II. Description of Programs and 

Potential Disclosure of Information 

Claimed as Confidential Business 

Information to Contractors 

EPA’s Office of Atmospheric 

Programs (OAP) has responsibility for 

protecting public health and the 

environment by addressing climate 

change, protecting the ozone layer, and 

improving regional air quality. In 

response to the FY2008 Consolidated 

Appropriations Act (H.R. 2764; Pub. L. 

110–161), EPA created the Greenhouse 

Gas Reporting Program (GHGRP), 40 

CFR part 98 (part 98), which requires 

reporting of greenhouse gas (GHG) data 

and other relevant information from 

large sources and suppliers in the 

United States. The purpose of part 98 is 

to collect accurate and timely GHG data 

to inform future policy decisions. Some 

of the information submitted is 

designated or claimed to be CBI. Such 

information is handled in accordance 

with EPA’s regulations in 40 CFR part 

2, subpart B and in accordance with 

EPA procedures that are consistent with 

those regulations. 

EPA has, at times, determined that it 

is necessary to disclose to EPA 

contractors certain information that has 

been designated or claimed as CBI. 

When this occurs, the corresponding 

contract must address the appropriate 

use and handling of the information by 

the contractor. In every instance, the 

contractor must require its personnel 

who need access to information 

designated or claimed as CBI to sign 

written agreements before they are 

granted access to the data. 

In accordance with 40 CFR 2.301(h), 

EPA has determined that the 

contractors, subcontractors, and 

grantees (collectively referred to as 

‘‘contractors’’) listed below require 

access to data submitted to EPA under 

the GHGRP that is designated or 

claimed as CBI. EPA is providing notice 

and an opportunity to comment and is 

issuing this Federal Register notice to 

inform all reporters of information 

under part 98 that EPA plans to grant 

access to material that may be 

designated or claimed as CBI to the 

contractors identified below, as needed.

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice of meeting. 

SUMMARY: Under the Federal Advisory 

Committee Act, Public Law 92463, EPA 

gives notice of a meeting of the Good 

Neighbor Environmental Board (Board). 

The Board usually meets three times 

each calendar year, twice at different

Mexico, and once in Washington, DC. It 

was created in 1992 by the Enterprise

Implementing authority was delegated 

to the Administrator of EPA under

responsible for providing advice to the 

President and the Congress on 

environmental and infrastructure issues 

and needs within the States contiguous 

to Mexico in order to improve the 

quality of life of persons residing on the 

United States side of the border. The 

statute calls for the Board to have 

representatives from U.S. Government 

agencies; the states of Arizona, 

California, New Mexico and Texas; and 

tribal and private organizations with 

experience in environmental and 

infrastructure issues along the U.S.- 

Mexico border. 

The purpose of the meeting is to 

continue discussion on the Board’s 14th 

report, which is focusing on the 

environmental and economic benefits of 

renewable energy development in the 

border region. Panel discussions will 

take place on economic opportunities 

and community impacts in the U.S.- 

Mexico border region. A copy of the 

meeting agenda will be posted at http:// 

www.epa.gov/ocem/gneb.

Environmental Board will hold an open
