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 at (240) 276–0166.
Project: State Opioid Response (SOR)/
Tribal Opioid Response (TOR) Program
Instrument (OMB No. 0930–0384)—
Revision
SAMHSA is requesting approval to
modify its existing SOR/TOR Program
Instrument by (1) broadening language

from ‘naloxone’ to ‘naloxone and other
opioid overdose reversal medications’
due to the availability of new FDAapproved non-naloxone overdose
reversal medications; (2) broadening
language from ‘fentanyl test strips’ to
‘drug checking technologies as directed
by SAMHSA due to the availability of
new drug checking technology,
including test strips for other emerging
substances; (3) adding five questions to
collect treatment and recovery support
data that were previously reported
biannually in the performance progress
reports; (4) adding one question to
collect data on clients who received
contingency management for the
treatment of stimulant use disorder; (5)
adding a sub-recipient entity inventory
table to collect expenditure data for
each grant sub-recipient in response to
the Consolidated Appropriations Act,
2023 (42 U.S.C. 300x–52(a)); (6)
combining four questions with similar
themes into two questions for clarity; (7)
removing question 12 because it is
comprised of more than one question
with several different ideas, making it
unsuited for this instrument; and (8)
adding one question at the request of the
Office of National Drug Control Policy
(ONDCP) to collect information on
Congressionally mandated and
programmatic activities, and to comply
with reporting requirements. The
program-level information is collected
quarterly for questions 1 to 13b, and
annually for the sub-recipient entity
inventory table, and entered and stored
in SAMHSA’s Performance
Accountability and Reporting System
(SPARS), which is a real-time,
performance management system that
captures information on the SAMHSAfunded substance use and substance use
disorder prevention, harm reduction,
treatment, and recovery support
services, and mental health services
delivered in the United States.
Continued approval of this information
collection will allow SAMHSA to
continue to meet Government
Performance and Results Modernization
Act of 2010 reporting requirements that
quantify the effects and
accomplishments of its discretionary
grant programs.
The SOR/TOR programs are
authorized under the Further
Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2024,
Division D, Title II, and section 1003 of
the 21st Century Cures Act [Public Law
114–255] (42 U.S.C. 290ee–3a), as
amended. SAMHSA anticipates 189
recipients (states, territories, and tribal
entities) will participate in these grant
programs. Grantee-level data will
include information related to: reported

overdose reversals; the purchase and
distribution of naloxone and other
opioid overdose reversal medications;
types of entities that distribute naloxone
and other opioid overdose reversal
medications; training on recognizing an
opioid overdose and appropriate use of
naloxone and other opioid overdose
reversal medications; implementation of
prevention and education activities; the
purchase and distribution of drug
checking technologies as directed by
SAMHSA; treatment services for opioid
use disorder (OUD) and stimulant use
disorder; types of recovery support
services; and the expenditure amounts
for each SOR and TOR grant subrecipient. This grantee-level information
will be collected quarterly for questions
1 to 13b, and annually for the subrecipient entity inventory table.
The revisions to the tool will continue
to enable SAMHSA to better assess
grantee accountability and performance
on the required prevention, education,
harm reduction, treatment, and recovery
support activities for the SOR/TOR
programs. The revisions will continue to
assist SAMHSA in providing
comprehensive data on the full range of
required activities to inform
Congressionally mandated reports for
the SOR program.
The Center for Substance Abuse
Treatment (CSAT) anticipates that the
time required to collect and report the
program-level information is
approximately 33 minutes per response.
Since the submission of the previous
OMB package, there has been an
increase in the number of respondents.
The estimated burden associated with
the program-level instrument includes
an adjustment to reflect the current
number of grantees.
