�鶹��Ѱ��Boulder submits recommendations on proposed federal research regulations Megan M Rogers Mon, 07/20/2026 - 12:22

After gathering feedback from across its research community, �鶹��Ѱ��Boulder has submitted recommendations to the White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB) on proposed revisions to the federal regulations governing research grants and other forms of federal financial assistance.

The university submitted its comments before the July 13 public comment deadline after reviewing more than 100 responses from faculty, researchers, research administrators, graduate students, postdoctoral scholars and staff. Campus leaders also considered analyses from peer institutions and national higher education organizations in developing the university's response.

“Federal research investments produce their greatest value when they support scientifically rigorous research, encourage innovation, foster collaboration, train the next generation of researchers and enable discoveries to be communicated broadly for the benefit of society,” said Chancellor Justin Schwartz. “The university believes the requested revisions would strengthen the proposed regulation by preserving these foundational characteristics while advancing OMB's objectives.”

�鶹��Ѱ��Boulder leaders said the university's recommendations are intended to help ensure federal regulations continue to support scientific discovery while maintaining appropriate oversight of taxpayer-funded research.

The university's response focuses on seven broad priorities:

Preserving the stability and competitiveness of the U.S. research enterprise
Maintaining independent expert peer review as the primary basis for research funding decisions
Preserving research continuity through predictable award administration and clearly defined termination standards
Recognizing publication, conferences and scientific communication as integral components of federally funded research
Strengthening research security while preserving legitimate international scientific collaboration
Applying risk-based administrative oversight that improves accountability without creating unnecessary burden
Providing clear, operationally implementable regulatory requirements that support consistent implementation across federal agencies

In its comments, �鶹��Ѱ��Boulder noted that while many of the proposed OMB changes appear administrative when considered individually, their combined effect could increase uncertainty throughout the research lifecycle—from proposal development and award administration to scientific communication, workforce development and international collaboration.

The university's recommendations encourage OMB to evaluate the proposed regulations as an integrated whole and to preserve the stable, transparent and merit-based processes that have supported decades of federally funded research.

"These recommendations reflect a coordinated campus perspective informed by both local experience and broader developments across the national research enterprise, offering constructive feedback intended to strengthen stewardship while preserving the stability, transparency and competitiveness of the U.S. research enterprise," said Massimo Ruzzene, senior vice chancellor for research and innovation and dean of the institutes.

The �鶹��Ѱ��Boulder response also emphasizes the importance of maintaining independent expert peer review as the primary basis for evaluating research proposals. University leaders argue that transparent, consistently applied scientific review supports innovation, long-term planning and responsible stewardship of federal investments.

�鶹��Ѱ��Boulder further recommends maintaining predictable award administration and clearly defined standards for award termination to support long-term research projects, graduate education and institutional planning. The university also urges OMB to continue recognizing publication, conference participation and the dissemination of research findings as essential components of federally funded research.

Additional recommendations call for aligning research security requirements with existing federal frameworks while preserving legitimate international scientific collaboration and adopting risk-based administrative oversight that strengthens accountability without imposing unnecessary burdens on research institutions.

The university also encourages OMB to provide greater regulatory clarity to support consistent implementation across federal agencies and to preserve rigorous scientific inquiry and evidence-based research.

After gathering feedback from across its research community, �鶹��Ѱ��Boulder has submitted recommendations to the White House Office of Management and Budget on proposed revisions to the federal regulations governing research grants and other forms of federal financial assistance.

Getches-Wilkinson Center joins law scholars in defense of public lands rule Megan M Rogers Tue, 11/25/2025 - 12:03

The Getches-Wilkinson Center for Natural Resources, Energy and the Environment, in collaboration with law professors across the western United States, has taken the lead in defending the Bureau of Land Management (BLM)'s 2024 Conservation and Public Lands Health Rule by submitting detailed comments to BLM's acting director Bill Groffy in response to a proposed rescission.

The scholars weighed in to ensure the BLM correctly interprets and applies the core principles of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 (FLPMA) and upholds the agency's authority to protect shared natural resources for future generations.

“The Bureau of Land Management oversees 245 million acres of public land, one out of every 10 acres in the country,” said Chris Winter, executive director of the Getches–Wilkinson Center. “We must constantly balance protections for clean air and water, wildlife habitat, cultural importance, and inspiration along with providing economic opportunity. Under our public land laws, no one use takes precedence over the others.”

The public lands rule was a significant regulatory update intended to guide the stewardship of 245 million acres of federal public lands. It implemented FLPMA’s "multiple use and sustained yield" framework by clarifying BLM’s mission, shifting focus toward long-term ecological health and resilience.

The public lands rule established a framework for measuring and tracking landscape health and ensuring the conservation of public resources is treated equally with other multiple uses, guaranteeing a sustained yield for the American public. It is firmly grounded in FLPMA, which explicitly prohibits the permanent impairment of the land and the quality of the environment.

Following a change in administration, the BLM proposed to rescind the public lands rule entirely, asserting it conflicted with FLPMA’s statutory authorities. Learn more and read the submitted comments.

COP movement on climate change continues despite missing US delegation

COP movement on climate change continues despite missing US delegation Megan M Rogers Thu, 11/20/2025 - 09:27

Max Boykoff, executive faculty director of the Buckley Center for Sustainability Education at �鶹��Ѱ��Boulder, speaks on a panel at COP30 in Brazil.

As the annual United Nations COP30 enters its second week, international policymakers are discussing critical issues, including the rise in natural disasters worldwide and the next steps for global fossil fuel policy. With no official U.S. delegates in attendance this year, state representatives, academics and other U.S. nationals have stepped in to represent the country in new ways.

COP30 is being held in Belém, Brazil, and Max Boykoff, executive faculty director of the Buckley Center for Sustainability Education at �鶹��Ѱ��Boulder, attended the first week. We sat down with him to hear about his experience, reflections on COP30 and his perspective on what it looked like without U.S. representatives at the table.

Max Boykoff

COP30's location in the Amazon carried enormous symbolic and political weight—how did this change the conversations?

Yes, Belem, Brazil, is a toughened, weathered city near the equator at the mouth of the Amazon River and edge of the Amazon Rainforest. This city hosts the event as Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva was determined to bring the eyes of the world and nearly 60,000 COP30 participants to Belem.

The placement of the event also lowered travel barriers for many Indigenous groups in the Amazon region. It has been reported there have been more than 900 Indigenous participants at this COP30, which is three times higher than the last meeting in Baku, Azerbaijan.

How did the absence of the US shape the tone of the negotiations and the conversations?

Yes, unfortunately, the Trump Administration chose not to send any U.S. delegates to COP30. This absence means missed opportunities to demonstrate moral and material leadership; engage in the clean energy transition; and discuss trade, security, energy and human rights issues.

The U.S. is nearly alone in missing the talks, with only three other countries—Afghanistan, Myanmar and San Marino—choosing not to participate. Notably, when the Trump Administration withdrew from the Paris Agreement, a legally binding international commitment to combat climate change and reduce global emission, the U.S. joined only Iran, Yemen and Libya on the short list of non-participants in the climate pact.

Did the lack of US engagement open space for other countries, regions or non-state actors to step forward, or did it create a vacuum that slowed momentum?

Yes, other countries and member states are stepping into the leadership vacuum left by the absence of U.S. negotiators. Notably, I have observed Brazil, China, Kenya and Malawi stepping forward in vocal roles. Also, I sat in on some of California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s visit here, demonstrating ongoing subnational U.S. engagement in the absence of national leadership at present. Additionally, it was reported that New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham also was in attendance last week.

There are many other U.S.-based subnational public officials as well as university faculty and students that are nonetheless continuing to work diligently despite the absence of the U.S. negotiating team. There is also an active "America is All In" coalition here (representing U.S. cities; states; tribal nations; businesses; schools; and institutions of faith, health and culture) that is hosting events and activities to demonstrate the stance of the U.S. Trump Administration is limited.

It is hard to say yet whether U.S. delegation non-participation is slowing momentum. Some here have expressed relief that Trump officials are not in the way or actively obstructing concerted action here. But looking at this through the lens of greenhouse gas emissions paired with capacity to constructively contribute to solutions, makes their absence unavoidably felt: Historically, the U.S. has been the largest emitter of CO2 globally and is the world’s richest country on planet Earth.

Key takeaways

While U.S. federal standing has diminished, challenges persist. Those most at risk from climate change often have the least power to influence solutions. However, youth and civil society mobilizations, including Indigenous-led movements, have been visible throughout COP30 and across Belém, advocating for deep decarbonization, opposition to extractive and exploitative industries, and support for environmental justice.

A landmark Declaration on Information Integrity on Climate Change was launched at COP30, establishing shared international commitments to address climate disinformation and promote evidence-based information. Thirteen countries have signed so far, pledging to support information integrity at international, national and local levels, in line with human rights and Paris Agreement principles.

What role did higher education institutions play at COP30, and how can they meaningfully contribute when official pathways feel gridlocked?

This has been dubbed the "mutirão meeting." This Portuguese word signifies coming together in collective efforts to achieve a common goal. This has also been referred to as "the truth COP" and "the implementation COP," as representatives of most nations around the world gather here to make progress on international climate policy to combat climate change.

With collaborators at Colorado State and Colorado College, we have leaned into our privileges and responsibilities as researchers and academics advising and mentoring students. With them I represented �鶹��Ѱ��Boulder as we co-hosted and led a discussion with university graduate and undergraduate students and four former U.S. climate negotiators/delegates. About 70 students participated and had the chance to ask questions ranging from how they themselves can become a negotiator to how they view the current state of negotiations.

This was a moment where students not only gathered to ask these questions but it was also a moment where we shared our perspectives— from hopes and ambitions to worries and concerns about the ongoing climate negotiations. It was a positive experience that we seek to continue providing in future COP meetings in collaboration with Colorado-based universities and colleges.

How did you and others from �鶹��Ѱ��Boulder participate/show up at COP30 this year?

This year I spoke at four events, while attending several others and also observing parts of the ongoing negotiations.

Among them I spoke about media, advertising and public relations contributions to mis- and dis-information about climate change at one panel event called "Research and Evidence to Strengthen Information Integrity on Climate Change." In addition, I also spoke at another panel event focused on implementing new forest economies, climate finance, Indigenous digital sovereignty, and climate communications at the subnational level.

How efforts to make heavy trucks more efficient could hit a roadblock

How efforts to make heavy trucks more efficient could hit a roadblock Anonymous (not verified) Thu, 07/18/2024 - 07:55

Yvaine Ye

Deliveries are getting faster than ever in the U.S., but the faster movement of goods is undercutting the country’s climate progress.

In a new study published July 18 in the journal Nature Energy, a �鶹��Ѱ��Boulder researcher and his collaborator estimate that federal regulations aimed at enhancing heavy-duty trucks’ energy efficiency could be as much as 20% less effective than policymakers initially anticipated.

That’s because the regulations make trucking cheaper. As a result, more shippers will likely switch from using less energy-intensive rail transportation to using more energy-intensive trucks to ship goods.

“We were surprised to see how big of an impact the change in shipping decisions has on our energy use,” said Jonathan Hughes, the paper’s corresponding author and professor in the Department of Economics at �鶹��Ѱ��Boulder. “Increasing vehicles’ energy efficiency is very costly for truck makers, so it’s important to know how much benefit we can get realistically from these costly regulations.”

Jonathan Hughes

The rebound effect

In economics, increased consumption due to improved efficiency and reduced costs is known as the rebound effect.

For example, if using an air conditioner consumes much more electricity than using a fan, many people will stick to the fan. But when air conditioners become more efficient, and cooling becomes cheaper, more people will switch to air conditioners. This behavior change would increase overall energy consumption.

Hughes and his collaborators wanted to study the extent of the rebound effect in the freight sector.

“When we think about the challenges in energy and climate change issues, freight transportation is a big, important sector that hasn't received enough attention,” Hughes said.

The freight sector, which includes transportation of goods by truck, train, ship and airplane, represents approximately 10% of total U.S. energy consumption. Freight movement contributes to 27% of the country’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the transportation sector, which is the largest source of emissions in the U.S.

The majority of emissions from the freight sector come from trucking, which saw a 76% increase in GHG emissions since 1990.

In a bid to reduce emissions and avoid the worse consequences of climate change, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has rolled out a series of regulations to improve heavy-duty vehicles’ energy efficiency since 2011. These rules require newly manufactured trucks to achieve better mileage using less fuel and emit less GHG.

In March, the EPA announced the strictest-ever fuel economy standards, aiming to prevent 1 billion metric tons of GHG emissions by 2055.

But while these regulations make trucks more energy-efficient, they also make trucking cheaper by reducing fuel costs. As a result, many shippers may opt to transport their goods by truck instead of rail, because trucks can reach destinations faster, allowing for quicker product sales. The authors note that trucks consume significantly more fuel than rail to transport the same amount of goods over the same distance.

Unintended consequence

Hughes and his collaborator, James Bushnell of University of California at Davis, used newly released data on goods movement from the U.S. Census Bureau to estimate the rebound effect in the freight sector. Using a computer simulation, they calculated the amount of energy saved if the EPA regulations increased new trucks’ fuel efficiency by 5%, which is roughly what the standard is today.

Under this scenario, the team found that the regulations had the potential to save 674 million gallons of gas per year. But when they factored in the increased share of goods forecasted to be shipped by truck due to the rebound effect, the regulations would only save 497 million gallons of fuel—still a significant amount, but 26% less than previously estimated.

Some industries, such as the chemical, animal feed, alcohol and petroleum industries are particularly sensitive to reductions in fuel costs and would likely experience the largest rebound effect, Hughes said.

Accounting for all modes of freight transportation, the team estimated that the rebound effect in the freight sector would reduce the total fuel savings from federal regulations by 20%.

“We show that if we make transportation much more efficient, either through increasing energy efficiency or automation that reduces labor costs, we will likely wind up consuming more energy than we thought we would,” said Hughes.

While the paper focused on the freight sector, Hughes added a similar rebound effect could also exists in the retail sector, which includes businesses like Amazon.

“These regulations that help reduce transportation costs certainly benefit consumers, because we can now purchase things at lower prices. But we show that these rules can be somewhat counterproductive in terms of achieving our climate change and energy goals,” Hughes said.

Hughes said making fuel pricier and transportation more expensive through programs like taxing carbon emissions would be a more effective way to reduce energy use in transportation. But those types of policies tend to be very difficult to get political support for, he added.

“This study shows we should get a more complete picture of the impacts these regulations might have, so we don’t end up adopting policies that lead to unintended negative effects,” he said.

A new study suggests that the U.S. government’s push to increase heavy-duty trucks’ energy efficiency could encourage more shipping by truck instead of rail, reducing the policies’ anticipated effectiveness by 20%.

Colorado Rep. Yadira Caraveo visits �鶹��Ѱ��Boulder to talk quantum Anonymous (not verified) Wed, 07/03/2024 - 13:17

Colorado Congresswoman Yadira Caraveo dipped into all-things quantum July 3 as she made her first official visit to �鶹��Ѱ��Boulder and JILA, a joint institute between the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and �鶹��Ѱ��Boulder.

As a member of the House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology arriving on campus only a day after it was announced that the Mountain West is receiving a $127 million infusion to bolster quantum technology and workforce, the discussion was energized and timely. The committee oversees vital policies related to the National Science Foundation (NSF), NASA, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), and NIST. The committee also handles several aspects of federal quantum policy.

“I am really looking forward to continued partnership with you all,” said Caraveo after hearing about a range of quantum initiatives on campus and across the region and taking notes. “I’m going to get down to work making sure these agencies are well-funded.”

She was joined by university leaders, including Chancellor Justin Schwartz, Vice Chancellor for Research Massimo Ruzzene, Dean of the College of Engineering and Applied Science Keith Molenaar, and notable researchers and professors, including JILA Fellow John Bohn, JILA and NIST Fellow Jun Ye, Mike Gooseff, Scott Diddams, Greg Rieker, CUbit Quantum Initiative Director Scott Sternberg and representatives Laura Buccini and Dan LaBarbera from the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus.

“In my short time at �鶹��Ѱ��so far, I have had the privilege of taking part in the exciting work that the university, in partnership with government and industry, is doing to build the quantum ecosystem in Colorado,” said Schwartz, who began his post as �鶹��Ѱ��Boulder’s 12th chancellor on July 1. “It is a very exciting time and one of the reasons I was so excited to join the �鶹��Ѱ��Boulder community.”

Schwartz also expressed gratitude to Caraveo for her leadership on the House Science Committee, which is leading the 118th Congress in updating the National Quantum Initiative Act, and offered the university’s support for passing the bill this year. The law, which has accelerated federal research in quantum, expired in 2023.

“�鶹��Ѱ��appreciates the inclusion of many of our priorities in the House reauthorization bill, including expanded NIST partnerships in quantum sensing and quantum engineering, ensuring the current NSF quantum institutes are renewable, creating a new quantum center opportunity at NASA, and authorizing new NSF programs to expand efforts in education, translation, capacity building and infrastructure,” Ruzzene said.

In addition to giving her a better understanding of the latest advancements and challenges in quantum science, the campus conversation emphasized the critical role of ongoing federal support in continuing the United States' leadership in quantum research and innovation.

Colorado’s growing quantum hub

Caraveo is one of many Colorado leaders who has recently visited �鶹��Ѱ��Boulder and JILA to discuss ongoing efforts in quantum research.

Colorado is rapidly establishing itself as a quantum research and innovation hub, with �鶹��Ѱ��Boulder playing a key role in helping to spawn many local quantum computing startup companies. The state government estimates the quantum industry could add thousands of jobs to Colorado over the next decade.

Just the day before, the U.S. Economic Development Administration announced that Elevate Quantum, of which �鶹��Ѱ��Boulder is a key partner, received a Tech Hub Phase 2 implementation award from the Department of Commerce, unlocking more than $127 million in new federal and state funding.
