asabaliauskas on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
are in ‘‘Category 2.’’ In the FPL the
Council approved approximately $156.6
million in Category 1 restoration and
planning activities, and prioritized
twelve Category 2 activities for possible
funding in the future, subject to
environmental compliance and further
Council and public review. The Council
included planning activities for Palm
River in Category 1 and implementation
activities for Palm River in Category 2.
The Council reserved approximately
$26.6 million for implementing priority
activities in the future. These reserved
funds may be used to support some, all
or none of the activities included in
Category 2 of the FPL and/or to support
other activities not currently under
consideration by the Council. As
appropriate, the Council intends to
review each activity in Category 2 in
order to determine whether to: (1) Move
the activity to Category 1 and approve
it for funding, (2) remove it from
Category 2 and any further
consideration, or (3) continue to include
it in Category 2. A Council decision to
amend the FPL to move an activity from
Category 2 into Category 1 must be
approved by a Council vote after
consideration of public and Tribal
comments.
II. Environmental Compliance
Prior to approving an activity for
funding in FPL Category 1, the Council
must comply with NEPA and other
applicable Federal environmental laws.
At the time of approval of the FPL, the
Council had not addressed NEPA and
other laws applicable to implementation
of Palm River. The Council did,
however, recognize the potential
ecological value of Palm River, based on
a review conducted during the FPL
process. For this reason, the Council
approved $87,750 in planning funds for
Palm River, a portion of which would be
used to complete any needed
environmental compliance activities. As
noted above, the Council placed the
implementation portion of Palm River
into FPL Category 2, pending the
outcome of this environmental
compliance work and further Council
review. The estimated cost of
implementation of the Florida portion of
Palm River is $497,250. As discussed
earlier, EPA sponsored another
component of Palm River, which was
also placed in FPL Category 2. The
estimated implementation cost of the
EPA component is $271,430. As noted
above, the Council is proposing to unify
both components under one sponsor
(Florida).
Since approval of the FPL, Florida,
EPA, and Council staff have
collaborated with the U.S. Army Corps

of Engineers (USACE) to identify an
existing EA and associated
environmental compliance
documentation that could be used to
support Council approval of
implementation funding for Palm River.
This EA was prepared by USACE in
association with a CWA Section 404
nationwide permit (NWP 27) for aquatic
habitat restoration, establishment and
enhancement activities.
The Council has reviewed this EA and
associated documents, including a July
31, 2014, USACE memorandum for the
record documenting use of NWP 27 for
Palm River and a February 22, 2017,
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service letter to
the Council regarding compliance with
the Endangered Species Act (ESA). In
addition to ESA, the EA and associated
documents address compliance with
other Federal environmental laws,
including the Magnuson-Stevens
Fishery Conservation and Management
Act, the National Historic Preservation
Act, and others. Based on this review,
the Council is proposing to adopt this
EA to support the approval of
implementation funds for Palm River,
provided that the project is
implemented in accordance with the
terms and conditions of the CWA
Section 404 permit. This EA and the
associated documentation can be found
here: https://www.restorethegulf.gov/
funded-priorities-list. (See: Palm River
Restoration Project Phase II, East McKay
Bay—Implementation.)
Palm River Project
If approved for implementation
funding, the Palm River project would
entail construction of three stormwater
ponds, exotic vegetation removal, native
planting, monitoring, and perpetual
maintenance of exotic species and the
culverts/stormwater ponds along the
Palm River at the mouth of McKay Bay.
Specifically, the Palm River project
would improve water quality and
enhance upland and wetland areas on
53 acres of Southwest Florida Water
Management District land. It would
remove exotic vegetation, create an
herbaceous wetland, and build three
stormwater management areas to
provide water quality treatment for 436
acres of residential, commercial and
industrial developed land.
Additional information on this
Project, including metrics of success,
response to science reviews and more is
available in an activity-specific
appendix to the FPL, which can be
found at https://www.restorethegulf.gov.

Reduction Act of 1995, AHRQ’s
collection of information for the AHRQ
Consumer Assessment of Healthcare
Providers and Systems (CAHPS)
Database for Health Plans: OMB Control
number 0935–0165, expiration May 31,
2017. The CAHPS Health Plan Database
consists of data from the AHRQ CAHPS
Health Plan Survey. Health plans in the
U.S. are asked to submit data
voluntarily from the survey to AHRQ
through its contractor, Westat. The
CAHPS Database was developed by
AHRQ in 1998 in response to requests
from health plans, purchasers, the
Centers for Medicare and Medicaid
Services (CMS) to provide comparative
data to support public reporting of
health plan ratings, health plan
accreditation and quality improvement.
This research has the following goals:
(1) To maintain the CAHPS Health
Plan database using data from AHRQ’s
standardized CAHPS Health Plan survey
to provide comparative results to health
care purchasers, consumers, regulators
and policy makers across the country.
(2) To offer several products and
services, including comparative
benchmark results presented through an
Online Reporting System, summary
chartbooks, custom analyses, and data
for research purposes.
(3) To provide data for AHRQ’s
annual National Healthcare Quality and
Disparities Report.
This study is being conducted by
AHRQ through its contractor, Westat,
pursuant to AHRQ’s statutory authority
to conduct and support research on
health care and on systems for the
delivery of such care, including
activities with respect to the quality,
effectiveness, efficiency,
appropriateness and value of health care
services and with respect to quality
measurement and improvement. 42
U.S.C. 299a(a)(1) and (2).
Method of Collection
To achieve the goals of this project the
following data collections will be
implemented:
(1) CAHPS Health Plan Survey that
includes the Adult Medicaid, Child
Medicaid and State Children’s Health
Insurance Program (SCHIP) populations.
The Adult data collection uses the
Adult survey and the Child and SCHIP
collections include a child survey with
chronic conditions and a child survey
without chronic condition items. The
CAHPS Health Plan surveys ask
enrollees about their recent experiences
with health plans and their services.
This standardized survey was designed
to support consumers in assessing the
performance of health plans and
choosing the plans that best meet their
needs. Health plans can also use the
survey results to identify their strengths
and weaknesses and target areas for
improvement. Participants have access
to resources regarding the data
submission process, a user guide and a
technical assistance help line.
(2) Medicare health plan data are
received from CMS.
Survey data from the CAHPS Health
Plan Database is used to produce four
types of products: (1) An annual
chartbook available to the public on the
CAHPS Database Web site (https://
www.cahpsdatabase.ahrq.gov/
CAHPSIDB/Public/Chartbook.aspx); (2)
individual participant comparative
reports that are confidential and
customized for each participating
organization (e.g., health plan, Medicaid
agency) that submits their data; (3) a
research database available to
researchers wanting to conduct
additional analyses; and (4) data tables
provided to AHRQ for inclusion in the
National Healthcare Quality and
Disparities Report.
Estimated Annual Respondent Burden
Exhibit 1 shows the estimated burden
hours for the respondent to participate
in the database. The burden hours
pertain only to the collection of
Medicaid data from State Medicaid
agencies and individual Medicaid
health plans because those are the only
entities that submit data through the
data submission process (other data are
obtained from CMS as noted earlier in
Section 2). The 85 Point of Contact
(POC)s in Exhibit 1 are a combination of
an estimated 75 State Medicaid agencies
and individual health plans, and 10
vendor organizations.
Each State Medicaid agency, health
plan or vendor will register online for
submission. The online Registration
form will require about 5 minutes to
complete. Each submitter will also
complete a Health Plan information
form of information about each Health
Plan such as the name of the plan, the
product type (e.g., HMO, PPO), the
population surveyed (e.g., adult
Medicaid or child Medicaid). Each year,
the prior year’s plan data are preloaded
in the plan table to lessen burden on the
Sponsor. The Sponsor is responsible for
updating the plan table to reflect the
current year’s plan information. The
online Health Plan Information form
takes on average 30 minutes to complete
per health plan with each POC
completing the form for 4 plans on
average. The data use agreement will be
completed by the 75 participating State
Medicaid agencies or individual health
plans. Vendors do not sign or submit
DUAs. The DUA requires about 3
minutes to sign and return by fax or
mail. Each submitter will provide a
copy of their questionnaire and the
survey data file in the required file
format. Survey data files must conform
to the data file layout specifications
provide by the CAHPS Database. Since
the unit of analysis is at the health plan
level, submitters will upload one data
file per health plan. Once a data file is
uploaded the file will be checked
automatically to ensure it conforms to
the specifications and a data file status
report will be produced and made
available to the submitter. Submitters
will review each report and will be
expected to fix any errors in their data
file and resubmit if necessary. It will
take about 1 hour to submit the data for
each plan, and each POC will submit
data for 4 plans on average. The total
burden is estimated to be 501 hours
annually.
