SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title of Collection: Request for
Comment regarding Common Disclosure
Forms for the Biographical Sketch and
Current and Pending (Other) Support.
OMB Approval Number: 3145–NEW.
Expiration Date of Approval: Not
applicable.
Type of Request: Intent to seek
approval to establish a common
disclosure forms information collection
for three years.
I. Background
Section 4(b) of NSPM–33 directs that
‘‘research funding agencies shall require
the disclosure of information related to
potential conflicts of interest and
commitment from participants in the
Federally funded R&D enterprise . . .
The appropriate disclosure requirement
varies depending on the individual’s
role in the United States R&D
enterprise.’’ Section 4(b)(vi) directs that
‘‘agencies should standardize forms for
initial disclosures as well as annual
updates, . . . and should provide clear
instructions to accompany these forms
and to minimize any associated
administrative burden.’’
Over the past several months, the
NSTC Research Security Subcommittee
has worked to develop consistent
disclosure requirements from senior
personnel, as well as to develop
proposed common disclosure forms for
the Biographical Sketch and Current
and Pending (Other) Support sections of
an application for Federal research and
development (R&D) grants or
cooperative agreements. The purpose of
the Biographical Sketch is to assess how
well qualified the individual, team, or
organization is to conduct the proposed
activities. The purpose of Current and
Pending (Other) Support is to assess the
capacity of the individual to carry out
the research as proposed and to help
identify any potential scientific and
PO 00000
Frm 00066
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
budgetary overlap/duplication, as well
as overcommitment with the project
being proposed.
These common forms are intended to
clarify what is expected of senior
personnel applying for R&D funding
from Federal research funding agencies.
Variations among research agencies will
be limited to cases: (a) where required
by statute or regulation; (b) where more
stringent protections are necessary for
protection of R&D that is classified,
export-controlled, or otherwise legally
protected; or (c) for other compelling
reasons consistent with individual
agency authorities and as coordinated
through the NSTC.
As stated in the NSPM–33
Implementation Guidance, ‘‘the goal of
these common forms and accompanying
instructions is to ensure that applying
for awards from any Federal research
funding agency will require disclosing
the same information in the same
manner, to increase clarity and reduce
administrative burden on the research
community. In some cases, research
agencies may adapt the forms and
instructions, where required by their
legal authorities. Such common forms
also will allow the research community
to identify and point out where greater
clarity may be needed.’’
Agencies may develop agency- or
program-specific data elements and
instructions, if necessary, to meet
programmatic requirements, although
agencies will be instructed to minimize
the degree to which they supplement
the common forms. Modification and/or
supplementation of these common
forms will require clearance by OMB/
OIRA under the PRA process.
These common forms are intended to
replace forms/formats currently used by
agencies for these sections of
applications, thereby increasing the
consistency of disclosure forms and
reducing administrative burden.
II. Invitation to Comment
The following documents are
available for review and comment on
the NSF website (see https://
www.nsf.gov/bfa/dias/policy/nstc_

a. A common Biographical Sketch
form, including data elements and

b. A common Current and Pending

and
c. An excel spreadsheet that

well as their data attributes.

1978. This is the required notice of a
requested permit modification.
DATES: Interested parties are invited to
submit written data, comments, or
views with respect to this permit
application by September 30, 2022.
Permit applications may be inspected by
interested parties at the Permit Office,

certain geographic areas as requiring
special protection. The regulations
establish such a permit system to
designate Antarctic Specially Protected
Areas.
Description of Permit Modification
Requested: The Foundation issued a
permit (ACA 2021–004) to Grant Ballard
on September 23, 2020. The issued
permit allows the applicant to engage in
take, harmful interference, enter
Antarctic Specially Protected Areas
(ASPAs), and import samples into the
USA in association with research on the
role of environmental factors on
foraging, diet, growth, and survival of
Adelie penguins (Pygoscelis adeliae).
Research activities include installing
weighbridges, resighting banded birds,
and following birds through incubation
and chick-rearing until late January. The
applicant and agents attach logging and
tracking devices on breeding adults and
collect fecal samples from adults and
chicks during the brooding and
guarding stage, then attach long-term
GPS-Argos tags and geolocating dive
recorders on adult penguins. To survey
the large colonies at Cape Royds and
Cape Crozier in a timely manner, the
applicant and agents employ multiple,
self- and collectively-aware remotely
piloted aircraft (RPAS) simultaneously.
Now the applicant proposes a
modification to the permit to collect
blood samples (1–2 drops each) from
penguins already undergoing other
handling, sampling, or instrumentation.
The applicant proposes to take up to
220 blood samples from fledglings, 120
blood samples from chicks, and 130
blood samples from adult Adelie
penguins per year. The applicant
proposes to take up to an additional 30
feather samples from fledglings, and 20
feather samples from adults per year
over feather samples already permitted.
The applicant proposes to take up to an
additional 240 opportunistic or cloacal
swab fecal samples per year.
Additionally, the applicant proposes to
tag up to 60 chicks per year with small
PO 00000
Frm 00067
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
T-bar anchor tags which will be
removed at the end of the rearing
season. The applicant also proposes to
disturb up to 1000 penguins by
surrounding a penguin subcolony with
a plastic fence for the continuation of a
long term weighbridge study to evaluate
foraging trip duration, adult condition,
and food delivery.
Location: ASPA 121, Cape Royds,
Ross Island; ASPA 124, Cape Crozier,
Ross Island; ASPA 105, Beaufort Island;
Cape Bird (outside ASPA boundary).
Dates: November 1, 2022 to February
15, 2025.
