NSPM-33 and CHIPS and Science Act Implementation Status

National Security Presidential Memorandum 33

National Security Presidential Memorandum 33 (NSPM-33) requires research institutions that receive more than $50 million per year in federal science and engineering support for the previous two fiscal years to operate a research security program.

The requirements also require institutions to provide a status update 120 days from issuance of the final implementation guidance, which has yet to be issued.

The UO is currently engaging stakeholders to begin determining the best approach to meeting the requirements set forth by NSPM-33.
