SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

This Act may be cited as the ''Comprehensive Methamphetamine
Response Act''.

SEC. 2. HIGH INTENSITY METHAMPHETAMINE ABUSE AND TRAFFICKING AREAS.

(a) HIMATAs.--The Director may designate a State or any portion of
a State as a high intensity methamphetamine abuse and trafficking area
(in this section referred to as a ''HIMATA'') and provide funding for
such areas in accordance with this section.
(b) Designation Process.--
(1) In general.--The Director may make a HIMATA designation
only after--
(A) receipt of a petition by a Governor of a State
to designate the State or a portion of the State as a
HIMATA; and
(B) making a determination for the area that is the
subject of the petition on the basis of the
methamphetamine epidemic severity index developed under
paragraph (3).
(2) Priority for hidtas.--The Director may accept a
petition in full, accept certain portions of the geographic
areas proposed, or reject the petition. The Director shall give
priority consideration to areas that are already designated a
high intensity drug trafficking area (in this section referred
to as a ''HIDTA'') and include methamphetamine as a primary
reason for that designation.
(3) Severity index.--The Director shall develop a
methamphetamine epidemic severity index to be used for
determining whether to designate an area as a HIMATA under this
section. The index shall be based on the following factors:
(A) Per capita rates of arrests for methamphetamine
possession in an area.
(B) Per capita rates of arrests for methamphetamine
production in an area.
(C) Per capita rates of methamphetamine lab
seizures in an area.
(D) Per capita rates of treatment for
methamphetamine addiction in an area.
(E) Any additional particular factors the Director
considers appropriate for indicating the severity of
the problem in an area.
(c) Funding of HIMATAs.--
(1) In general.--The Director may provide funding to a
State to implement a HIMATA after receipt of a comprehensive
methamphetamine response plan for that HIMATA that meets the
requirements of subsection (d), as determined by the Director.
(2) Level of funding.--The Director shall determine the
level of funds to be provided to a HIMATA based on the
population and the methamphetamine epidemic severity index of
the HIMATA, except that the Director shall increase the amount
of funds that otherwise would be provided to a State by 10
percent if the State has effective precursor control laws or
regulations in place when its CMRP is submitted.
(3) Specific funding requirements.--In providing funds for
a HIMATA, the Director shall require that at least 5 percent of
the funds be used for youth and adult prevention efforts and
that at least 25 percent be used for treating methamphetamine
addiction. The remainder may be used for prosecution, law
enforcement personnel, law enforcement equipment, drug courts,
and other priorities. Federal funding must supplement rather
than supplant State and local funding.
(4) Five year funding.--Funding shall be provided to a
HIMATA on an annual basis for five years. After five years, the
Director shall evaluate the designation of the HIMATA and
determine whether it should be extended.
(d) Comprehensive Methamphetamine Response Plan.--
(1) Requirement to develop plan.--For each HIMATA
designated under this section, the Director shall require the
State in which the HIMATA is located to develop a comprehensive
methamphetamine response plan (in this section referred to as
the ''CMRP'') within six months after the date of designation
that complies with the requirements of this subsection.
(2) Requirements of plan.--A CMRP developed by a State
under this subsection shall--
(A) describe the manner in which the State plans to
use funding provided under this Act to address any
existing inadequacies in enforcement, treatment,
prevention, and precursor controls; and
(B) in the case of a HIMATA that overlaps with an
area designated as a HIDTA, address how the two
programs will cooperate and coordinate, including how
resources and efforts may be merged.
(e) Definitions.--In this Act:
(1) Director.--The term ''Director'' means the Director of
National Drug Control Policy.
(2) HIMATA.--The term ''HIMATA'' means a high intensity
methamphetamine abuse and trafficking area designated under
section 2 of this Act.
(3) HIDTA.--The term ''HIDTA'' means a high intensity drug
trafficking area designated under section 707 of the Office of
National Drug Control Policy Reauthorization Act of 1998
(Public Law 105-277; 21 U.S.C. 1706).
(4) CMRP.--The term ''CMRP'' means a comprehensive
methamphetamine response plan developed under section 2 of this
Act.
(f) Authorization.--There is authorized to be appropriated
$1,000,000,000 for fiscal year 2006 and each fiscal year thereafter to
carry out this Act.
A:
Comprehensive Methamphetamine Response Act - Authorizes the Director of National Drug Control Policy to designate a State, or any portion of a State, as a high intensity methamphetamine abuse and trafficking area (HIMATA) and provide funding for such areas after: (1) receiving a Governor's petition for such designation; and (2) making a determination for the area on the basis of the methamphetamine epidemic severity index developed under this Act. Requires the Director to give priority consideration to areas that are already so designated if methamphetamine is a primary reason for that designation.

Requires the Director to develop a methamphetamine epidemic severity index to be used in making HIMATA determinations based on specified factors, including per capita rates of methamphetamine possession or production, lab seizures, and addiction in an area.

Authorizes the Director to provide funding to a State to implement a HIMATA after receipt of a comprehensive methamphetamine response plan (CMRP). Requires the Director to determine funding levels based on the population and the severity index of the area, with an exception.

Requires the Director to require the State in which the HIMATA is located to develop a CMRP that: (1) describes the manner in which the State plans to use funding provided to address any existing inadequacies in enforcement, treatment, prevention, and precursor controls; and (2) in the case of a HIMATA that overlaps with a high intensity drug trafficking area, addresses how the two programs will coordinate.
