Abstract: This is an extension without change of a currently approved generic collection to continue promoting innovative solutions. This generic allows Commerce to provide a quick and efficient process to create registration and application forms for Commerce sponsored events, meetings, workshops, presentations, panels, and advisory committees that go beyond what is necessary to register, and one-time miscellaneous forms that are primarily of an administrative nature, not to be used for programmatic purposes, and are necessary to achieve mission objectives. The Department of Commerce Bureaus directly sponsors, and organizes activities, including research-related activities, meetings, and outreach events. For such activities to be timely and to optimally use available resources to address needs and opportunities within the research and outreach community, it is necessary for Commerce to have a means to expeditiously register and select the most appropriate participants, according to the type or purpose of a given activity.
