The EEC will provide advice through the chartered SAB and will comply with the provisions of FACA and all appropriate SAB Staff Office procedural policies. Background: EPA has a goal to develop and apply environmental technologies that are used to support environmental protection in a manner that increases efficiency. EPA is considering how to promote innovation within EPA and in the public and private sector so that technologies are more efficient. EPA is also considering how to bring lifecycle analysis (LCA) into the EPA’s practices and procedures in support of EPA’s efforts to produce, generate and develop environmental technologies. EPA is considering how to potentially apply LCA to achieve these objectives and goals. The EEC will receive briefings regarding the current status of EPA’s research activities associated with innovation and use of lifecycle analysis in technology development. Also, EPA is conducting research to evaluate the technical aspects of carbon dioxide geologic sequestration. EPA released guidance for pilot geologic sequestration projects in March, 2007. This guidance only addresses experimental pilot projects anticipated over the next several years. The EEC will receive briefings regarding the current status of EPA’s research activities associated with carbon sequestration. In addition, in 2007, the EEC through the chartered SAB provided advice on EPA’s Draft Sustainability Research Strategy and multi-year research plan developed by EPA’s Office of Research and Development (ORD). The strategy proposed a scientific framework for a more systematic and holistic approach to environmental protection that takes into consideration the complex nature of environmental issues and the welfare of future generations, and the multi-year research plan described ORD’s research to meet the short-term and long-term goals of the Research Strategy. The EEC will receive briefings regarding the current status of EPA’s research activities associated with sustainability. SAB’s June 2007 Advisory on the Office of Research and Development’s (ORD) Sustainability Research Strategy and the Science and Technology for Sustainability Multi-year Plan is available on the SAB Web site at https:// yosemite.epa.gov/sab/sabproduct.nsf/ 02ad90b136fc21ef85256eba00436459/ 883382937a4656cc85256fa8004e14a2!
