The Department of Commerce plans to submit an information collection request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) regarding the NIST Center for Neutron Research (NCNR) Information Management System and Summer School Application. This request seeks to extend a current information collection, requiring input from 2,000 respondents, each providing an average of one hour of their time. The information collected is used for tasks like registering NCNR users, collecting scientific experiment proposals, allocating experimental resources, and managing research results. The public, particularly scientific personnel using the NCNR facility, is invited to comment on this proposal within 30 days of publication.
Simple Explanation
The Department of Commerce wants to collect information from 2,000 people to help operate a special research center where scientists do experiments. They are asking if people think this is a good idea and want to hear back in 30 days.
