NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION
Agency Information Collection Activities: Comment Request; EHR
Impact Database
AGENCY: National Science Foundation.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The National Science Foundation (NSF) is announcing plans to
request renewal of this collection, the EHR (Directorate for Education
and Human Resources) Database. In accordance with the requirement of
Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, we are
providing opportunity for public comment on this action. After
obtaining and considering public comment, NSF will prepare the
submission requesting that OMB clearance of this collection for no
longer than 3 years.
SEND COMMENTS TO: Gail A. McHenry, Reports Clearance Officer, National
Science Foundation, 4201 Wilson Boulevard, Suite 245, Arlington,
Virginia 22230 or send email to gmchenry@nsf.gov. Written comments
should be received within 60 days of the date of this notice.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Mrs. McHenry on (703) 306-1125 x2010 or send email to gmchenry@nsf.gov.
Copies of specific data collection instruments are available from Mrs.
McHenry.
Comments are invited on (a) whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of
the Agency, including whether the information shall have practical
utility; (b) the accuracy of the Agency's estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information; (c) ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information on respondents, including
through the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.
Proposed Renewal Project: The EHR Impact Database was established
in 1995 to integrate all available information pertaining to the NSF's
Education and Training portfolio. Under a generic survey clearance (OMB
3145-0136) data from the NSF administrative database are incorporated
and additional information is obtained through initiative-, divisional-
, and program-specific data collections.
Use of the Information: This information is required for effective
administration, program monitoring and evaluation, and for measuring
attainment of NSF's program goals, as required by the Government
Performance and Results Act (GPRA).
Burden on the Public: The total estimate for this collection is
50,000 annual burden hours. This figure is based on the previous 3
years of collecting information under this clearance. The average
annual reporting burden is between 2 and 50 hours per `respondent' who
may be an individual or a project site representing groups.
Dated: April 27, 1998.
Gail A. McHenry,
NSF Reports Clearance Officer.
