Governed by a 12-member bipartisan congressional boa~ix Senators and six Representatives, and the OTA Director, who is a nonvoting member-OTA provides a variety of services to the Senate and the House of Representatives on a broad range of issues. Services include briefings, testimony, and major assessment reports-some requiring more than 2 years to complete. OTA explores complex issues involving science and technology, helping Congress to resolve uncertainties and conflicting claims, identifying alternative policy options, and providing foresight or early alert to new developments that could have important implications for future Federal policy. OTA does not advocate particular policies or actions, but points out their pros and cons, sorts out the facts, and provides opinions. OTA's multidisciplinary staff plans, directs, and drafts all assessments. It draws extensively on the broad technical and professional resources of the private sector, including the academic community, public interest groups, State and local government, and the citizenry at large. The publications listed in this catalog are the result of various assessments and analyses requested by the committees of Congress. This catalog is revised periodically as further reports are published by OTA. General Information OTA offices are located at: 600 Pennsylvania Avenue, S.E., washington, DC. Contacts within OTA include: Publication Requests (202) 224-8996 Personnel Locator (202) 224-8713 Congressional and Public (202) 224-9241 Affairs Office Office of the Director (202) 224-3695 OTA Facsimile Machine (202) 228-6098 The following OTA administrative reports contain information about OTA and the products produced by the Office.

PC-104. Annual Report to the Congress Describes the activities of the Office during the fiscal year within the context of the legislative agenda of Congress and the events in the United States and the world during the year. The report also includes a review of management and administrative functions. Of particular importance is a thorough report on the various studies produced by OTA and specific indications of their implications for the technological community. Indications of work in progress are provided and remarks from the OTA Board are included to indicate the extent of congressional oversight.
