The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) directive, Final Information Quality Bulletin for Peer Review, dated December 15, 2004 (263 KB PDF), requires that there be a “systematic process of peer review planning” and access to a list of information products for official dissemination that will be peer reviewed as either influential scientific information or highly influential scientific assessments.

NOTE: The Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA), Office of Historical Trust Accounting (OHTA), Office of the Inspector General (OIG), Office of the Secretary (OS), Office of the Solicitor (SOL), National Business Center (NBC), and Office of Special Trustee (OST) do not believe they 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, they have no agenda of forthcoming influential scientific disseminations to post on their websites in accordance with OMB's Information Quality Bulletin for Peer Review.
