Meeting of the Mobile Sources Technical Review Subcommittee, 9643-9644 [05-3795]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 38 / Monday, February 28, 2005 / Notices (v) Service on other advisory committees, professional societies, especially those associated with issues under discussion in this review; and (vi) Sources of recent (i.e., within the preceding two years) grant and/or other contract support, from government, industry, academia, etc., including the topic area of the funded activity. Please note that even if there is no responsive information (e.g., no recent grant or contract funding), this must be indicated on the biosketch (by ‘‘N/A’’ or ‘‘None’’). Incomplete biosketches will result in nomination packages not being accepted. The EPA SAB Staff Office will acknowledge receipt of the nomination. From the nominees identified by respondents to this notice (termed the ‘‘Widecast’’), the SAB Staff Office will develop a smaller subset (known as the ‘‘Short List’’) for more detailed consideration. Criteria used by the SAB Staff in developing this Short List are given at the end of the following paragraph. The Short List will be posted on the SAB Web site at: https:// www.epa.gov/sab, and will include, for each candidate, the nominee’s name and their biosketch. Public comments will be accepted for 21 calendar days on the Short List. During this comment period, the public will be requested to provide information, analysis or other documentation on nominees that the SAB Staff Office should consider in evaluating candidates for the Panel. For the EPA SAB Staff Office, a balanced subcommittee or review panel is characterized by inclusion of candidates who possess the necessary domains of knowledge, the relevant scientific perspectives (which, among other factors, can be influenced by work history and affiliation), and the collective breadth of experience to adequately address the charge. Public responses to the Short List candidates will be considered in the selection of the Panel, along with information provided by candidates and information independently-gathered by the SAB Staff Office on the background of each candidate (e.g., financial disclosure information and computer searches to evaluate a nominee’s prior involvement with the topic under review). Specific criteria to be used in evaluating an individual Panel member include: (a) Scientific and/or technical expertise, knowledge, and experience (primary factors); (b) availability and willingness to serve; (c) absence of financial conflicts of interest; (d) absence of an appearance of a lack of impartiality; and (e) skills working in committees, subcommittees and advisory panels; and, for the Panel as a whole, (f) VerDate jul<14>2003 16:34 Feb 25, 2005 Jkt 205001 9643 diversity of, and balance among, scientific expertise, viewpoints, etc. Members of the SAB Ad Hoc AALM Review Panel will likely be asked to attend one public, face-to-face meeting and no more than two public teleconference meetings over the anticipated life of the Panel. Prospective candidates will also be required to fill-out the ‘‘Confidential Financial Disclosure Form for Special Government Employees Serving on Federal Advisory Committees at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’’ (EPA Form 3110–48). This confidential form allows Government officials to determine whether there is a statutory conflict between that person’s public responsibilities (which includes membership on an EPA Federal advisory committee) and private interests and activities, or the appearance of a lack of impartiality, as defined by Federal regulation. The form may be viewed and downloaded from the following URL address: https:// www.epa.gov/sab/sge_course/pdf_sge/ epaform3110_48.pdf. The approved policy under which the EPA SAB Office selects subcommittees and review panels is described in the following document: Overview of the Panel Formation Process at the Environmental Protection Agency Science Advisory Board (EPA–SAB–EC– 02–010), which is posted on the SAB Web site at: https://www.epa.gov/sab/ pdf/ec02010.pdf.
