The Dental Reimbursement Program (DRP) and the Community Based Dental Partnership Program (CBDPP) under Part F of the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP) offer funding to accredited dental education programs to support the education and training of oral health providers in HIV oral health care and reimbursement for the provision of oral health services for people eligible for the RWHAP. Institutions eligible for the RWHAP DRP and CBDPP are accredited schools of dentistry and other accredited dental education programs, such as dental hygiene programs or those sponsored by a school of dentistry, a hospital, or a public or private institution that offers postdoctoral training in the specialties of dentistry, advanced education in general dentistry, or a dental general practice residency. The RWHAP DRP Application for the Notice of Funding Opportunity includes the Dental Services Report (DSR) that applicants use to apply for funding of non-reimbursed costs incurred in providing oral health care to patients with HIV and to report annual program data. The form is also used by CBDPP recipients to report on services rendered, patients served, and partnerships as an annual data report. The DSR collects data on program information, client demographics, oral health services, funding, and training. It also requests applicants to provide narrative descriptions of their services and facilities, as well as their linkages and how they collaborate with community-based providers of oral health services.

Sections 1.1411, 1.1412, 1.1415 and 1.1416 and Pole Attachment Access Requirements and Dispute Resolution Requirements

Key Information

Abstract

The Commission adopted a comprehensive regulatory scheme to ensure just and reasonable rates, terms, and conditions of access to utility infrastructure (usually called “poles or “pole attachments”), with a robust dispute resolution process when the parties are not able to agree on terms. The new Order revised 47 CFR § 1.1411 to (1) require communications attachers to provide advance written notice to utilities of larger pole attachment orders that are likely associated with new broadband deployment projects and impose a meet-and-confer requirement following the notice for a subset of those orders; (2) establish a new timeline for processing large pole attachment requests; and (3) improve the pole attachment timelines by requiring utilities and existing attachers to promptly notify new attachers if they cannot meet survey and make-ready deadlines, allowing new attachers to use self-help for estimates, and prohibiting utility-imposed limits on application size and frequency that have the effect of restricting the number of pole attachments that attachers may seek in a given timeframe. The Order also revised 47 CFR § 1.1412 to expedite the contractor approval process by requiring utilities to respond to a request to add contractors to a utility-approved list within 30 days of receiving the request

Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (Regulation C)

Key Information

Abstract

The Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA) requires certain depository institutions and for-profit nondepository institutions to collect, report, and disclose data about originations and purchases of mortgage loans, as well as mortgage loan applications that do not result in originations (for example, applications that are denied or withdrawn). The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s (Bureau) Regulation C, 12 CFR part 1003, implements HMDA. The purpose of the information collection is: (i) to help determine whether financial institutions are serving the housing needs of their communities; (ii) to assist public officials in distributing public-sector investment so as to attract private investment to areas where it is needed; and (iii) to assist in identifying possible discriminatory lending patterns and enforcing antidiscrimination statutes. The information collection will also assist the Bureau’s examiners, and examiners of other federal supervisory agencies, in determining that the financial institutions they supervise comply with applicable provisions of HMDA.

Ombudsman Inquiry/Request Instrument

Key Information

Abstract

The Office of the Procurement Ombudsman (OPO) is currently tracking and processing vendor inquiries and complaints using a composite of methods including email, Google Sheets, and MS Word Docs which makes it difficult to share, collaborate, centrally store data, effectively track information, as well as producing the necessary analytics (i.e. trend analysis) required for reporting to GSA senior leadership. As a result, the OPO finds it more difficult to help deconflict issues between GSA vendors and the acquisition workforce, as well as producing the necessary analytics required to improve acquisition processes. The Inquiry/Request web site will standardize and automate the collection of the data thereby reducing issues associated with manual receipt and processing of email and telephone calls.

Tobacco Retailer Training Programs

Key Information

Abstract

FDA intends to issue regulations establishing standards for approved tobacco retailer training programs. In the interim, FDA published a guidance document which is intended to assist tobacco retailers to voluntarily implement effective training programs for employees. Until FDA promulgates regulations, the agency intends to use the lower maximum civil money penalties schedule for all retailers who violate the restriction of the sale and distribution of cigarettes and smokeless tobacco products, whether or not they have implemented a training program. FDA may consider further reducing the civil money penalty for retailers who have implemented a training program. Retailers who have received a Complaint for Civil Money Penalties or No-Tobacco Sale Order and who wish to submit evidence that they have a training program in place, for purposes of settlement negotiations only, may do so when filing an Answer to the Complaint.
