5. Public Health System Reporting

Requirements

The Public Health System Impact

Statement (PHSIS) is intended to keep

State and local health officials apprised

of proposed health services grant and

cooperative agreement applications

submitted by community-based

nongovernmental organizations within

their jurisdictions.

Community-based nongovernmental

service providers who are not

transmitting their applications through

the State must submit a PHSIS to the

head(s) of the appropriate State and

local health agencies in the area(s) to be

affected not later than the pertinent

receipt date for applications. This

PHSIS consists of the following

information:

a. A copy of the face page of the

application (Standard form 424).

b. A summary of the project (PHSIS),

not to exceed one page, which provides:

(1) A description of the population to

be served.

(2) A summary of the services to be

provided.

(3) A description of the coordination

planned with the appropriate State or

local health agencies.

State and local governments and

Indian Tribal Authority applicants are

not subject to the Public Health System

Reporting Requirements.

6. PHS Non-use of Tobacco Policy

Statement

The PHS strongly encourages all grant

and cooperative agreement recipients to

provide a smoke-free workplace and

promote the non-use of all tobacco

products. This is consistent with the

PHS mission to protect and advance the

physical and mental health of the

American people.

Specific application guidance

materials may include more detailed

guidance as to how the Center will

implement SAMHSA’s policy on

promoting the non-use of tobacco.

7. Executive Order 12372

Applications submitted in response to

most, if not all, of the FY 1995 activities

listed above are subject to the

intergovernmental review requirements

of Executive Order 12372, as

implemented through DHHS regulations

at 45 CFR Part 100. E.O. 12372 sets up

a system for State and local government

review of applications for Federal

financial assistance. Applicants (other

than Federally recognized Indian tribal

governments) should contact the State’s

Single Point of Contact (SPOC) as early

as possible to alert them to the

prospective application(s) and to receive

any necessary instructions on the State’s

review process. For proposed projects

serving more than one State, the

applicant is advised to contact the SPOC

of each affected State. A current listing

of SPOCs is included in the application

guidance materials. The SPOC should

send any State review process

recommendations directly to:

Office of Review, Substance Abuse and

Mental Health Services

Administration, Rockwall II Building,

suite 630, 5600 Fishers Lane,

Rockville, Maryland 20857

The due date for State review process

recommendations is no later than 60

days after the specified deadline date for

the receipt of applications. The CSAP

does not guarantee to accommodate or

explain SPOC comments that are

received after the 60-day cut-off.

Application guidance materials will

specify if a particular FY 1995 activity

described above is not subject to the

provisions of Executive Order 12372.

Dated: February 7, 1995.

Acting Executive Officer, SAMHSA.
