NSF PA/M 97-26 - July 2, 1997

GPRA Public Meetings to Be Held

The Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) was enacted by Congress and signed by the President in 1993 to "improve the efficiency and effectiveness of Federal programs by establishing a system to set goals for program performance and to measure results." The Act requires Federal agencies to submit a five-year strategic plan to Congress by September 30, 1997. The National Science Foundation has prepared a draft NSF GPRA Strategic Plan and placed it on the NSF Home Page (http://www.nsf.gov) in the Special Notices section.

NSF will host two public meetings to provide an opportunity for persons and entities potentially affected by or interested in the plan to express their views and suggestions. The meetings will be held on Wednesday, July 9, from 2:00 to 4:00, and on Thursday, July 24, from 10:00 to 12:00. Both meetings will be held at the National Science Foundation, 4201 Wilson Boulevard, Arlington, Virginia, in room 1235.
