Advisory Subcommittee under FACA. 

The EEC will provide advice through 

the chartered SAB and will comply with 

the provisions of FACA and all 

appropriate SAB Staff Office procedural 

policies. 

Background: EPA has a goal to 

develop and apply environmental 

technologies that are used to support 

environmental protection in a manner 

that increases efficiency. EPA is 

considering how to promote innovation 

within EPA and in the public and 

private sector so that technologies are 

more efficient. EPA is also considering 

how to bring lifecycle analysis (LCA) 

into the EPA’s practices and procedures 

in support of EPA’s efforts to produce, 

generate and develop environmental 

technologies. EPA is considering how to 

potentially apply LCA to achieve these 

objectives and goals. The EEC will 

receive briefings regarding the current 

status of EPA’s research activities 

associated with innovation and use of 

lifecycle analysis in technology 

development. 

Also, EPA is conducting research to 

evaluate the technical aspects of carbon 

dioxide geologic sequestration. EPA 

released guidance for pilot geologic 

sequestration projects in March, 2007. 

This guidance only addresses 

experimental pilot projects anticipated 

over the next several years. The EEC 

will receive briefings regarding the 

current status of EPA’s research 

activities associated with carbon 

sequestration. 

In addition, in 2007, the EEC through 

the chartered SAB provided advice on 

EPA’s Draft Sustainability Research 

Strategy and multi-year research plan 

developed by EPA’s Office of Research 

and Development (ORD). The strategy 

proposed a scientific framework for a 

more systematic and holistic approach 

to environmental protection that takes 

into consideration the complex nature 

of environmental issues and the welfare 

of future generations, and the multi-year 

research plan described ORD’s research 

to meet the short-term and long-term 

goals of the Research Strategy. The EEC 

will receive briefings regarding the 

current status of EPA’s research 

activities associated with sustainability.

of Research and Development’s (ORD)

Science and Technology for 

Sustainability Multi-year Plan is
