SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Abstract The survey obtains the distribution of expenditures incurred by recipients of biomedical research awards from NIH and will provide information on how the NIH award amounts are expended across several major categories. This information, along with wage and price data from other published sources, will be used to generate the Biomedical Research and Development Price Index (BRDPI). The BRDPI is an index of prices paid for the labor, supplies, equipment, and other inputs required to perform the biomedical research the NIH supports in its intramural laboratories and through its awards to extramural organizations. The BRDPI is a vital tool for planning the NIH research budget and analyzing future NIH programs. A survey of award recipients is currently the only means for updating the expenditure category weights that are used to prepare the BRDPI. BEA develops the index for NIH under a reimbursable interagency agreement. This survey will be voluntary. The authority for NIH to collect information for the BRDPI is provided in 45 CFR 75.302 and 75.308. These sections set forth explicit standards for grantees in PO 00000 Frm 00006 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 16943 establishing and maintaining financial management systems and records. Additional authority exists under 45 CFR 75.361 and 75.364, which provide for the retention of such records as well as NIH access to such records. BEA will administer the survey and analyze the survey results on behalf of NIH, through a reimbursable interagency agreement between the two agencies. The authority for the NIH to reimburse BEA for this collection is the Economy Act (31 U.S.C. 1535). BEA possesses programmatic authority to conduct this collection under 15 U.S.C. 1525 (first paragraph). NIH’s support for this research is consistent with its duties and authority under 42 U.S.C. 282. The information provided by the respondents will be held confidential and be used for exclusively statistical purposes. This pledge of confidentiality is made under the Confidential Information Protection and Statistical Efficiency Act of 2018 (CIPSEA) (44 U.S.C. 3572). This section provides that ‘‘data or information acquired by an agency under a pledge of confidentiality and for exclusively statistical purposes shall be used by officers, employees, or agents of the agency exclusively for statistical purposes. Data or information acquired by an agency under a pledge of confidentiality for exclusively statistical purposes shall not be disclosed by an agency in identifiable form, for any use other than an exclusively statistical purpose, except with the informed consent of the respondent.’’ Responses will be kept confidential and will not be disclosed in identifiable form to anyone, other than employees or agents of BEA or agents of NIH, without prior written permission of the person filing the report. By law, each employee as well as each agent is subject to a jail term of up to 5 years, a fine of up to $250,000, or both for disclosing to the public any identifiable information that is reported about a business or institution. Section 515 of the Treasury and General Government Appropriations Act for FY2001 (Pub. L. 106–554) (the Information Quality Guidelines) applies to this survey. The collection and use of this information comply with all applicable information quality guidelines, i.e., those of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), DOC, BEA, and NIH. II. Method of Collection A survey with a cover letter that includes a brief description of, and rationale for, the survey will be sent by email to potential respondents by the first week of August 2023, 2024, and E:\FR\FM\21MRN1.SGM 21MRN1
