The Department of Energy is drafting a Noticed of Proposed Rulemaking (NOPR) for Conflict of Interest (COI) and Conflict of Commitment (COC) for financial assistance policy. The intent of the proposed requirements is to address long-standing risks associated with financial assistance awards, as noted in Government Accountability Office (GAO) report 21-130. This NOPR is in coordination with the Office of Science and Technology Policy and the Subcommittee on Research Security as required under National Security Presidential Memorandum (NSPM) - 33 and the NSPM-33 implementation guidance document. A NOPR for this policy would ensure transparency with the public and broad stakeholder feedback.
