Agency Information Collection
Activities: Proposed Collection;
Comment Request
In compliance with Section
3506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 concerning
opportunity for public comment on
proposed collections of information, the
Substance Abuse and Mental Health
Services Administration (SAMHSA)
will publish periodic summaries of
proposed projects. To request more
information on the proposed projects or
to obtain a copy of the information
collection plans, call the SAMHSA
Reports Clearance Officer on (240) 276–
1243.
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the proposed collections of information
are necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether the
information shall have practical utility;
(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.
Proposed Project: Protection and
Advocacy for Individuals With Mental
Illness (PAIMI) Final Rule, 42 CFR Part
51 (OMB No. 0930–0172)—Extension
These regulations meet the directive
under 42 U.S.C. 10826(b) requiring the
Secretary to promulgate final
regulations to carry out the PAIMI Act.
The regulations contain information
collection requirements. The Act
authorizes funds to support activities on
behalf of individuals with significant
(severe) mental illness (adults) or
emotional impairment (children/youth)
[42 U.S.C. 10802 (4)]. Only entities
designated by the governor of each
State, including American Samoa,
Guam, the Commonwealth of the
Northern Mariana Islands, the
Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the U.S.
Virgin Islands, the Mayor of the District

of Columbia, and the tribal councils for
the American Indian Consortium (the
Hopi and Navajo Nations in the Four
Corners region of the Southwest), to
protect and advocate the rights of
persons with developmental disabilities
are eligible to receive PAIMI Program
grants [the Act at 42 U.S.C. at 10802 (2)].
These grants are based on a formula
prescribed by the Secretary [42 U.S.C. at
10822(a) (1) (A)].
On January 1, each eligible State
protection and advocacy (P&A) system
is required to prepare a report that
describes its activities,
accomplishments, and expenditures to
protect the rights of individuals with
mental illness supported with payments
from PAIMI Program allotments during
the most recently completed fiscal year.
The PAIMI Act [at 42 U.S.C. 10824(a)]
requires that each P&A system transmit
a copy of its annual report to the
Secretary (via SAMHSA/CMHS) and to
the State Mental Health Agency where
the system is located. These annual
PAIMI Program Performance Reports
(PPR) to the Secretary must include the
following information:
• The number of (PAIMI-eligible)
individuals with mental illness served;
• A description of the types of
activities undertaken;
• A description of the types of
facilities providing care or treatment to
which such activities are undertaken;
• A description of the manner in
which the activities are initiated;
• A description of the
accomplishments resulting from such
activities;
• A description of systems to protect
and advocate the rights of individuals
with mental illness supported with
payments from PAIMI Program
allotments;
• A description of activities
conducted by States to protect and
advocate such rights;
• A description of mechanisms
established by residential facilities for
individuals with mental illness to
protect such rights; and,
• A description of the coordination
among such systems, activities and
mechanisms;
• Specification of the number systems
that are public and nonprofit systems
established with PAIMI Program
allotments;
• Recommendations for activities and
services to improve the protection and
advocacy of the rights of individuals
with mental illness and a description of
the need for such activities and services
that were not met by the State P&A
systems established under the PAIMI
Act due to resource or annual program
priority limitations.

Project: Addiction Technology Transfer
Centers (ATTC) Network Program
Monitoring (OMB No. 0930–0216)—
Extension
The Substance Abuse and Mental
Health Administration’s (SAMHSA)
Center for Substance Abuse Treatment
(CSAT) will continue to monitor
program performance of its Addiction
Technology Transfer Centers (ATTCs).
The ATTCs disseminate current health
services research from the National
Institute on Drug Abuse, National
Institute on Alcohol Abuse and
Alcoholism, National Institute of Mental
Health, Agency for Health Care Policy
and Research, National Institute of
Justice, and other sources, as well as
other SAMHSA programs. To
accomplish this, the ATTCs develop
and update state-of-the-art, researchbased curricula and professional
development training.
CSAT monitors the performance of
ATTC events. The ATTCs hold three
types of events: Technical assistance
events, meetings, and trainings. An
ATTC technical assistance event is
defined as a jointly planned
consultation generally involving a series
of contacts between the ATTC and an
outside organization/institution during
which the ATTC provides expertise and
gives direction toward resolving a
problem or improving conditions. An
ATTC meeting is defined as an ATTC
sponsored or co-sponsored events in
which a group of people representing

one or more agencies other than the
ATTC work cooperatively on a project,
problem, and/or a policy. An ATTC
training is defined as an ATTC
sponsored or co-sponsored event of at
least three hours that focuses on the
enhancement of knowledge and/or
skills. Higher education classes are
included in this definition with each
course considered as one training event.
CSAT currently uses seven (7)
instruments to monitor the performance
and improve the quality of ATTC
events. Two (2) of these forms, the
Meeting Follow-up Form and the
Technical Assistance Follow-up Form,
are currently approved by the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) through
approval for CSAT Government
Performance and Results Act (GPRA)
Customer Satisfaction instruments
(OMB No. 0930–0197). CSAT is not
seeking any action related to these two
forms at this time. They are merely
referenced here to provide clarity and
context to the description of the forms
CSAT uses to monitor the performance
of the ATTCs.
The remaining five (5) instruments for
program monitoring and quality
improvement of ATTC events are
currently approved by the OMB (OMB
No. 0930–0216) for use through April
30, 2013. These five forms are as
follows: Event Description Form;
Training Post Event Form; Training
Follow-up Form; Meeting Post Event
Form; and Technical Assistance Post
Event Form. Sixty percent of the forms
are administered in person to
participants at educational and training
events, who complete the forms by
paper and pencil. Ten percent of the
training courses are online, and thus,
those forms are administered online.
The remaining thirty percent is made up
