Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 23 / Wednesday, February 4, 2015 / Notices 6087 

nominations of women and men of all 

racial and ethnic groups. 

The EPA SAB Staff Office will 

acknowledge receipt of nominations. 

The names and biosketches of qualified 

nominees identified by respondents to 

this Federal Register notice, and 

additional experts identified by the SAB 

Staff, will be posted in a List of 

Candidates on the CASAC Web site at 

http://www.epa.gov/casac. Public 

comments on this List of Candidates 

will be accepted for 21 days. The public 

will be requested to provide relevant 

information or other documentation on 

nominees that the SAB Staff Office 

should consider in evaluating 

candidates. 

For the EPA SAB Staff Office a 

balanced review panel includes 

candidates who possess the necessary 

domains of knowledge, the relevant 

scientific perspectives (which, among 

other factors, can be influenced by work 

history and affiliation), and the 

collective breadth of experience to 

adequately address the charge. In 

forming this expert panel, the SAB Staff 

Office will consider public comments 

on the List of Candidates, information 

provided by the candidates themselves, 

and background information 

independently gathered by the SAB 

Staff Office. Selection criteria to be used 

for panel membership include: (a) 

Scientific and/or technical expertise, 

knowledge, and experience (primary 

factors); (b) availability and willingness 

to serve; (c) absence of financial 

conflicts of interest; (d) absence of an 

appearance of a lack of impartiality; (e) 

skills working in committees, 

subcommittees and advisory panels; 

and, (f) for the panel as a whole, 

diversity of expertise and viewpoints. 

The SAB Staff Office’s evaluation of 

an absence of financial conflicts of 

interest will include a review of the 

‘‘Confidential Financial Disclosure 

Form for Special Government 

Employees Serving on Federal Advisory 

Committees at the U.S. Environmental 

Protection Agency’’ (EPA Form 3110– 

48). This confidential form allows 

government officials to determine 

whether there is a statutory conflict 

between a person’s public 

responsibilities (which includes 

membership on an EPA federal advisory 

committee) and private interests and 

activities, or the appearance of a lack of 

impartiality, as defined by federal 

regulation. The form may be viewed and 

downloaded from the following URL 

address http://www.epa.gov/sab/pdf/

epaform3110-48.pdf. 

The approved policy under which the 

EPA SAB Office selects subcommittees 

and review panels is described in the 

following document: Overview of the 

Panel Formation Process at the 

Environmental Protection Agency 

Science Advisory Board (EPA–SAB–EC– 

02–010), which is posted on the SAB

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

Pursuant to Title IV of TSCA, Lead 

Exposure Reduction, 15 U.S.C. 2681– 

2692, and regulations promulgated 

thereunder, States and Tribes that 

choose to apply for authorization of a 

lead-based paint activities program 

(TSCA Section 402(a) and 40 CFR part 

745, subpart L) and a renovation 

program (TSCA Sections 402(c) and 

406(b) and 40 CFR part 745, subpart E) 

must submit a complete application to 

the appropriate Regional EPA office for 

review. Complete, final applications 

will be subject to a public comment 

period, and reviewed by EPA within 

180 days of receipt. To receive EPA 

approval, a State or Tribe must 

demonstrate that its program is at least 

as protective of human health and the 

environment as the federal program, and 

will provide for adequate enforcement. 

As determined by EPA’s review and 

assessment, the Bois Forte application 

successfully demonstrated that the 

Tribe’s lead-based paint activities and 

renovation programs achieve the 

protectiveness and enforcement criteria, 

and have otherwise satisfied the 

statutory criteria required for federal 

authorization. Furthermore, no public 

comments were received, during or 

following the public comment period, 

regarding any aspect of the Bois Forte 

application. EPA announced solicitation 

for public comment regarding the 

application in the Federal Register of 

June 23, 2014 (79 FR 35540) (FRL– 

9912–59–Region 5: EPA–R05–OPPT– 

2014–0360). 

II. Federal Overfilling 

Section 404(b) of TSCA makes it 

unlawful for any person to violate, or 

fail or refuse to comply with, any 

requirement of an approved State or 

Tribal program. Therefore, EPA reserves 

the right to exercise its enforcement 

authority under TSCA against a 

violation of, or a failure or refusal to 

comply with, any requirement of the 

Bois Forte Lead Program to the extent 

that such requirement is consistent with 

federal law. 

III. Withdrawal of Authorization 

Pursuant to TSCA section 404(c), 15 

U.S.C. 2684(c), the Administrator may 

withdraw a State or Tribal program 

authorization, after notice and 

opportunity for corrective action, if the 

program is not being administered or 

enforced in compliance with standards, 

regulations and other requirements 

established under the authorization. The 

procedures EPA will follow for the 

withdrawal of an authorization are 

found at 40 CFR 745.324(i).

IV. Regulatory Assessment 

Requirements 

Certain Acts and Executive Orders 

EPA’s actions on State or Tribal leadbased paint activities, renovation, and 

pre-renovation education program 

applications are informal adjudications, 

not rules. Therefore, this action: 

• Is not a ‘‘significant regulatory 

action’’ subject to review by the Office 

of Management and Budget under 

Executive Order 12866 (58 FR 51735, 

October 4, 1993); 

• Does not impose an information 

collection burden under the provisions 

of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 

U.S.C. 3501 et seq.); 

• Does not have a significant 

economic impact on a substantial 

number of small entities under the 

Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 

et seq.); 

• Does not contain any unfunded 

mandate or significantly or uniquely 

affect small governments, as described 

in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act 

of 1995 (Pub. L.104–4); 

• Does not have Federalism 

implications as specified in Executive 

Order 13132 (64 FR 43255, August 10, 

1999); 

• Is not an economically significant 

regulatory action based on health or 

safety risks subject to Executive Order 

13045 (62 FR 19885, April 23, 1997); 

• Is not a significant regulatory action 

subject to Executive Order 13211 (66 FR 

28355, May 22, 2001); 

• Is not subject to the requirements of 

Section 12(d) of the National 

Technology Transfer and Advancement 

Act of 1995 (15 U.S.C. 272 note) because 

this action does not involve technical 

standards; and 

• Does not provide the EPA with the 

discretionary authority to address, as 

appropriate, disproportionate human 

health or environmental effects, using 

practicable and legally permissible 

methods, under Executive Order 12898 

(59 FR 7629, February 16, 1994). 

This action does have tribal 

implications as specified by Executive 

Order 13175 (FR 67249, November 9, 

2000). Although this action is not a 

regulatory, legislative or policy action, 

and although this action will not impose 

substantial direct costs on tribal 

governments or preempt tribal law, this 

action may be considered an ‘‘other’’ 

action as included in the definition of 

‘‘Policies that have tribal implications’’ 

in Section 1 of Executive Order 13175. 

In the process that lead to this action, 

EPA adhered to the criteria in Section 

3, as applicable, in Executive Order 

13175.

Commission (FCC or Commission) 

invites the general public and other

broadcast station, or for a major change 

in an authorized AM broadcast station, 

to make a satisfactory showing that 

objectionable interference will not result 

to an authorized AM station as a 

condition for its acceptance if new or

modification that would result in 

spacing that fail to meet any of the 

separation requirements to include a 

showing that an adjustment has been 

made to the radiated signal which 

effectively results in a site-to-site
