The Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) Science Advisory Board
(SAB) Staff Office announces two public
teleconferences of the SAB ReducedForm Tools Review Panel (RFT Review
Panel) to review EPA’s October 2019
report: ‘‘Evaluating Reduced Form Tools
for Estimating Air Quality Benefits.’’
DATES: The public teleconferences of the
Science Advisory Board RFT Review
Panel will be held on Thursday, May 28,
2020, from 12:00 noon to 5:00 p.m.
(Eastern Time) and Friday, May 29,
2020, from 12:00 noon to 5:00 p.m.
(Eastern Time).
ADDRESSES: The teleconferences will be
conducted by telephone only.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Any
member of the public who wants further
information concerning the public
teleconferences may contact Dr. Suhair
Shallal, Designated Federal Officer
(DFO), via telephone/voice mail (202)
564–2059, or email at shallal.suhair@
epa.gov. General information
concerning the SAB can be found on the

and Demonstration Authorization Act
(ERDDAA), codified at 42 U.S.C. 4365,
to provide independent scientific and

Review Panel (RFT Review Panel) will
hold two public teleconferences to
review EPA’s Evaluation of Reduced
Form Tools for Estimating Air Quality
Benefits. The SAB RFT Review Panel
will provide comments on the
appropriateness of the framework
developed and outlined in the report for
evaluating the use of Reduced-Form
Tools to generate estimates of monetized
health benefits compared with those
that rely on full-form air quality and
health benefits models to inform the
cost-benefit analyses of major regulatory
actions. The RFT Review Panel will also
provide input with regard to future
design improvements to enhance the
capabilities of these tools.
Technical Contacts: Any technical
questions concerning EPA’s document
titled Evaluating Reduced-Form Tools
for Estimating Air Quality Benefits
should be directed to Dr. Erika Sasser
(sasser.erika@epa.gov).
Availability of Meeting Materials:
Prior to the teleconferences, the agenda
and other meeting materials for each
teleconference will be placed on the
SAB website at https://epa.gov/sab.
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 the EPA. Members of the
public can submit relevant comments
pertaining to the committee’s charge or
meeting materials. Input from the public
to the SAB RFT Review Panel will have
the most impact if it provides specific
scientific or technical information or
analysis for the SAB RFT Review Panel
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
DFO directly.
Oral Statements: In general,
individuals or groups requesting an oral
presentation at a public teleconference
will be limited to three minutes. Persons
interested in providing oral statements
on May 21, 2020, should contact Dr. Sue
Shallal, DFO, via email at the contact
information noted above by May 21,
2020, to be placed on the list of
registered speakers.
Written Statements: Written
statements will be accepted throughout
the advisory process; however, for
timely consideration by SAB RFT

Review Panel members, statements
should be received in the SAB Staff
Office by May 21, 2020, for
consideration at the public
teleconference(s). Written statements
should be supplied to the DFO via email
at the contact information above.
Submitters are requested to provide a
signed and unsigned version of each
document because the SAB Staff Office
does not publish documents with
signatures on its websites. Members of
the public should be aware that their
personal contact information, if
included in any written comments, may
be posted to the SAB website.
Copyrighted material will not be posted
without explicit permission of the
copyright holder.
Accessibility: For information on
access or services for individuals with
disabilities, please contact Dr. Shallal at
the phone number or email address
noted above, preferably at least ten days
prior to the meeting, to give the EPA as
much time as possible to process your
request.

commenced modification after
September 21, 2011. Physical or
operational changes made to the SSI
unit to comply with the SSI Emission
Guidelines at 40 CFR part 60, subpart
