Frm 00054
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

www.fastlane.nsf.gov/honawards/. Firsttime users must register on the Fastlane
Web site using the link found in the
upper right-hand corner above the ‘‘Log
In’’ box before accessing any of the
honorary award categories.
Use of the Information: The
Foundation has the following honorary
award programs:
• President’s National Medal of
Science. Statutory authority for the
President’s National Medal of Science is
contained in 42 U.S.C. 1881 (Pub. L. 86–
209), which established the award and
stated that ‘‘(t)he President shall * * *
award the Medal on the
recommendations received from the
National Academy of Sciences or on the
basis of such other information and
evidence as * * * appropriate.’’
Subsequently, Executive Order 10961
specified procedures for the Award by
establishing a National Medal of Science
Committee which would ‘‘receive
recommendations made by any other
nationally representative scientific or
engineering organization.’’ On the basis
of these recommendations, the
Committee was directed to select its
candidates and to forward its
recommendations to the President.
In 1962, to comply with these
directives, the Committee initiated a
solicitation form letter to invite these
nominations. In 1979, the Committee
initiated a nomination form as an
attachment to the solicitation letter. A
slightly modified version of the
nomination form was used in 1980.
The Committee established the
following guidelines for selection of
candidates:
1. Principal criterion: The total impact
of an individual’s work on the current
state of physical, biological,
mathematical, engineering or social and
behavioral sciences.
2. Achievements of an unusually
significant nature in relation to the
potential effects on the development of
scientific thought.
3. Unusually distinguished service in
the general advancement of science and
engineering, especially when
accompanied by substantial
contributions to the content of science.
Recognition by peers within the
scientific community.
4. Contributions to innovation and
industry.
5. Influence on education through
publications, teaching activities,
outreach, mentoring, etc.
6. Must be a U.S. citizen or permanent
resident who has applied for
citizenship.
