Annual Report to Congress, Fiscal Year 1997. A Report by the Scientific Advisory Board of the Strategic Environmental Research and Development Program.
Abstract
Section 2904(h) of title 10, United States Code, requires that an annual report of the Strategic Environmental Research and Development Program (SERDP) Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) be submitted to Congress no later than March 15 of each year. The Annual Report is required to describe the actions of the SAB during the preceding year and to provide any recommendations, including recommendations related to projects, programs, information exchange, and additional legislation within the scope of SERDP. This is the sixth Annual Report of the SERDP SAB and includes SAB activities and Program recommendations during FY97. Specifically, SERDP should focus on research that is: essential for the solution of major defense mission-readiness related problems; scientifically plausible; focused on areas where progress under other program sponsorship in DoD and/or other agencies is not sufficient or satisfactory; catalytic in nature to initiate, organize, and accelerate essential research in partnership with the Federal and private sector; and provides sufficient proof-of-principle demonstrations to attract follow-on Research Development Test & Engineering (RDT&E) support.
