**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  The Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986 (SARA) [42 U.S.C. 9601 et seq. ] amended the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA or Superfund) [42 U.S.C. 9601 et seq. ] by establishing certain requirements for ATSDR and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) with regard to hazardous substances most commonly found at facilities on the CERCLA National Priorities List (NPL). Among these statutory requirements is a mandate for the Administrator of ATSDR to prepare toxicological profiles for each substance included on the Priority List of Hazardous Substances (also called the Substance Priority List). This list identifies 275 hazardous substances that ATSDR (in cooperation with EPA) have determined pose the most significant potential threat to human health. The availability of the revised list of the 275 priority substances was announced in the Federal Register on November 3rd, 2011 (76 FR 68193). For prior versions of the list of substances, see Federal Register notices dated December 7, 2005 (70 FR 70284); and March 6, 2008 (73 FR 12178). Substances To Be Evaluated for Set 26 Toxicological Profiles

Each year, ATSDR develops a list of substances to be considered for toxicological profile development. The Set 26 nomination process includes consideration of all substances on the ATSDR’s Substance Priority List (SPL) as well as other substances nominated by the public. The 275 substances on the list will be considered for Set 26 Toxicological Profile development. This list may be found at the following Web site: www.atsdr.cdc.gov/SPL , and in the docket at www.regulations.gov.

Submission of Nominations for the evaluation of Set 26 Substances: Today’s notice invites voluntary public nominations for substances included on the SPL and for substances not listed on the SPL. All nominations should include full name of the nominator, affiliation, and email address. When nominating a non-SPL substance, please include the rationale for the nomination. Please note, email addresses will not be posted on regulations.gov.

ATSDR will evaluate all data and information associated with nominated substances and will determine the final list of substances to be chosen for toxicological profile development. Substances will be chosen according to ATSDR’s specific guidelines for selection. These guidelines can be found in the Selection Criteria announced in the Federal Register on May 7, 1993 ( 58FR27286–27287). A hard copy of the Selection Criteria is available upon request or may be accessed at: http:// www.atsdr.cdc.gov/toxprofiles/ guidance/criteria

**Agency Information Collection Activities: Submission for OMB**  **Review; Comment Request**

**AGENCY :**  Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, HHS.

In compliance with the requirement of section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), Department of Health and Human Services, is publishing the following summary of proposed collections for public comment. Interested persons are invited to send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information, including any of the following subjects: (1) The necessity and utility of the proposed information collection for the proper performance of the Agency’s function; (2) the accuracy of the estimated burden; (3) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology to minimize the information collection burden.

1. Title of Information Collection: Annual MLR and Rebate Calculation Report; Type of Collection: New collection; Use: Under Section 2718 of the Affordable Care Act and implementing regulation at 45 CFR Part 158 (75 FR 74865, December 1, 2010) as modified by technical corrections on December 30, 2010 (75 FR 82277), a health insurance issuer (issuer) offering group or individual health insurance coverage must submit a report to the Secretary concerning the amount the issuer spends each year on claims,quality improvement expenses, nonclaims costs, Federal and State taxes and licensing and regulatory fees, and the amount of earned premium. An issuer must provide an annual rebate to enrollees if the amount it spends on certain costs compared to its premium revenue (excluding Federal and State taxes and licensing and regulatory fees) does not meet a certain ratio, referred to as the medical loss ratio (MLR). An interim final rule (IFR) implementing the MLR was published on December 1, 2010 (75 FR 74865) and modified by technical corrections on December 30, 2010 (75 FR 82277), which added Part 158 to Title 45 of the Code of Federal Regulations. The IFR is effective January

1, 2011. A final rule regarding selected provisions of the IFR was published on December 7, 2011 (76 FR 76574, CMS– 9998–FC) and an interim final rule regarding an issue not included in issuers’ reporting obligations (disbursement of rebates by non-federal governmental plans) was also published December 7, 2011 (76 FR 76596, CMS– 9998–IFC2). Both rules published on December 7, 2011 are effective January 1, 2012. Each issuer is required to submit annually MLR data, including information about any rebates it must provide, on a form prescribed by CMS, for each State in which the issuer conducts business. Each issuer is also required to provide a rebate notice to each enrollee that is due a rebate payment for any given MLR reporting year. Additionally, each issuer is required to maintain for a period of seven years all documents, records and other evidence that support the data included in each issuer’s annual report to the Secretary.

The original 60-day comment period began on December 16, 2011 and pertained to the MLR Annual Reporting Form, and closed on February 14, 2012. On February 16, we published an amended PRA package with Notices to Consumers and reopened the public comment period until March 2, 2012 to accommodate comments on the amendments to the PRA package. We received a total of 15 public comments regarding the Annual Reporting Form and 11 public comments regarding the Notices to Consumers and Instructions for these notices. Most public comments addressed multiple issues. We have taken into consideration all the proposed suggestions and have made changes to the Annual Reporting Form and Instructions, as well as to the Notices to Consumers and Instructions. In addition, CMS is adjusting the estimated burden that correlates with the Rebate Notices and the MLR Information Notices.

**Proposed Information Collection Activity; Comment Request** 

Title: Study of Coordination of Tribal TANF and Child Welfare Services. OMB No.: New Collection. Description: The Study of Coordination of Tribal TANF and Child Welfare Services is sponsored by the Office of Planning, Research and Evaluation (OPRE), Administration for Children and Families of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. The study examines the approaches and strategies utilized by tribes and tribal organizations that were awarded the grants for Coordination of Tribal TANF and Child Welfare Services to Tribal Families at Risk of Child Abuse or Neglect.

The descriptive study of these programs that serve tribal communities will document the way in which the tribal grantees are creating and adapting culturally relevant and appropriate approaches, systems, and programs to increase coordination and enhance service delivery to address child abuse and neglect. The study will also document challenges faced and lessons learned to inform the field of practice as well as policymakers and funders at various levels.

The proposed information collection activities consist of semi-structured interviews, conducted at each of the 14 tribal communities, and a grantee feedback survey on the usefulness of periodically held cross-grantee learning

events.

Respondents: Program director(s), tribal TANF and child welfare staff and supervisors, program partners, and tribal leaders or elders. The information collection does not include direct interaction with individuals or families that receive the services.
