| 00-14732 | Subcommittee on Global Change Research; Draft Report Availability | Notice | On behalf of the Subcommittee on Global Change Research (SGCR) of the Committee on Environment and Natural Resources of the National Science and Technology Council (NSTC), the National Science Foundation (NSF) announces the availability of the draft version of the National Assessment Synthesis Report for a 60-day public comment period (June 12 through August 11, 2000). The National Assessment's goal is to analyze and evaluate what is known about the potential consequences of climate variability and change for the Nation, in the context of other pressures on the public, the environment, and the Nation's resources. The National Assessment Synthesis Team (NAST) was formed in 1998 under the Federal Advisory Committee Act and was charged with, among other responsibilities, integrating key findings from the regional and sectoral analyses, augmented as appropriate with additional analyses and material from the scientific literature. The NAST prepared the report to address questions of importance to stakeholders and the Nation. The draft report is titled Climate Change Impacts on the United States: The Potential Consequences of Climate Variability and Change. The report consists of an Overview and a Foundation document that contains 19 chapters detailing and documenting the findings presented in the Overview. A list of chapters making up the draft NAST report is included with this notice. The comments received will be considered by the NAST in the preparation of the final version of its report. Although the report has already undergone extensive peer-review, this is still a draft version of the report and it should not be definitively quoted or cited as it is still undergoing review and is likely to be changed based on comments received. Due to its length and the extensive use of color graphics in parts of the report, the report is available for review primarily over the Worldwide Web. Information about how to access and download copies of the relevant chapters and the Overview report is available at the Web site of the Global Change Research Information Office (GCRIO) at http://www.gcrio.org/National Assessment/. The Web site also provides information on how to submit comments on the draft. For those who cannot access the report over the Web, one copy is available for public inspection weekdays during normal business hours at the library of the National Science Foundation in Arlington, VA. Appointments can be made by calling 703-306-0658. | 2000-06-12 | 2000 | 6 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2000/06/12/00-14732/subcommittee-on-global-change-research-draft-report-availability | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2000-06-12/pdf/00-14732.pdf | National Science Foundation | 366 | On behalf of the Subcommittee on Global Change Research (SGCR) of the Committee on Environment and Natural Resources of the National Science and Technology Council (NSTC), the National Science Foundation (NSF) announces the availability of the draft... |
