For this project, we will use data from
U.S. state birth defect surveillance
systems to identify a population-based
sample of individuals 18 to 45 years of
age born with CHD. We will then use an
automated process of searching state
databases and online search engines, as
well as have individuals perform more
time-intensive online searches to find
current addresses for those eligible
participants and mail surveys to them
inquiring about their barriers to health
care, quality of life, social and
educational outcomes, and transition of
care from childhood to adulthood. The
information collected from this
population-based survey will be used to
inform current knowledge, allocate
resources, develop services, and,
ultimately, improve long-term health of
adults born with CHD.
We estimate sending a survey to 4,183
individuals with CHD over a 2-year
period, and receiving completed surveys
from 2,928 individuals (70%). The
survey takes approximately 20 minutes
to complete. The contact information
form takes approximately two minutes
to complete. There are no costs to
participants other than their time. The
total estimated annual burden hours are
711.

Title: Administration for Children &

OMB No.: Revision of 0970–0461.
Description: The recent climatic
events of Hurricane Harvey and
Hurricane Irma have created
catastrophic disasters in Texas,
Louisiana, Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin
Islands, and Florida. President Trump
has declared these climatic events as
major disaster declarations. FEMA is
providing assistances to these states and
territories under declaration numbers
DR–4332 & DR–4337.
There are looming public health
issues related to flooding, and especially
among at risk populations. Risks
include contracting water-borne and
vector-borne diseases, substance abuse,
and mental health concerns, including
PTSD, depression, anxiety, and
homelessness.
Therefore, it is essential for the
mission of ACF to activate the
Immediate Disaster Case Management
(IDCM) Electronic Case Management
Record System (ECMRS). The ECMRS
will be used to collect and manage
information from the disaster affected
clients. This information includes
demographics, disaster caused unmet
needs, and referrals provided. The
information collected is critical to
develop a recovery plan for each
survivor.
Respondents: Clients.

ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
The Health Center Program
Compliance Manual (Compliance
Manual) has been developed as a
comprehensive, significantly
streamlined, and web-based guidance
document to assist health centers in
understanding and demonstrating
compliance with Health Center Program
requirements. As such, this guidance
document will reduce burden for
current and prospective health centers
and look-alikes and further strengthen
HRSA’s oversight of the Health Center
and Health Center Federal Tort Claims
Act (FTCA) Programs. It also responds
to recommendations contained within
the Government Accountability Office
report, Health Center Program:
Improved Oversight Needed to Ensure
Grantee Compliance with Requirements,
GAO–12–546, for increased
transparency, clarity, and consistency in
Health Center Program oversight.
The Bureau of Primary Health Care
(BPHC) released a draft Compliance
Manual on August 23, 2016, for a 90-day
public comment period. Individuals and
groups submitted over 700 comments
regarding the draft Compliance Manual.
After thorough review and
consideration of all comments received,
HRSA made a substantial number of
updates to the Compliance Manual to
incorporate suggestions and requests for
further clarification. HRSA has also
posted a summary of comments for each
corresponding section and chapter of
the Compliance Manual and HRSA’s
responses to these comments. HRSA’s
‘‘Summary of Comments and HRSA
Responses on the Draft Health Center
Program Compliance Manual’’ is
available online at https://
bphc.hrsa.gov/programrequirements/
pdf/healthcentercompliancemanualcomments.pdf. The Compliance
Manual, which was effective August 28,
2017, is available online at https://

Notice of Availability of Final Policy
Document
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Executive Orders 12866, 13563 and
13771
Executive Orders 12866 and 13563
direct agencies to assess all costs and
benefits of available regulatory
alternatives and, if regulation is
necessary, to select regulatory
approaches that maximize net benefits
(including potential economic,
environmental, public health and safety
effects, distributive impacts, and
equity). Executive Order 13563 is
supplemental to and reaffirms the
principles, structures, and definitions
governing regulatory review as
established in Executive Order 12866,
emphasizing the importance of
quantifying both costs and benefits, of
reducing costs, of harmonizing rules,
and of promoting flexibility. Section 3(f)
of Executive Order 12866 defines a
‘‘significant regulatory action’’ as an
action that is likely to result in a rule:
(1) Having an annual effect on the
economy of $100 million or more in any
1 year, or adversely and materially
affecting a sector of the economy,
productivity, competition, jobs, the
environment, public health or safety, or
State, local, or Tribal governments or
communities (also referred to as
‘‘economically significant’’); (2) creating
a serious inconsistency or otherwise
interfering with an action taken or
planned by another agency; (3)
materially altering the budgetary
impacts of entitlement grants, user fees,
or loan programs or the rights and
obligations of recipients thereof; or (4)
raising novel legal or policy issues
arising out of legal mandates, the
President’s priorities, or the principles
set forth in the Executive Order. A
regulatory impact analysis (RIA) must
be prepared for major rules with
economically significant effects ($100
million or more in any 1 year), and a
‘‘significant’’ regulatory action is subject
to review by the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB).

Executive Order 13771, entitled
Reducing Regulation and Controlling
Regulatory Costs, was issued on January
30, 2017. Section 2(a) of Executive
Order 13771 requires an agency, unless
prohibited by law, to identify at least
two existing regulations to be repealed
when the agency publicly proposes for
notice and comment or otherwise
promulgates a new regulation. In
furtherance of this requirement, section
2(c) of Executive Order 13771 requires
that the new incremental costs
associated with new regulations shall, to
the extent permitted by law, be offset by
the elimination of existing costs
associated with at least two prior
regulations. OMB’s interim guidance
issued on February 2, 2017, explains
that for fiscal year 2017 the above
requirements only apply to each new
‘‘significant regulatory action that
imposes costs.’’ It has been determined
that the Compliance Manual is not a
‘‘significant regulatory action that
imposes costs’’ and thus does not trigger
the above requirements of Executive
Order 12866 or of Executive Order
13771.
Background
HRSA provides grants to eligible
applicants under section 330(e), (g), (h),
and/or (i) of the Public Health Service
(PHS) Act, as amended (42 U.S.C. 254b),
to support the delivery of preventive
and primary care services to medically
underserved communities and
vulnerable populations. Nearly 1,400
Health Center Program-funded health
centers operate approximately 10,400
service delivery sites that provide care
to nearly 26 million patients in every
U.S. state, the District of Columbia,
Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and
the Pacific Basin. Note that for the
purposes of the Compliance Manual, the
term ‘‘health center’’ refers to entities
that receive a federal award under
section 330 of the PHS Act, as amended,
grant subrecipients, and organizations
designated as look-alikes, unless
otherwise stated within the Compliance
Manual. Look-alikes, as described in
Sections 1861(aa)(4)(B) and 1905(l)(2)(B)
of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C.
1395x(aa)(4)(B) and 42 U.S.C.
1396d(l)(2)(B)(iii)), do not receive a
Health Center Program award but must
meet the Health Center Program
statutory and regulatory requirements.
Organizations designated as look-alikes
are eligible for payment as a Federally
Qualified Health Center under
Medicare, Medicaid, and the State
Children’s Health Insurance Program
(CHIP), as well as participation in the
340B Drug Pricing Program and the
National Health Service Corps Program.
