email at <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#703b191c171f02155e3311021f1c091e301500115e171f06"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="b3f8dadfd4dcc1d69df0d2c1dcdfcaddf3d6c3d29dd4dcc5">[email protected]</span></a>. General information about the SAB, as
well as any updates concerning the meetings announced in this notice
can be found on the SAB website at <a href="https://sab.epa.gov">https://sab.epa.gov</a>.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background: The SAB was established pursuant
to the Environmental Research, Development, and Demonstration
Authorization Act (ERDDAA), codified at 42 U.S.C. 4365, to provide
independent scientific and technical advice to the EPA Administrator on
the scientific and technical basis for agency positions and
regulations. The SAB is a Federal Advisory Committee chartered under
the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA), 5 U.S.C., App. 2. The SAB
will comply with the provisions of FACA and all appropriate SAB Staff
Office procedural policies. Pursuant to FACA and EPA policy, notice is
hereby given that the Science Advisory Board DWC Augmented for the CCL
5 5 Review will hold a public meeting to discuss their draft report
reviewing EPA's Draft Fifth Drinking Water Contaminant Candidate List
and associated support documents.
Availability of Meeting Materials: All meeting materials, including
the agenda will be available on the SAB web page at <a href="https://sab.epa.gov">https://sab.epa.gov</a>.
Procedures for Providing Public Input: Public comment for
consideration by EPA's federal advisory committees and panels has a
different purpose from public comment provided to EPA program offices.
Therefore, the process for submitting comments to a federal advisory
committee is different from the process used to submit comments to an
EPA program office. Federal advisory committees and panels, including
scientific advisory committees, provide independent advice to the EPA.
Members of the public can submit relevant comments pertaining to the
committee's charge or meeting materials. Input from the public to the
SAB will have the most impact if it provides specific scientific or
technical information or analysis for the SAB to consider or if it
relates to the clarity or accuracy of the technical information.
Members of the public wishing to provide comment should follow the
instruction below to submit comments.
Oral Statements: In general, individuals or groups requesting an
oral presentation at a meeting conducted by telephone will be limited
to three minutes. Each person making an oral statement should consider
providing written comments as well as their oral statement so that the
points presented orally can be expanded upon in writing. Persons
interested in providing oral statements should contact the DFO, in
writing (preferably via email) at the contact information noted above
by May 31, 2022, to be placed on the list of registered speakers.
Written Statements: Written statements will be accepted throughout
the advisory process; however, for timely consideration by SAB members,
statements should be submitted to the DFO by May 24, 2022, for
consideration at the June 6, 2022, meeting. Written statements should
be supplied to the DFO at the contact information above via email.
Submitters are requested to provide a signed and unsigned version of
each document because the SAB Staff Office does not publish documents
with signatures on its websites. Members of the public should be aware
that their personal contact information, if included in any written
comments, may be posted to the SAB website. Copyrighted material will
not be posted without explicit permission of the copyright holder.
Accessibility: For information on access or services for
individuals with disabilities, please contact the DFO, at the contact
information noted above, preferably at least ten days prior to the
meeting, to give the EPA as much time as possible to process your
request.
Thomas H. Brennan,
Director, Science Advisory Board Staff Office.
