SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background: The Clean Air Scientific
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
2. 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 NAAQS for the six
‘‘criteria’’ air pollutants, including
particulate matter (PM). EPA conducts
scientific and policy assessments related
to both primary (health-based) and
secondary (welfare-based) standards for
each of these pollutants. As part of that
process, the CASAC Particulate Matter
Review Panel has been reviewing a
series of EPA’s assessments that provide
the basis for EPA rulemaking on
particulate matter.
At the July 26–27, 2010 meeting, the
CASAC Particulate Matter Review Panel
will review EPA’s forthcoming Policy
Assessment for the Review of the
Particulate Matter National Ambient Air
Quality Standards—Second External
Review Draft (June 2010). EPA’s Office
of Air and Radiation’s Office of Air
Quality Planning and Standards
PO 00000
Frm 00029
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
(OAQPS) requested CASAC’s review of
this draft document as part of its review
of the PM NAAQS. The second draft
Policy Assessment includes
consideration of CASAC and public
comments on the first draft Policy
Assessment (March 2010) as well as
additional analyses conducted by
OAQPS. This draft document builds
upon the key scientific and technical
information contained in the Agency’s
Integrated Science Assessment (ISA) for
Particulate Matter: Final Report
(December 2009) as well as the two
forthcoming final assessment
documents titled Particulate Matter
Urban-Focused Visibility Assessment:
Final Report (June 2010) and
Quantitative Health Risk Assessment for
Particulate Matter: Final Report (June
2010).
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

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
[EPA-HQ-OPPT-2010-0456 FRL-8829-7]
Certain New Chemicals; Receipt and Status Information
AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: Section 5 of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) requires
any person who intends to manufacture (defined by statute to include
import) a new chemical (i.e., a chemical not on the TSCA Inventory) to
notify EPA and comply with the statutory provisions pertaining to the
manufacture of new chemicals. Under sections 5(d)(2) and 5(d)(3) of
TSCA, EPA is required to publish a notice of receipt of a
premanufacture notice (PMN) or an application for a test marketing
exemption (TME), and to publish periodic status reports on the
chemicals under review and the receipt of notices of commencement to
manufacture those chemicals. This status report, which covers the
period from April 26, 2010 to May 7, 2010, consists of the PMNs and
TME, both pending or expired, and the notices of commencement to
manufacture a new chemical that the Agency has received under TSCA
section 5 during this time period.
DATES: Comments identified by the specific PMN number or TME number,
must be received on or before July 9, 2010.
ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, identified by docket identification
(ID) number EPA-HQ-OPPT-2010-0456, by one of the following methods:

provided, unless the comment includes information claimed to be
Confidential Business Information (CBI) or other information whose
disclosure is restricted by statute. Do not submit information that you
consider to be CBI or otherwise protected through regulations.gov or e-
mail. The regulations.gov website is an ``anonymous access'' system,
which means EPA will not know your identity or contact information
unless you provide it in the body of your comment. If you send an e-
mail comment directly to EPA without going through regulations.gov,
your e-mail address will be automatically captured and included as part
of the comment that is placed in the docket and made available on the
Internet. If you submit an electronic comment, EPA recommends that you
include your name and other
