SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

1. How To Submit Information to E–

Docket 

EPA has established an official public 

docket for information pertaining to this 

action, Docket ID No. ORD–2004–0003. 

The official public docket is the 

collection of materials, excluding 

Confidential Business Information (CBI) 

or other information whose disclosure is 

restricted by statute, that is available for 

public viewing at the Office of 

Environmental Information (OEI) Docket 

in the Headquarters EPA Docket Center 

(EPA/DC), EPA West Building, Room 

B102, 1301 Constitution Ave., NW, 

Washington, DC. The EPA Docket 

Center Public Reading Room is open 

from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday 

through Friday, excluding legal 

holidays. The telephone number for the 

Public Reading Room is (202) 566–1744, 

and the telephone number for the OEI 

Docket is (202) 566–1752; facsimile: 

(202) 566–1753; or e-mail: 

ORD.Docket@epa.gov.

An electronic version of the official 

public docket is available through EPA’s 

electronic public docket and comment 

system, EPA Dockets. You may use EPA 

Dockets at http://www.epa.gov/edocket/

to submit or view public comments, to 

access the index listing of the contents 

of the official public docket, and to view 

those documents in the public docket 

that are available electronically. Once in 

the system, select ‘‘search,’’ then key in 

the appropriate docket identification 

number. 

Certain types of information will not 

be placed in EPA Dockets. As indicated 

above, information claimed as CBI and 

other information whose disclosure is 

restricted by statute is not included in 

the official public docket; the same 

information will not be available for 

public viewing in EPA Dockets. 

Copyrighted material also will not be 

placed in EPA Dockets but will be 

referenced there and available as 

printed material in the official public 

docket. 

Persons submitting information 

should note that EPA’s policy makes the 

information available as received and at 

no charge for public viewing in EPA 

Dockets. This policy applies to 

information submitted electronically or 

in paper, except where restricted by 

copyright, CBI or statute. 

Unless restricted as above, 

information submitted on computer 

disks that are mailed or delivered to the 

docket will be transferred to EPA 

Dockets. Physical objects will be 

photographed, where practical, and the 

photograph will be placed in EPA 

Dockets along with a brief description 

written by the docket staff. 

You may submit information 

electronically, by mail, by facsimile or 

by hand delivery/courier. To ensure 

proper receipt by EPA, include the 

appropriate docket identification 

number with your submission. Please 

adhere to the specified submitting 

period. Information received or 

submitted past the close date will be 

marked ‘‘late’’ and will only be 

considered if time permits. 

If you submit information 

electronically, EPA recommends that 

you include your name, mailing 

address, and an e-mail address or other 

details for contacting you. Also include 

these contact details on the outside of 

any disk or CD ROM you submit and in 

any cover letter accompanying the disk 

or CD ROM. This ensures that you can 

be identified as the person submitting 

the information and allows EPA to 

contact you in case the Agency cannot 

read what you submit due to technical 

difficulties or needs to clarify issues 

raised by what you submit. If EPA 

cannot read what you submit due to 

technical difficulties and cannot contact 

you for clarification, this situation may 

delay or prevent the Agency’s 

consideration of the information. 

To access EPA’s electronic public 

docket from the EPA Internet Home 

Page, select ‘‘Information Sources,’’

‘‘Dockets,’’ and ‘‘EPA Dockets.’’ Once in 

the system, select ‘‘search,’’ and then 

key in Docket ID No. ORD–2004–0003. 

The system is an ‘‘anonymous access’’

system, which means EPA will not 

know your identity, e-mail address or 

other contact details unless you provide 

it with the information you submit. 

Information may be sent by electronic 

mail (e-mail) to ORD.Docket@epa.gov,

Attention Docket ID No. ORD–2004–

0003. In contrast to EPA’s electronic 

public docket, EPA’s e-mail system is 

not an ‘‘anonymous access’’ system. If 

you send an e-mail directly to the 

docket without going through EPA’s 

electronic public docket, EPA’s e-mail 

system automatically captures your email address, and it becomes part of the 

information in the official public docket 

and is made available in EPA’s 

electronic public docket. 

You may submit information on a 

disk or CD ROM that you mail to the 

OEI Docket mailing address. Files will 

be accepted in WordPerfect, Word or 

ASCII file format. Avoid the use of 

special characters and any form of 

encryption. 

If you provide information in writing, 

please submit one unbound original, 

with pages numbered consecutively, 

and three copies. For attachments, 

provide an index, number pages 

consecutively with the main text, and 

submit an unbound original and three 

copies.

DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND 

HUMAN SERVICES 

Office of the Secretary 

Findings of Scientific Misconduct

AGENCY: Office of the Secretary, HHS.

ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that 

the Office of Research Integrity (ORI) 

and the Acting Assistant Secretary for 

Health have taken final action in the 

following case: 

Ali Sultan, M.D., Ph.D., Harvard 

School of Public Health: On October 19, 

2004, the U.S. Public Health Service 

(PHS) entered into a Voluntary 

Exclusion Agreement with the President 

and Fellows of Harvard College 

(Harvard) and Ali Sultan, M.D., Ph.D., 

former Assistant Professor of 

Immunology and Infectious Diseases at 

the Harvard School of Public Health 

(HSPH). Based on HSPH’s inquiry 

report, the respondent’s admission, and 

additional analysis conducted by ORI in 

its oversight review, PHS found that Dr. 

Sultan engaged in scientific misconduct 

in research funded by National Institute 

of Allergy and Infectious Diseases 

(NIAID), National Institutes of Health 

(NIH), grant 1 P01 AI060332–01, 

‘‘Chemical genetics and malaria drug 

development,’’ Subproject 2, ‘‘Screening 

of target-rich environment.’’

Specifically, PHS and Harvard found 

that: 

• Dr. Ali Sultan plagiarized text, 

plagiarized three figures showing results 

of an immunofluorescence assay, a 

phosphorimage, and northern blot 

analysis (Figures 3, 4, and 5, 

respectively), and falsified the data as 

results of experiments on Plasmodium 

bergheii, instead of P. falciparum as 

reported in a subproject of the PHS 

grant application 1 P01 AI060332–01, 

‘‘Chemical genetics and malaria drug 

development.’’

• Dr. Ali Sultan fabricated portions of 

an e-mail from his postdoctoral student 

that he presented to the HSPH inquiry 

committee purportedly to falsely 

implicate the student in the submission 

of the plagiarized materials for the grant 

application. 

The Voluntary Exclusion Agreement 

states that for a period of three (3) years, 

beginning on October 19, 2004: 

(1) Dr. Sultan agreed to exclude 

himself from any contracting or 

subcontracting with any agency of the 

United States Government and from 

eligibility or involvement in 

nonprocurement programs of the United 

States Government as defined in the 

debarment regulations at 45 CFR part 

76; and 

(2) Dr. Sultan agreed to exclude 

himself from serving in any advisory 

capacity to PHS including but not 

limited to service on any PHS advisory 

committee, board, and/or peer review 

committee, or as a consultant.
