The Draft EIS analyzes the potential environmental impacts of GSA’s Proposed Action for the GSA to support CBP’s mission by bringing the BOTA LPOE operations in line with current CBP land port design standards and operational requirements while addressing existing deficiencies identified with the ongoing port operations. The Bridge of the Americas is located in El Paso County Texas along the Rio Grande River, which serves as the boundary between the U.S. and Mexico. The BOTA LPOE connects with the Mexican land port of ‘‘Cordova’’ in Juarez, Chihuahua, Mexico and is one of 4 crossings in the City of El Paso. The port currently processes toll-free inbound and outbound private vehicular, pedestrian, and commercial truck traffic. The existing LPOE facilities were built in 1967 with minor updates and repairs occurring in the 80’s and 90’s. The facilities at BOTA are inadequate for processing the amount of inbound and outbound private vehicular, pedestrian, and commercial truck traffic it receives daily leading to significant wait times, congestion and lines of idling cargo trucks.

ACTION: Information collection notice. AGENCY: VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:44 Sep 19, 2024 Jkt 262001 In compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, this notice announces the intention of the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) to request that the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approve the reinstatement without change of the information collection project Evaluating the Implementation of PCOR to Increase Referral, Enrollment, and Retention through Automatic Referral to Cardiac Rehabilitation (CR) with Care Coordinator OMB No. 0935–0252 for which approval has expired. The reinstatement of this previously approved PRA collection for which approval has expired is required in order to discontinue this collection.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Doris Lefkowitz, AHRQ Reports Clearance Officer, (301) 427–1477, or by email at REPORTSCLEARANCEOFFICER@ ahrq.hhs.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title of Information Collection: Evaluating the Implementation of PCOR to Increase Referral, Enrollment, and Retention through Automatic Referral to Cardiac Rehabilitation (CR) with Care Coordinator. OMB No.: 0935–0252. Type of Request: Reinstatement without change to discontinue the collection. The aim of this project, known as TAKEheart, was to (a) raise awareness about the benefits of cardiac rehabilitation (CR) after myocardial infarction or coronary revascularization, then to (b) spread knowledge about the best practices to increase referrals to CR, and, finally, (c) to increase CR uptake. AHRQ evaluated TAKEheart to assess: • the extent and effectiveness of the dissemination and implementation efforts • the uptake and usage of Automatic Referral with Care Coordination and • levels of referral to CR at the end of the intervention. Evaluation results were used to improve the intervention and to provide guidance for future AHRQ SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00079 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 77153 dissemination and implementation projects. Two cohorts of ‘‘Partner Hospitals,’’ up to 125 hospitals in total, engaged in efforts to implement Automatic Referral with Care Coordination over twelve-month periods. The evaluation ascertained the diversity of hospitals engaged in the activities that contributed to (or hindered) their efforts, and the types of support which they reported having been most (and least) useful. This information was used to improve recruitment, technical assistance, and tools for the second cohort. In addition, hospitals—including those involved in the implementation— were invited to attend Affinity Group virtual meetings organized around specific topics of interest which are not intrinsic to Automatic Referral with Care Coordination. Hospital staff engaged in Affinity Groups created a vibrant Learning Community. The evaluation determined which Affinity Groups engaged the most participants of the Learning Community, and which resources participants determined the most useful. This information was used to develop resources which were available on a new, permanent website dedicated to improving CR. This study was conducted by AHRQ through its contractor, Abt Associates Inc., pursuant to AHRQ’s statutory authority to disseminate governmentfunded research relevant to comparative clinical effectiveness research. 42 U.S.C. 299b–37(a). Method of Collection To collect data on the many facets of the intervention, the collection implemented multiple data collection tools, each of which had a specific purpose and set of respondents. 1. Partner Hospital Champion Survey. Each Partner Hospital designated a ‘‘Champion’’ who coordinated activities associated with implementing Automatic Referral with Care Coordination at the hospital and provide the Champion’s name and email address. Champions could have had any role in the hospital, although they were expected to be in relevant positions, such as cardiologists or quality improvement managers. We conducted online surveys of 125 Champions (one Champion per hospital). We used the email addresses to send the Champion a survey at two points: seven months after the start of implementation and at the end of the 12-month implementation period. The first survey focused on four constructs. First, it captured data about the hospital context, such as whether it had prior experience customizing an EMR or is a safety net hospital.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The Bridge of the Americas is located in El Paso County Texas along 
the Rio Grande River, which serves as the boundary between the U.S. and 
Mexico. The BOTA LPOE connects with the Mexican land port of 
``Cordova'' in Juarez, Chihuahua, Mexico and is one of 4 crossings in 
the City of El Paso. The port currently processes toll-free inbound and 
outbound private vehicular, pedestrian, and commercial truck traffic.
    The existing LPOE facilities were built in 1967 with minor updates 
and repairs occurring in the 80's and 90's. The facilities at BOTA are 
inadequate for processing the amount of inbound and outbound private 
vehicular, pedestrian, and commercial truck traffic it receives daily 
leading to significant wait times, congestion and lines of idling cargo 
trucks. Thus, the purpose and need for the modernization project

at the Bridge of the Americas Land Port of Entry.
    GSA conducted internal and external scoping meetings to seek input 
on alternatives and issues associated with implementation of the 
proposed action through various alternatives. The GSA has narrowed the 
alternatives that best fulfill the purpose and need to the following 
two with the addition of the No Action Alternative:
    Multi-Level Modernization with High/Low Booths Primarily within 
Existing Port Boundaries with Minor Land Acquisition. (Viable Action 
Alternative #A1)
    Multi-Level Modernization within Existing Port Boundaries with 
Minor Land Acquisition Immediately Adjacent to the Port and Elimination 
of Commercial Cargo Operations. (Viable Action Alternative #4)
    The Draft EIS states the purpose and need for the Proposed Action, 
analyzes the alternatives considered, including the option of No Action 
and assesses environmental impacts of each alternative, including 
avoidance, minimization, and potential mitigation measures.
    GSA, in cooperation with CBP has selected Viable Action Alternative 
#4 Multi-Level Modernization within Existing Port Boundaries with Minor 
Land Acquisition Immediately Adjacent to the Port and Elimination of 
Commercial Cargo Operations as its Preferred Alternative.
    GSA believes this alternative would best fulfill its statutory 
mission and responsibilities, giving consideration to economic, 
environmental, technical and other factors and is seeking public and 
stakeholder comments on this alternative before a final decision is 
made.
