[[Page 36322]]

of the NIST Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) Program for 
both Gaithersburg and Boulder locations. The information is submitted 
by the university on behalf of the student applicants. The student 
information is utilized by laboratory program coordinators and 
technical evaluators to determine student eligibility, select students 
to appropriate research projects, which match their needs, interests, 
and academic preparation, and ultimately, make offers to participate in 
the program. The information includes: Student name, host institution, 
email address/contact information, permanent address, choice of SURF-
specific location (Boulder and/or Gaithersburg), class standing, first- 
and second-choice NIST laboratories/projects they wish to apply to, 
previous SURF participation/mentor identification, academic major/
minor, current overall GPA, need for housing and gender (for housing 
purposes only), special skills (laboratory, computer programming etc.), 
availability dates, resume, personal statement of commitment and 
research interests, two letters of recommendation, academic 
transcripts, ability to verify U.S. citizenship or permanent legal 
residency, acknowledgement of background check, and requirements for 
REAL ID Act.

II. Method of Collection

    The Student Application Information form will be available on the 
web. The collection is currently limited to paper form and is required 
to be scanned and submitted electronically.

III. Data

    OMB Control Number: 0693-0042.
    Form Number(s) None.
    Type of Review: Regular submission (revision of an approved 
information collection).
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 650.
    Estimated Time per Response: 30 minutes.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 325.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost to Public: $0.

IV. Request for Comments

    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 
(including hours and cost) of the proposed collection of information; 
(c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the 
collection of information on respondents, including through the use of 
automated collection techniques or other forms of information 
technology.

collection; they also will become a matter of public record.
