My issue with this bill is that it ignores the crucial function of NTIS as a library. That is, an official source of these documents with a responsibility to maintain, categorize, and retain them. Various other public sites have no such responsibility.

Insofar as that is a critical function, the bill allows the Secretary of Commerce to declare it as such and, provided the Comptroller-General finds that the function isn't duplicated elsewhere in the federal government, transfer the function to another office within the Department of Commerce. See Section 3(b) of the bill.
