The public scoping meeting date is: 

Tuesday, September 12, 2017, from 6:30 

p.m. to 8:30 p.m., Eastern Daylight Time 

(EDT). 

ADDRESSES: CHI Center, 10501 New 

Hampshire Avenue, Silver Spring, 

Maryland 20903. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Paul 

Gyamfi, GSA, National Capital Region, 

Public Buildings Service, Office of 

Planning and Design Quality, at 202– 

440–3405. Please contact this number if 

special assistance is needed to attend 

and participate in the scoping meeting. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: GSA 

intends to prepare an Environmental 

Impact Statement (EIS) to analyze the 

potential impacts resulting from the 

proposed Master Plan to support the 

FDA Headquarters consolidation at the 

Federal Research Center (FRC) at White 

Oak, located in Silver Spring, Maryland. 

Background 

In 1997, GSA completed an EIS that 

analyzed the impacts from the 

consolidation of 5,975 FDA employees 

at the FRC. In 2005, GSA completed a 

Supplemental Environmental Impact 

Statement (SEIS) that analyzed the 

impacts of increasing the number of 

employees from 5,947 to 7,720 and the 

impacts of adding a new eastern access 

entrance point into the FRC. In 2009, 

GSA completed its second SEIS that 

analyzed the impacts of increasing the 

number of employees (from 7,720 to 

8,889) needed to conduct the complex 

and comprehensive reviews mandated 

by new legislation. To accommodate 

future growth and further consolidate 

FDA operations, GSA is preparing an 

EIS to assess the impacts of an employee 

population increase, of up to an 

approximately 18,000 employees, over a 

period of 15 years. 

The purpose of the proposed action is 

to provide a Master Plan for the FDA 

Campus at FRC to accommodate the 

projected growth. The need for the 

proposed action is to continue to 

support the FDA Headquarters 

consolidation at FRC, and provide the 

necessary office and laboratory space, in 

order to conduct the complex and 

comprehensive reviews mandated by 

Congress. 

Alternatives Under Consideration 

GSA will analyze a range of 

alternatives (including the no action 

alternative) for the proposed Master 

Plan of the FDA Headquarters, to 

increase the campus population by up 

to an approximately 18,000 employees 

over 15 years. As part of the EIS, GSA 

will study the impacts of each 

alternative on the human environment. 

Scoping Process 

In accordance with NEPA, a scoping 

process will be conducted to aid in 

determining the alternatives to be 

considered and the scope of issues to be 

addressed, as well as for identifying the 

significant issues related to the 

proposed Master Plan. Scoping will be 

accomplished through a public scoping 

meeting, direct mail correspondence to 

potentially interested persons, agencies, 

and organizations, and meetings with 

agencies having an interest in the 

Master Plan. It is important that Federal, 

regional, State, and local agencies, and 

interested individuals take this 

opportunity to identify environmental 

concerns that should be addressed 

during the preparation of the Draft EIS. 

Public Scoping Meeting 

A public scoping meeting will be held 

on Tuesday, September 12, 2017, from 

6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m., EDT. The 

meeting will be an informal open house 

along with a brief presentation, where 

visitors may come, receive information, 

and give comments. GSA is publishing 

notices in the Washington Post, 

Montgomery County Sentinel, and 

Prince George’s Sentinel announcing the 

meeting.

Agencies and the public are 

encouraged to provide written 

comments on the scoping issues in 

addition to, or in lieu of, giving their 

comments at the public scoping 

meeting. Written comments regarding 

the environmental analysis for the 

proposed Master Plan must be

21, 2017, and Monday, September 25,

utility of the proposed information 

collection for the proper performance of 

the agency’s functions, the accuracy of

the quality, utility, and clarity of the 

information to be collected; and the use 

of automated collection techniques or

burden.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) 

(44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), Federal agencies 

must obtain approval from the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) for each 

collection of information they conduct 

or sponsor. The term ‘‘collection of 

information’’ is defined in 44 U.S.C. 

3502(3) and 5 CFR 1320.3(c) and 

includes agency requests or 

requirements that members of the public 

submit reports, keep records, or provide 

information to a third party. Section 

3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44 U.S.C. 

3506(c)(2)(A)) requires Federal agencies 

to publish a 30-day notice in the 

Federal Register concerning each 

proposed collection of information, 

including each proposed extension or 

reinstatement of an existing collection 

of information, before submitting the 

collection to OMB for approval. No 

comments were received in response to 

the 60-day comment period. To comply 

with this requirement, CMS is 

publishing this notice that summarizes 

the following proposed collection(s) of 

information for public comment: 

1. Type of Information Collection 

Request: Revision of a currently 

approved collection; Title of 

Information Collection: Disclosure of 

State Rating Requirements; Use: The 

final rule ‘‘Patient Protection and 

Affordable Care Act; Health Insurance 

Market Rules; Rate Review’’ implements 

sections 2701, 2702, and 2703 of the 

Public Health Service Act (PHS Act), as 

added and amended by the Affordable 

Care Act, and sections 1302(e) and 

1312(c) of the Affordable Care Act. The 

rule directs that states submit to CMS 

certain information about state rating 

and risk pooling requirements for their 

individual, small group, and large group 

markets, as applicable. Specifically, 

states will inform CMS of age rating 

ratios that are narrower than 3:1 for 

adults; tobacco use rating ratios that are 

narrower than 1.5:1; a state-established 

uniform age curve; geographic rating 

areas; whether premiums in the small 

and large group market are required to 

be based on average enrollee amounts 

(also known as composite premiums); 

and, in states that do not permit any 

rating variation based on age or tobacco 

use, uniform family tier structures and 

corresponding multipliers. In addition, 

states that elect to merge their 

individual and small group market risk 

pools into a combined pool will notify 

CMS of such election. This information 

will allow CMS to determine whether 

state-specific rules apply or Federal 

default rules apply. It will also support 

the accuracy of the Federal risk 

adjustment methodology. Form Number: 

CMS–10454 (OMB control number: 

0938–1258); Frequency: On Occasion; 

Affected Public: State, Local, or Tribal 

Governments, Private Sector; Number of 

Respondents: 47; Total Annual 

Responses: 47; Total Annual Hours: 

2,239. (For policy questions regarding 

this collection contact Russell Tipps at
