DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND

Substance Abuse and Mental Health

Services Administration

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 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 (301) 443–7978.

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 the latest forms of automated

collection techniques or other forms of

information technology.

Proposed Project: 2001 National

Household Survey on Drug Abuse—

(0930–0110, Revision)

SAMHSA’s National Household

Survey on Drug Abuse (NHSDA) is a

survey of the civilian,

noninstitutionalized population of the

United States 12 years old and older.

The data are used to determine the

prevalence of use of tobacco products,

alcohol, illicit substances, and illicit use

of prescription drugs. 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.

For the 2001 NHSDA, additional

questions in the following substantive

areas are planned: serious mental illness

for adults; selected mental disorders for

youth (12 to 17 years old); one question

regarding state Children’s Health

Insurance Program (CHIP) coverage for

respondents (12 to 19 years old); revised

questions on cigarette dependence;

questions on marketplace issues and

knowledge of state laws regarding

marijuana use; questions on smoking

‘‘bidis’’ and ‘‘kreteks’’ (flavored

cigarettes); and two questions that use

the ‘‘item count’’ methodology to

estimate use of specific hard-core drugs.

The remaining modular components of

the NHSDA questionnaire will remain

essentially unchanged except for minor

modifications to wording and selective

elimination of sufficient questions to

allow for the additional burden of the

questions listed above.

As in 1999 and 2000, the sample size

of the survey for 2001 will be sufficient

to permit prevalence estimates for each

of the fifty states and the District of

Columbia. The total annual burden

estimate is 94,945 hours as shown

below:

AGENCY: Office of the Assistant

ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: The Department of Housing

and Urban Development gives this

notice to the public that the City of

Yonkers, New York, intends to prepare

an Environmental Impact Report/

Environmental Impact Statement (EIR/

EIS) for a proposed apartment project

located at 1105–1135 Warburton

Avenue containing 524 units, 58 units

(11% of the total units) of which are

intended to be affordable housing.

This notice is in accordance with

regulations of the Council on

Environmental Quality as described in

40 CFR parts 1500–1508. Federal

agencies having jurisdiction by law,

special expertise, or other special

interest should report their interests and

indicate their readiness to aid in the

EIR/EIS efforts as a ‘‘Cooperating

Agency’’. Particularly solicited is

information on reports or other

environmental studies planned or

completed in the project area, major

issues and dates which the EIR/EIS

should consider and recommend

mitigation measures and alternatives

associated with the proposed project.

A Draft EIR/EIS will be completed

and pubished about June 30, 2000 for

the proposed action described herein.

Comments relating to the Draft EIR/EIS

Federal Register / Vol. 65, No. 92 / Thursday, May 11, 2000 / Notices 30425

are requested and will be accepted by

the contact person listed below. When

the Draft EIR/EIS is completed, a notice

will be sent to individuals and groups

known to be interested in the Draft EIR/

EIS. Any person or agency interested in

receiving a notice and making comment

on the Draft EIR/EIS should contact the

person listed below.

ADDRESSES: All interested agencies,

groups and persons are invited to

submit written comments on the withinnamed project and the Draft EIR/EIS to:

Lee Ellman, Planning Director,

Department of Planning and

Development, City of Yonkers, 87

Nepperhan Avenue, Suite 311, Yonkers,

New York, 10701, (914) 377–6558.

Comments pertaining to the proposed

project should be received by the person

and office named above within 15 days

of the publication of this notice in order

for all comments to be considered in the

preparation of the Draft EIR/EIS.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The City

of Yonkers, acting on behalf of the U.S.

Department of Housing and Urban

Development will prepare an EIR/EIS to

analyze the potential impacts of

developing a 4.6 acre property, located

on the west side of Warburton Avenue,

north of Odell Avenue. The proposed

project would include 524 units of

housing with a 2-building rental

apartment complex. It is proposed that

58, studio, one and two bedroom

affordable units will be mixed with

market rate units.

Amenities of the complex are to

include a fitness center, swimming pool,

a club room and enclosed parking for

use by residents. The entire building is

expected to be 597,380 square feet in

size with 705 parking spaces.

A 0.91 acre portion is wetland. On

site mitigation is expected to retain a

portion of the wetland. Off site

mitigation will create additional

wetland areas. Both of these actions will

be subject to approval by the Army

Corps of Engineers under application

number 1999–10770–YN.

The project is expected to take

advantage of 80/20 Program tax exempt

financing and federal tax credits to

offset the loss of revenue from the

affordable housing units.

Need for the EIS

It has been determined that the

project may constitute an action

significantly affecting the quality of the

human environment and an

Environmental Impact Report/

Environmental Impact Statement will be

prepared by the City of Yonkers in

accordance with the National

Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (Pub.

L. 91–190) on such project.

Responses to this notice will be used

to:

1. Determine significant

environmental issues

2. Identify data which the EIS/EIR

should address, and,

3. Identify agencies and other parties

which will participate in the EIR/EIS

process and the basis for their

involvement.

This notice is in accordance with the

regulations of Housing and Urban

Development under its rule (HUD Title

24, Part 58, Subpart G, Section 58.55)

and of the Council on Environmental

Quality under its rule (40 CFR part

1500–1508).

Scoping

This notice is part of the process used

for scoping the EIR/EIS. Responses will

help determine the significant

environmental issues, identify data

which the EIR/EIS should address, and

help identify cooperating agencies.

A scoping session to determine the

issues of the Draft EIR/EIS was opened

on March 23, 2000. The closing of the

scoping session will not be less than

fifteen (15) days after the publication of

this notice.

The Draft EIR/EIS will be published

on or about June 30, 2000 and will be

on file, and available for public

inspection, at the address listed above.

Copies may also be obtained upon

request at the same address.

This notice shall be in effect for one

year. If one year after the publication of

the Notice in the Federal Register a

Draft EIS has not been filed on the

project, then the Notice for that project

shall be cancelled. If the Draft EIS is

expected more than one year after the

publication of this Notice, a new

updated Notice shall be published.

Dated: May 5, 2000.
