FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Members of the public who wish to attend must register by contacting Dr. Angela Nugent, Designated Federal Officer (DFO), EPA Science Advisory Board (1400R), U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, 1200 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20460; via telephone/voice mail (202) 564– 2218, fax (202) 565–2098; or e-mail at nugent.angela@epa.gov, by May 27, 2011. Persons unable to attend the public session may send written comments to Dr. Angela Nugent by May 27, 2011. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Background: The SAB Staff Office provides management and technical support to the Council, CASAC, and the SAB and their committees and panels. The SAB Staff also provides information to the public about committee activities and how the public can provide input into the science advice process. As part of its effort to continuously strengthen policies and procedures for informing the public and involving them in advisory processes, the SAB Staff Office is holding a public session to receive public input and feedback on current processes. The SAB Staff Office will mstockstill on DSKH9S0YB1PROD with NOTICES SUMMARY: VerDate Mar<15>2010 17:18 May 10, 2011 Jkt 223001 consider this feedback as it develops additional policies and procedures to support Council, CASAC, and SAB advisory activities. Established by statute, the Council (42 U.S.C 7612), the CASAC (42 U.S.C. 7409), and the SAB (42 U.S.C. 4365) are EPA’s chartered Federal Advisory Committees that provide independent scientific and technical peer review, consultation, advice and recommendations directly to the EPA Administrator on the scientific bases for EPA’s actions and programs. Members of the SAB, CASAC, and the Council are appointed by the EPA Administrator. As Federal Advisory Committees, the Council, CASAC, and SAB conduct business in accordance with the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA) (5 U.S.C. App. 2) and related regulations. Generally, Council, CASAC and SAB meetings are announced in the Federal Register, conducted in public view, and provide opportunities for public input during deliberations. Additional information about these Federal Advisory Committees may be found at https://www.epa.gov/advisorycouncilcaa, https://www.epa.gov/casac and https:// www.epa.gov/sab, respectively. The SAB Staff Office is holding a public session to receive public input and feedback in four areas: (1) The public access Web sites supporting the Council, CASAC and SAB; (2) public involvement in nomination of experts for committees and panels; (3) public involvement in meeting and report development; and (4) other topics of interest to the public. Public Access Web Sites Supporting the Council, CASAC and SAB Three inter-related public access Web sites (https://www.epa.gov/ advisorycouncilcaa, https:// www.epa.gov/casac and https:// www.epa.gov/sab) have been developed to communicate current information about the membership, activities, and reports of the Council, CASAC and SAB and to facilitate public involvement in advisory activities. The Web sites were designed with the following features: (1) Integration of all information relevant to a specific advisory activity on a single page (e.g. key information related to Agency requests for advice, advisory committee or panel membership, Federal Register Notices, related meetings, draft and final reports, Agency responses to advice); (2) integration of all information relevant for a specific meeting on a single page (e.g. Federal Register Notices, meeting agendas, materials, and minutes); (3) a calendar of meetings that can be organized by day, week, month, or year; PO 00000 Frm 00015 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 27315 (4) ‘‘Recent Happenings’’ and ‘‘Recent Additions’’ sections and related ‘‘really simple syndication’’ (RSS) feeds that highlight opportunities for public input, most recent draft and final reports, and recent Agency responses; (5) a search function that identifies Council, CASAC, and SAB final reports, draft reports, advisory activities, Federal Register notices, meetings, committees and panels, and special-purpose Web pages; and (6) electronic nomination of experts for committees and panels. The SAB Staff Office is seeking public comment on strengthening the clarity, navigability, and usefulness of the Web sites. Public Involvement in Nomination of Experts for Committees and Panels The EPA Administrator appoints members to the Council, CASAC, the chartered SAB and SAB Standing Committees. Members of advisory committees and panels are non-EPA scientists, engineers, and economists and other social scientists who are recognized experts in their respective fields. They may come from academia, industry, state, and tribal governments, research institutes and nongovernmental organizations throughout the United States. EPA chooses them for their demonstrated ability to examine and analyze environmental issues with objectivity and integrity and for their interpersonal, oral and written communication, and consensusbuilding skills. The SAB Staff annually requests nominations from the public for membership on the chartered SAB and SAB Standing Committees. The latest request was published in the Federal Register on April 15, 2011 (76 FR 21349–21350). Members of the public may nominate experts as part of this annual process through the ‘‘Nomination of experts’’ link on the blue navigation bar at https://www.epa.gov/sab. The SAB Staff Office also forms ad hoc subcommittees and panels under the auspices of the Council, CASAC, and SAB on environmental science topics. As additional expertise is needed, the SAB Staff Office requests for nominations are published in the Federal Register and posted on the public access Web sites. Members of the public may nominate experts for ad hoc sub committees and panels, again through the ‘‘Nomination of experts’’ link on the blue navigation bar at https://www.epa.gov/sab and may comment on candidates being considered for ad hoc committees and panels. To describe these processes, the SAB Staff has developed: (1) A general E:\FR\FM\11MYN1.SGM 11MYN1
