ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION 

AGENCY 

[EPA–HQ–ORD–2007–0362; FRL–8313–8] 

Notice of Availability of the Draft Final 

Report: ‘‘Comparison of the Alternative 

Asbestos Control Method and the 

NESHAP Method for Demolition of 

Asbestos-Containing Buildings’’

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice of document availability 

and invitation for public comment. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Environmental 

Protection Agency is announcing a 

public comment period and 

independent, external peer review for 

the draft Final Report for the Alternative 

Asbestos Control Method (AACM) 

Demonstration Project. The external 

peer review is expected to include a 

face-to-face meeting in Cincinnati, OH. 

The time and location for the external 

peer review meeting have not yet been 

determined and will be specified in a 

separate Federal Register notice. EPA 

expects to invite the public to attend the 

meeting and to provide an opportunity 

to the public to make comments at the 

meeting. The public comment period 

and the external peer review provide 

opportunities for all interested parties to 

comment on the report. In addition to 

consideration by EPA, all public 

comments submitted in accordance with 

this notice will also be forwarded to 

EPA’s contractor for consideration by 

the external peer review panel prior to 

the meeting. 

EPA is releasing this draft document 

solely for the purpose of predissemination peer review under 

applicable information quality 

guidelines. This document has not been 

formally disseminated by EPA. This 

draft Final Report does not represent 

and should not be construed to 

represent any EPA policy, viewpoint, or 

determination. 

The U.S. EPA conducted a controlled 

demonstration to evaluate the AACM 

alongside the current National 

Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air 

Pollutants (NESHAP) method in a 

remote, secure location at Fort Chaffee, 

Arkansas. To facilitate side-by-side 

comparison, the demonstration used 

two similar structures with asbestoscontaining materials. Additional 

information about this research project, 

including a description of the AACM 

and the project schedule, is available at 

http://epa.gov/region6/6xa/ 

asbestos.htm. 

DATES: The public comment period for 

this draft Final Report begins with the 

publication of this notice. Comments 

may be submitted by June 11, 2007. 

ADDRESSES: Members of the public may 

obtain the draft Final Report from 

www.regulations.gov or from Stephen 

Watkins via the contact information 

below.

received will be included in the public 

docket without change and may be 

made available online at 

www.regulations.gov, including any 

personal information provided, unless 

the comment includes information 

claimed to be Confidential Business 

Information (CBI) or other information 

whose disclosure is restricted by statute. 

Do not submit information that you 

consider to be CBI or otherwise 

protected through www.regulations.gov

site is an ‘‘anonymous access’’ system, 

which means EPA will not know your

you provide it in the body of your 

comment. If you send an e-mail 

comment directly to EPA, without going 

through www.regulations.gov, your email address will be automatically 

captured and included as part of the 

comment that is placed in the public 

docket and made available on the 

Internet. If you submit an electronic 

comment, EPA recommends that you 

include your name and other contact 

information in the body of your 

comment and with any disk or CD–ROM 

you submit. If EPA cannot read your 

comment due to technical difficulties 

and cannot contact you for clarification, 

EPA may not be able to consider your 

comment. Electronic files should avoid 

the use of special characters, any form 

of encryption, and be free of any defects 

or viruses. 

Docket: All documents in the docket 

are listed in the www.regulations.gov 

index. Although listed in the index, 

some information is not publicly 

available, e.g., CBI or other information 

whose disclosure is restricted by statute. 

Certain other material, such as 

copyrighted material, will be publicly 

available only in hard copy. Publicly 

available docket materials are available 

either electronically in 

www.regulations.gov or in hard copy at 

the ORD Docket, EPA/DC, EPA West, 

Room 3334, 1301 Constitution Ave.,
