information concerning the SAB can be 

found on the EPA Web site at http:// 

www.epa.gov/sab. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The SAB 

was established pursuant to the 

Environmental Research, Development, 

and Demonstration Authorization Act 

(ERDDAA), codified at 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 chartered under 

the Federal Advisory Committee Act 

(FACA), 5 U.S.C., App. 2. The SAB will 

comply with the provisions of FACA 

and all appropriate SAB Staff Office 

procedural policies. Pursuant to FACA 

and EPA policy, notice is hereby given 

that the SAB Environmental Justice 

Technical Guidance Review Panel will 

hold a public meeting to discuss the 

agency’s draft technical document that 

provides information on how to 

consider environmental justice in 

regulatory analysis. This SAB panel will 

provide advice to the Administrator 

through the chartered SAB. 

Background: The EPA’s National 

Center for Environmental Economics 

along with the Office of Environmental 

Justice has requested that the SAB peer 

review their Draft Technical Guidance 

for Assessing Environmental Justice in 

Regulatory Analysis (May 1, 2013). The 

EPA released the draft technical 

guidance for public comment on May 9, 

2013 (see https:// 

www.federalregister.gov/articles/2013/ 

05/09/2013–11165/technical-guidancefor-assessing-environmental-justice-inregulatory-analysis). The deadline for 

submitting public comments to the 

agency was September 6, 2013. 

Background on this SAB review, 

including the process for forming this 

review panel was provided in a Federal 


emcdonald on DSK67QTVN1PROD with NOTICES
77674 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 247 / Tuesday, December 24, 2013 / Notices 

Register Notice published on June 4, 

2013 (Volume 78 FR 107; 33416–33417). 

The SAB Panel met on June 19–20, 2013 

to learn about the development of the 

technical guidance, how the EPA 

currently assesses environmental justice 

(EJ) concerns and to provide their initial 

impressions. The purpose of this 

upcoming meeting is for the SAB Panel 

to learn about the comments submitted 

by the public to the agency and to 

develop draft responses to the charge 

questions. Additional information about 

this advisory activity can be found at 

the following URL: http://

meeting agenda and other meeting 

materials will be posted at the above 

noted URL prior to the meeting. 

Technical Contacts: Any technical 

questions concerning EPA’s draft 

technical document should be directed 

to Dr. Kelly Maguire at (202) 566–2273 

or by email at maguire.kelly@epa.gov.

Prior to the meeting, the review 

documents, agenda and other materials 

will be accessible through the calendar 

link on the blue navigation bar at 

http://www.epa.gov/sab/. 

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 the EPA. 

Interested members of the public may 

submit relevant written or oral 

information on the topic of this advisory 

activity, and/or the group conducting 

the activity, for the SAB to consider 

during the advisory process. Input from 

the public to the SAB will have the most 

impact if it provides specific scientific 

or technical information or analysis for 

SAB committees 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 DFO directly. Oral 

Statements: In general, individuals or 

groups requesting an oral presentation 

at a public meeting will be limited to 

five minutes. Interested parties should 

contact Dr. Sue Shallal, DFO, in writing 

(preferably via email) at the contact 

information noted above by January 23, 

2014, to be placed on the list of public 

speakers for the meeting. Written 

Statements: Written statements should 

be supplied to the DFO via email at the 

contact information noted above by 

January 23, 2014 for the meeting so that 

the information may be made available 

to the Committee members 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/Windows 98/2000/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 

copyright holder. 

Accessibility: For information on 

access or services for individuals with 

disabilities, please contact Dr. Sue 

Shallal at (202) 564–2057 or 

shallal.suhair@epa.gov. To request 

accommodation of a disability, please 

contact Dr. Shallal preferably at least ten 

days prior to the meeting to give EPA as 

much time as possible to process your 

request.

and Demonstration Authorization Act 

(ERDDAA), codified at 42 U.S.C. 4365, 

to provide independent scientific and 

technical advice to the Administrator on 

the technical basis for Agency positions

below. 

As noted in the Federal Register 

Notice announcing a meeting of the 

chartered SAB on December 4–5, 2013 

(78 FR 68057–68058), the EPA has 

recently underscored the need to 

routinely inform the SAB about 

proposed and planned agency actions 

that have a scientific or technical basis. 

Accordingly, the agency provided notice 

to the SAB that the Office of 

Management and Budget published the 

‘‘Unified (Regulatory) Agenda’’ on the 

Web on July 3, 2013 (http://

www.reginfo.gov/public). On December 

4–5, 2013, the Chartered SAB discussed 

whether it should provide advice and 

comment on the adequacy of the 

scientific and technical basis for EPA 

actions included in the Unified 

(Regulatory) Agenda. The chartered SAB 

discussed information relating to these 

planned actions at the December 4–5, 

2013 meeting. On January 21, 2014, the 

chartered SAB will conclude its 

discussion of one action, the Standards 

of Performance for Greenhouse Gas 

Emissions from New Stationary Sources: 

Electric Utility Generation Units (2060– 

AQ91).
