Title: Conflict of Interest Disclosure
for Nonfederal Government Individuals
Who Are Candidates To Conduct Peer

Type of Request: Regular submission
(renewal of a currently approved
information collection).
Number of Respondents: 320.
Average Hours per Response: 30
minutes.
Burden Hours: 160.
Needs and Uses: The Office of
Management and Budget’s Final
Information Quality Bulletin for Peer
Review (‘‘Peer Review Bulletin’’ or PRB)
establishes minimum peer review
standards for influential scientific
information that Federal agencies intend
to disseminate. The PRB also directs
federal agencies to adopt or adapt the
National Academy of Sciences (NAS)
policy for evaluating conflicts of interest
when selecting peer reviewers who are
not Federal government employees
(Federal employees are subject to
Federal ethics requirements which
address conflict of interest). For peer
review purposes, the term ‘‘conflict of
interest’’ means any financial or other
interest which conflicts with the service
of the individual because it could: (1)
Significantly impair the individual’s
objectivity; or (2) create an unfair
competitive advantage for any person or
organization.
NOAA has adapted the NAS policy
and developed three confidential
conflict of interest disclosure forms
which will be used to examine
prospective reviewers’ potential
financial conflicts and other interests
that could impair objectivity or create
an unfair advantage. The forms are for
peer reviewers of studies related to
government regulation; peer reviewers
of any other influential scientific
information subject to the Peer Review
Bulletin; and potential reviewers of
scientific laboratories. The forms
include questions about employment as
well as investment and property
interests, and research funding. All
three forms also require the submission
of a curriculum vitae.
Affected Public: Individuals or
households.
Frequency: On occasion.
Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary.
