* The Standards Council of Canada
(SCC) voted to end its Laboratory
Accreditation Program for Substance

Laboratories certified through that
program were accredited to conduct
forensic urine drug testing as required
by U.S. Department of Transportation
(DOT) regulations. As of that date, the
certification of those accredited
Canadian laboratories will continue
under DOT authority. The responsibility
for conducting quarterly performance
testing plus periodic on-site inspections
of those LAPSA-accredited laboratories
was transferred to the U.S. HHS, with
the HHS’ NLCP contractor continuing to
have an active role in the performance
testing and laboratory inspection
processes. Other Canadian laboratories
wishing to be considered for the NLCP
may apply directly to the NLCP
contractor just as U.S. laboratories do.
Upon finding a Canadian laboratory to
be qualified, HHS will recommend that
DOT certify the laboratory (61 FR 37015,
July 16, 1996) as meeting the minimum
standards of the Mandatory Guidelines
published in the Federal Register on
January 23, 2017 (82 FR 7920). After
receiving DOT certification, the
laboratory will be included in the
monthly list of HHS-certified
laboratories and participate in the NLCP
certification maintenance program.

Substance Abuse and Mental Health
Services Administration
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
Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.
chapter 35). To request a copy of these
documents, call the SAMHSA Reports
Clearance Officer on (240) 276–0361.
Proposed Project: 988 Cooperative
Agreements Monitoring Program (OMB
No. 0930–0290)—New ICR
The Substance Abuse and Mental
Health Services Administration
(SAMHSA) is seeking Office of
Management and Budget (OMB)
Emergency approval for new
information collection activities for
monitoring all of SAMHSA’s 988
Cooperative Agreements. The collection
of this information is critical to
successfully oversee operational
response and quality of service through
the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline to
ensure connections to care for
individuals in suicidal crisis or
emotional distress contacting in for 988
phone, chat, and text support for
connecting local, state/territory and
national outcomes and monitoring
contractual obligations for current and
future 988 grant programs. Much of this
information is already embedded in the
current 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline
network administrator grants, the 988
state and territory grant program, or the
988 Tribal Response grant program.
Congress designated 988 in 2020 and
the Lifeline transitioned to the 3-digit
number in July 2022. As a part of the
federal government’s commitment to
addressing the mental health crisis in
America, unprecedented federal
resources have been invested to scale up
crisis centers in support of 988. In
section 1103(a)(2)(B) of the
Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023,
Congress called for enhanced program
evaluation, including performance
measures to assess program response
and improve readiness and performance
of the service, including review of each
contact to ensure timely connection of
service and quality provision in line
with evidence-based care. To help meet
the standards and requirements set forth
in statute, ongoing communication of
key outcomes within this OMB request
PO 00000
Frm 00060
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

must be received and reviewed to
ensure connection and quality of care
through 988.
The information being collected will
be used by SAMHSA to ensure
individuals in suicidal crisis can contact
988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline and are
connected to crisis centers provided
evidence-based care and able to receive
critical resource referral and linkage,
including opportunities for mobile crisis
support, crisis receiving and stabilizing
facilities, peer respite centers and
withdrawal management services. The
four programs to be monitored and
evaluated include the Tribal
Cooperative Agreements, State and
Territory Cooperative Agreements, 988
Crises Center Follow-up Cooperative
Agreements, and the 988 Lifeline
Administrator.
The purpose of the Tribal Cooperative
Agreements is to provide resources to
improve response to 988 contacts
(including calls, chats, and texts)
originating in Tribal communities and/
or activated by American Indians/
Alaska Natives. The information
collection instruments include Tribal
Government: Semi Annual Progress
Report, Tribal Government: Monthly
Meeting Agenda, Tribal Government:
Quality Improvement Plan.
The purpose of the State and Territory
Cooperative Agreements is to improve
state and territory response to 988
contacts (including calls, chats, and
texts) originating in the state/territory.
The information collection instruments
include State/Territory: Monthly Key
Metrics, State/Territory: Quarterly
Report Template, State/Territory:
Programmatic QI Plan (Annual
Collection), State/Territory: Monthly
Meeting Call Agenda, State/Territory:
Chat and Text Report (Annual
Collection), State/Territory:
Communications Plan (Annual
Collection), State/Territory:
Sustainability Plan (Annual Collection),
State/Territory: Mobile Crisis and 988–
911 reports (Annual Collection).
The purpose of the 988 Crisis Center
Follow Up Cooperative Agreements is to
provide a crisis center response that
ensures the systematic follow-up of
suicidal persons who contact a 988
Suicide and Crisis Lifeline (988 Lifeline)
Crisis Center; provides enhanced
coordination of crisis stabilization,
crisis respite, mobile crisis outreach
(MCO) response services and other
services on the crisis continuum of care;
reduces unnecessary police engagement
and; improves connections for high-risk
populations. The information collection
instruments include Crisis Center Data
Reporting Elements and Crisis Center
Monthly Agenda Template.

in the United States to a network of
certified crisis centers that link to local
