SUMMARY:HHS Tribal Consultation on Draft Tribal and Tribal Epidemiology Center Data Access Policy
DESCRIPTION:Dear Tribal Leader Letter\nDraft HHS TTDA Policy \nThe U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) invites Tribal leader feedback and recommendations on its draft HHS Tribal and Tribal Epidemiology Center Data Access (TTDA) Policy . The policy outlines the types of data to be made available to Tribes and Tribal Epidemiology Centers (TECs) acting in their capacities as public health authorities. It also serves to establish HHS-wide expectations for Divisions responding to Tribal and TEC data requests covered by the policy\, including through the development of Division-specific implementation protocols. \nThe draft TTDA Policy was developed based on extensive Tribal input received during HHS consultations held in October 2022\, as well as internal analyses of Division data system requirements and legal considerations. Feedback provided by Tribal leaders on the enclosed draft policy will assist in the preparation of the final policy later this year. Comments are welcome on all aspects of the draft policy.

Tribal governments\, ISPs\, consumers\, and other stakeholders can help verify the accuracy of the data shown on the map by filing challenges. \nTo assist Tribal entities with submitting challenges\, the FCC will host four Office Hours sessions throughout February. You may register to attend one or more of these sessions by emailing Tribal.Events@fcc.gov. \n\nTuesday February 6\, 2024\, 4-5:30 p.m. EST – Availability Challenges\nTuesday February 13\, 2024\, 4-5:30 p.m. EST – Fabric Location Challenges\nTuesday February 20\, 2024\, 4-5:30 p.m. EST – Availability Challenges\nTuesday February 27\, 2024\, 4-5:30 p.m. EST – Fabric Location Challenges\n\nFCC staff will offer tips and guidance on submitting each type of challenge and will be available to answer questions and offer hands-on support. \nThe linked “Starter Guides” provide step-by-step instructions for filing bulk challenges\, including links to other relevant resources. \n\nSubmitting Bulk Fixed Availability Challenge Data: https://www.fcc.gov/sites/default/files/Availabiltiy-Challenge-Starter-Kit.pdf\nSubmitting Bulk Fabric Location Challenge Data: https://www.fcc.gov/sites/default/files/Fabric-Challenge-Starter-Kit.pdf\n\nYou can learn more about the National Broadband Map and the FCC’s Broadband Data Collection by visiting:  www.fcc.gov/broadbanddata.

This update would succeed the existing Climate Action Plan\, issued on October 7\, 2021\, and fulfill direction laid out in section 211 of Executive Order 14008\, “Tackling the Climate Crisis at Home and Abroad;” section 5(d) of E.O. 14030\, “Climate-Related Financial Risk;” and section 503 of E.O.14057\, “Catalyzing Clean Energy Industries And Jobs Through Federal Sustainability.”\nThe update\, renamed to “Climate Adaptation Plan” (CAP)\, is expected to evaluate exposure to climate hazards and drivers of change across the full suite of DOI buildings and employees\, and to the lands\, waters\, and cultural and natural resources it is responsible for stewarding. The CAP will also outline actions to address the threats these exposures present—through investments and changes to policy\, budgeting\, grant funding\, and training.\nInterior is working with Tribal Nations and Alaska Natives\, as well as the Native Hawaiian Community and Indigenous people of the U.S. Territories\, on a range of climate adaptation and resilience efforts. The Department also recognizes that Tribal Nations and Alaska Natives have shared input during recent consultations that can inform the development of the CAP. Interior will reference this input and incorporate it into the development of this plan.\nThe Department is seeking your input on several topics related to the potential content of the CAP\, including: \n\nWhat data and knowledge sources should we consider as we assess climate risk?\nRecognizing that all lands\, waters\, and those who inhabit them are important\, are there particular Interior-managed resources that hold special significance for Tribal Nations and/or Alaska Natives and should be considered for prioritization in climate adaptation planning?\nHow can the Department address exposure to climate hazards for these resources that hold special cultural or natural significance?\nHow can the Department incorporate climate resilience and accessibility for Tribal communities into its grants and funding opportunities?\nWhat barriers prevent the implementation of climate adaptation and resilience efforts on Tribal lands and in Tribal communities?\n\nThe Office of Policy Analysis will conduct four Tribal listening sessions listed below and will accept oral and written comments. Please register in advance for any listening session you plan to attend. After registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting. Please note that these Tribal listening sessions will be closed to the press and the public to protect confidential information that may be discussed during the sessions. \nThe Department welcomes your written comments\, which should be submitted by email to\nryan_richards@ios.doi.gov by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on March 30\, 2024. If you have any\nquestions\, please contact Ryan Richards at ryan_richards@ios.doi.gov.
