AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The EPA Science Advisory 

Board (SAB) Staff Office announces a 

public meeting of the SAB Drinking 

Water Committee Augmented for the 

Review of the Effectiveness of Partial 

Lead Service Line Replacements to 

review technical studies examining the 

effectiveness of partial lead service line 

replacements. 

DATES: There will be a public meeting 

held on March 30, 2011 from 9 a.m. to 

5 p.m. and March 31, 2011 from 8:30 

a.m. to 4 p.m. (Eastern Time). 

ADDRESSES: The face-to-face meeting

Hotel, 400 Courthouse Square, 

Alexandria, VA 22314. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Any 

member of the public wishing to obtain 

information concerning the public 

meeting may contact Mr. Aaron Yeow, 

Designated Federal Officer (DFO), EPA 

Science Advisory Board Staff Office 

(1400R), U.S. Environmental Protection 

Agency, 1200 Pennsylvania Avenue, 

NW., Washington, DC 20460; by 

telephone/voice mail at (202) 564–2050 

or at yeow.aaron@epa.gov. General 

information about the SAB, as well as 

any updates concerning the meeting 

announced in this notice, may be found 

on the EPA Web site at http:// 

www.epa.gov/sab. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background: The SAB was 

established pursuant to the 

Environmental Research, Development, 

and Demonstration Authorization Act 

(ERDAA), codified at 42 U.S.C. 4365 to 

provide independent scientific and 

technical advice to the Administrator on 

the technical basis for Agency positions 

and regulations. The SAB is a Federal 

Advisory Committee chartered under 

the Federal Advisory Committee Act 

(FACA), 5 U.S.C., App. 2. Pursuant to 

FACA and EPA policy, notice is hereby 

given that the SAB DWC Augmented for 

the Review of the Effectiveness of 

Partial Lead Service Line Replacements 

will hold a public meeting to review 

technical studies examining the 

effectiveness of partial lead service line 

replacements. The SAB will comply 

with the provisions of FACA and all 

appropriate SAB Staff Office procedural 

policies. 

Exposure to lead through drinking 

water results primarily from the 

corrosion of lead pipes and plumbing 

materials. EPA’s Office of Water (OW) 

promulgated the Lead and Copper Rule 

(LCR) to minimize the amount of lead in 

drinking water. The LCR requires water 

systems that are not able to limit lead 

corrosion through treatment to replace 

service lines (pipes connecting 

buildings to water distribution mains) 

that are made from lead. Water systems 

must replace the portion of the lead 

service line owned by the system and 

offer to replace the customer’s portion at 

the customer’s cost. When customers do 

not replace their portion of the service 

line, the situation is called a ‘‘partial 

lead service line replacement.’’ OW has 

requested the SAB to review and 

provide advice on recent studies 

examining the effectiveness of partial 

lead service line replacements. SAB’s 

advice will guide EPA’s determination 

of whether the scientific foundation for 

the regulatory requirement allowing the 

use of partial lead service line 

replacement may need to be modified in 

light of more recent scientific studies. 

Availability of Meeting Materials: 

Agendas and materials in support of this 

meeting will be placed on the EPA Web 

site at http://www.epa.gov/sab in 

advance of the meeting. For technical 

questions and information concerning 

the review materials please contact Mr. 

Jeffrey Kempic of EPA’s Office of Water 

at (202) 564–4880, or 

kempic.jeffrey@epa.gov. 

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 comments for a federal 

advisory committee to consider as it 

develops advice for EPA. They should 

send their comments directly to the 

Designated Federal Officer for the 

relevant advisory committee. Oral 

Statements: In general, individuals or 

groups requesting an oral presentation 

at a public face-to-face meeting will be 

limited to five minutes. Each person 

making an oral statement should 

consider providing written comments as 

well as their oral statement so that the 

points presented orally can be expanded 

upon in writing. Interested parties 

should contact Mr. Aaron Yeow, DFO, 

in writing (preferably via e-mail) at the 

contact information noted above by 

March 23, 2011 for the face-to-face 

meeting, to be placed on the list of 

public speakers. Written Statements: 

Written statements should be supplied 

to the DFO via email at the contact 

information noted above by March 23, 

2011 for the face-to-face meeting so that 

the information may be made available 

to the Panel members for their 

consideration. Written statements 

should be supplied in one of the 

following electronic formats: Adobe 

Acrobat PDF, MS Word, MS 

PowerPoint, or Rich Text files in IBM– 

PC/Windows 98/2000/XP format. 

Submitters are requested to provide 

versions of signed documents, 

submitted with and without signatures, 

because the SAB Staff Office does not 

publish documents with signatures on 

its Web sites. 

Accessibility: For information on 

access or services for individuals with 

disabilities, please contact Mr. Aaron 

Yeow at (202) 564–2050 or 

yeow.aaron@epa.gov. To request 

accommodation of a disability, please 

contact Mr. Yeow preferably at least ten 

days prior to each meeting to give EPA
