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 at (240) 276–

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

other forms of information technology.
Proposed Project: Biannual
Infrastructure Development Measures
for State Adolescent Treatment
Enhancement and Dissemination (SAT–
ED) and State Youth Treatment
Enhancement and Dissemination (SYT–
ED) Programs—NEW
The Substance Abuse and Mental
Health Services Administration
(SAMHSA), Center for Substance Abuse
Treatment has developed a set of
infrastructure development measures in
which recipients of cooperative
agreements will report on various
benchmarks on a semi-annual basis. The
infrastructure development measures
are designed to collect information at
the state-level and site-level.
The infrastructure development
measures are based on the programmatic
requirements conveyed in TI–12–006,
Cooperative Agreements for State
Adolescent Treatment Enhancement
and Dissemination (SAT–ED) and TI–
13–014, Cooperative Agreements for
State Youth Treatment Enhancement
and Dissemination (SYT–ED).
The purpose of this program is to
provide funding to States/Territories/
Tribes to improve treatment for
adolescents and transitional age youth
through the development of a learning
laboratory with collaborating local
community-based treatment provider
sites. Through the shared experience
between the State/Territory/Tribe and
the local community-based treatment
provider sites, an evidence-based
practice (EBP) will be implemented,
youth and families will be provided
services, and a feedback loop will be
developed to enable the State/Territory/
Tribe and the sites to identify barriers
and test solutions through a services
component operating in real time. The
expected outcomes of these cooperative
agreements will include needed changes
to State/Territorial/Tribal policies and
procedures; development of financing
structures that work in the current
environment; and a blueprint for States/
Territories/Tribes and providers that
can be used throughout the State/
Territory/Tribe to widen the use of
effective substance use treatment EBPs.
Additionally, adolescents (ages 12 to
18), transitional age youth (ages 18 to
24), and their families/primary
caregivers who are provided services
through grant funds will inform the
process to improve systems issues.
Estimates for response burden were
calculated based on the methodology
(survey data collection) being used and
are based on previous experience
collecting similar data and results of the
pilot study. For emailed biannual
surveys, burden estimates of 12.0 hours
were used for Project Directors and/or
Program Managers and burden estimates
of 7.2 hours were used for other project
staff members. It is estimated that 13
Project Directors and/or Program
Managers and 26 other staff members
from Cohort 1 will respond to the
emailed survey biannually (i.e., twice
each year) for 3 years at an estimated
total burden of 2,059.2 hours for Cohort
1. It is estimated that 10 Project
Directors and/or Program Managers and
20 other staff members from Cohort 2
will respond to the emailed survey
biannually (i.e., twice each year) for 5
years at an estimated total burden of
2,640 hours for Cohort 2. It is estimated
that 12 Project Directors and/or Program
Managers and 24 other staff members
from Cohort 3 will respond to the
emailed survey biannually (i.e., twice
each year) for 5 years at an estimated
total burden of 3,168 hours for Cohort
2. The burden hours of Cohort 1 (2,059.2
hours), Cohort 2 (2,640 hours) and
Cohort 3 (3,168 hours) combined comes
to a total estimated burden for the
emailed biannual survey of 7,867.2
hours.
