equal status with science in the Organic
Act. NSF has always dedicated itself to
providing the leadership and vision
needed to keep the words and ideas
embedded in its mission statement fresh
and up-to-date. Even in today’s rapidly
changing environment, NSF’s core
purpose resonates clearly in everything
it does: Promoting achievement and
progress in science and engineering and
enhancing the potential for research and
education to contribute to the Nation.
While NSF’s vision of the future and the
mechanisms it uses to carry out its
charges have evolved significantly over
the last four decades, its ultimate
mission remains the same.
Use of the Information: The regular
submission of proposals to the
Foundation is part of the collection of
information and is used to help NSF
fulfill this responsibility by initiating
and supporting merit-selected research
and education projects in all the
scientific and engineering disciplines.
NSF receives more than 40,000
proposals annually for new projects,
and makes approximately 10,500 new
awards. Support is made primarily
through grants, contracts, and other
agreements awarded to more than 2,000
colleges, universities, academic
consortia, nonprofit institutions, and
small businesses. The awards are based
mainly on evaluations of proposal merit
submitted to the Foundation (proposal
review is cleared under OMB Control
No. 3145–0060).
The Foundation has a continuing
commitment to monitor the operations
of its information collection to identify
and address excessive reporting burdens
as well as to identify any real or
apparent inequities based on gender,
race, ethnicity, or disability of the
proposed principal investigator(s)/
project director(s) or the co-principal
investigator(s)/co-project director(s).
Burden on the Public: The Foundation
estimates that an average of 120 hours
is expended for each proposal
submitted. An estimated 40,000
proposals are expected during the
course of one year for a total of
4,800,000 public burden hours
annually.
Dated: February 23, 2010.

Foundation.
