SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant
to the Federal Advisory Committee Act,
Public Law 92–463, notice is hereby
given that the EPA SAB will hold a
public teleconference to review two
draft SAB documents. The SAB was
established by 42 U.S.C. 4365 to provide
independent scientific and technical
advice to the Administrator on the
technical basis for Agency positions and
PO 00000
Frm 00026
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
46057
regulations. The SAB is a Federal
Advisory Committee chartered under
the Federal Advisory Committee Act
(FACA), as amended, 5 U.S.C., App. The
SAB will comply with the provisions of
FACA and all appropriate SAB Staff
Office procedural policies.
Background: The purpose of the
public teleconference is to conduct a
quality review of two draft SAB
documents. These documents are the:
(a) Science Advisory Board’s Homeland
Security Advisory Committee
Consultation on the EPA’s Emergency
Consequence Assessment Tool and
Incident-based Microbial Risk
Assessment Framework, and (b)
Advisory on the Agency Draft White
Paper Entitled Modifying EPA Radiation
Risk Models Based on Bier VII. In
reviewing draft reports, the SAB
considers whether: (i) The original
charge questions to the SAB review
panel were adequately addressed in the
draft report, (ii) the draft report is clear
and logical; and (iii) the conclusions
drawn, or recommendations made in the
draft report, are supported by the body
of the report.
(a) The EPA National Homeland
Security Research Center (NHSRC)
requested that the SAB provide
technical advice on its Emergency
Consequence Assessment Tool (ECAT)
and its preliminary incident-based
Microbial Risk Assessment (MRA)
Framework (see 72 FR 20538 of April
25, 2007) which are being developed by
the NHSRC. ECAT is an interactive
online risk assessment and management
software tool to provide health advisors,
and other emergency response officials,
with rapid access to critical information
during an environmental emergency or
training exercise. ECAT is designed to
assess and provide site-specific numeric
estimates of health risks for selected
chemical, biological and radiological
threat agents; and identify appropriate
response actions to mitigate these risks.
Additionally, NHRSC asked the SAB for
advice on its White Paper describing
issues important to the development of
a decision framework for assessing
health risks and developing clean up
levels associated with a
decontamination response following
exposure to microbial agents.
Additional information about the SAB
consultation on these two topics is
available on the SAB Web Site at: https://
www.epa.gov/sab/panels/
hsacadhoc.html.
(b) EPA’s Office of Radiation and
Indoor Air (ORIA) asked the SAB to
provide advice on a draft White Paper:
Modifying EPA Radiation Risk Models
Based on BEIR VII, dated August 2006
(see 71 FR 45545 of August 9, 2006; 71
