the charge to the SAB for the 

consultation, and other supplemental 

materials in support of the two public 

teleconferences will be placed on the 

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

in advance of the teleconference and 

meeting. 

Procedures for Providing Public Input: 

Public comment for consideration by 

EPA’s federal advisory committees and 

panels has a different purpose from 

public comment provided to EPA 

program offices. Therefore, the process 

for submitting comments to a federal 

advisory committee is different from the 

process used to submit comments to an 

EPA program office. 

Federal advisory committees and 

panels, including scientific advisory 

committees, provide independent 

advice to EPA. Members of the public 

can submit comments for a federal 

advisory committee to consider as it 

develops advice for EPA. Input from the 

public to the SAB will have the most 

impact if it provides specific scientific 

or technical information or analysis for 

SAB panels to consider or if it relates to 

the clarity or accuracy of the technical 

information. Members of the public 

wishing to provide comment should 

contact the Designated Federal Officer 

directly at the contact information 

provided. 

Oral Statements: In general, 

individuals or groups requesting an oral 

presentation at a teleconference will be 

limited to three minutes. Those 

interested in being placed on the public 

speakers list for either the September 6 

and October 5, 2011 teleconferences 

should contact Dr. Kooyoomjian at the 

contact information provided above no 

later than noon on September 2, 2011 

for the September 6, 2011 

teleconference, and no later than 

October 3, 2011 for the October 5, 2011 

teleconference. 

Written Statements: Written 

statements should be supplied to the 

DFO via e-mail at the contact 

information noted by noon September 2, 

2011 for the September 6, 2011 

teleconference, and no later than 

Monday, October 3, 2011 for the 

October 5, 2011 teleconference, so that 

the information may be made available 

to the members of the augmented RAC 

and the public for their consideration. 

Written statements should be supplied 

in one of the following electronic 

formats: Adobe Acrobat PDF, MS Word, 

MS PowerPoint, or Rich Text files in 

IBM–PC/Windows98/2000/XP format. It 

is the SAB Staff office general policy to 

post written comments on the Web page 

for the advisory meeting or 

teleconference. Submitters are requested 

to provide an unsigned version of each 

document, because the SAB Staff Office 

does not publish documents with 

signatures on its Web sites. Members of 

the public should be aware that their 

personal contact information, if 

included in any written comments, may 

be posted to the SAB Web site. 

Copyrighted material will not be posted 

without explicit permission of the

Accessibility: For information on 

access or services for individuals with 

disabilities, please contact Dr. 

Kooyoomjian at (202) 564–2064, or email kooyoomjian.jack@epa.gov. To 

request accommodation of a disability, 

please contact Dr. Kooyoomjian 

preferably at least ten days prior to the 

teleconference or meeting to give as 

much time as possible to process your 

request.

Officer (DFO). Dr. Nugent may be 

contacted at the EPA Science Advisory 

Board (1400R), U.S. Environmental 

Protection Agency, 1200 Pennsylvania 

Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20460; 

or by telephone/voice mail at (202) 564–

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The SAB 

was established pursuant to the 

Environmental Research, Development, 

and Demonstration Authorization Act 

(ERDAA), codified at 42 U.S.C. 4365, to 

provide independent scientific and 

technical advice to the EPA 

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. Pursuant to FACA and EPA policy, 

notice is hereby given that the SAB will 

hold a public teleconference to conduct 

a quality review of an SAB draft report 

entitled Peer Review of EPA’s Draft 

National-Scale Mercury Risk 

Assessment (08/04/1 Draft). The SAB 

will comply with the provisions of 

FACA and all appropriate SAB Staff 

Office procedural policies. 

Background: EPA is considering 

regulating the emissions of hazardous 

air pollutants (HAPs) released from 

coal-burning electric generating units in 

the United States (U.S. EGUs) under 

Section 112(n)(1)(A) of the Clean Air 

Act (CAA). EPA developed a draft risk 

assessment for mercury, entitled 

Technical Support Document: Nationalscale Mercury Risk Assessment. The 

draft assessment considers the nature 

and magnitude of the potential risk to 

public health posed by current U.S. 

EGU mercury emissions and the nature 

and magnitude of the potential risk 

posed by U.S. EGU mercury in the 

future, once all anticipated CAA-related 

regulations potentially reducing 

mercury from U.S. EGUs are in place. 

EPA’s Office of Air and Radiation 

requested peer review of this draft 

document. The SAB Mercury Review 

Panel has prepared a review report on 

EPA’s draft technical document. The 

Charted SAB will conduct a quality 

view of the SAB Panel’s draft review 

report.
