SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Abstract: The U.S. Institute is a nonpartisan federal program established by 

Congress to provide impartial assistance 

to parties in resolving environmental, 

natural resource, and public lands 

conflicts involving the U.S. government. 

The U.S. Institute accomplishes much of 

its work by partnering, contracting with, 

or referral to, experienced practitioners. 

In addition, the U.S. Institute maintains 

the National Roster of Environmental 

Conflict Resolution and Collaboration 

Professionals (roster). The Application 

for the National Roster of Environmental 

Conflict Resolution and Collaboration 

Professionals (application) compiles 

data available from the resumes of 

environmental neutrals (mediators, 

facilitators, etc.) into a format that is 

standardized for efficient and fair 

eligibility review, database searches, 

and retrievals. 

The roster, the application and the 

related entry criteria, were developed 

collaboratively and with the support of 

partner federal agencies including the 

Environmental Protection Agency. To 

apply for membership of the roster a 

professional needs to complete the 

application form one time. Once an 

application is approved, the roster 

member has access to update 

information online as needed. 

The proposed collection is necessary 

for screening new applicants and the 

maintenance of the online roster system. 

The application is available from the 

U.S. Institute’s Web site at http://roster.
