SUMMARY: Under the Federal Advisory Committee Act, Public Law 92463, 
EPA gives notice of a meeting of the Good Neighbor Environmental Board 
(Board). The Board usually meets three times each calendar year, twice 
at different locations along the U.S. border with Mexico, and once in 
Washington, DC. It was created in 1992 by the Enterprise for the 
Americas Initiative Act, Public Law 102-532, 7 U.S.C. Section 5404. 
Implementing authority was delegated to the Administrator of EPA under 
Executive Order 12916. The Board is responsible for providing advice to 
the President and the Congress on environmental and infrastructure 
issues and needs within the States contiguous to Mexico in order to 
improve the quality of life of persons residing on the United States 
side of the border. The statute calls for the Board to have 
representatives from U.S. Government agencies; the States of Arizona, 
California, New Mexico and Texas; and Tribal and private organizations 
to provide advice on environmental and infrastructure issues along the 
U.S.-Mexico border.
    The purpose of the meeting is to discuss the Board's 14th report, 
which will focus on the environmental and economic benefits of 
renewable energy in the border region. A copy of the meeting agenda 
will be posted at http://www.epa.gov/ocem/gneb.
