Draft Integrated Science Assessment 

for Ozone and Related Photochemical 

Oxidants 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency. 

ACTION: Notice of Public Comment 

Period. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Environmental 

Protection Agency (EPA) is announcing 

a 60-day public comment period and 

availability of the first external review 

draft of a document titled, ‘‘First 

External Review Draft Integrated 

Science Assessment for Ozone and 

Related Photochemical Oxidants’’ (EPA/ 

600/R–10/076A). The document was 

prepared by the National Center for 

Environmental Assessment (NCEA) 

within EPA’s Office of Research and 

Development as part of the review of the 

national ambient air quality standards 

(NAAQS) for ozone. 

EPA is releasing this draft document 

to seek review by the Clean Air 

Scientific Advisory Committee (CASAC) 

and the public (meeting date and 

location to be specified in a separate 

Federal Register notice). The draft 

document does not represent and 

should not be construed to represent 

any final EPA policy, viewpoint, or 

determination. EPA will consider any 

public comments submitted in response 

to this notice when revising the 

document. 

DATES: The public comment period 

begins February 28, 2011, and ends 

April 29, 2011. Comments must be 

received by April 29, 2011. 

ADDRESSES: The ‘‘First External Review 

Draft Integrated Science Assessment for 

Ozone and Related Photochemical 

Oxidants’’ will be available primarily via 

the Internet on the National Center for 

Environmental Assessment’s home page 

under the Recent Additions and 

Publications menus at http:// 

www.epa.gov/ncea. A limited number of 

CD–ROM or paper copies will be 

available. Contact Ms. Debbie Wales by 

phone (919–541–4731), fax (919–541– 

5078), or e-mail 

(wales.deborah@epa.gov) to request 

either of these, and please provide your 

name, your mailing address, and the 

document title, ‘‘First External Review 

Draft Integrated Science Assessment for 

Ozone and Related Photochemical 

Oxidants’’ (EPA/600/R–10/076A) to 

facilitate processing of your request. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For 

technical information, contact Dr. James 

Brown, NCEA; telephone: 919–541– 

0765; facsimile: 919–541–1818; or 

e-mail: Brown.James@epa.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Information About the Document 

Section 108(a) of the Clean Air Act 

directs the Administrator to identify 

certain pollutants which, among other 

things, ‘‘cause or contribute to air 

pollution which may reasonably be 

anticipated to endanger public health or 

welfare’’ and to issue air quality criteria 

for them. These air quality criteria are 

to ‘‘accurately reflect the latest scientific 

knowledge useful in indicating the kind 

and extent of all identifiable effects on 

public health or welfare which may be 

expected from the presence of [a] 

pollutant in the ambient air * * *.’’ 

Under section 109 of the Act, EPA is 

then to establish national ambient air 

quality standards (NAAQS) for each 


srobinson on DSKHWCL6B1PROD with NOTICES
10894 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 39 / Monday, February 28, 2011 / Notices 

pollutant for which EPA has issued 

criteria. Section 109(d) of the Act 

subsequently requires periodic review 

and, if appropriate, revision of existing 

air quality criteria to reflect advances in 

scientific knowledge on the effects of 

the pollutant on public health or 

welfare. EPA is also to revise the 

NAAQS, if appropriate, based on the 

revised air quality criteria. 

Ozone (O3) is one of six principal (or 

‘‘criteria’’) pollutants for which EPA has 

established NAAQS. Periodically, EPA 

reviews the scientific basis for these 

standards by preparing an Integrated 

Science Assessment (ISA) (formerly 

called an Air Quality Criteria 

Document). The ISA, in conjunction 

with additional technical and policy 

assessments, provide the scientific basis 

for EPA decisions on the adequacy of 

the current NAAQS and the 

appropriateness of possible alternative 

standards. The Clean Air Scientific 

Advisory Committee (CASAC), an 

independent science advisory 

committee whose existence and whose 

review and advisory functions are 

mandated by Section 109(d)(2) of the 

Clean Air Act, is charged (among other 

things) with independent scientific 

review of EPA’s air quality criteria. 

On Sep 29, 2008 (73 FR 56581), EPA 

formally initiated its current review of 

the air quality criteria for ozone, 

requesting the submission of recent 

scientific information on specified 

topics. A draft of EPA’s ‘‘Integrated 

Review Plan for the Ozone National 

Ambient Air Quality Standards Review’’ 

(EPA/452/P–09/001) was made available 

in September 2009 for public comment 

and was discussed by the CASAC via a 

publicly accessible teleconference 

consultation on November 13, 2009 

(74 FR 54562). In August 2010, EPA 

held a workshop to discuss, with 

invited scientific experts, initial draft 

materials prepared in the development 

of the ISA (75 FR 42085). 

The first external review draft ISA for 

Ozone and Related Photochemical 

Oxidants will be discussed at a public 

meeting for review by CASAC, and 

public comments received will be 

provided to the CASAC review panel. A 

future Federal Register notice will 

inform the public of the exact date and 

time of that CASAC meeting.

Commission doing business as Grand 

Casino Hinckley. This permit authorizes 

Grand Casino Hinckley to operate three 

diesel-burning generator sets for peak 

load management and backup power at 

its facility in Hinckley, Minnesota. On 

December 30, 2010, pursuant to title I of 

the Clean Air Act, EPA also issued a 

modification of the facility’s existing 

Prevention of Significant Deterioration 

(PSD) permit, also known as an Air 

Quality Construction Permit. The 

modification changes the permit’s 

emissions testing frequency from every 

three years to every five years. The 

facility is located on the Mille Lacs 

Band of Ojibwe Indian Reservation.
