Federal Advisory Committee Act
(FACA), 5 U.S.C. App. 2, to provide
advice and recommendations to EPA on
innovative approaches to funding
environmental programs, projects, and
activities. Administrative support for
the EFAB is provided by the Water
Infrastructure and Resiliency Finance
Center within EPA’s Office of Water.
Pursuant to FACA and EPA policy,
notice is hereby given that the EFAB
will hold a virtual public meeting for
the following purposes:
(1) Provide EFAB workgroup updates
to the Board regarding work products
and workplans related to the
Opportunity Zones charge the Board
accepted during its October 2020
meeting;
(2) Receive briefings from invited
speakers from EPA and the
Environmental Finance Center Network
on environmental finance topics; and
(3) Discuss potential future EFAB
projects including Stormwater Credit
Trading, Environmental Risk and the
Cost of Capital, Financing Small
Manufacturer Pollution Prevention
Project, and others.
Registration for the Meeting: Register
for the meeting at https://www.epa.gov/
waterfinancecenter/efab#meeting.
Availability of Meeting Materials:
Meeting materials (including the
meeting agenda and briefing materials)
will be available on EPA’s website at
https://www.epa.gov/
waterfinancecenter/efab.
Procedures for Providing Public Input:
Public comment for consideration by
EPA’s federal advisory committees 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 provide independent advice
to EPA. Members of the public can
submit comments on matters being
considered by the EFAB for
consideration by members as they
develop their advice and
recommendations to EPA.
Oral Statements: In general,
individuals or groups requesting an oral
presentation at a virtual EFAB public
meeting will be limited to three minutes
each. Persons interested in providing
oral statements at the April 2021
meeting should register in advance and
provide notification as noted in the
registration confirmation by April 12,
2021 to be placed on the list of
registered speakers.
Written Statements: Written
statements for the April 2021 meeting
should be received by April 12, 2021 so
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:03 Mar 08, 2021
Jkt 253001
that the information can be made
available to the EFAB for its
consideration prior to the meeting.
Written statements should be sent via
email to efab@epa.gov. Members of the
public should be aware that their
personal contact information, if
included in any written comments, may
be posted to the EFAB 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 or to request
accommodations for a disability, please
register for the meeting and list any
special requirements or
accommodations needed on the
registration form at least 10 business
days prior to the meeting to allow as
much time as possible to process your
request.
