Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 183 / Thursday, September 22, 2005 / Notices Therefore, the SAB Staff Office will select a set of nominees for consideration to serve on the GISST Review Panel (known as the ‘‘Short List’’) from the rosters of SAB panels that reviewed the CrEAM and ReVA methods, and from previously published Short Lists of candidates for those panels. The rosters of the SAB Critical Ecosystem Assessment Model Review Panel and the SAB Regional Vulnerability Assessment Advisory Panel, as well as the Short Lists of candidates for these panels, are available on the SAB Web site https:// www.epa.gov/sab. 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 biosketch. Public comments on the Short List will be accepted for 14 calendar days. During this comment period, the public will be requested to provide information, analysis or other documentation on nominees that the SAB Staff should consider in evaluating candidates for the Panel. For the SAB, a balanced review panel (i.e., committee, subcommittee, or 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 gathered by SAB Staff independently of 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 evaluation of an individual subcommittee member include: (a) Scientific and/or technical expertise, knowledge, and experience (primary factors); (b) absence of financial conflicts of interest; (c) scientific credibility and impartiality; (d) availability and willingness to serve; and (e) ability to work constructively and effectively in committees. Prospective panelists 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 VerDate Aug<31>2005 14:53 Sep 21, 2005 Jkt 205001 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/pdf/epaform3110– 48.pdf. Availability of Meeting Materials Pursuant to the Federal Advisory Committee Act, Public Law 92–463, notice is hereby given that the Panel will hold a public meeting to conduct this review. The dates and times for the meeting are provided above. A roster of panel members, their biosketches, the meeting agenda, and the charge to the SAB panel will be posted on the SAB Web site prior to the meeting. Meeting materials also include the EPA Region 6 GIS Screening Tool (GISST) User’s Manual available at the following URL address: https://www.epa.gov/earth1r6/ 6en/xp/enxp2a3.htm.
