Healthy Tomorrows Partnership for Children Program
Document Number: 2012-10507
Type: Notice
Date: 2012-05-02
Agency: Department of Health and Human Services, Health Resources and Services Administration
The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) will be issuing a non-competitive one-year extension with funds for the National Healthy Tomorrows Technical Assistance Resource Center at the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP). Up to $176,855 will be awarded over a one-year extended project period. The National Healthy Tomorrows Technical Assistance Resource Center provides support for the activities of the Healthy Tomorrows Partnership for Children Program (HTPCP), community-based grants that address priority issues determined by the community. Through a cooperative agreement, the Resource Center also offers consultation to HTPCP program participants to ensure successful implementation and sustainability of community-based initiatives; facilitates involvement of local partners such as pediatricians, State/local AAP chapters, State/local maternal and child health agencies, and other private sector partners in HTPCP projects to promote successful implementation of community-based maternal and child health initiatives; and conducts a national evaluation of HTPCP projects that assesses critical factors contributing to program sustainability, effectiveness and impact of community-based projects post HTPCP funding, and the ability of projects to develop meaningful evaluation and sustainability plans. A 2005 national evaluation found that 80 percent of HTPCP projects are fully or partially sustained 5 years post-Federal funding. The proposed extension with funds will allow the Maternal and Child Health Bureau (MCHB) to align the National Healthy Tomorrows Technical Assistance Resource Center with the National Center for Medical Home Implementation.

Revisions to the Export Administration Regulations (EAR): Control of Energetic Materials and Related Articles That the President Determines No Longer Warrant Control Under the United States Munitions List (USML)
Document Number: 2012-10456
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2012-05-02
Agency: Department of Commerce, Bureau of Industry and Security
The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) publishes this proposed rule describing how energetic materials and related articles that the President determines no longer warrant control under Category V (Explosives and Energetic Materials, Propellants, Incendiary Agents and Their Constituents) of the United States Munitions List (USML) would be controlled under the Commerce Control List (CCL) in new Export Control Classification Numbers (ECCNs) 1B608, 1C608, 1D608, and 1E608. If implemented, this proposed rule would also control under ECCN 1C111 some of the aluminum powder and hydrazine and derivatives thereof that are now controlled under Category V of the USML. This proposed rule also would control equipment for the ``production'' of explosives and solid propellants, currently controlled under ECCN 1B018.a, and related ``software,'' currently controlled under ECCN 1D018, under new ECCNs 1B608 and 1D608, respectively. In addition, this proposed rule would control commercial charges and devices containing energetic materials, which are currently controlled under ECCN 1C018, under new ECCN 1C608. This is one of a planned series of proposed rules describing how various types of articles that the President determines, as part of the Administration's Export Control Reform Initiative, no longer warrant control on the USML, under the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR), would be controlled on the CCL in accordance with the requirements of the Export Administration Regulations (EAR).

Document Number: 2012-10340
Type: Proposed Rule
Date: 2012-05-02
Agency: Environmental Protection Agency
EPA proposes to approve the State Implementation Plan (SIP) revision submitted by the Maryland Department of Environment to revise the Maryland State Implementation Plan (SIP). The revision removes a 1980 Consent Order issued to the Maryland Slag Company (now known as MultServ). The 1980 Consent Order is no longer required to satisfy applicable Federal regulations and the Clean Air Act (CAA). In the Final Rules section of this Federal Register, EPA is approving the State's SIP submittal as a direct final rule without prior proposal because the Agency views this as a noncontroversial submittal and anticipates no adverse comments. A detailed rationale for the approval is set forth in the direct final rule. If no adverse comments are received in response to this action, no further activity is contemplated. If EPA receives adverse comments, the direct final rule will be withdrawn and all public comments received will be addressed in a subsequent final rule based on this proposed rule. EPA will not institute a second comment period. Any parties interested in commenting on this action should do so at this time.
