SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background: The Advisory Council on 

Clean Air Compliance Analysis 

(Council) is a Federal advisory 

committee chartered under the Federal 

Advisory Committee Act (FACA), as 

amended, 5 U.S.C., App. The Council is 

charged with providing advice, 

information and recommendations to 

the Agency on the economic issues 

associated with programs implemented 

under the Clean Air Act and its 

Amendments. Pursuant to a requirement 

under section 812 of the 1990 Clean Air 

Act Amendments, EPA’s Office of Air 

and Radiation (OAR) conducts periodic 

studies to assess the benefits and the 

costs of the Clean Air Act. The Council 

has been the chief reviewing body for 

these studies and has issued advice on 

a retrospective study issued in 1997, a 

prospective study issued in 1999, and, 

since 2003, analytic blueprints for a 

second prospective study on the costs 

and benefits of clean air programs 

covering the years 1990—2020. 

EPA’s Office of Air and Radiation is 

conducting a regulatory impact analysis 

to support a final regulation for the 

National Ambient Air Quality Standards 

on particulate matter. As part of this 

effort, EPA is requesting the Council to 

provide advice regarding an interim 

method for estimating future air 

emissions. In response to this request, 

the Council will conduct a consultation 

on this topic. Background document(s) 

for this review will be posted on the 

OAR Web site at: http://www.epa.gov/ 

ttn/ecas/articles.html. For additional 

technical information, Dr. Chappell may 

be contacted at the e-mail and phone 

number noted above. The meeting 

agenda and any other background 

materials will be posted on the SAB 

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

ACTION: Notice; Summary of information 

presented at public meeting. 

SUMMARY: On May 18, 2006, CDC hosted 

a public meeting on the subject of 

infectious disease threats associated 

with exotic animal importation and 

trade. CDC announced the public 

meeting through a Federal Register 

notice on April 20, 2006 (Volume 71, 

Number 76, Page 20402–20403). The 

public meeting was held at 130 

Clairemont Ave., Decatur, GA 30030, 

from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. 

Background: Zoonoses are diseases 

that can be transmitted from animals to 

people. Wild exotic animals may carry 

a variety of known and emerging 

zoonotic pathogens. The American 

Veterinary Medical Association 

(AVMA), the Council of State and 

Territorial Epidemiologists (CSTE), and 

the National Association of State Public 

Health Veterinarians (NASPHV) have 

issued position statements calling for a 

coordinated federal approach to better 

control infectious disease risks 

associated with the exotic animal trade. 

To gather information on the topic, CDC 

organized this public meeting to share 

information concerning infectious 

disease risks associated with exotic 

animal importation and trade. 

Meeting Summary: Five panelists 

were present to answer potential 

questions generated by public 

comments; these panelists represented 

NASPHV, HHS/CDC, the United States 

Department of Agriculture (USDA) 

Animal and Plant Health Inspection 

Service (APHIS) Animal Care, HHS/
