SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Department of Defense Suicide Event Report; DD Form 2996; OMB Control Number 0720–0058. Needs and Uses: This data system will provide integrated enterprise and survey data to be used for direct reporting of suicide events and ongoing population-based health surveillance activities. These surveillance activities include the systematic collection, analysis, interpretation, and reporting of outcome-specific data for use in planning, implementation, evaluation, and prevention of suicide behaviors within the Department of Defense. Data is collected on individuals with reportable suicide and self-harm behaviors (to include suicide attempts, self-harm behaviors, and suicidal ideation). All other DoD active and reserve military personnel records collected without evidence of reportable suicide and self-harm behaviors will exist as a control group. Records are integrated from enterprise systems and created and revised by civilian and military personnel in the performance of their duties. Affected Public: Individuals and households. Annual Burden Hours: 260.5. Number of Respondents: 1,563. Responses per Respondent: 1. Annual Responses: 1,563. Average Burden per Response: 10 minutes. Frequency: As required. Form completers are behavioral and medical health providers, military unit leadership or their designees. The DoDSER form is used to collect information regarding suicide events of military service members. Form completers collect information from military personnel records, military medical records, enterprise data systems within the DoD and persons khammond on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with NOTICES FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:41 May 17, 2019 Jkt 247001 (respondent) familiar with the event details.

The rapid progress in this field promises profound impacts in the coming decades on scientific discovery and technological innovation. In competitive terms, QIS is creating potentially transformative opportunities and technically complex, urgent challenges for the Nation, as growing international interest and investments fuel accelerating global activity in quantum science and technology. These opportunities and challenges demand a long-term, large-scale commitment of U.S. scientific and technological resources to multi-institutional, multidisciplinary efforts that are commensurate with world leadership in this pivotal field. This has been recognized on the Federal level with the recent issuance of a National Strategic Overview for Quantum Information Science in September 2018 1 and the subsequent enactment of the National Quantum Initiative Act in December 2018.2 DOE, with its unparalleled breadth and depth of activity as the Nation’s leading supporter of basic research in the physical sciences, and drawing on the unique expertise and capabilities of the DOE National Laboratory complex, has key resources and infrastructure that are integral to this strategic and targeted U.S. initiative. DOE SC’s activities in QIS are driven by its mission needs and connect to the specific foci of its subsidiary program offices, and will be enhanced by strategic partnerships and collaborations among SC program offices and between SC and other Federal agencies. The U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Science (SC) hereby announces its intent to issue a FOA seeking to establish two or more multidisciplinary Quantum Information Science Centers to perform research to address the opportunities and challenges referred to above and described in the referenced documents. This is a Notice of Intent (NOI) only. DOE–SC may issue a FOA as described herein, may issue a FOA that is significantly different than the FOA described herein, or DOE–SC may not issue a FOA at all. In addition, DOE–SC seeks input from stakeholders regarding the potential FOA, including SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 1 National Science and Technology Council publication, https://www.whitehouse.gov/wpcontent/uploads/2018/09/National-StrategicOverview-for-Quantum-Information-Science.pdf. 2 Public Law 115–368, https://www.congress.gov/ 115/bills/hr6227/BILLS-115hr6227enr.pdf. PO 00000 Frm 00029 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 the topic areas, organization, requirements, review criteria, and assessment process of prospective QIS Centers. The information received in response to this RFI will inform and be considered by the Office of Science in program planning and development. Please be aware that this notice (NOI and RFI) is not a Funding Opportunity Announcement, a Request for Proposal, or other form of solicitation, or bid of DOE to fund potential research, development, planning, centers, or other activity. Notice of Intent: The Office of Science (SC) intends to issue a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) entitled ‘‘Quantum Information Science Centers’’ in FY 2020, subject to the availability of appropriated funds. This FOA will seek applications for two or more DOE QIS Centers (referred to as ‘‘Centers’’) to support the National Quantum Initiative enacted by Congress in December 2018, and to accelerate the transformational advances in basic science and quantum-based technology. The purpose of these Centers will be to push the current state-of-the-art science and technology toward realizing the full potential of quantum-based applications, from computing, to communication, to sensing. The interdisciplinary nature of the field, the reliance on complex, sophisticated, and precise physical arrangements in order to observe and utilize quantum behavior, and the potential for substantial economic consequences are the major drivers of the National Quantum Initiative. The SC QIS Centers, coupled with a robust core research portfolio stewarded by the individual SC programs, will create the ecosystem needed to foster and facilitate advancement of QIS with public benefits in national security, economic competitiveness, and leadership in scientific discovery. The Centers will require highly collaborative research teams, spanning multiple scientific and engineering disciplines. It is anticipated that all types of domestic entities, including DOE/National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) Federally Funded Research and Development Center (FFRDC) contractors, will be eligible to apply as prime applicants, with the exception of other Federal agencies, non-DOE/NNSA FFRDC contractors, and certain nonprofit organizations engaged in lobbying. By bringing together top talent from across the full spectrum of research and development (R&D) performers— including universities, private industry, non-profits, and National Laboratories— the Centers will serve as world-leading E:\FR\FM\20MYN1.SGM 20MYN1
