Advisory Board can be found on the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant 

to the Federal Advisory Committee Act, 

5 U.S.C., App. 2 (FACA), notice is 

hereby given that the EPA Science 

Advisory Board will hold a public 

meeting to conduct two reviews of draft 

SAB committee reports and to conduct 

other business as noted. The SAB was 

established pursuant to 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 under FACA. The 

SAB will comply with the provisions of 

FACA and all appropriate SAB Staff 

Office procedural policies. 

Background: (a) SAB Quality Review 

of the Draft SAB Report on Reactive 

Nitrogen in the United States. The 

Chartered Science Advisory Board will 

conduct a review of the SAB Integrated 

Nitrogen Committee (INC) draft report: 

Reactive Nitrogen in the United States; 

An Analysis of Inputs, Flows, 

Consequences, and Management 

Options from 1 p.m. until not later than 

4 p.m. on Wednesday, September 23, 

2009. Reactive nitrogen, a form of 

nitrogen consisting mainly of 

ammonium and nitrate, is ‘‘fixed’’ by 

natural or human-driven processes or 

recycled from decaying organic matter. 

Increasing quantities of reactive 

nitrogen released by human activities, 

such as the production and use of 

synthetic fertilizers, burning of fossil 

fuel, and planting of nitrogen-fixing 

crops currently surpasses the amount of 

nitrogen fixed by natural processes (e.g., 

microbial activities, wildfire). Adverse 

environmental effects may occur when 

reactive nitrogen occurs in amounts that 

exceed what the ecosystem can 

normally use or recycle. Adverse effects 

may include degradation of air and 

water quality, harmful algae blooms, 

hypoxia, fish kills, loss of drinking 

water supplies, loss of biodiversity, 

forest declines, and human health 

effects. 

The SAB Integrated Nitrogen 

Committee undertook this study to 

assess linkages among the 

environmental effects of reactive 

nitrogen and to explore their 

implications for nitrogen research and 

risk management. The study 

recommends a more integrated 

approach to reactive nitrogen research 

and identifies opportunities for 

integrated approaches for nitrogen 

management. Information about the 

work of the SAB Integrated Nitrogen 

Committee is available on the SAB Web 

site at http://yosemite.epa.gov/sab/sab

product.nsf/fedrgstr_activites/

Nitrogen%20Project?OpenDocument. 

(b) SAB Quality Review of the Draft 

Radiation Advisory Committee Report 

on Radiogenic Cancer Risk. The 

chartered Science Advisory Board will 

conduct a quality review of the draft 

report from its Radiation Advisory 

Committee during its teleconference 

scheduled from 1 p.m. until 4 p.m. on 

Thursday, September 24, 2009. EPA’s 

Office of Air and Radiation requested an 

SAB review of a draft document entitled 

EPA Radiogenic Cancer Risk Models 

and Projections for the U.S. Population 

dated December 2008. EPA’s draft 

document discusses a revised approach 

to cancer dose-response assessment for 

radionuclides, based on 

recommendations in the National 

Academies of Science 2005 report on 

Biological Effects of Ionizing Radiation 

(known as the BEIR VII report) as 

modified and expanded for EPA’s 

purposes. At this teleconference, the 

SAB will conduct a quality review of 

the SAB Radiation Advisory 

Committee’s draft advisory on this EPA 

draft document. Information about this 

work of the SAB Radiation Advisory 

Committee is available on the SAB Web 

site at http://yosemite.epa.gov/sab/

sabproduct.nsf/fedrgstr_activites/%E2%

80%9CRevised%20Book%E2%80%9D?

OpenDocument. The SAB will also 

discuss plans for future SAB advisory 

activities. 

Availability of Meeting Materials: The 

agenda and other materials in support of 

these meetings will be placed on the 

SAB Web site at http://www.epa.gov/sab 

in advance of each meeting. 

Procedures for Providing Public Input: 

Interested members of the public may 

submit relevant written or oral 

information for the SAB to consider 

during this teleconference. Oral 

Statements: In general, individuals or 

groups requesting time to make an oral 

presentation at a public SAB 

teleconference will be limited to three 

minutes, with no more than one-half 

hour for all speakers. To be placed on 

the public speakers list for the 

September 23 and September 24, 2009 

teleconferences, interested individuals 

should contact Mr. Thomas Miller, DFO, 

in writing (preferably by e-mail), by 

September 14, 2009 at the contact 

information provided above. Written 

Statements: Written statements relevant 

to the September 23 and September 24, 

2009 teleconferences should be received 

in the SAB Staff Office by September 15, 

2009 so that the information may be 

made available to the SAB for their 

consideration prior to the teleconference 

meeting. Written statements should be 

supplied to the DFO via e-mail to 

miller.tom@epa.gov (acceptable file 

format: Adobe Acrobat PDF, 

WordPerfect, MS Word, MS PowerPoint, 

or Rich Text files in IBM–PC/Windows 

98/2000/XP format). Submitters are 

asked to provide versions of each 

document submitted with and without 

signatures, because the SAB Staff Office 

does not publish documents with 

signatures on its Web sites. 

Accessibility: For information on 

access or services for individuals with 

disabilities, please contact Mr. Thomas 

Miller at (202) 343–9982, or miller.tom

@epa.gov. To request accommodation of 

a disability, please contact Mr. Miller, 

preferably at least 10 days prior to the 

meeting, to give EPA as much time as 

possible to process your request.

SUMMARY: Pursuant to the provisions of 

the Privacy Act of 1974 (5 U.S.C. 552a), 

EPA’s Office of Pollution Prevention 

and Toxics (OPPT) is providing notice 

of its proposal to amend an existing 

system of records (SOR) by changing the 

title of ‘‘Lead-Based Paint System of 

Records’’ (LPSOR) to the ‘‘Federal Leadbased Paint Program System of Records’’ 

(FLPPSOR). FLPPSOR stores 

information in both electronic and hardcopy formats and contains information 

about individuals who: have applied for 

certification to conduct lead-based paint 

and renovation activities; are students 

taking classes in lead-based paint and 

renovation activities; or have been 

identified to provide training in leadbased paint and renovation activities. 

On April 22, 2008, EPA published the 

Renovation, Repair, and Painting 

Program rule in the Federal Register 

with an effective date of June 23, 2008. 

The Renovation, Repair, and Painting 

rule establishes requirements for

technicians; certifying renovators, dustsampling technicians and renovation 

firms; accrediting providers of renovator
