(DFO), SAB Staff Office, by telephone/
voice mail at (202) 564–2057 or via
email at shallal.suhair@epa.gov. General
information concerning the EPA SAB
can be found at https://www.epa.gov/sab.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background: The SAB was
established pursuant to the
Environmental Research, Development,
and Demonstration Authorization Act
(ERDDAA) codified at 42 U.S.C. 4365, to
provide independent scientific and
technical peer review, advice,
consultation and recommendations to
the EPA Administrator on the technical
basis for EPA actions. As a Federal
Advisory Committee, the SAB conducts
business in accordance with the Federal
Advisory Committee Act (FACA) (5
U.S.C. App. 2) and related regulations.
Pursuant to FACA and EPA policy,
notice is hereby given that the SAB
Chemical Assessment Advisory
Committee (CAAC) will hold a public
meeting to learn about the EPA’s Office
of Research and Development (ORD)
Integrated Risk Information System
(IRIS) program and the development of
toxicological reviews for chemicals. The
SAB committee will comply with the
provisions of FACA and all appropriate
SAB Staff Office procedural policies.

EPA’s ORD has requested that the
SAB conduct peer reviews of selected
IRIS chemical toxicological reviews.
The SAB CAAC will be augmented, as
needed, with additional subject matter
experts to provide advice regarding IRIS
toxicological reviews through the
chartered SAB. Prior to the beginning of
their peer review activities, the CAAC is
meeting to learn more about the IRIS
program and the process for developing
IRIS toxicological reviews for chemicals.
The SAB Staff Office previously
requested public nominations of experts
to serve on the SAB committee in two
Federal Register notices published on
November 18, 2011 and August 29, 2012
(76 FR 223 pp. 71561–62; 77 FR 168 pp.
52330–31, respectively). Information
about the formation of this SAB
committee can be found on the SAB
Web site at https://yosemite.epa.gov/sab/
sabproduct.nsf/WebAll/
nominationcommittee?OpenDocument.
Availability of the review materials:
Information about this public meeting
will be available on the SAB Web site
(https://www.epa.gov/sab) prior to the
meeting. Meeting materials can be
accessed by using the ‘‘calendar’’ link in
the blue navigation sidebar and then
clicking on the date corresponding to
the meeting date.
Procedures for Providing Public Input:
Public comment for consideration by
EPA’s federal advisory committees and
panels has a different purpose from
public comment provided to EPA
program offices. Therefore, the process
for submitting comments to a federal
advisory committee is different from the
process used to submit comments to an
EPA program office. Federal advisory
committees and panels, including
scientific advisory committees, provide
independent advice to EPA. Members of
the public can submit relevant
comments pertaining to the committee’s
charge, meeting materials and/or the
group conducting the activity. Input
from the public to the SAB will have the
most impact if it consists of comments
that provide specific scientific or
technical information or analysis for the
SAB committee to consider or if it
relates to the clarity or accuracy of the
technical information. Members of the
public wishing to provide comment
should contact the Designated Federal
Officer for the relevant advisory
committee directly.
Oral Statements: In general,
individuals or groups requesting an oral
presentation will be limited to five
minutes per speaker. Interested parties
should contact Dr. Suhair Shallal, DFO,
in writing (preferably via email), at the
contact information noted above, by

(‘‘Agreement’’) pursuant to Section
122(h)(1) of CERCLA, with Rusony
Shiau and Katrina Shiau (‘‘Settling
Parties’’). The Settling Parties are
potentially responsible parties, pursuant
to Section 107(a) of CERCLA, and thus
are potentially liable for response costs
incurred at or in connection with the
1244 White Drive Site (‘‘Site’’), located
in North Brunswick, Middlesex County,
New Jersey. Under the Agreement, the
Settling Parties agree to pay a total of
$429,783.54 to EPA for past response
costs over a period of three years with
most of that money coming from the
sale of seven properties that the Settling
Parties own. The Settling Parties will
pay the money in accordance with the
following schedule. Within 30 days of
the effective date of the Settlement
Agreement, the Settling Parties will pay
EPA 10% ($42,978.35) of the total
leaving a balance of $386,805.19. Within
three years of the effective date of the
Settlement Agreement, the Settling
Parties will sell the seven properties
that they own and pay EPA 60% of the
net proceeds from the sale of each of the
seven properties until the balance of
$386,805.19 is paid in full. In the event
that any balance remains due after the
sale of the seven properties the
remaining balance will be paid out of
the Settling Parties’ estates. EPA will
consider all comments received and
may modify or withdraw its consent to
the Agreement if comments received
disclose facts or considerations that
indicate that the proposed Agreement is
inappropriate, improper, or inadequate.
EPA’s response to any comments
received will be available for public
inspection at EPA Region 2 offices, 290
Broadway, New York, New York 10007–
1866.
