Welcome to the National Invasive
Species Councils (NISC) website for information quality. This
site is intended to meet the requirements of Section 515 of the
Treasury and General Government Appropriations Act for Fiscal
Year 2001 (Public Law 106-554) for Federal agencies to publish
Information Quality guidelines for ensuring and maximizing the
quality, objectivity, utility and integrity of information (including
statistical information) disseminated by a Federal agency, and
to provide administrative mechanisms allowing the public to seek
and obtain correction of information maintained and disseminated
by the agency.
NISC
Information Quality
Peer Review
Based on the review it has conducted, NISC believes that is does
not currently produce or sponsor the distribution of influential
scientific information (including highly influential scientific
assessments) within the definitions promulgated by the Office
of Management and Budget. As a result, at this time NISC has
no agenda of forthcoming influential scientific disseminations
to post on its website in accordance with OMB's Information Quality
Bulletin for Peer Review.
Related Guidelines
The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has published its final
guidelines in the Federal Register on February 22, 2002.
The Department
of the Interior's (DOI) guidelines are also available.
Submitting Comments
Requests for corrections should be submitted through the process
in the NISC Document.
