Project: 2011 National Survey on Drug 

Use and Health (OMB No. 0930–0110)— 

Revision 

The National Survey on Drug Use and 

Health (NSDUH), formerly the National 

Household Survey on Drug Abuse 

(NHSDA) is a survey of the civilian, 

non-institutionalized population of the 

United States 12 years old and older. 

The survey is used to determine the 

prevalence of use of tobacco products, 

alcohol, illicit substances, and illicit use 

of prescription drugs. The survey is also 

used to collect information on mental 

health problems and the utilization of 

substance abuse and mental health 

services. The results are used by 

SAMHSA, ONDCP, Federal Government 

agencies, and other organizations and 

researchers to establish policy, direct 

program activities, and better allocate 

resources. 

The 2011 NSDUH will continue 

conducting a follow-up clinical 

interview with a subsample of 

approximately 1,500 respondents. The 

design of this study is based on the 

recommendations from a panel of expert 

consultants convened by SAMHSA’s 

Center for Mental Health Services 

(CMHS), to discuss mental health 

surveillance data collection strategies. 

The goal is to create a statistically sound 

measure that may be used to estimate 

the prevalence of Serious Mental Illness 

(SMI) among adults (age 18+). 

For the 2011 NSDUH, no 

questionnaire changes are proposed. 

As with all NSDUH/NHSDA surveys 

conducted since 1999, the sample size 

of the survey for 2011 will be sufficient 

to permit prevalence estimates for each 

of the 50 States and the District of 

Columbia. 

Because the NSDUH collects data on 

substance use, mental health and the 

utilization of substance abuse and 

mental health services, it is an 

appropriate and convenient vehicle to 

measure the impact of the Deepwater 

Horizon oil spill on residents of that 

region. Therefore, SAMHSA is planning 

to expand the NSDUH by oversampling 

the geographic region impacted by the 

oil spill. The current NSDUH sample 

design will be implemented and an 

oversampling method that results in an 

additional 2,000 completed interviews 

in the gulf coast region will be 

employed. The additional interviews 

will be concentrated in the coastal 

counties of Alabama, Florida, Louisiana, 

and Mississippi. All survey instruments 

and protocols will be identical for this 

additional sample. The total number of 

respondents for the 2011 NSDUH will 

be 69,500, or 2,000 cases more than the 

planned sample size for 2010. 

Though there will be some increase in 

the sample for all four States involved 

in the Deepwater Horizon event 

(Alabama, Florida, Louisiana, and 

Mississippi), specific counties in the 

gulf coast region were chosen for 

focused over sampling. These counties 

were chosen based on the following 

criteria: 

• Claims activity to BP for economic 

and related health needs; 

• County involvement with 

Department of Education and 

Administration for Children and 

Families programming; and 

• State assessment of impacted 

counties based on consultation with 

SAMHSA during the preparation of aid 

applications.

Proposed Project: Emergency Response 

Grants Regulations—42 CFR Part 51— 

(OMB No. 0930–0229)—Extension 

This rule implements section 501(m) 

of the Public Health Service Act (42 

U.S.C. 290aa), which authorizes the 

Secretary to make noncompetitive 

grants, contracts or cooperative 

agreements to public entities to enable 

such entities to address emergency 

substance abuse or mental health needs 

in local communities. The rule 

establishes criteria for determining that 

a substance abuse or mental health 

emergency exists, the minimum content 

for an application, and reporting 

requirements for recipients of such 

funding. SAMHSA will use the 

information in the applications to make 

a determination that the requisite need 

exists; that the mental health and/or 

substance abuse needs are a direct result 

of the precipitating event; that no other 

local, state, tribal or Federal funding 

sources are available to address the 

need; that there is an adequate plan of 

services; that the applicant has 

appropriate organizational capability; 

and, that the budget provides sufficient 

justification and is consistent with the 

documentation of need and the plan of 

services. Eligible applicants may apply 

to the Secretary for either of two types 

of substance abuse and mental health 

emergency response grants: Immediate 

awards and Intermediate awards. The 

former are designed to be funded up to 

$50,000, or such greater amount as 

determined by the Secretary on a caseby-case basis, and are to be used over 

the initial 90-day period commencing as 

soon as possible after the precipitating 

event; the latter awards require more 

documentation, including a needs 

assessment, other data and related 

budgetary detail. The Intermediate 

awards have no predefined budget limit. 

Typically, Intermediate awards would 

be used to meet systemic mental health 

and/or substance abuse needs during 

the recovery period following the 

Immediate award period. Such awards 

may be used for up to one year, with a 

possible second year supplement based 

on submission of additional required 

information and data. This program is 

an approved user of the PHS–5161 

application form, approved by OMB 

under control number 0920–0428. The 

quarterly financial status reports in 

51d.10(a)(2) and (b)(2) are as permitted 

by 45 CFR 92.41(b); the final program 

report, financial status report and final 

voucher in 51d.10(a)(3) and in 

51d.10(b)(3–4) are in accordance with 

45 CFR 92.50(b). Information collection 

requirements of 45 CFR part 92 are
