46328 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 147 / Wednesday, July 31, 2013 / Notices 

An abstract of the article helps members 

of the public find articles of interest, 

which helps to ensure the best crossdiscipline use of the science. 

• Distribution Statement. A text field 

that describes how distribution of the 

article should be restricted, if 

applicable. Required by DoD Instruction 

5230.24 dated August 23, 2012. 

• Submitted Date. A date field that 

indicates when the author submitted the 

article for publication, whether or not 

publication actually took place. Funded 

research yields products of many forms. 

Some are submitted for publication but 

may not be published. Unpublished 

articles may be available from the DoD 

awarding office. The submitted date 

provides a useful time context for the 

unpublished research when members of 

the public are searching for research on 

DoD public-facing web portals. 

Products—Publications: Conference 

Papers and Presentations 

• Publication Date. A date field 

indicating the publication date of the 

conference proceedings. If a conference 

is funded, the proceedings and resulting 

published records may have dates that 

are subsequent to the conference. For 

the fullest use of the funded research, 

the publication date provides timeframe 

context for application of the science in 

the future. 

Intellectual Property—Inventions 

The following three fields supplement 

the existing RPPR data fields on 

invention reporting and will be used 

only if the awarding office elects to use 

the RPPR for interim contract reporting. 

These fields support certain invention 

reporting requirements for contracts 

awarded under Federal Acquisition 

Regulation (FAR) Part 27, Patents, Data, 

and Copyrights, and Defense FAR 

Supplement Part 227, Patents, Data, and 

Copyrights. The RPPR may be used to 

collect these data fields in lieu of 

collecting them on other existing 

reporting mechanisms used for 

contracts, such as the DD Form 882, 

Report of Inventions and Subcontracts. 

• Name of Employer. A text field 

indicating the name of the inventor’s 

employer. 

• Address of Employer. A text field 

indicating the address of the inventor’s 

employer. 

• Confirmatory Instrument. A Yes/No 

field indicating if a confirmatory 

instrument or assignment was 

forwarded to the DoD Contracting 

Officer. 

Participants 

• National Academy Member. A Yes/ 

No field to indicate if a participant on 

the project is, or became, a National 

Academy of Science member during the 

reporting period. This data is used for 

statistical purposes to determine the 

number of National Academy members 

participating in the funded research. 

Special Reporting Requirements 

• Clinical trial(s) issues. A text field 

for use in awards involving clinical 

trials to describe any enrollment issues, 

retention problems, and adverse event/ 

unanticipated problems involving risks 

to subjects or others, and actions or 

plans for mitigation. DoD Instruction 

3216.02, Protection of Human Subjects 

and Adherence to Ethical Standards in 

DoD-Supported Research, requires that 

any changes to previously-approved 

clinical trials be reported for review by 

the DoD Human Research Protection 

Official. 

The following two fields are for 

awards to Historically Black Colleges 

and Universities and Minority-Serving 

Institutions (HBCU/MI), to help evaluate 

the outcomes of HBCU/MI investments: 

• Number of undergraduate and 

graduate student Science, Technology, 

Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) 

participants. A numeric field to indicate 

the number of student participants 

enrolled in STEM disciplines during the 

reporting period. This data will be 

useful in assessing the impact of DoD 

funding on STEM education at HBCU/ 

MI. 

• Number of student participants that 

received a STEM degree. A numeric 

field to indicate the number of student 

participants that received a STEM 

degree during the reporting period. This 

data will be useful in assessing the 

impact of DoD funding on STEM 

education at HBCU/MI.
