Science Advisory Board Panel to 

discuss three planned actions identified 

in the agency’s regulatory agenda and 

their supporting science. 

DATES: The public teleconference will

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Any 

member of the public wishing to obtain

meeting may contact Dr. Angela Nugent, 

Designated Federal Officer (DFO), EPA 

Science Advisory Board Staff Office

Agency, 1200 Pennsylvania Avenue

information about the SAB as well as

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The SAB 

was established pursuant to the 

Environmental Research, Development, 

and Demonstration Authorization Act 

(ERDDAA), codified at 42 U.S.C. 4365, 

to provide independent scientific and 

technical advice to the Administrator on 

the technical basis for Agency positions 

and regulations. The SAB is a Federal 

Advisory Committee chartered under 

the Federal Advisory Committee Act 

(FACA), 5 U.S.C., App. 2. The SAB will 

comply with the provisions of FACA 

and all appropriate SAB Staff Office 

procedural policies. Pursuant to FACA 

and EPA policy, notice is hereby given 

that the SAB will hold a public meeting 

to discuss and deliberate on the topics 

below. 

As noted in the Federal Register 

Notice announcing a meeting of the 

chartered SAB on March 7–8, 2013 (78 

FR 9689–9690), the EPA has recently 

underscored the need to routinely 

inform the SAB about proposed and 

planned agency actions that have a 

scientific or technical basis. 

Accordingly, the agency provided notice 

to the SAB that the Office of 

Management and Budget published the 

‘‘Unified (Regulatory) Agenda’’ on the 

Web on December 21, 2012 (http:// 

www.reginfo.gov/public). On March 7–8, 

2013, the chartered SAB discussed 

whether it should provide advice and 

comment on the adequacy of the 

scientific and technical basis for EPA 

actions included in the Unified 

(Regulatory) Agenda. The chartered SAB 

identified three planned actions for 

additional fact-finding [Effluent 

Guidelines and Standards for 

Unconventional Oil and Gas Extraction 

Including Coalbed Methane and Shale 

Gas Extraction (2040 AF35); Revised 

Regulations for Environmental 

Radiation Protection Standards for 

Nuclear Power Plant Operations (2060 

AR12), and Petroleum Refinery Sector 

Risk and Technology Review (RTR) and 

New Source Performance Standards 

(2060 AQ75), which EPA plans to 

jointly propose with Petroleum Refinery 

Sector for Flares (2060–AR69)]. The 

chartered SAB will discuss information 

gathered relating to these planned
