The advantages of automating the Annual On-site Review Manual and process will increase productivity, increase communication on status of on-site reviews, increase efficient use of the Annual On-site Review Manual, and improve implementation of corrective action plans. In FY 2022, the OUIHP continues to develop the electronic Annual Onsite Review Manual and process including seeking OMB approval. The standardization of the Annual On-site Review Manual and process was in line with the 2017–2021 OUIHP strategic plan to improve the consistency, usefulness, and efficiency of annual on-site reviews for IHS Area Offices and UIOs. The IHCIA at 25 U.S.C. 1655, states that the IHS will annually review and evaluate each UIO funded under the law. The IHCIA also requires IHS to develop procedures for evaluating compliance with awards made under the statute. Section 1655 states, in part: (a) Contract Compliance and Performance The Secretary, through the Service, shall develop procedures to evaluate compliance with grant requirements under this subchapter and compliance with, and performance of contracts entered into by [UIOs] under this subchapter. Such procedures shall include provisions for carrying out the requirements of this section. (b) Annual On-Site Evaluation The Secretary, through the Service, shall conduct an annual on-site evaluation of each [UIO] which has entered into a contract or received a grant under Section 1653 of this title for purposes of determining the compliance of such organization with, and evaluating the performance of such organization under, such contract or the terms of such grant. To meet statutory compliance, the IHS will conduct annual on-site reviews of UIOs funded under the IHCIA to ensure grant and contract compliance and the delivery of safe and high-quality health care.

    The ACPARS identified navigation safety corridors along the 
Atlantic Coast based on the predominant two-way vessel traffic and 
customary routes identified with AIS data for offshore deep draft and 
coastal seagoing tug/tow vessels. The study recommended developing 
these corridors into official shipping safety fairways or other 
appropriate vessel routing measures.
    Based on the recommendations provided in the ACPARS, the Coast 
Guard published an Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPRM) in the 
Federal Register (85 FR 37034) on June 19, 2020. This ANPRM, which is

possible establishment of fairways along the Atlantic Coast of the 
United States identified in the ACPARS.

Consolidated Port Approaches and International Entry and Departure 
Transit Areas Port Access Route Studies

    Recognizing the ACPARS only analyzed coastal, longshore, and 
predominantly north/south vessel transit routes along the Atlantic 
Coast, the Coast Guard announced new studies focused on port approaches 
and international entry and departure areas along the Atlantic Coast 
supplemental to the ACPARS, on March 15, 2019. This report summarizes 
the findings of four regional port access route studies: the Northern 
New York Bight; Seacoast of New Jersey Including Offshore Approaches to 
the Delaware Bay, Delaware; Approaches to the Chesapeake Bay, Virginia; 
and the Seacoast of North Carolina. The CPAPARS has been completed and 
has been uploaded to the docket and at https://www.navcen.uscg.gov/port-access-route-study-reports for public review.
