[Federal Register Volume 82, Number 65 (Thursday, April 6, 2017)] [Notices] [Pages 16859-16860] From the Federal Register Online [www.thefederalregister.org] [FR Doc No: 2017-06853] ======================================================================= ----------------------------------------------------------------------- NATIONAL SCIENCE FOUNDATION Request for Recommendations for Membership on Directorate and Office Advisory Committees ACTION: Notice. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: The National Science Foundation (NSF) requests recommendations for membership on its scientific and technical Federal advisory committees. Recommendations should consist of the name of the submitting individual, the organization or the affiliation providing the member nomination, the name of the recommended individual, the recommended individual's curriculum vita, an expression of the individual's interest in serving, and the following recommended individual's contact information: employment address, telephone number, FAX number, and email address. Self-recommendations are accepted. If you would like to make a membership recommendation for any of the NSF scientific and technical Federal advisory committees, please send your recommendation to the appropriate committee contact person listed in the chart below. ADDRESSES: The mailing address for the National Science Foundation is 4201 Wilson Boulevard, Arlington, VA 22230. Web links to individual committee information may be found on the NSF Web site: NSF Advisory Committees. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Each Directorate and Office has an external advisory committee that typically meets twice a year to review and provide advice on program management; discuss [[Page 16860]] current issues; and review and provide advice on the impact of policies, programs, and activities in the disciplines and fields encompassed by the Directorate or Office. In addition to Directorate and Office advisory committees, NSF has several committees that provide advice and recommendations on specific topics including: Astronomy and astrophysics; environmental research and education; equal opportunities in science and engineering; cyberinfrastructure; international science and engineering; and business and operations. A primary consideration when formulating committee membership is recognized knowledge, expertise, or demonstrated ability.\1\ Other factors that may be considered are balance among diverse institutions, regions, and groups underrepresented in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Committee members serve for varying term lengths, depending on the nature of the individual committee. Although we welcome the recommendations we receive, we regret that NSF will not be able to acknowledge or respond positively to each person who contacts NSF or has been recommended. NSF intends to publish a similar notice to this on an annual basis. NSF will keep recommendations active for 12 months from the date of receipt. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \1\ Federally registered lobbyists are not eligible for appointment to these Federal advisory committees. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The chart below is a listing of the committees seeking recommendations for membership.
