Agency Information Collection Activities: Submission for OMB 
Review; Comment Request

    Periodically, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services 
Administration (SAMHSA) will publish a list of information collection 
requests under OMB review, in compliance with the Paperwork Reduction 
Act (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35). To request a copy of these documents, call 
the SAMHSA Reports Clearance Officer on [phone].

Treatment Outcomes and Performance Pilot Studies (TOPPS)--(OMB No. 
0930-0182; Extension)

    The TOPPS program awarded contracts to 14 States to develop and 
pilot test performance and outcomes measures for substance abuse 
treatment services. The pilot studies are collecting data from 
substance abuse clients, including pregnant women, women with dependent 
children, adolescents, and managed care clients. Measures of addiction 
severity and other outcomes are being obtained at admission, discharge 
and post-discharge. These States were granted OMB clearance on data 
collection until September 30, 1999. SAMHSA is requesting an extension 
of OMB approval for one of these States, Utah, to allow them to 
complete data collection. The estimated burden for this extension is 
summarized below.
