SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Inspection of Public Comments: All
comments received before the close of
the comment period are available for
viewing by the public, including any
personally identifiable or confidential
business information that is included in
a comment.
Background: The Maine Indian
Claims Settlement Act of 1980 (Pub. L.
96–420; H. Rept. 96–1353) includes the
intent of Congress to fund and provide
PRC to the Passamaquoddy Tribe. The
Passamaquoddy Tribe has two
reservations: Indian Township and
Pleasant Point. The PRC SDA for the
Indian Township reservation is
Aroostook County, ME, and Washington
County, ME. The PRC SDA for the
Pleasant Point reservation is
Washington County, ME, south of State
Route 9, and Aroostook County, ME.
The IHS currently provides services
under regulations codified at 42 CFR
part 136, subparts A through C. Subpart
C defines a Purchased/Referred Care
(PRC) Service Delivery Area (SDA),
formerly referred to as a Contract Health
Service Delivery Area, as the geographic
area within which PRC will be made
available by the IHS to members of an
identified Indian community who reside
in the area. Residence in a PRC SDA by
a person who is within the scope of the
Indian health program, as set forth in 42
CFR 136.12, creates no legal entitlement
to PRC but only potential eligibility for
services. Services needed but not
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:34 Mar 07, 2017
Jkt 241001
available at an IHS/Tribal facility are
provided under the PRC program
depending on the availability of funds,
the person’s relative medical priority,
and the actual availability and
accessibility of alternate resources in
accordance with the regulations.
As applicable to the Tribes, these
regulations provide that, unless
otherwise designated, a PRC SDA shall
consist of a county which includes all
or part of a reservation and any county
or counties which have a common
boundary with the reservation. 42 CFR
136.22(a)(6). The regulations also
provide that after consultation with the
Tribal governing body or bodies on
those reservations included within the
PRC SDA, the Secretary may from time
to time, re-designate areas within the
United States for inclusion in or
exclusion from a PRC SDA. The
regulations require that certain criteria
must be considered before any redesignation is made. The criteria are as
follows:
(1) The number of Indians residing in
the area proposed to be so included or
excluded;
(2) Whether the Tribal governing body
has determined that Indians residing in
the area near the reservation are socially
and economically affiliated with the
Tribe;
(3) The geographic proximity to the
reservation of the area whose inclusion
or exclusion is being considered; and
(4) The level of funding which would
be available for the provision of PRC. 42
CFR 136.22(b).
Additionally, the regulations require
that any re-designation of a PRC SDA
must be made in accordance with the
Administrative Procedures Act (5 U.S.C.
553). See 42 CFR 136.22(c). In
compliance with this requirement, we
are publishing this proposal and
requesting public comments.
The Passamaquoddy Tribe is a
federally recognized tribe with two
separate reservations, Indian Township
and Pleasant Point, located
approximately 50 miles apart. Each
respective reservation elects its own
governing body and each reservation
has a separate PRC SDA. The Indian
Township reservation of the
Passamaquoddy Tribe has a PRC SDA
consisting of Aroostook and Washington
Counties in the State of Maine. The PRC
SDA for the Passamaquoddy Tribe’s
reservation at Pleasant Point is
Washington County, Maine, south of
State Route 9, and Aroostook County,
PO 00000
Frm 00045
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

Maine. IHS adopted a PRC SDA for each
of the Passamaquoddy Tribe’s
reservations for the purposes of
administering benefits under the IHS
PRC program. Thus, members of the
Tribe who reside outside of Aroostook
and Washington Counties do not reside
within the PRC SDA of the
Passamaquoddy Tribe and they are
currently not eligible for PRC services
from the Tribe.
The Passamaquoddy Tribe has a
significant number of members who are
not residents of Aroostook and
Washington Counties. According to
Tribal estimates, 257 enrolled
Passamaquoddy members reside in
Hancock County in the State of Maine
and remain actively involved with the
Tribe, but they are not currently eligible
for PRC care. The Tribe provides direct
services to its members by operating a
clinic in Washington County.
Under 42 CFR 136.23, those otherwise
eligible Indians who do not reside on a
reservation but reside within a PRC
service delivery area must be either
members of the Tribe or maintain close
economic and social ties with the Tribe.
In this case, in applying the
aforementioned PRC service delivery
area re-designation criteria required by
operative regulations (43 FR 34654), the
following findings are made:
1. By expanding, the Tribe estimates
the current eligible population will be
increased by 257.
2. The Tribe has determined that
these 257 individuals are socially and
economically affiliated with the Tribe.
3. The expanded area, Hancock
County, ME, maintains a common
boundary with Washington County, ME,
the county in which the Tribe’s Indian
Township reservation is located.
4. The Tribe will use its existing
Federal allocation for PRC funds to
provide services to the expanded
population. No additional financial
resources will be allocated by IHS to the
Tribe to provide services to Tribal
members residing in Hancock County.
Accordingly, the purpose of this
Federal Register notice is to notify the
public of the proposal to expand the
PRC service delivery area of the
Passamaquoddy Tribe’s Indian
Township reservation to include
Hancock County in the State of Maine.
The proposed notice will expand their
current service delivery area to include
Hancock County in the State of Maine.

DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES

Notice To Propose the Re-Designation of the Service Delivery Area
for the Passamaquoddy Tribe at Indian Township
AGENCY: Indian Health Service, HHS.

(IHS) proposes to expand the geographic boundaries of the Purchased/
Referred Care (PRC) Service Delivery Area (SDA) for the Passamaquoddy
Tribe's reservation at Indian Township (Passamaquoddy at Indian
Township or Tribe) in Maine. This notice does not propose to change or
expand the PRC SDA for the Tribe's Pleasant Point reservation. This
notice only relates to the expansion of the Tribe's PRC SDA for the
Indian Township reservation.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Inspection of Public Comments: All comments received before the
close of the comment period are available for viewing by the public,
including any personally identifiable or confidential business
information that is included in a comment.
Background: The Maine Indian Claims Settlement Act of 1980 (Pub. L.
96-420; H. Rept. 96-1353) includes the intent of Congress to fund and
provide PRC to the Passamaquoddy Tribe. The Passamaquoddy Tribe has two
reservations: Indian Township and Pleasant Point. The PRC SDA for the
Indian Township reservation is Aroostook County, ME, and Washington
County, ME. The PRC SDA for the Pleasant Point reservation is
Washington County, ME, south of State Route 9, and Aroostook County,
ME.
The IHS currently provides services under regulations codified at
42 CFR part 136, subparts A through C. Subpart C defines a Purchased/
Referred Care (PRC) Service Delivery Area (SDA), formerly referred to
as a Contract Health Service Delivery Area, as the geographic area
within which PRC will be made available by the IHS to members of an
identified Indian community who reside in the area. Residence in a PRC
SDA by a person who is within the scope of the Indian health program,
as set forth in 42 CFR 136.12, creates no legal entitlement to PRC but
only potential eligibility for services. Services needed but not
available at an IHS/Tribal facility are provided under the PRC program
depending on the availability of funds, the person's relative medical
priority, and the actual availability and accessibility of alternate
resources in accordance with the regulations.
As applicable to the Tribes, these regulations provide that, unless
otherwise designated, a PRC SDA shall consist of a county which
includes all or part of a reservation and any county or counties which
have a common boundary with the reservation. 42 CFR 136.22(a)(6). The
regulations also provide that after consultation with the Tribal
governing body or bodies on those reservations included within the PRC
SDA, the Secretary may from time to time, re-designate areas within the
United States for inclusion in or exclusion from a PRC SDA. The
regulations require that certain criteria must be considered before any
re-designation is made. The criteria are as follows:
(1) The number of Indians residing in the area proposed to be so
included or excluded;
(2) Whether the Tribal governing body has determined that Indians
residing in the area near the reservation are socially and economically
affiliated with the Tribe;
(3) The geographic proximity to the reservation of the area whose
inclusion or exclusion is being considered; and
(4) The level of funding which would be available for the provision
of PRC. 42 CFR 136.22(b).
Additionally, the regulations require that any re-designation of a
PRC SDA must be made in accordance with the Administrative Procedures
Act (5 U.S.C. 553). See 42 CFR 136.22(c). In compliance with this
requirement, we are publishing this proposal and requesting public
comments.
The Passamaquoddy Tribe is a federally recognized tribe with two
separate reservations, Indian Township and Pleasant Point, located
approximately 50 miles apart. Each respective reservation elects its
own governing body and each reservation has a separate PRC SDA. The
Indian Township reservation of the Passamaquoddy Tribe has a PRC SDA
consisting of Aroostook and Washington Counties in the State of Maine.
The PRC SDA for the Passamaquoddy Tribe's reservation at Pleasant Point
is Washington County, Maine, south of State Route 9, and Aroostook
County, Maine. IHS adopted a PRC SDA for each of the Passamaquoddy
Tribe's reservations for the purposes of administering benefits under
the IHS PRC program. Thus, members of the Tribe who reside outside of
Aroostook and Washington Counties do not reside within the PRC SDA of
the Passamaquoddy Tribe and they are currently not eligible for PRC
services from the Tribe.
The Passamaquoddy Tribe has a significant number of members who are
not residents of Aroostook and Washington Counties. According to Tribal
estimates, 257 enrolled Passamaquoddy members reside in Hancock County
in the State of Maine and remain actively involved with the Tribe, but
they are not currently eligible for PRC care. The Tribe provides direct
services to its members by operating a clinic in Washington County.
Under 42 CFR 136.23, those otherwise eligible Indians who do not
reside on a reservation but reside within a PRC service delivery area
must be either members of the Tribe or maintain close economic and
social ties with the Tribe. In this case, in applying the
aforementioned PRC service delivery area re-designation criteria
required by operative regulations (43 FR 34654), the following findings
are made:
1. By expanding, the Tribe estimates the current eligible
population will be increased by 257.
2. The Tribe has determined that these 257 individuals are socially
and economically affiliated with the Tribe.
3. The expanded area, Hancock County, ME, maintains a common
boundary with Washington County, ME, the county in which the Tribe's
Indian Township reservation is located.
4. The Tribe will use its existing Federal allocation for PRC funds
to provide services to the expanded population. No additional financial
resources will be allocated by IHS to the Tribe to provide services to
Tribal members residing in Hancock County.
Accordingly, the purpose of this Federal Register notice is to
notify the public of the proposal to expand the PRC service delivery
area of the Passamaquoddy Tribe's Indian Township reservation to
include Hancock County in the State of Maine. The proposed notice will
expand their current service delivery area to include Hancock County in
the State of Maine.
