Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 59 / Monday, March 28, 2011 / Notices 17121 

On March 15, 2011, Federal Energy 

Regulatory Commission staff (Staff) held 

a technical conference to obtain further 

information to aid the Commission in 

considering issues related to the 

ownership of and priority access rights 

to new participant-funded transmission 

projects. 

In particular, Staff sought to explore 

issues related to priority rights to use 

transmission infrastructure developed 

under various new business models in 

two specific contexts: independent and/ 

or merchant transmission, and generator 

lead lines. In both contexts, participants 

were encouraged to identify and discuss 

the appropriate balance between the 

Commission’s requirements for open 

access and the needs of project 

developers. Participants were also 

encouraged to propose and discuss 

specific regulatory alternatives that are 

consistent with the Commission’s open 

access policies and its statutory 

responsibility to ensure that rates, 

terms, and conditions of service are just 

and reasonable and not unduly 

discriminatory or preferential. 

Persons wishing to comment on these 

issues should submit written comments 

to the Commission no later than April 

21, 2011. 

Dated: March 18, 2011.

Deputy Secretary.

Wednesday, April 6, 2011. To the extent 

that time permits, interested persons 

who have not pre-registered may be 

permitted by the Chair of the HSRB to 

present oral comments at the meeting. 

Each individual or group wishing to 

make brief oral comments to the HSRB 

is strongly advised to submit their 

request (preferably via email) to Jim 

Downing or Lu-Ann Kleibacker, under 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT, no 

later than noon, Eastern Time, 

Wednesday, April 6, 2011, in order to be

Please note that this includes all 

individuals appearing either as part of, 

or on behalf of, an organization. While 

it is our intent to hear a full range of oral 

comments on the science and ethics 

issues under discussion, it is not our 

intent to permit organizations to expand 

the time limitations by having 

numerous individuals sign up 

separately to speak on their behalf. If 

additional time is available, further 

public comments may be possible. 

2. Written comments. Submit your 

written comments prior to the meeting.

comments will be provided to the Board 

members, but you should recognize that 

the Board members may not have 

adequate time to consider those 

comments prior to making a decision. 

Thus, if you plan to submit written 

comments, the Agency strongly 

encourages you to submit such 

comments no later than noon, Eastern 

Time, Wednesday, April 6, 2011. You 

should submit your comments using the

E. Background 

The HSRB is a Federal advisory 

committee operating in accordance with 

the Federal Advisory Committee Act 

(FACA) 5 U.S.C. App.2 § 9. The HSRB 

provides advice, information, and 

recommendations to EPA on issues 

related to scientific and ethical aspects 

of human subjects research. The major 

objectives of the HSRB are to provide 

advice and recommendations on: (1) 

Research proposals and protocols; (2) 

reports of completed research with 

human subjects; and (3) how to 

strengthen EPA’s programs for 

protection of human subjects of 

research. The HSRB reports to the EPA 

Administrator through EPA’s Science 

Advisor. 

1. Topics for discussion. At its 

meeting on April 13 and 14, 2011, EPA’s 

Human Studies Review Board will 

consider scientific and ethical issues 

surrounding these topics: 

a. The report of a completed scenario 

monograph and study reports from the 

Agricultural Handler Exposure Task 

Force (AHETF) measuring the dermal 

and inhalation exposure of professional 

agricultural workers applying liquid 

spray pesticides to tree or trellis crops 

using open cab airblast equipment. 

b. The report of a completed scenario 

monograph and study report from the 

Antimicrobial Exposure Assessment 

Task Force II (AEATF) in which the 

dermal and inhalation exposure of 

professional janitorial workers was 

monitored as they applied a liquid 

antimicrobial product to indoor surfaces 

using a trigger spray bottle and wipes or 

ready-to-use wipes. 

c. A published report by Gulson et al 

(2010) of an intentional exposure 

human study measuring dermal 

absorption of zinc oxides contained in 

sunscreen. 

d. A reevaluation of an intentional 

human dosing study with chlorpyrifos 

(Kisicki) previously reviewed by the 

HSRB; pertinent new information from 

the sponsor has been made available. 

2. Meeting minutes and reports. 

Minutes of the meeting, summarizing 

the matters discussed and 

recommendations, if any, made by the 

advisory committee regarding such 

matters, will be released within 90 

calendar days of the meeting. Such 

minutes will be available at http:// 

www.epa.gov/osa/hsrb/ and http://

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background: The Advisory Council 

on Clean Air Compliance Analysis 

(Council) was established pursuant to 

Section 812 of the Clean Air Act (CAA) 

Amendments of 1990 (codified as 42 

U.S.C. 7612) to provide independent 

advice to the Administrator on technical 

and economic aspects of analyses and 

reports EPA prepares on the impacts of 

the CAA on the public health, economy, 

and environment of the United States. 

The Council 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 Council augmented with additional 

experts (hereafter referred to as the 

Black Carbon Review Panel) will hold a 

public meeting to review EPA’s Draft 

Report to Congress on Black Carbon. 

The Panel will comply with the 

provisions of FACA and all appropriate 

SAB Staff Office procedural policies. 

The October 2009 Interior 

Appropriations bill (Pub. L. 111–88) 

requires the EPA, in consultation with 

other Federal agencies, to prepare a 

comprehensive report to Congress on 

the climate effects of black carbon. 

Black carbon, or soot, results from 

incomplete combustion of organic 

matter such as fossil fuels and biomass. 

The report to Congress will evaluate and 

synthesize available information on 

sources of black carbon, impacts of 

black carbon on global and regional 

climate, and the potential utility and 

cost-effectiveness of mitigation options 

for reducing climate and public health 

impacts of black carbon. 

EPA’s Office of Air Quality Planning 

and Standards (OAQPS) requested that 

the Council review the draft Report to 

Congress on Black Carbon to evaluate 

the report’s scientific rigor, 

completeness, and technical accuracy. 

To conduct this review, the Council was 

augmented with additional experts in 

climate modeling and black carbon 

emissions, impacts, and control 

strategies. Information about formation 

of the Black Carbon Review Panel can
