Agency Information Collection Activities: Proposed Collection; 
Comment Request

    In compliance with Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995 concerning opportunity for public comment on proposed 
collections of information, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health 
Services Administration (SAMHSA) will publish periodic summaries of 
proposed projects. To request more information on the proposed projects 
or to obtain a copy of the information collection plans, call the 
SAMHSA Reports Clearance Officer on (240) 276-1243.
    Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the proposed collections of 
information are necessary for the proper performance of the functions 
of the agency, including whether the information shall have practical 
utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the 
proposed collection of information; (c) ways to enhance the quality, 
utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) ways 
to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents, 
including through the use of automated collection techniques or other 
forms of information technology.

Proposed Project: Obligated Service for Mental Health Traineeships: 
Regulations (42 CFR Part 62a) and Forms (OMB No. 0930-0074)--Revision

    SAMHSA's Center for Mental Health Services (CMHS) awards grants to 
institutions for training instruction and traineeships in mental health 
and related disciplines. Prior to statutory change in 2000, graduate 
student recipients of these clinical traineeships were required to 
perform service, as determined by the Secretary to be appropriate in 
terms of the individual's training and experience, for a length of time 
equal to the period of support. The clinical trainees funded prior to 
implementation of the statutory change are required to submit the 
SAMHSA Form SMA 111-2, which is an annual report on employment status 
and any changes in name and/or address, to SAMHSA. The annual burden 
estimate is provided below.
