SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Information About the Document

    Section 108(a) of the Clean Air Act directs the Administrator to 
identify certain pollutants that ``cause or contribute to air pollution 
which may reasonably be anticipated to endanger public health and 
welfare'' and to issue air quality criteria for them. These air quality 
criteria are to ``accurately reflect the latest scientific knowledge 
useful in indicating the kind and extent of all identifiable effects on 
public health or welfare which may be expected from the presence of [a] 
pollutant in the ambient air * * * .'' Under section 109 of the Act, 
EPA is then to establish national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) 
for each pollutant for which EPA has issued criteria. Section 109(d) of 
the Act subsequently requires periodic review and, if appropriate, 
revision of existing air quality criteria to reflect advances in 
scientific knowledge on the effects of the pollutant on public health 
and welfare. EPA is also to revise the NAAQS, if appropriate, based on 
the revised air quality criteria.
    Sulfur oxides are one of six principal (or ``criteria'') pollutants 
for which EPA has established NAAQS. Periodically, EPA reviews the 
scientific basis for these standards by preparing an Integrated Science 
Assessment (ISA), formerly called an Air Quality Criteria Document 
(AQCD). The ISA and supplementary annexes, in conjunction with 
additional technical and policy assessments, provide the scientific 
basis for EPA decisions on the adequacy of a current NAAQS and the 
appropriateness of new or revised standards. The Clean Air Scientific 
Advisory Committee (CASAC), an independent science advisory committee 
mandated by the Clean Air Act and part of the EPA's Science Advisory 
Board (SAB), is charged with independent expert scientific review of 
EPA's draft ISAs.
    On May 16, 2006 (71 FR 28023), EPA formally initiated its current 
review of the criteria for Sulfur Oxides, requesting the submission of 
recent scientific information on specified topics. A draft of EPA's 
``Integrated Plan for Review of the Primary National Ambient Air 
Quality Standard for Sulfur Oxides'' was made available in February 
2007 for public comment and was discussed by the CASAC via a publicly 
accessible teleconference consultation on May 11, 2007 (72 FR 20336). A 
review of the secondary (welfare-based) NAAQS for Sulfur Oxides is 
being conducted separately, in conjunction with the review of the 
secondary NAAQS for Oxides of Nitrogen. The plan was finalized and made 
available in October 2007 (https://www.epa.gov/ttn/naaqs/standards/so2/
s_so2_cr_pd.html). In February 2007 (72 FR 6238), a workshop was 
held to discuss, with invited scientific experts, initial draft 
materials prepared in the development of the ISA and supplementary 
annexes for sulfur oxides. The first external review draft of this ISA 
was released for public comment and review by the CASAC on September 
28, 2007 (72 FR 55207), and was reviewed by CASAC at a public meeting 
held on December 5-6, 2007 (72 FR 64216). The second draft document was 
released for CASAC and public review on May 30, 2008 (73 FR 31113); 
this draft document incorporated revisions to address comments raised 
by CASAC and the public. The Annexes to the draft ISA were made 
available for review on June 17, 2008. In response to requests from the 
public, EPA is extending the deadline for public comments from July 25 
to August 11, 2008.
    The second external review draft ISA for Sulfur Oxides will be 
discussed at a public meeting for review by CASAC, and public comments 
received will be provided to the CASAC review panel. A future Federal 
Register notice will inform the public of the exact date and time of 
that CASAC meeting.
