Awards.
OMB Number: 3145–NEW.
Expiration Date of Approval: Not

approval to establish an information
collection.
Overview of this Information
Collection: NSF and the Directorate for
Geosciences (GEO) have long supported
basic research in scientific and
engineering disciplines necessary to
understand natural hazards and extreme
events. The Prediction of and Resilience
against Extreme Events (PREEVENTS)
program is one element of the NSF-wide
Risk and Resilience activity, which has
the overarching goal of improving
predictability and risk assessment, and
increasing resilience, in order to reduce
the impact of extreme events on our life,

society, and economy. PREEVENTS
provides an additional mechanism to
support research and related activities
that will improve our understanding of
the fundamental processes underlying
natural hazards and extreme events in
the geosciences.
PREEVENTS is intended to encourage
new scientific directions in the domains
of natural hazards and extreme events.
PREEVENTS will consider proposals for
conferences that will foster
development of interdisciplinary or
multidisciplinary communities required
to address complex questions
surrounding natural hazards and
extreme events. Such proposals are
called PREEVENTS Track 1 proposals.
In addition to standard NSF annual
and final report requirements, PIs for all
PREEVENTS Track 1 awards will be
required to submit to NSF a public
report that summarizes the conference
activities, attendance, and outcomes;
describes scientific and/or technical
challenges that remain to be overcome
in the areas discussed during the
conference; and identifies specific next
steps to advance knowledge in the areas
of natural hazards and extreme events
that were considered during the
conference. These reports will be made
publicly available via the NSF Web site,
and are intended to foster nascent
interdisciplinary or multidisciplinary
communities and to enable growth of
new scientific directions.
Use of the Information: NSF will use
the information to understand and
evaluate the outcomes of the conference,
to foster growth of new scientific
communities, and to evaluate the
progress of the PREEVENTS program.
Estimate of Burden: 40 hours per
award for 5–10 conference awards for a
total of 200–400 hours.
Respondents: Universities and
Colleges; Non-profit, non-academic
organizations; For-profit organizations;
NSF-funded Federally Funded Research
and Development Centers (FFRDCs).
Estimated Number of Responses per
Report: One from each five to ten Track
1 awardees.
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 of the proposed
collection of information; (c) ways to
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity
of the information on respondents,
including through the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology; and (d) ways to
minimize the burden of the collection of
