technology fields. Fifteen U.S.
Government agencies, including FAS,
participate in the ESFP. The Program
provides technical experts to U.S.
embassies all over the world to assist
with issues related to agriculture,
science, technology, and health. Since
the program’s inception, FAS has
sponsored 42 Fellows in 27 countries.
To achieve its objectives, ESFP relies
on the solicitation for qualified program
applicants through a written
application. FAS Posts across the globe
provide this application to potential
Fellows to assist in determining the
adequacy of their candidacy alongside
FAS Washington. The application is
designed to capture the professional
status of the applicant, the applicant’s
personal contact information, and the
applicant’s suitability for the program.
Thus, the ESFP application is an
integral tool to Fellowship Programs
Division and FAS’ strategic goals at
large.
In addition to information related to
program objectives, the ESFP
application collects information that
may be considered Personal Identifiable
Information (PII), including the
following: name, gender, birth date,
birth city, citizenship country, country
of residence, work phone, permanent
home address, work address, personal
email, work email, and emergency
contact information (family contact:
name, relationship, home phone, cell
phone, and email).
Estimate of Burden: The public
reporting burden for each respondent
resulting from information collection
under ESFP varies in direct relation to
the number of fellowships that each
respondent participates in.
Type of Respondents: Individuals.
Estimated Number of Annual
Respondents: 10.
Estimated Number of Annual
Responses per Respondent: 1.
Estimated Total Annual Burden of
Respondents: 8 hours.
Copies of this information collection
can be obtained from Dacia Rogers, the
Agency Information Collection
Coordinator, at [email protected].
Request for Comments: Send
comments regarding (a) whether the
proposed collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
collection of information including
validity of the methodology and
assumption used; (c) ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (d)
ways to minimize the burden of the
