identifying the challenges associated 

with pharmacogenomics product 

development and integration into 

clinical and public health practice. It 

presents information and 

recommendations in three major areas: 

(1) Issues associated with research and 

development; (2) ‘‘gatekeepers,’’ i.e., 

those who have major roles in directing 

the course of pharmacogenomic 

technologies; and (3) implementation of 

pharmacogenomics to improve 

outcomes in clinical practice. 

SACGHS is requesting comments on 

all aspects of the draft report and 

recommendations. In particular, the 

Committee would welcome feedback on 

the following questions: 

• Are the discussions of topics and 

issues accurate and complete? 

• Have any significant opportunities, 

challenges, or other issues been missed? 

• Does the report adequately describe 

the range of perspectives on the issues 

discussed in the report? 

• Are the draft recommendations 

specific enough? 

• Are there other strategies for 

addressing the issues? 

• Which draft recommendations 

should be of highest priority for the 

Federal Government to address? 

• Appendix A of the report identifies 

major pharmacogenomics activities in 

the public and private sector. Are there 

other relevant initiatives that should be 

included in the list? 

Comments received by June 1, 2007, 

will be considered by SACGHS in 

preparing the final report. The draft 

report and the public comments will be 

discussed at a future SACGHS meeting. 

Comments also will available for 

public inspection at the Office of

Public Comment on the Proposed 

Adoption of ANA Program Policies and 

Procedures; Correction 

AGENCY: Administration for Native 

Americans (ANA) 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: Pursuant to section 814 of the 

Native American Programs Act of 1974 

(the Act) 42 U.S.C. 2992b–1, ANA 

herein describes its proposed 

interpretive rules, statements of general 

policy and rules of agency procedure or 

practice in relation to the Social and 

Economic Development Strategies 

(hereinafter referred to as SEDS), Native 

Language Preservation and Maintenance 

(hereinafter referred to as Native 

Language), Environmental Regulatory 

Enhancement (hereinafter referred to as 

Environmental), Environmental 

Mitigation (hereinafter referred to as 

Mitigation), Improving the Well-Being 

of Children—Native American Healthy 

Marriage Initiative (hereinafter referred 

to as Healthy Marriage) programs and 

any Special Initiatives. Under the 

statute, ANA is required to provide 

members of the public an opportunity to 

comment on proposed changes in 

interpretive rules, statements of general 

policy and rules of agency procedure or 

practice and to give notice of the final 

adoption of such changes at least thirty 

(30) days before the changes become 

effective. This Notice also provides 

additional information about ANA’s 

plan for administering the programs. 

On July 18, 2005, ANA published a 

Notice of Public Comment (NOPC) in 

the Federal Register (Vol. 70, No. 136) 

announcing an administrative policy 

change on the number of awards an 

eligible applicant could receive under 

the SEDS program, Catalog of Federal 

Domestic Assistance number 93.612. 

This change only affected the Healthy 

Marriage program. On November 21, 

2006, ANA published the annual NOPC 

in the Federal Register (Vol. 71, No. 

224), which did not include a necessary 

correction to the revised administrative 

policy published on July 18, 2005. On 

December 22, 2006, ANA published a 

third Federal Register notice (Vol. 71, 

No. 246) to clarify the revised 

administrative policy published on July 

18, 2005, on the number of awards an 

eligible applicant could receive under 

the SEDS program, Catalog of Federal 

Domestic Assistance number 93.612. 

ANA received three responses to the 

December 22, 2006, NOPC clarification. 

After review and consideration of the 

comments received, ANA determined 

that the administrative policy originally 

published on July 18, 2005, required 

clarification and revision. This Notice 

clarifies the agency’s intent and 

provides a definitive statement on the 

number of awards an eligible applicant 

can receive under the Catalog of Federal 

Domestic Assistance number 93.612.

Operations, toll-free at (877) 922–9262. 

Additional Information: The 

following statement corrects previous 

notices: 

VI. ANA Administrative Policy Change 

In the July 18, 2005, Federal Register 

(Vol. 70, No. 136), ANA made an 

administrative policy change that 

eligible applicants applying for funding 

under ANA’s healthy marriage special 

initiative under Catalog of Federal 

Domestic Assistance number 93.612, 

would not be held to the long-standing 

ANA policy: ‘‘An applicant can have 

only one active Social and Economic 

Development Strategies (SEDS) grant 

operating at any given time.’’

On December 22, 2006, ANA 

published notice that ANA was 

clarifying its policy pertaining to
