National Cancer Institute; Amended Notice of Meeting, 43416-43417 [2024-10873]

Download as PDF khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES 43416 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 97 / Friday, May 17, 2024 / Notices 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. Additionally, the regulations require that any re-designation of a PRCDA must be made in accordance with the procedures of the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553). 42 CFR 136.22(c). In compliance with this requirement, the IHS is publishing this Notice and requesting public comments. The Pokagon Band of Potawatomi Indians of Michigan and Indiana (Pokagon Band, or Tribe) is located in Dowagiac, Michigan, and operates their PRC program as a Tribal Health Program. The IHS established the Pokagon Band’s current PRCDA consistent with the language of the Act of September 21, 1994, restoring Federal recognition to the Pokagon Band. Public Law 103–323 (108 Stat. 2152); see also 72 FR 34262 (June 21, 2007). Although the IHS has historically established PRCDAs in accordance with Congressional intent, the IHS has also preserved regulatory flexibility to redesignate areas as appropriate for inclusion in or exclusion from a PRCDA under PRC regulations. See 81 FR 20388 (April 7, 2016). The current PRCDA for the Pokagon Band of Potawatomi Indians of Michigan and Indiana currently consists of 10 counties in Southwestern Michigan and Northwestern Indiana. See 72 FR 34262 (June 21, 2007). These counties are Allegan, Berrien, Cass, and Van Buren Counties in Michigan; and Elkhart, Kosciusko, La Porte, Marshall, St. Joseph, and Starke Counties in Indiana. Pokagon Band of Potawatomi Indians of Michigan and Indiana citizens residing outside of the PRCDA are eligible for direct care services; however, they are not eligible for Purchased/Referred Care (PRC) services. The Pokagon Band estimates that approximately 537 Pokagon citizens reside in Kalamazoo, Kent, and Ottawa Counties in Michigan and would become PRC eligible through the proposed re-designation and expansion of the Tribe’s PRCDA. The Pokagon Band states that these citizens, ‘‘by virtue of their citizenship with the Pokagon Band are socially and VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:20 May 16, 2024 Jkt 262001 economically affiliated with the Pokagon Band and belong to the Pokagon Band community served by the [Health] Center . . .’’ The Tribe also considers certain other PRC-eligible individuals to be socially and economically affiliated with the Pokagon Band and to belong to the Pokagon Band community, including non-Indian women pregnant with a Pokagon Band citizen’s child, and children of Pokagon Band citizens as detailed in the Tribe’s PRCDA redesignation request. The Pokagon Band would like to recognize these persons as eligible for PRC services. The IHS confirmed that there are Pokagon Band citizens residing in each of the proposed expansion counties. Accordingly, the IHS proposes to expand the PRCDA of the Pokagon Band of Potawatomi Indians of Michigan and Indiana to include the Michigan counties of Kalamazoo, Kent, and Ottawa. If the Pokagon Band’s PRCDA redesignation and expansion is finalized as proposed, the Tribe’s expanded PRCDA would overlap the existing PRCDAs of three other Tribes: the Nottawaseppi Band of Huron Potawatomi (Kalamazoo, Kent, and Ottawa Counties); the Match-E-Be-NashShe-Wish Band of Pottawatomi Indians of Michigan (Kalamazoo, Kent, and Ottawa Counties); and Little River Band of Ottawa Indians (Kent and Ottawa Counties). The IHS has consulted with each of the overlapping Tribes regarding the proposed expansion of the Pokagon Band’s PRCDA, and none of the overlapping Tribes has expressed a current concern regarding the proposed re-designation and expansion. Under 42 CFR 136.23, those otherwise eligible Indians who do not reside on a reservation, but reside within a PRCDA, must be either members of the Tribe or other IHS beneficiaries who maintain close economic and social ties with the Tribe. In this case, applying the aforementioned PRCDA re-designation criteria required by operative regulations codified at 42 CFR part 136, subpart C, the following findings are made: 1. By expanding the PRCDA to include Kalamazoo, Kent, and Ottawa Counties in Michigan, the Pokagon Band of Potawatomi Indians of Michigan and Indiana’s PRC eligible population will increase by an estimated 537 Tribal citizens. 2. The IHS finds that the Tribal citizens and other PRC-eligible individuals within the expanded PRCDA are socially and economically affiliated with the Pokagon Band based on a Tribal resolution in which the Pokagon Band Tribal Council identified PO 00000 Frm 00047 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 its intent to expand the PRCDA to include Kalamazoo, Kent, and Ottawa Counties in Michigan, and stated that the Tribal citizens and certain other individuals residing in such areas are socially and economically affiliated with the Pokagon Band. 3. The expanded PRCDA counties form a contiguous area with the existing PRCDA, and Pokagon Band citizens reside in each of the counties proposed for inclusion in the expanded PRCDA. For these reasons, the IHS has determined the additional counties proposed for inclusion herein to be geographically proximate, meaning ‘‘on or near,’’ to the existing PRCDA. 4. The Pokagon Band has indicated that its PRC program can continue providing the same level of care to the PRC-eligible population if the PRCDA is expanded as proposed, without requiring additional funding or reduction of the current medical priority level. This Notice does not contain reporting or recordkeeping requirements subject to prior approval by the Office of Management and Budget under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980.
