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 CASTNet Review Panel will
hold a public meeting to receive a presentation of review materials, on
the charge questions, to receive public comments, and to deliberate
upon the charge questions regarding the CASTNet monitoring network.
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 an in-person meeting will be limited to five
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
19, 2023, to be placed on the list of registered speakers and to have
the written comments posted publicly for consideration on the SAB
website.
[[Page 27885]]
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 19, 2023. Written
statements should be supplied to the DFO at the contact information
above. Submitters are requested to provide an 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 and
should be indicated as such at the time of submission.
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.
V. Khanna Johnston,
Deputy Director, Science Advisory Board Staff Office.
