SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title of Collection: Higher Education
Research and Development Survey.
OMB Approval Number: 3145–0100.
Expiration Date of Current Approval:
July 31, 2025.
Type of Request: Intent to seek
approval to extend an information
collection for three years.
Abstract: Established within NSF by
the America COMPETES
Reauthorization Act of 2010 § 505,
codified in the NSF Act of 1950, as
amended, the National Center for
Science and Engineering Statistics
(NCSES)—one of 13 principal federal
statistical agencies—serves as a central
Federal clearinghouse for the collection,
interpretation, analysis, and
dissemination of objective data on
science, engineering, technology, and
research and development for use by
practitioners, researchers, policymakers,
and the public.
The Higher Education Research and
Development (R&D) Survey (formerly
known as the Survey of R&D
Expenditures at Universities and
Colleges) originated in fiscal year (FY)
1954 and has been conducted annually
since FY 1972. The survey represents
one facet of the research and
development component of NCSES’s
statistical program, which also includes
R&D surveys on the business, federal
government, higher education, state
government, and nonprofit sectors.
Use of the Information: The proposed
project will continue the annual survey
cycle for three years. The Higher
Education R&D Survey will provide
continuity of statistics on R&D
expenditures by source of funding, type
of R&D (basic research, applied
research, or development), and field of
research, with separate data requested
on research equipment by field. Further
breakdowns are collected on funds
passed through to subrecipients and
funds received as a subrecipient, and on
R&D expenditures by field from specific
federal agency sources. The survey also
requests total R&D expenditures funded

Jkt 265001

from foreign sources, R&D within an
institution’s medical school, clinical
trial expenditures, R&D by type of
funding mechanism (contracts vs.
grants), and R&D by cost category
(salaries, equipment, software, etc.). In
addition, the survey requests
headcounts and full-time equivalents of
R&D personnel (researchers, R&D
technicians, and R&D support staff).
Data are published in NSF’s annual
publication series Higher Education
Research and Development, available on
the web at http://www.nsf.gov/statistics/
srvyherd/.
Expected respondents: The FY 2025
Higher Education R&D Survey standard
form will be administered to
approximately 690 institutions. In
addition, a shorter version of the survey
asking for R&D expenditures by source
of funding and broad field will be sent
to approximately 270 institutions
spending at least $150 thousand but less
than $1 million on R&D in their
previous fiscal year. A short population
review screener is also sent to
approximately 140 institutions before
the survey cycle to identify potential
eligible institutions not already in the
survey frame. Finally, a survey
requesting R&D expenditures by source
of funds, cost categories, and type of
R&D will be administered to the 42
Federally Funded Research and
Development Centers.
Estimate of burden: The survey is a
fully automated web data collection
effort and is handled primarily by
administrators in university sponsored
programs and accounting offices. To
minimize burden, institutions are
provided with an abundance of
guidance and resources on the web and
can respond via a downloadable
spreadsheet if desired. Each institution’s
record is pre-loaded with the 2 previous
years of comparable data that facilitate
editing and trend checking. Response to
this voluntary survey has exceeded 95
percent each year.
The average burden estimate per
survey cycle is 64 hours for the
approximately 690 institutions reporting
at least $1 million in R&D expenditures,
8 hours for the approximately 270
institutions reporting at least $150
thousand but less than $1 million, 1
hour for the approximately 140
institutions in the population screener,
and 11 hours for the 42 organizations
completing the FFRDC survey. The total
calculated burden across all forms is
46,922 hours.
Comments: Comments are invited on
(a) whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
Agency, including whether the

information shall have practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the Agency’s
estimate of the burden of the proposed
collection of information; (c) ways to
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity
of the information on respondents,
including through the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology; and (d) ways to
minimize the burden of the collection of
information on those who are to
respond, including through the use of
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.

[Docket No. 70–3103; NRC–2024–0223]

Louisiana Energy Services, LLC, dba
Urenco USA; National Enrichment
Facility; License Amendment
Application
Nuclear Regulatory
Commission.
ACTION: Opportunity to request a hearing
and to petition for leave to intervene;
order imposing procedures.
AGENCY:

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) staff accepted and
docketed an application for the
amendment of Special Nuclear
Materials (SNM) License No. SNM–
2010, submitted by Louisiana Energy
Services, LLC, dba Urenco USA dated
August 29, 2024. The license
amendment request (LAR) would
authorize the applicant to modify the
National Enrichment Facility, located in
Eunice, New Mexico to increase the
enrichment limit for the on-site
recycling and support systems from 5.5
weight percent Uranium 235 (U–235) to
less than 10.0 weight percent U–235
(LEU+), and would remove interim
controls that were established by a prior
license amendment for segregation and
storage of LEU+-exposed components
removed from production systems.
Because this amendment request
contains Sensitive Unclassified NonSafeguards Information (SUNSI), an
order imposes procedures to obtain
access to SUNSI and Safeguards
Information (SGI) for contention
preparation.
