This award represents continued partial support of the Board on Infrastructure and the Constructed Environment (BICE). The National Research Council, through its Division of Engineering and Physical Sciences, established the BICE in 1994 to investigate questions of technology, science, and public policy applied to urban systems and services; above ground and underground construction; the relationship between the constructed and natural environments, and their interaction with human activities; the effects of natural hazards on constructed facilities; and related issues of planning, design, construction management, surety, and use of the built environment. The BICE brings together in an independent forum expertise from a wide range of scientific, engineering, and social science disciplines to address problems and issues of infrastructure and the build environment. The BICE provides a unique structure to respond to specific requests from government, or to act on its own initiative with public or private sector support. In pursuit of its goals, BICE plans to conduct on-going strategic planning for studies, workshops, symposia, and a variety of information dissemination activities. The BICE also develops integrated and coordinated activities with the Institute for Civil Infrastructure (ICIS), established by NSF at the Wagner Graduate School at New York University. During the coming year, BICE will also include themes focused on extreme events, complexity, and interdependencies in their activities.

该奖项代表了基础设施和建筑环境委员会 (BICE) 的持续部分支持。国家研究委员会通过其工程和物理科学部于 1994 年成立了 BICE，以研究应用于城市系统和服务的技术、科学和公共政策问题；地上和地下建筑；人工环境与自然环境之间的关系，以及它们与人类活动的相互作用；自然灾害对建筑设施的影响；以及建筑环境的规划、设计、施工管理、保障和使用的相关问题。 BICE 在一个独立的论坛中汇集了来自科学、工程和社会科学领域的专业知识，以解决基础设施和建筑环境的问题。 BICE 提供了一个独特的结构来响应政府的具体要求，或在公共或私营部门的支持下自行采取行动。为了实现其目标，BICE 计划对研究、讲习班、专题讨论会和各种信息传播活动进行持续的战略规划。 BICE 还与 NSF 在纽约大学瓦格纳研究生院建立的民用基础设施研究所 (ICIS) 开展综合协调活动。来年，BICE 还将包括侧重于极端事件、复杂性和活动中的相互依赖性的主题。
