nonindigenous species introductions to 

marine, estuarine, and freshwater 

ecosystems of the United States. Ballast 

water discharges are regulated by EPA 

under authority of the Clean Water Act 

(CWA) and the U.S. Coast Guard under 

authority of the Nonindigenous Aquatic 

Nuisance Prevention and Control Act, as 

amended (NANPCA). Under the 

authority of the CWA, EPA’s Vessel 

General Permit requires the flushing and 

exchange of ballast water by vessels in 

Pacific-near-shore voyages and the 

saltwater flushing of ballast water tanks 

that are empty or contain only unpumpable residual ballast water. While 

useful in reducing the presence of 

potentially invasive organisms in ballast 

water, ballast water exchange and 

saltwater flushing can have variable 

effectiveness and may not always be 

feasible due to vessel safety concerns. 

EPA’s Office of Water has requested 

SAB review of technical documents and 

available data on the efficacy of ballast 

water treatment systems and advice on 

improving the performance of such 

systems. The SAB’s Ecological Processes 

and Effects Committee (EPEC) 

Augmented for the Ballast Water 

Advisory has conducted this review and 

developed the draft advisory entitled 

Efficacy of ballast water treatment 

systems; A Report by the EPA Science 

Advisory Board (May 2011 Draft). 

Background information about the 

SAB advisory activity, including its 

meetings and teleconferences, can be 

found on the SAB Web site at http:// 

yosemite.epa.gov/sab/sabproduct.nsf/

OpenDocument. 

Availability of Meeting Materials: The 

agenda and other materials in support of 

the teleconference will be placed on the 

SAB Web site at http://www.epa.gov/sab 

in advance of the teleconference. 

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 EPA. Members of the public 

can submit comments for a federal 

advisory committee to consider as it 

develops advice for EPA. Input from the 

public to the SAB will have the most 

impact if it provides specific scientific 

or technical information or analysis for 

SAB panels 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 Designated Federal Officer 

directly. Oral Statements: In general, 

individuals or groups requesting an oral 

presentation at a teleconference will be 

limited to three minutes. Those 

interested in being placed on the public 

speakers list for the June 9, 2011 

teleconference should contact Ms. 

Sanzone at the contact information 

provided above no later than June 9, 

2011. Written Statements: Written 

statements should be supplied to the 

DFO via e-mail at the contact 

information noted above by June 9, 2011 

for the teleconference so that the 

information may be made available to 

the Panel 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 Ms. Sanzone 

(202) 564–2067 or sanzone.stephanie@

epa.gov. To request accommodation of a 

disability, please contact Ms. Sanzone 

preferably at least ten days prior to the 

teleconference to give EPA as much 

time as possible to process your request.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. General Information 

The U.S. Environmental Protection 

Agency is creating a Privacy Act system 

of records in support of its Light-Duty 

In-Use Vehicle Testing Program. The 

Clean Air Act requires manufacturers of 

motor vehicles and engines to design 

and build vehicles that will comply 

with emissions standards throughout 

the vehicle’s life span. EPA is 

responsible for monitoring compliance 

and investigating possible 

noncompliance with this requirement. 

In order to fulfill this function, it is 

necessary for EPA to test actual ‘‘in-use’’ 

vehicles. This program uses motor 

vehicle registration information 

obtained from the Michigan Secretary of 

State to recruit volunteers who will 

allow their vehicles to be tested. The 

information that will be maintained 

regarding program participants 

includes: (1) Car owner’s name, address, 

phone number, and vehicle 

identification numbers (VIN); (2) 

owners’ response cards indicating 

willingness to participate or not; (3) 

owners’ description of their vehicles on 

the recruitment response card and 

telephone questionnaire; (4) notary 

statement for questionnaire; (5) owners’ 

optionally provided car maintenance 

records; (6) results of tests of vehicles 

recruited; and (7) vehicle release 

agreement, vehicle test agreement, 

loaner car agreement, cash incentives 

agreement (includes social security 

number for mandatory tax reporting 

purposes if cash incentive is greater 

than $600) and (8) cash receipt. 

The above information is contained in 

computer and paper files at EPA’s 

National Vehicle and Fuel Emissions 

Laboratory in Ann Arbor, Michigan. All 

information provided by the Secretary 

of State (vehicle owners’ names, 

addresses, vehicle identification 

numbers, vehicle make, model year, 

body style and weight/fee category) is 

governed by an approved security, 

privacy and personnel policy plan 

mandated by the State. The Plan 

includes provisions governing the entire 

information system with respect to 

computer security, prohibition and 

detection of any unauthorized access or 

use of personal information, employee 

agreements, annual review, notification 

of violations, system supervision 

requirements, and if necessary, 

disciplinary actions. Only contractor 

employees (governed by Privacy Act 

compliance terms in their contract) and 

EPA employees administering the 

program have access to the information 

provided by the Secretary of State, the 

questionnaire, maintenance records, and 

test results. Files containing personal 

information are kept in locked filing 

cabinets. Physical access to the filing 

cabinets is limited to authorized 

personnel employees with building key 

cards. All files are assigned a control 

number by which they are accessed. If 

the vehicle owner gives consent, the 

questionnaire (including the owner’s 

name and address), maintenance 

records, and test results are shared with 

the vehicle manufacturer. This 

information is used by the manufacturer 

to participate in problem solving with 

the Agency when emissions compliance 

issues are raised by the test results and 

to contact the current owner for 

voluntary participation in the retest 

conducted by the manufacturer. 

Manufacturers already maintain VIN 

and original owner information in 

connection with warranty obligations 

and maintenance information if the 

service was performed in manufactureraffiliated repair shops. However, 

additional maintenance information 

voluntarily submitted by the owner to 

the Agency will be used to help identify 

the cause of emissions compliance 

issues.
