Peer Review

The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) directive, Final Information Quality Bulletin for Peer Review (December 16, 2004) requires 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.

BSEE provides the following agenda for those information products for official dissemination that will be peer reviewed as influential scientific information or highly influential scientific assessments (as defined in the OMB directive). The peer review agenda will be updated as needed to remain current. The BSEE Peer Review Manual is attched under Related Links.

Questions and comments regarding the BSEE Peer Review Agenda may be directed to peerreview@bsee.gov.
