Becoming an Intervenor
In addition to involvement in the EA
scoping process, you may want to
become an ‘‘intervenor,’’ which is an
official party to the proceeding.
Intervenors play a more formal role in
the process and are able to file briefs,
appear at hearings, and be heard by the
courts if they choose to appeal the
Commission’s final ruling. An
intervenor formally participates in a
Commission proceeding by filing a
request to intervene. Instructions for
becoming an intervenor are included in
the User’s Guide under the ‘‘e-filing’’
link on the Commission’s Web site.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background: The Clean Air Scientific
VerDate Nov<24>2008
17:38 Feb 18, 2009
Jkt 217001
Advisory Committee (CASAC) was
established under section 109(d)(2) of
the Clean Air Act (CAA or Act) (42
U.S.C. 7409) as an independent
scientific advisory committee. CASAC
provides advice, information and
recommendations on the scientific and
technical aspects of air quality criteria
and national ambient air quality
standards (NAAQS) under sections 108
and 109 of the Act. The CASAC is a
Federal advisory committee chartered
under the Federal Advisory Committee
Act (FACA), as amended, 5 U.S.C., App.
The Panel will comply with the
provisions of FACA and all appropriate
SAB Staff Office procedural policies.
Section 109(d)(1) of the CAA requires
that the Agency periodically review and
revise, as appropriate, the air quality
criteria and the National Ambient Air
Quality Standard (NAAQS) for the six
‘‘criteria’’ air pollutants, including
particulate matter (PM). EPA conducts
scientific assessments to determine both
primary (health-based) and secondary
(welfare-based) standards for each of
these pollutants. As part of that process,
EPA’s Office of Research and
Development (ORD) has completed a
draft document, Integrated Science
Assessment for Particulate Matter (First
External Review Draft, December 2008)
and requested that CASAC peer review
the document. EPA’s Office of Air and
Radiation (OAR) will also release two
planning documents entitled Particulate
Matter National Ambient Air Quality
Standards: Scope and Methods Plan for
Health Risk and Exposure Assessment
and Particulate Matter National
Ambient Air Quality Standards: Scope
and Methods Plan for Urban Visibility
Impact Assessment (February 2009).
OAR has requested that the CASAC
review these plans.
The purpose of the April 1–2, 2009
meeting is to review these three
documents. Background information
about the formation of the CASAC
Particulate Matter Review Panel was
published in the Federal Register on
March 8, 2007 (72 FR 10527–10528).
The Panel previously held a public
teleconference on November 30, 2007
(announced in 72 FR 63177–63178) to
provide consultative advice on EPA’s
draft Integrated Review Plan for the
National Ambient Air Quality
Standards for Particulate Matter, the
first document in this review of the PM
NAAQS.
Technical Contacts: Any questions
concerning EPA’s Integrated Science
Assessment for Particulate Matter
