The Public Health Service (PHS) Act
authorizes block grants to States for the purpose of providing
substance abuse prevention and treatment services. Under the
provisions of the law, States may receive allotments only after an
annual application is submitted and approved by the Secretary. This
submission provides States with the forms and instructions for
their applications so they can comply with the requirements of the
law and regulations implementing the law. Beginning in FY 2000
prevention and treatment outcome measures are included for
voluntary reporting by States that have data available.

Currently, there are 34,125
hours in the OMB inventory. The Program is requesting 33,325 hours.
The decrease of 800 hours is due to the program's change from an
annual State plan to a three-year State plan for substance abuse
prevention and treatment with updates if necessary. Since FY 2008,
SAMHSA has pre-populated the performance measures for substance
abuse prevention and treatment utilizing data from SAMHSA's
National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) and Treatment
Episode Data Set (TEDS); therefore, the estimated Annual Reporting
Burden may be significantly less for some States as a result.
