81–507) set forth NSF’s mission and
purpose:
‘‘To promote the progress of science;
to advance the national health,
prosperity, and welfare; to secure the
national defense. * * * ’’
The Act authorized and directed NSF
to initiate and support:
b Basic scientific research and
research fundamental to the engineering
process;
b Programs to strengthen scientific
and engineering research potential;
b Science and engineering education
programs at all levels and in all the
various fields of science and
engineering;
b Programs that provide a source of
information for policy formulation; and
b Other activities to promote these
ends.
Among Federal agencies, NSF is a
leader in providing the academic
community with advanced
instrumentation needed to conduct
state-of-the-art research and to educate
the next generation of scientists,
engineers and technical workers. The
knowledge generated by these tools
sustains U.S. leadership in science and
engineering (S&E) to drive the U.S.
economy and secure the future. NSF’s
responsibility is to ensure that the
research and education communities
have access to these resources, and to
provide the support needed to utilize
them optimally, and implement timely
upgrades.
The scale of advanced
instrumentation ranges from small
research instruments to shared
resources or facilities that can be used
by entire communities. The demand for
such instrumentation is very high, and
is growing rapidly, along with the pace
of discovery. For major facilities and
shared infrastructure, the need is
particularly high. This trend is expected
to accelerate in the future as increasing
numbers of researchers and educators
rely on such large facilities,
instruments, and databases to provide
the reach to make the next intellectual
leaps.
NSF currently provides support for
facility construction from two accounts:
The Major Research Equipment and
Facility Construction (MREFC) account,
and the Research and Related Activities
(R&RA) account. The MREFC account,
established in FY 1995, is a separate
budget line item that provides an
agency-wide mechanism, permitting
directorates to undertake large facility
projects that exceed 10% of the
Directorate’s annual budget; or roughly
$70M or greater. Smaller projects
continue to be supported from the
R&RA Account.
