services. The Council is composed of 

members of the public, appointed by the 

Secretary, and Federal ex-officio 

members. 

AHRQ’s National Advisory Council 

on Healthcare Research and Quality 

(NAC) has established a Subcommittee 

on Quality Measures for Children’s 

Healthcare in Medicaid and Children’s 

Health Insurance Programs (CHIP). The 

Subcommittee was created to provide 

advice to the NAC for consideration and 

transmission to AHRQ as AHRQ 

undertakes responsibilities in the 

identification of an initial core quality 

measure set for use by Medicaid and 

CHIP programs for children’s 

healthcare. 

The identification of an initial core 

measure set for public comment is 

required under Public Law 111–3, the 

Child Health Insurance Program 

Reauthorization Act (CHIPRA). The 

initial core measure set is required to be 

posted for public comment by January 1, 

2010. CHIPRA reauthorized the Child 

Health Insurance Program (CHIP) 

originally established in 1997, and 

added a number of new provisions 

designed to improve health care quality 

and outcomes for children in Title IV of 

the law. AHRQ is working closely with 

the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid 

Services (CMS) in implementing these 

provisions. For more information about 

AHRQ’s role in carrying out the quality 

provisions of CHIPRA, see http:// 

www.ahrq.gov/chip/chipraact.htm. This 

Web site will link to an e-mail address 

that can be used to submit comments on 

CHIPRA quality measure development 

as the process of identifying the initial 

core measure set proceeds. 

II. Agenda 

On Wednesday, July 22, 2009, the 

Subcommittee meeting will convene at 

10 a.m., with the call to order by the 

Subcommittee Co-Chairs. The AHRQ 

Director or her designee will present an 

update on pertinent AHRQ activities 

with respect to health care qualityrelated efforts and research and projects 

of interest with respect to pediatric 

health care. 

A draft agenda and roster of 

subcommittee members will be 

available before the meeting from 

Padmini Jagadish, Agency for 

Healthcare Research and Quality, 540 

Gaither Road, Rockville, Maryland

DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND 

SECURITY 

Policy Directorate/Office of Strategic 

Plans; Quadrennial Homeland Security 

Report 

AGENCY: Policy Directorate/Office of 

Strategic Plans, Department of 

Homeland Security. 

ACTION: 30-Day Notice and request for 

comments; Emergency Submission to 

the Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB). 

SUMMARY: The Department of Homeland 

Security, Policy Directorate/Office of 

Strategic Plans, submits the following 

information collection request (ICR) to 

the Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) for review and clearance in 

accordance with the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104–13, 

44 U.S.C. Chapter 35). Policy 

Directorate/Office of Strategic Plans is 

soliciting comments concerning the 

Quadrennial Homeland Security Report. 

The purpose of this notice is to allow 30 

days for public comments. 

DATES: Comments are encouraged and 

will be accepted until July 30, 2009. 

This process is conducted in accordance 

with 5 CFR 1320.10. 

ADDRESSES: Interested persons are 

invited to submit written comments on 

the proposed information collection to 

the Office of Information and Regulatory 

Affairs, Office of Management and 

Budget. Comments should be addressed 

to OMB Desk Officer, Department of 

Homeland Security, Office of Civil 

Rights and Civil Liberties, and sent via 

electronic mail to 

oira_submission@omb.eop.gov or faxed 

to (202) 395–5806. 

The Office of Management and Budget 

is particularly interested in comments 

which: 

1. Evaluate whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; 

2. Evaluate the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; 

3. Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and 

4. Minimize the burden of the 

collection of information on those who 

are to respond, including through the 

use of appropriate automated, 

electronic, mechanical, or other 

technological collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology, 

e.g., permitting electronic submissions 

of responses. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If 

additional information is required 

contact: Department of Homeland 

Security (DHS), Policy Directorate/ 

Office of Strategic Plans, Michael 

Galang, (202) 282–9118. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: A 

stakeholder online collaboration 

platform will be created and hosted to 

engage homeland security stakeholders 

around the compelling questions 

produced by the QHSR study groups. 

The dialogue platform is based on the 

principle of radical scalability: The 

more feedback that is received, the more 

clearly sorted participants’ preferences 

and priorities become. In the platform, 

users can submit their best ideas, refine 

them in open discussion, and use 

simple rating and tagging features to 

identify the most popular ideas and 

important overarching themes. 

The platform can host multiple 

simultaneous dialogues, and 

dynamically pose new questions, so that 

DHS can repeatedly ‘‘pulse’’ 

participants over a three-month 

timeframe. All homeland security 

stakeholders are eligible and are invited 

to do so. The Web site will be public 

facing with self-identify and opt-in user 

information requested. 

Participation by the public is 

completely voluntary. Content will be 

posted on the online collaboration Web 

site for up to five days for each 

collaboration event. At the conclusion 

of each event, comments and input will 

be reviewed by the study groups and 

incorporated as appropriate into their 

products. The time required by the 

public to provide input on content 

posted on the collaboration site is 

estimated at between one and two hours 

per collaboration event for a maximum 

of six hours over the course of the 

QHSR. Three online collaboration 

events are currently proposed (July 16– 

20, August 13–17, and September 17– 

21). The public will be notified of 

content postings via the DHS QHSR 

public Web site, http://www.dhs.gov/ 

qhsr. Other notification options may 

include FedBiz notices about the 

scheduled online collaboration events, 

the DHS Public Affairs news feed, and

Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 124 / Tuesday, June 30, 2009 / Notices 31287 

various GSA-approved social 

networking media (e.g., Twitter, 

Facebook). Homeland security-related 

associations will also be asked to invite 

their members to participate in the 

online collaborations. 

Participants will be asked to review 

developed content for those homeland 

security topics they are interested in. 

Examples of requested participant input 

include: 

• Comment and rate phase I solicited 

input, thereby prioritizing those 

concepts and suggestions they deem 

critical and which should be considered 

by the study groups during their 

respective reviews. 

• Comment on and rate proposed 

strategic objectives and key strategic 

outcome statements for the homeland 

security mission areas under review. 

• Vote on proposed mission 

objectives and outcome statements as to 

whether they agree or disagree with the 

proposed content. 

In addition to viewing the input 

received via public participation in the 

collaboration tool during and after the 

dialog period, the input will be sorted 

and disseminated to the study groups 

who will then incorporate the input into 

their deliberations and subsequent 

content generation as appropriate. Study 

group content will be posted via two 

collaboration events, in July and 

August, with final draft conclusions 

posted via the collaboration event in 

September, prior to the study groups’ 

final reports.
