These documents may be accessed in the ‘‘Documents from Current Review’’ section under ‘‘Risk and Exposure Assessments.’’ The EPA is soliciting advice and recommendations from the CASAC by means of a review of the draft documents at an upcoming public meeting of the CASAC scheduled in Chapel Hill, NC. Information about this public meeting, including the date and location, will be published as a separate notice in the Federal Register. Following the CASAC meeting, EPA will consider comments received from the CASAC and the public in preparing revisions to these assessment documents. In addition, on or about September 15, 2009, EPA will make available a third draft document: Policy Assessment for the Review of the National Ambient Air Quality Standards: Preliminary Draft. The development of this document is a result of recent changes to the NAAQS review process. On May 21, 2009, Administrator Jackson called for key changes to the NAAQS review process including reinstating a policy assessment document that contains staff analyses of the scientific bases for alternative policy options for consideration by senior Agency management prior to rulemaking. This document, which builds upon the historical ‘‘Staff Paper,’’ will serve to ‘‘bridge the gap’’ between the scientific information and the judgments required of the Administrator in determining whether it is appropriate to retain or revise the standards. In conjunction with this change, EPA will no longer issue a policy assessment in the form of an Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPR).4 The preliminary draft Policy Assessment (PA) builds upon information presented in the Integrated Science Assessment for Particulate Matter (Second External Review Draft) 5 and the two draft assessment documents described above. This preliminary draft PA will include several chapters but is not intended to be a complete draft PA document in that it will not include staff conclusions on a range of policy options that could be appropriate for the 4 See https://www.epa.gov/ttn/naaqs/review.html for a copy of Administrator Jackson’s May 21, 2009 memorandum and for additional information on the NAAQS review process. 5 EPA/600/R–08/139B; July 2009; Available: https://www.epa.gov/ttn/naaqs/standards/pm/ s_pm_2007_isa.html.

It is instead being released for informational purposes to facilitate a discussion with CASAC on the overall structure, areas of focus, and level of detail to be included in an external review draft of the document, which EPA plans to release for CASAC review and public comment later this year. The preliminary draft PA may be accessed online through EPA’s TTN Web site at https://www.epa.gov/ttn/ naaqs/standards/pm/s_pm_index.html. This document may be accessed in the ‘‘Documents from Current Review’’ section under ‘‘Policy Assessments.’’ The discussion with CASAC on this preliminary draft PA will be held at the same meeting that CASAC will review of the second draft ISA and the two draft assessment documents described above. The draft documents briefly described above do not represent and should not be construed to represent any final EPA policy, viewpoint, or determination. The EPA will consider any public comments submitted in response to this notice when revising the documents. Dated: September 2, 2009. Jeffrey S.
