Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 138 / Friday, July 18, 2014 / Notices 42005 

Estimated number of respondents: 96 

(total). 

Frequency of response: Initially and 

semiannually. 

Total estimated burden: 14,535 hours 

(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.3(b). 

Total estimated cost: $2,195,995 (per 

year), includes $774,234 annualized 

capital or operation & maintenance 

costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is an 

adjustment decrease in the respondent 

and Agency burden. This is not due to 

any program changes. The decrease 

occurred because we have modified the 

number of existing cement plants from 

118 to 96 to reflect the latest industry 

data collected by the Agency’s 

Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program. 

This revision provides a more accurate 

estimate for the portland cement sector, 

and results in an overall decrease in 

burden estimate.

Abstract: The affected entities are 

subject to the General Provisions of the 

NESHAP (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart A), 

and any changes, or additions to the 

Provisions (40 CFR part 63, Subpart LL). 

Owners or operators of the affected 

facilities must submit a one-time only 

report of any physical or operational 

changes, initial performance tests, and 

periodic reports and results. Owners or 

operators are also required to maintain 

records of the occurrence and duration 

of any startup, shutdown, or 

malfunction in the operation of an 

affected facility, or any period during 

which the monitoring system is 

inoperative. Reports are required 

semiannually at a minimum. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: 

Owners or operators of primary 

aluminum reduction plants. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Mandatory (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart 

LL). 

Estimated number of respondents: 16 

(total). 

Frequency of response: Initially, 

semiannually and annually. 

Total estimated burden: 80,023 hours 

(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.3(b). 

Total estimated cost: $7,918,987 (per 

year), which includes $91,348 in either 

annualized capital/startup or operation 

& maintenance costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is no 

significant change in burden in this ICR 

compared to the previous ICR. This is 

due to two considerations: (1) the 

regulations have not changed over the 

past three years, and are not anticipated 

to change over the next three years; and 

(2) the growth rate for the industry is 

very low, negative or non-existent, so 

there is no significant change in the 

overall burden. The apparent decrease 

of 375 hours in respondent burden is 

due to a mathematical correction. The 

previous ICR incorrectly summed the 

number of recordkeeping hours. In 

addition, there is a small increase in 

respondent cost due to an update in 

labor rates.

Request for Nominations of Experts To 

Augment the Science Advisory Board 

Ecological Process and Effects 

Committee for the Consultation and 

Review of Lake Erie Phosphorous 

Objectives 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) Science Advisory Board 

(SAB) Staff Office requests public 

nominations of scientific experts to 

augment the SAB Ecological Process 

and Effects Committee (EPEC) to form a 

panel to provide early advice on and 

subsequent review of preliminary binational phosphorous objectives, 

loading targets and allocations for the 

nearshore and offshore waters to 

achieve the Lake Ecosystem Objectives 

for Lake Erie, pursuant to the Nutrients 

Annex (Annex 4) of the 2012 Great 

Lakes Water Quality Agreement 

(GLWQA). 

DATES: Nominations should be 

submitted by August 8, 2014 per the 

instructions below. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Any 

member of the public wishing further 

information regarding this Notice and 

Request for Nominations may contact 

the Designated Federal Officer. 

Nominators unable to submit 

nominations electronically as described 

below may contact the Designated 

Federal Officers for assistance. General 

information concerning the EPA SAB 

can be found at the EPA SAB Web site 

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

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background: The SAB (42 U.S.C. 4365) 

is a chartered Federal Advisory 

Committee that provides independent 

scientific and technical peer review, 

advice, consultation, and 

recommendations to the EPA 

Administrator on the technical basis for 

EPA actions. As a Federal Advisory 

Committee, the SAB conducts business 

in accordance with the Federal 

Advisory Committee Act (FACA) (5 

U.S.C. App. 2) and related regulations. 

The SAB Ecological Process and Effects 

Committee (EPEC) is a subcommittee of 

the SAB that provides advice through 

the chartered SAB on technical issues 

related to EPA environmental programs 

and the supporting science and research 

to protect, sustain and restore the health 

of ecosystems. The SAB and the EPEC, 

augmented with additional experts, will 

comply with the provisions of FACA 

and all appropriate SAB Staff Office 

procedural policies. 

EPA Region 5 is co-leading a 

binational workgroup to develop and 

implement the Nutrients Annex 

(‘‘Annex 4’’) of the 2012 Great Lakes 

Water Quality Agreement (GLWQA) in 

accordance with Article 3(b)(i) of the 

GLWQA. Under Annex 4, the U.S. and 

Canada are charged with establishing 

binational Substance Objectives for 

phosphorus concentrations, loading 

targets and allocations for the nearshore 

and offshore waters of Lake Erie by 

February 2016. The general approach is 

to use an ensemble of Lake Erie 

ecosystem models to compute 

appropriate load-response relationships 

for eutrophication response indicators 

of concern. EPA Region 5 requested an 

SAB consultation (i.e., early advice) on 

the appropriateness of modeling 

approaches to meet the GLWQA Lake 

Ecosystem Objectives. EPA is also 

requesting a subsequent review of the 

modeled phosphorus targets and loads 

to obtain advice on (1) whether these 

targets and loads are sufficient to meet 

the Lake Ecosystem Objectives as 

defined in the GLWQA and (2) whether 

the modeled results reflect the best 

available information on the 

phosphorous sources and trophic status 

of Lake Erie. 

Technical Contact for EPA’s draft 

assessments: For information 

concerning the GLWQA Annex 4 please 

contact Ms. Santina Wortman, Water 

Division, US EPA Region 5, 77 West 

Jackson Boulevard (WW–16J), Chicago, 

Illinois 60604, phone (312) 353–8319. 

Request for Nominations: The SAB 

Staff Office is seeking nominations of 

nationally and internationally 

recognized scientists with demonstrated 

expertise and research to augment the 

EPEC and form an augmented standing 

committee for an early consultation and 

subsequent review of the binational 

phosphorous objectives, loading targets 

and allocations for the nearshore and 

offshore waters to achieve the Lake 

Ecosystem Objectives for Lake Erie. For 

this effort the SAB Staff Office seeks 

experts in one or more of the following 

areas, algal and cyanobacteria ecology, 

aquatic ecology, hydrology, limnology, 

ecosystem modeling, and nutrient fate 

and transport. Questions regarding this 

advisory activity should be directed to 

Mr. Thomas Carpenter, Designated 

Federal Officer (DFO), SAB Staff Office, 

by telephone/voice mail at (202) 564– 

4885, by fax at (202) 565–2098, or via 

email at carpenter.thomas@epa.gov. 

Process and Deadline for Submitting 

Nominations: Any interested person or 

organization may nominate qualified 

individuals in the areas of expertise 

described above for possible service on 

the augmented EPEC panel identified in 

this notice. Nominations should be 

submitted in electronic format 

(preferred over hard copy) following the 

instructions for ‘‘Nominating Experts to 

Advisory Panels and Ad Hoc 

Committees Being Formed,’’ provided 

on the SAB Web site (see the 

‘‘Nomination of Experts’’ link on the 

blue navigational bar at http://

www.epa.gov/sab). To receive full 

consideration, nominations should 

include all of the information requested
