Proposed Project
The Science and Technology Centers
(STC): Integrative Partnerships Program
supports innovation in the integrative
conduct of research, education and
knowledge transfer. Science and
Technology Centers build intellectual
and physical infrastructure within and
between disciplines, weaving together
knowledge creation, knowledge
integration, and knowledge transfer.
STCs conduct world-class research
through partnerships of academic
institutions, national laboratories,
industrial organizations, and/or other
public/private entities. New knowledge

thus created is meaningfully linked to
society.
STCs enable and foster excellent
education, integrate research and
education, and create bonds between
learning and inquiry so that discovery
and creativity more fully support the
learning process. STCs capitalize on
diversity through participation in center
activities and demonstrate leadership in
the involvement of groups
underrepresented in science and
engineering.
Centers selected will be required to
submit annual reports on progress and
plans, which will be used as a basis for
performance review and determining
the level of continued funding. To
support this review and the
management of a Center, STCs will be
required to develop a set of management
and performance indicators for
submission annually to NSF via an NSF
evaluation technical assistance
contractor. These indicators are both
quantitative and descriptive and may
include, for example, the characteristics
of center personnel and students;
sources of financial support and in-kind
support; expenditures by operational
component; characteristics of industrial
and/or other sector participation;
research activities; education activities;
knowledge transfer activities; patents,
licenses; publications; degrees granted
to students involved in Center activities;
descriptions of significant advances and
other outcomes of the STC effort. Part of
this reporting will take the form of a
database which will be owned by the
institution and eventually made
available to an evaluation contractor.
This database will capture specific
information to demonstrate progress
towards achieving the goals of the
program. Such reporting requirements
will be included in the cooperative
agreement which is binding between the
academic institution and the NSF.
Each Center’s annual report will
address the following categories of
activities: (1) Research, (2) education,
(3) knowledge transfer, (4) partnerships,
(5) diversity, (6) management and (7)
budget issues.
For each of the categories the report
will describe overall objectives for the
year, problems the Center has
encountered in making progress towards
goals, anticipated problems in the
following year, and specific outputs and
outcomes.
Use of the Information: NSF will use
the information to continue funding of
the Centers, and to evaluate the progress
of the program.
Estimate of Burden: 100 hours per
center for twelve centers for a total of
1200 hours.

Commission.
ACTION: NUREG; issuance.
AGENCY:
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) is issuing NUREG–
1530, Revision 1, ‘‘Reassessment of
NRC’s Dollar Per Person-Rem
Conversion Factor Policy.’’ This
revision to NUREG–1530 updates the

and establishes a method for keeping
this factor up-to-date. The NRC uses the
dollar per person-rem conversion factor
in cost-benefit analyses to determine the
monetary valuation of the consequences
associated with radiological exposure

multiplying a value of a statistical life
(VSL) coefficient by a cancer mortality
risk coefficient.
