each test are unknown at this time, but
will be clearly outlined in each

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: Screening, Brief Intervention,
Brief Treatment and Referral to
Treatment (SBIRT) Cross-Site
Evaluation—New
SAMHSA is conducting a cross-site
external evaluation of the impact of
programs of screening, brief
intervention (BI), brief treatment (BT)
and referral to treatment on patients
presenting at various health care
delivery units with a continuum of
severity of substance use. SAMHSA’s
SBIRT program is a cooperative
agreement grant program designed to
help States and Tribal Councils expand
the continuum of care available for
substance misuse and use disorders.
The program includes screening, brief
intervention, brief treatment and
referrals to treatment for persons at risk
for dependence on alcohol or drugs. The
cross-site evaluation will provide a
comprehensive assessment of the effects
of SBIRT on patient outcomes,
performance site practices, and
treatment systems. This information
will allow SAMHSA to determine the
extent to which SBIRT has met its
objectives of implementing a
comprehensive system of identification
and care to meet the needs of
individuals at all points along the
substance use continuum.
A paper and pencil survey will be
administered to practitioners in sites
where SBIRT services are being
delivered. The practitioner survey is
designed to evaluate the
implementation of proposed SBIRT
models by measuring their penetration
and practitioners’ willingness to adopt.
Furthermore, the survey will document
moderating factors related to
practitioner and health care delivery
unit characteristics.
The 93 question practitioner survey
includes collection of demographic
information as well as questions that
attempt to assess barriers to
implementation encountered by the
practitioners and to gauge the
effectiveness of the training they
received. These measures were
developed and used by Babor et al.
(2005) in their comparable study
comparing different implementation
strategies for primary care screening and
brief intervention programs for
hazardous and harmful drinkers. The
practitioner survey also includes an
instrument developed by Panzano and
Roth (2006) to measures an
organization’s willingness to adopt new
innovative practices.

Background and Purpose
SAFE Port Act and the IOC Project
The Security and Accountability for
Every Port Act of 2006 (SAFE Port Act),
Public Law 109–347, 120 Stat. 1884,
was enacted to improve maritime and
United States port security through
enhanced layered defenses. Section 108
of the SAFE Port Act directs the
establishment of IOCs at all high
priority ports that ‘‘utilize, as
appropriate, the compositional and
operations characteristics of existing
centers’’ and are ‘‘organized to fit the
security needs, requirements, and
resources of the individual port area at
which each is operating.’’
The Coast Guard IOC Project will
satisfy this mandate through the
development and transformation of
approximately 35 existing Coast Guard
Sector Command Centers (SCCs) over
the next 12 years into coordinated
planning and operations centers.
Purpose of the IOC Project
The purpose of the proposed
nationwide implementation of the IOC
Project is to improve unity of effort
among Federal, State, tribal, and local
port partners with shared port security
responsibilities by providing
interagency command and control
