ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION 

AGENCY 

[FRL–9981–30–OA] 

Request for Nominations of Experts for 

the Clean Air Scientific Advisory 

Committee (CASAC) Ozone Review 

Panel 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) Science Advisory Board 

(SAB) Staff Office requests public 

nominations for scientific experts to 

form a CASAC ad hoc panel to provide 

advice through the chartered CASAC on 

the scientific and technical aspects of 

air quality criteria and the National 

Ambient Air Quality Standards 

(NAAQS) for ozone. 

DATES: Nominations should be 

submitted by (August 17, 2018) per 

instructions below. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Any 

member of the public wishing further 

information regarding this Notice and 

Request for Nominations may contact 

Mr. Aaron Yeow, Designated Federal 

Officer (DFO), SAB Staff Office, by 

telephone/voice mail at (202) 564–2050 

or via email at yeow.aaron@epa.gov. 

General information concerning the 

CASAC can be found on the following 

website: http://www.epa.gov/casac. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background: The Clean Air Scientific 

Advisory Committee (CASAC) was 

established under section 109(d)(2) of 

the Clean Air Act (CAA or Act) (42 

U.S.C. 7409) as an independent 

scientific advisory committee. The 

CASAC provides advice, information 

and recommendations on the scientific 

and technical aspects of air quality 

criteria and NAAQS under sections 108 

and 109 of the Act. The CASAC shall 

also: Advise the EPA Administrator of 

areas in which additional knowledge is 

required to appraise the adequacy and 

basis of existing, new, or revised 

NAAQS; describe the research efforts 

necessary to provide the required 

information; advise the EPA 

Administrator on the relative 

contribution to air pollution 

concentrations of natural as well as 

anthropogenic activity; and advise the 

EPA Administrator of any adverse 

public health, welfare, social, economic, 

or energy effects which may result from 

various strategies for attainment and 

maintenance of such NAAQS. 

As amended, 5 U.S.C., App. Section 

109(d)(1) of the Clean Air Act (CAA) 

requires that EPA carry out a periodic 

review and revision, as appropriate, of 

the air quality criteria and the NAAQS 

for the six ‘‘criteria’’ air pollutants, 

including ozone. With the publication 

of the National Ambient Standards for 

Ozone (80 FR 65292) on October 26, 

2015, the Agency completed its most 

recent review of the Ozone NAAQS. The 

CASAC’s Ozone Review Panel for that 

review cycle was formed in January 

2009 and completed its work in July 

2014. 

This Federal Register notice 

solicitation is seeking nominations for 

subject matter experts to serve on the 

CASAC Ozone Review Panel for the 

next review of the Ozone NAAQS that 

begins in fiscal year (FY) 2018. The 

Panel will be charged with reviewing 

the science and policy assessments, and 

related documents, that form the basis 

for the EPA’s review of the Ozone 

NAAQS, and will provide advice 

through the Chartered CASAC. 

The CASAC is a Federal advisory 

committee chartered under the Federal 

Advisory Committee Act (FACA). As a 

Federal Advisory Committee, the 

CASAC conducts business in 

accordance with the Federal Advisory 

Committee Act (FACA) (5 U.S.C. App. 


amozie on DSK3GDR082PROD with NOTICES1
35636 Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 145 / Friday, July 27, 2018 / Notices 

2) and related regulations. The CASAC 

and the CASAC Ozone Review Panel 

will comply with the provisions of 

FACA and all appropriate SAB Staff 

Office procedural policies. 

Request for Nominations: The SAB 

Staff Office is seeking nominations of 

nationally and internationally 

recognized scientists with demonstrated 

expertise and research in the field of air 

pollution related to ozone. Experts are 

sought in: Air quality, atmospheric 

science and chemistry, causal inference, 

dosimetry, toxicology, controlled 

clinical exposure, epidemiology, 

biostatistics, human exposure modeling, 

risk assessment/modeling, uncertainty 

analysis, ecology and effects on welfare 

and the environment, and 

environmental economics. 

Process and Deadline for Submitting 

Nominations: Any interested person or 

organization may nominate qualified 

individuals in the areas of expertise 

described above. Individuals may selfnominate. Nominations should be 

submitted in electronic format 

(preferred) using the online nomination 

form under ‘‘Public Input on 

Membership’’ on the CASAC web page 

at http://www.epa.gov/casac. To be 

considered, all nominations should 

include the information requested 

below. EPA values and welcomes 

diversity. All qualified candidates are 

encouraged to apply regardless of sex, 

race, disability or ethnicity. 

Nominations should be submitted by 

(August 17, 2018). 

The following information should be 

provided on the nomination form: 

Contact information for the person 

making the nomination; contact 

information for the nominee; the 

disciplinary and specific areas of 

expertise of the nominee; the nominee’s 

curriculum vitae; and a biographical 

sketch of the nominee indicating current 

position, educational background; 

research activities; sources of research 

funding for the last two years; and 

recent service on other national 

advisory committees or national 

professional organizations. Persons 

having questions about the nomination 

process or the public comment process 

described below, or who are unable to 

submit nominations through the CASAC 

website, should contact the DFO, as 

identified above. The DFO will 

acknowledge receipt of nominations and 

will invite the nominee to provide any 

additional information that the nominee 

feels would be useful in considering the 

nomination. The names and biosketches 

of qualified nominees identified by 

respondents to this Federal Register 

notice, and additional experts identified 

by the SAB Staff Office, will be posted 

in a List of Candidates on the CASAC 

website at http://www.epa.gov/casac. 

Public comments on each List of 

Candidates will be accepted for 21 days 

from the date the list is posted. The 

public will be requested to provide 

relevant information or other 

documentation on nominees that the 

SAB Staff Office should consider in 

evaluating candidates. 

For the EPA SAB Staff Office, a 

balanced review panel includes 

candidates who possess the necessary 

domains of knowledge, the relevant 

scientific perspectives (which, among 

other factors, can be influenced by work 

history and affiliation), and the 

collective breadth of experience to 

adequately address the charge. In 

forming this expert panel, the SAB Staff 

Office will consider public comments 

on the List of Candidates, information 

provided by the candidates themselves, 

and background information 

independently gathered by the SAB 

Staff Office. Selection criteria to be used 

for panel membership include: (a) 

Scientific and/or technical expertise, 

knowledge, and experience (primary 

factors); (b) availability and willingness 

to serve; (c) absence of financial 

conflicts of interest; (d) absence of an 

appearance of a lack of impartiality; (e) 

skills working in committees, 

subcommittees and advisory panels; 

and, (f) for the panel as a whole, 

diversity of expertise and viewpoints. 

The SAB Staff Office’s evaluation of 

an absence of financial conflicts of 

interest will include a review of the 

‘‘Confidential Financial Disclosure 

Form for Special Government 

Employees Serving on Federal Advisory 

Committees at the U.S. Environmental 

Protection Agency’’ (EPA Form 3110– 

48). This confidential form allows 

government officials to determine 

whether there is a statutory conflict 

between a person’s public 

responsibilities (which includes 

membership on an EPA federal advisory 

committee) and private interests and 

activities, or the appearance of a lack of 

impartiality, as defined by federal 

regulation. The form may be viewed and 

downloaded from the following URL

The approved policy under which the 

EPA SAB Office selects subcommittees 

and review panels is described in the
