Title: ●Government in the Sunshine Act Regulations of the National Science Board
Abstract: The final regulations that are the subject of these corrections relate to the National Science Boards compliance with Government in the Sunshine Act. In particular, current regulations require the National Science Board Office (NSBO) to maintain the General Counsels certificate, the presiding officers statement, and the transcript or recording of the closed meeting for at least two years. The current regulation should be revised to reflect three years. Additionally, the regulations require the NSBO to post meeting announcements on public notice boards at the National Science Foundation and make them available to journals of general scientific interest. The current regulation should be revised to delete the words, and make them available to journals of general scientific interest (because this requirement is not required by law) and make clear that public posting will occur at the NSF website. Need for Correction. As published, the final regulations contain errors which may prove to be misleading and need to be clarified.
