C.1 Forms used to process STI include: NASA Form (NF) 1676, NASA Scientific and Technical (STI) Document Availability Authorization (DAA) and Instructions, the EDAA implementation of this form, and the Report Documentation Page (SF-298).
C.1.1 See the latest version and instructions for the NF1676 and EDAA at https://nef.nasa.gov/ (Internal to NASA).
C.1.2 NASA requires this form for all STI to be published and disseminated external to NASA or presented at internal meetings at which foreign persons are invited or likely to be present.
C.2 NF1676B and Instructions: Note: At the time this NPR was approved, some seven Centers were converting to and/or already using the Agency EDAA system, which is the NF1676B. Other Centers continue to use the electronic version of the NF1676 (see http://nef.nasa.gov (internal to NASA) or Center-based DAA systems).
C.3 SF298: See http://www.gsa.gov/portal/forms/download/116146 for this form. If the EDAA is used, the SF298 is not required because the EDAA encompasses data elements of the SF298.
C.4 NASA Supplementary Instructions to Complete Standard Form (SF) 298, Report Documentation Page (RDP): NASA uses this intergovernmental form (available at http://www.gsa.gov/portal/forms/download/116146) that does not allow customization. Look for special notes (NOTE) if NASA's procedures differ slightly from other agencies.
Block 1: | NOTE: NASA uses month and year (February 2015) on the covers and title pages of its documents. However, this OMB form is coded for block 1 to accept data in the following format: day, month, and year (ex.: day (23), month (02), year (2015) or 23-02-2015, which means February 23, 2015). For this block, use the actual date of publication (on the cover and title page and add 01 for the day. Example is March 2015 on the cover and title page and 01-03-15 for block 1. |
