48552 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 157 / Tuesday, August 14, 2012 / Notices 

DATES: Requests for copies must be 

received in writing on or before 

September 13, 2012. Once the appraisal 

of the records is completed, NARA will 

send a copy of the schedule. NARA staff 

usually prepare appraisal 

memorandums that contain additional 

information concerning the records 

covered by a proposed schedule. These, 

too, may be requested and will be 

provided once the appraisal is 

completed. Requesters will be given 30 

days to submit comments. 

ADDRESSES: You may request a copy of 

any records schedule identified in this 

notice by contacting Records 

Management Services (ACNR) using one 

of the following means: 

Mail: NARA (ACNR), 8601 Adelphi 

Road, College Park, MD 20740–6001. 

Email: request.schedule@nara.gov. 

Fax: 301–837–3698. 

Requesters must cite the control 

number, which appears in parentheses 

after the name of the agency which 

submitted the schedule, and must 

provide a mailing address. Those who 

desire appraisal reports should so 

indicate in their request. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Records Management Program (ACNR),

Administration, 8601 Adelphi Road,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Each year 

Federal agencies create billions of 

records on paper, film, magnetic tape, 

and other media. To control this 

accumulation, agency records managers 

prepare schedules proposing retention 

periods for records and submit these 

schedules for NARA’s approval, using 

the Standard Form (SF) 115, Request for 

Records Disposition Authority. These 

schedules provide for the timely transfer 

into the National Archives of 

historically valuable records and 

authorize the disposal of all other 

records after the agency no longer needs 

them to conduct its business. Some 

schedules are comprehensive and cover 

all the records of an agency or one of its 

major subdivisions. Most schedules, 

however, cover records of only one 

office or program or a few series of 

records. Many of these update 

previously approved schedules, and 

some include records proposed as 

permanent. 

The schedules listed in this notice are 

media neutral unless specified 

otherwise. An item in a schedule is 

media neutral when the disposition 

instructions may be applied to records 

regardless of the medium in which the 

records are created and maintained. 

Items included in schedules submitted 

to NARA on or after December 17, 2007, 

are media neutral unless the item is 

limited to a specific medium. (See 36 

CFR 1225.12(e).) 

No Federal records are authorized for 

destruction without the approval of the 

Archivist of the United States. This 

approval is granted only after a 

thorough consideration of their 

administrative use by the agency of 

origin, the rights of the Government and 

of private persons directly affected by 

the Government’s activities, and 

whether or not they have historical or 

other value. 

Besides identifying the Federal 

agencies and any subdivisions 

requesting disposition authority, this 

public notice lists the organizational 

unit(s) accumulating the records or 

indicates agency-wide applicability in 

the case of schedules that cover records 

that may be accumulated throughout an 

agency. This notice provides the control 

number assigned to each schedule, the 

total number of schedule items, and the 

number of temporary items (the records 

proposed for destruction). It also 

includes a brief description of the 

temporary records. The records 

schedule itself contains a full 

description of the records at the file unit 

level as well as their disposition. If 

NARA staff has prepared an appraisal 

memorandum for the schedule, it too 

includes information about the records. 

Further information about the 

disposition process is available on 

request.

1. Department of the Army, Agencywide (N1–AU–10–75, 1 item, 1 

temporary item). Master files of an

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title of Collection: Engineering 

Research Center’s Diversity Climate 

Survey. 

OMB Number: 3145–NEW. 

Expiration Date of Approval: Not 

applicable. 

Type of Request: Intent to seek 

approval to establish an information 

collection. 

Abstract: 

Proposed Project: We would like to 

use Survey Monkey to administer a 

diversity climate survey to the 17, active 

NSF Engineering Research Centers. This 

survey will have a mix of rating and 

open-ended questions. Our goal is to 

gain an understanding of the climate of 

diversity within the ERCs. 

Need and Use of Information 

Collection: The NSF ERCs were 

established in 1985 with one of the 

goals being the development of a 

diverse, globally competitive 

engineering workforce. The ERCs 

provide information regarding diversity 

in the Centers through 10-year diversity 

strategic plans and annual reporting that 

includes demographic data. However, 

beyond the numbers, NSF does not have 

a good understanding of the culture for 

diversity inside these centers and how 

it impacts faculty, students and their 

success. This information will enable 

NSF to have an unprecedented 

perspective of ERC diversity culture. 

From this knowledge, a benchmark for 

progress towards creating a path of 

equity in engineering for women, and 

especially for racial/ethnic minorities 

and persons with disabilities can be 

established starting with the culture of 

the centers. Also, with a better 

understanding of the diversity efforts 

and diversity culture within the ERCs, 

the information will enable us to assess, 

refine, and improve diversity efforts. We
