to provide HRSA with a
periodic (quarterly for constructionrelated projects, annually for equipment
only projects) update of the status of the
funded project until it is completed. The
monitoring period averages about 3
years, although some projects take up to
5 years to complete. The information
collected from these updates is vital to
program management staff to determine
whether projects are progressing
according to the established timeframes,
meeting deadlines established in the
Notice of Grant Award (NGA), drawing
down funds appropriately. The data
collected from the updates is also
shared with the Division of Grants
Management Operations (DGMO),
which assists in the overall evaluation
of each project’s progress. A Web-based
form has been developed for progress
reporting for the HCOF program. This
form will allow awardees the ability to
directly input the required status update
information in a timely, consistent, and
uniform manner. The Web-based form
will minimize burden to respondents
and will inform respondents when there
are missing data elements prior to
submission.

Proposed Project: Combating Autism
Act Initiative Evaluation (New) .
Background: In response to the
growing need for research and resources
devoted to autism spectrum disorder
(ASD) and other developmental
disorders (DD), the U.S. Congress passed
the Combating Autism Act (CAA) in
2006. This Act authorized Federal
programs to combat ASD and other DD
through research, screening,
intervention, and education. Through
the CAA, the Health Resources and
Services Administration (HRSA) is
tasked with increasing awareness of
ASD and other DD, reducing barriers to
screening and diagnosis, promoting
evidence-based interventions, and
training health care professionals in the
use of valid and reliable screening and
diagnostic tools.
Purpose: HRSA’s activities under this
legislation are conducted by the
Maternal and Child Health Bureau
E:\FR\FM\04MYN1.SGM
04MYN1
23773
Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 85 / Tuesday, May 4, 2010 / Notices
(MCHB), which is implementing the
Combating Autism Act Initiative (CAAI)
in response to the legislative mandate.
The purpose of this evaluation is to
design and implement a three-year
assessment of the effectiveness of
MCHB’s activities in meeting the goals
and objectives of the CAAI, and to
provide sufficient data to inform MCHB
and the Congress as to the utility of the
grant programs funded under the
Initiative. To address the requirements
for the Report to Congress, the
evaluation will focus on short-term
indicators related to: (1) Increasing
awareness of ASD and other DD among
health care providers, other MCH
professionals and the general public; (2)
reducing barriers to screening and
diagnosis; (3) supporting research on
evidence-based interventions; (4)
promoting the development of evidencebased guidelines and tested/validated
intervention tools; and (5) training
professionals.
Respondents: Grantees funded by
HRSA under the CAAI will be the
respondents for this data collection
activity. The programs to be evaluated
are listed below.
1. Training Programs
• Leadership Education in
Neurodevelopmental Disabilities
(LEND) training programs with thirty
nine grantees; and
• Developmental Behavioral
Pediatrics (DBP) training programs with
six grantees.
2. Research Programs
• Two Autism Intervention Research
Networks that focus on intervention
research, guideline development, and
information dissemination;
• Five R40 Maternal and Child Health
(MCH) Autism Intervention Research
Program grantees that support research
on evidence-based practices for
interventions to improve the health and
well-being of children and adolescents
with ASD and other DD; and
• Two R40 MCH Autism Intervention
Secondary Data Analysis Study (SDAS)
Program grantees that support research
on evidence-based practices for
interventions to improve the health and
well-being of children and adolescents
with ASD and other DD, utilizing
exclusively the analysis of existing
secondary data.
3. State Implementation Program Grants
for Improving Services for Children and
Youth With Autism Spectrum Disorder
(ASD) and Other Developmental
Disabilities (DD)
• Nine grantees will implement state
autism plans and develop models for
improving the system of care for
children and youth with ASD and other
DD.
The data gathered through this
evaluation will be used to:
• Evaluate the grantees’ performance
in achieving the objectives of the CAAI
during the three year grant period;
• Assess the short- and intermediateterm impacts of the grant programs on
children and
• families affected by ASD and other
DD;
• Measure the CAAI outputs and
outcomes for the Report to Congress;
and
• Provide foundation data for future
measurement of the initiative’s longterm impact.
The estimated response burden is
shown in Table 1.
