the potential cancer hazard of iAs and 

a quantitative dose-response cancer 

assessment for iAs. The draft assessment 

also provides a disposition of SAB’s 

previous review comments and 

recommendations. 

In response to the Administrator’s 

request, ORD is requesting that the SAB 

evaluate and comment on EPA’s 

interpretation and implementation of 

the key SAB (2007) recommendations in 

the revised draft assessment. ORD is 

requesting an expedited and focused 

review of the draft assessment in three 

areas: Evaluation of epidemiological 

literature; dose-response modeling 

approaches; and the sensitivity analysis 

of the exposure assumptions used in the 

risk assessment. In response to this 

request, the SAB is convening a 

workgroup of the chartered SAB to lead 

this expedited and focused review and 

to assess the responsiveness of EPA’s 

implementation of the previous SAB 

recommendations. The SAB 

workgroup’s draft report will be 

reviewed and approved by the full 

Board in a subsequent public meeting to 

be announced in a separate Federal 

Register notice. Information about this 

SAB advisory activity can be found on

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background: Pursuant to the Federal 

Advisory Committee Act, Public Law 

92–463 5 U.S.C., App. 2 (FACA), notice 

is hereby given that the CASAC Carbon 

Monoxide Panel will hold a public 

meeting to peer review two draft 

documents related to the NAAQS 

review for carbon monoxide and that 

the chartered CASAC will hold a public 

teleconference to review and approve 

the Panel’s draft reports. The Clean Air 

Scientific Advisory Committee (CASAC) 

was established under section 109(d)(2) 

of the Clean Air Act (CAA or Act) (42 

U.S.C. 7409) as an independent 

scientific advisory committee. CASAC 

provides advice, information and 

recommendations on the scientific and 

technical aspects of air quality criteria 

and national ambient air quality 

standards (NAAQS) under sections 108 

and 109 of the Act. The CASAC Panel 

and chartered CASAC will comply with 

the provisions of FACA and all 

appropriate SAB Staff Office procedural 

policies. 

Section 109(d)(1) of the CAA requires 

that the Agency periodically review and 

revise, as appropriate, the air quality 

criteria and the National Ambient Air 

Quality Standard (NAAQS) for the six 

‘‘criteria’’ air pollutants, including 

carbon monoxide (CO). EPA is 

conducting scientific assessments to 

mstockstill on DSKH9S0YB1PROD with NOTICES

Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 39 / Monday, March 1, 2010 / Notices 9207 

review the primary (health-based) 

NAAQS for CO. CASAC has previously 

provided consultative advice on EPA’s 

Plan for Review of the National Ambient 

Air Quality Standards for Carbon 

Monoxide, the first document in this 

review of the CO NAAQS. CASAC held 

a public meeting in Chapel Hill, North 

Carolina on May 12–13, 2009 (as 

announced in 74 FR 15265–15266) to 

review the first draft Integrated Science 

Assessment for Carbon Monoxide and 

provide consultative advice on the 

Carbon Monoxide National Ambient Air 

Quality Standards: Scope and Methods 

Plan for Risk and Exposure Assessment. 

CASAC reviewed the second draft 

Integrated Science Assessment for 

Carbon Monoxide and the first draft 

Risk and Exposure Assessment to 

Support the Review of the Carbon 

Monoxide Primary National Ambient 

Air Quality Standards during the 

November 16–17, 2009 public meeting 

(as announced in 74 FR 54042–54043). 

The CASAC advisory reports are 

available on the EPA Web site at http:// 

www.epa.gov/casac. 

The purpose of the March 22 and 23, 

2010 meeting is for the CASAC Panel to 

conduct peer reviews of the Risk and 

Exposure Assessment to Support the 

Review of the Carbon Monoxide Primary 

National Ambient Air Quality 

Standards: Second External Review 

Draft and the Policy Assessment for the 

Review of the Carbon Monoxide 

National Ambient Air Quality 

Standards: External Review Draft 

recently issued by EPA’s Office of Air 

and Radiation (OAR). The purpose of 

the Policy Assessment is to ‘‘bridge the 

gap’’ between the scientific information 

and the judgments required of the 

Administrator in determining whether it 

is appropriate to retain or revise the 

carbon monoxide standards. The draft 

Policy Assessment builds upon the key 

scientific and technical information 

contained in the Agency’s final 

Integrated Science Assessment for 

Carbon Monoxide (January 2010), as 

well as the Risk and Exposure 

Assessment. The chartered CASAC will 

review and approve the Panel’s draft 

reports by a public conference call on 

April 19, 2010. 

Technical Contacts: Any questions 

concerning EPA’s Risk and Exposure 

Assessment to Support the Review of the 

Carbon Monoxide Primary National 

Ambient Air Quality Standards: Second
