National Science Foundation Information Quality Guidelines; Draft 
Notice and Request for Comment

AGENCY: National Science Foundation.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) issued government-
wide guidelines under section 515 of the Treasury and General 
Government Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 2001 (Public Law 106-554) 
to ensure and maximize the quality, objectivity, utility and integrity 
of information disseminated by Federal agencies. OMB's guidelines were 
published in the Federal Register on September 28, 2001 (66 FR 49718), 
and updated on January 3, 2002 (67 FR 369). A supplemental version of 
the guidelines was published in the Federal Register February 22, 2002 
(67 FR 8452). Each Federal agency is responsible for issuing its own 
section 515 guidelines. As a result, The National Science Foundation 
has developed corresponding information quality guidelines. The full 
draft guidelines will be found at the National Science Foundation's Web 
site at 
http://www.nsf.gov/home/pubinfo/infoqual.htm on May 1, 2002.
