The SDR is a subcommittee of the Committee on Environment and Natural Resources (CENR) under the National Science and Technology Council. Membership in the SDR is by NSTC invitation. Nominations for SDR leadership positions are submitted by the Secretaries or Administrators of selected Federal agencies whom the NSTC invites to participate in the nomination process. The Chair, the Vice-Chair for Policy, and the Vice-Chair for Science and Technology are each selected by the Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) and serve a three-year term. Lead agency representatives to the SDR are renewed annually at the Secretary or Administrator level.
