AGENCY: Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of Request for

Nominations.

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA) is inviting nominations to

fill vacancies on its National Advisory

Council for Environmental Policy and

Technology (NACEPT). The Agency is

seeking qualified senior level decision

makers from diverse sectors throughout

the U.S. to be considered for

appointments. Nominations will be

accepted until close of business October

ADDRESSES: Submit nominations to: Mr.

Protection Agency, 1601–F, 401 M

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: NACEPT

is a federal advisory committee under

the Federal Advisory Committee Act, PL

92463. NACEPT provides advice and

recommendations to the Administrator

and other EPA officials on a broad range

of domestic and international

environmental policy issues.

NACEPT consists of a representative

cross-section of EPA’s partners and

principle constituents who provide

advice and recommendations on policy

issues and serve as a sounding board for

new strategies that the Agency is

developing.

Maintaining a balance and diversity of

experience, knowledge, and judgment is

an important consideration in the

selection of members.

The Administrator has asked NACEPT

to concentrate on several policy and

regulatory components associated with

Reinvention, Information, and Capital

Markets.

The following standing NACEPT

committees were formed to address

different aspects of these efforts.

• The Reinvention Criteria Committee

(RCC) will provide advice and

recommendations on criteria to measure

the progress and success of improving

public confidence, fostering flexibility

and environmental innovation, and

increasing accountability for

environmental results. This committee

will also provide advice on: how EPA

can promote an internal culture change

that goes beyond specific reinvention

programs and incorporates reinvention

philosophies into general EPA practices,

and identify a mechanism that EPA can

use to ensure management

accountability for reinvention programs.

• The Environmental Information and

Public Access Committee will focus on

providing stakeholder input into key

information management infrastructure

issues, including: access to, and

validation of environmental statistics;

the long-term role of the Center for

Environmental Information & Statistics

and how it fits within the Agency’s

current information management model;

updating of the Agency’s information

management strategic plan;

implementation of legislation in EPA

such as the Government Performance &

Results (GPRA) and the Paperwork

Reduction Act; the expanded role of the

Chief Information Officer (CIO); and

other key information management

strategies.

• The Environmental Capital Markets

Committee will provide stakeholder

inputs on the potential utility of using

Environmental Management Systems as

an investment service. The ultimate goal

of the committee is to identify concrete

actions EPA can take, on its own or in

cooperation with other Federal and

State agencies could take to help the

financial services industry incorporate

this environmental information into its

decision-making processes.

EPA is seeking nominees for

representatives from all sectors,

especially, state, local and tribal

agencies, industry, academia,

environmental, organizations, and

NGOs.

Nominations for membership must

include a resume and short biography

describing the educational and

professional qualifications of the

nominee and the nominee’s current

business address and daytime telephone

number.

NACEPT also has four (4) other

committees, but we are not soliciting

membership to those committees at this

time. The four committees include: The

Toxics Data Reporting Committee

(TDR), Total Maximum Daily Load

Committee (TMDL), Waste Isolation

Pilot Plant Committee (WIPP), and the

Effluent Guidelines Committees (EGC).
