On April
26, 2016, the Secretary approved for the
Physical Activity Guidelines Advisory
Committee and the Secretary’s Advisory
Committee on National Health
Promotion and Disease Prevention
Objectives to be re-established. Both
committees have been re-established to
accomplish single, time-limited tasks.
The Physical Activity Guidelines
Advisory Committee was first
established in February 2007 to assist
the Department in development of the
first edition of the Physical Activity
Guidelines for Americans (PAG). The
Department plans to develop a second
edition of the PAG, and it was
recommended that the same process be
used to develop this document. The
new committee will examine the current
edition of the PAG, take into
consideration new scientific evidence
and current resource documents, and
then develop a scientific advisory report
that will be submitted to the Secretary.
The title for the new committee is the
2018 Physical Activity Guidelines
Advisory Committee (2018 PAGAC; the
Committee).
Objectives and Scope of Activities.
The 2018 PAGAC will provide
independent advice and
recommendations based on current
scientific evidence for use by the federal
government in the development of the
second edition of the PAG. The PAG
provides a foundation for federal
recommendations and education for
physical activity programs for
Americans, including those at risk for
chronic disease.

Description of Duties. The work of the
2018 PAGAC is solely advisory in
nature. The Committee will be
established for the single, time-limited
task of reviewing the current edition of
the PAG and conducting an evidencebased systematic literature review of
physical activity and health for use in
developing physical activity
recommendations to promote health and
reduce chronic disease risk.
Membership and Designation. The
2018 PAGAC will be composed of 11 to
17 members. One or more members will
be selected to serve as the Chair, Vice
Chair, and/or Co-Chairs. The Committee
will consist of respected published
experts in designated fields and specific
specialty areas. Individuals appointed to
serve on the Committee will have
demonstrated expert knowledge of
current science in the field of human
physical activity and health promotion
or the prevention of chronic disease.
Members will be appointed to the
Committee by the Secretary of HHS and
invited to serve for the duration of the
Committee. All appointed members of
the Committee will be classified as
special government employees (SGEs).
Administrative Management and
Support. The 2018 PAGAC will provide
advice to the Secretary of Health and
Human Services, through the Assistant
Secretary for Health (ASH). The
Committee will provide a report to the
Secretary, outlining their
recommendations and rationale for the
second edition of the PAG.
Management and support services for
the Committee will be provided within
the Office of the Assistant Secretary for
Health (OASH) by the Office of Disease
Prevention and Health Promotion
(ODPHP). The ODPHP is a program staff
office within OASH; OASH is a staff
division in the HHS Office of the
Secretary.
ODPHP will collaborate with the
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC), the National
Institutes of Health (NIH), and the
OASH program staff office for the
President’s Council on Fitness, Sports,
and Nutrition (PCFSN). The ASH will
appoint seven Co-Executive Secretaries
to support the Committee, two each
from the ODPHP, CDC, and NIH, and
one from the OASH staff office for the
PCFSN. The two ODPHP Co-Executive
Secretaries will be appointed to serve as
the DFO and Alternate DFO for the
Committee.

health objectives. To assist with this
task for the development of Healthy
People 2020, the Department utilized a
scientific advisory committee, the
Secretary’s Advisory Committee on
National Health Promotion and Disease
Prevention Objectives for 2020. It was
recommended that the same process be
used to assist with development of
Healthy People 2030 because the
Department must create a more focused
set of ten-year national disease
prevention and health promotion
objectives that reflect the Nation’s needs
and carries stakeholder support. The

health of all Americans. Healthy People
offers a strategic agenda to align health
promotion and disease prevention
activities in communities around the
country. The Healthy People initiative is
grounded in the principle that setting
national objective and monitoring
progress can motivate action.
The Committee will provide
independent advice based on current
scientific evidence for use by the
Secretary of HHS or a designated
representative in the development of
Healthy People 2030. The Committee
will advise the Secretary on the
Department’s approach for Healthy
People 2030. Framed around health
determinants and risk factors, this
approach will generate a focused set of
objective that address high-impact
public health challenges.
Description of Duties. The work of the
Committee is solely advisory in nature.
The Committee will perform the single,
time-limited task of providing advice
regarding creating Healthy People 2030.
The Committee’s duties include
providing advice about the Healthy

statement, framework, and
organizational structure.
Membership and Designation. The
Committee will consist of no more than
13 members. One or more members will

To comply with the provisions of
FACA, the charters for the 2018
Physical Activity Guidelines Advisory
Committee and the Secretary’s Advisory
Committee on National Health
Promotion and Disease Prevention
Objectives for 2030 will be filed with
the appropriate Congressional
committees and the Library of Congress
fifteen calendar days after notice of this
action being taken has been published
in the Federal Register. After the
charters have been filed, copies of these
documents can be obtained from the
ODPHP Web site under the appropriate
program headings. Copies of the
charters for the two designated
committees also can be obtained by
accessing the FACA database that is
maintained by the Committee

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

Project: Primary and Behavioral Health
Care Integration Evaluation—NEW
The Substance Abuse and Mental
Health Services Administration’s
(SAMHSA) Center for Behavioral Health
Statistics and Quality (CBHSQ) is
requesting approval from the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for new
data collection activities associated with
their Primary and Behavioral Health
Care Integration (PBHCI) program.
This information collection is needed
to provide SAMHSA with objective
information to document the reach and
impact of the PBHCI program. The
information will be used to monitor
quality assurance and quality
performance outcomes for organizations
funded by this grant program. The
information will also be used to assess
the impact of services on behavioral
health and physical health services for
individuals served by this program. .
Collection of the information
included in this request is authorized by
Section 505 of the Public Health Service
Act (42 U.S.C. 290aa–4)—Data
Collection.
SAMHSA launched the PBHCI
program in FY 2009 with the
understanding that adults with serious
mental illness (SMI) experience
heightened rates of morbidity and
mortality, in large part due to elevated
incidence and prevalence of risk factors
such as obesity, diabetes, hypertension,
and dyslipidemia. These risk factors are
influenced by a variety of factors,
including inadequate physical activity
and poor nutrition; smoking; side effects
from atypical antipsychotic
medications; and lack of access to
health care services. Many of these
health conditions are preventable
through routine health promotion
activities, primary care screening,
monitoring, treatment and care
management/coordination strategies
and/or other outreach programs.
