SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: FY 2007 and FY 2009 Survey of
Science and Engineering Research
Facilities.
Type of Request: Intent to seek
approval to reinstate an information
collection for three years.
Proposed Project: The National
Science Foundation Survey of Science
and Engineering Research Facilities is a
Congressionally mandated (Pub. L. 99–
159), biennial survey that has been
conducted since 1986. The survey
collects data on cyber infrastructure and
on the amount, condition, and costs of
the physical facilities used to conduct
science and engineering research. It was
expected by Congress that this survey
would provide the data necessary to
describe the status and needs of science
and engineering research facilities and
to formulate appropriate solutions to
documented needs. During the FY 2003
and FY 2005 survey cycles, data were
collected from a population of
approximately 475 research-performing
colleges and universities. This survey
population was supplemented with
approximately 190 nonprofit biomedical
research institutions receiving research
support from the National Institutes of
Health. Beginning with the FY 2003
cycle, a new section was added to the
survey requesting information on the
computing and networking capacity at
the surveyed institutions, an
increasingly important part of the
infrastructure for science and
engineering research. Other important
changes include updating the
networking and computing section,
based on technological changes that
may occur.
Use of the Information: Analysis of
the Facilities Survey data will provide
updated information on the status of
scientific and engineering research
facilities and capabilities. The
information can be used by Federal
policy makers, planners, and budget
analysts in making policy decisions, as
well as by institutional academic
officials, the scientific/engineering
establishment, and state agencies and
rmajette on PROD1PC64 with NOTICES
legislatures that fund universities.
Burden on the Public: Based on
pretests, the time to complete the
research space section of the survey
(Part 1) ranged from 10 to 85 hours with
VerDate Aug<31>2005 15:11 Jul 30, 2007 Jkt 211001
an average of 40 hours. The time to
complete the computing and networking
section of the survey (Part 2) averaged
60 minutes. Therefore, in total, the time
per academic institution to complete the
survey is expected to average
approximately 41 hours. Assuming a
94% response rate, this would result in
an estimated burden of 18,368 hours in
FY 2007 and a similar burden in FY
2009. [(.94 response rate × 477
institutions) × 41 hours = 18,368].
Because biomedical research
organizations generally are not as large,
diverse or complex as colleges and
universities, there is substantially less
variation in the survey completion time.
On average, completion time per
biomedical research organization for
Part 1 of the survey was 4 hours. For
Part 2 of the survey, average completion
time per biomedical research
organization was 1 hour. Therefore, in
total, the time per biomedical research
organization to complete the survey is
expected to average approximately 5
hours. Assuming a 94% response rate,
this would result in an estimated
burden of 895 hours in FY 2007 and a
similar burden in FY 2009. [(.94
response rate × institutions)] × 5 hours
= 895]
Total burden hours for academic
institutions and biomedical institutions
are 19,263.
