Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 151 / Monday, August 6, 2012 / Notices 46755 

Reduction Act of 2010 (Pub. L. 111– 

364), codified at 42 U.S.C. 16131 et seq. 

DERA provides the Environmental 

Protection Agency (EPA) with the 

authority to award grants, rebates or 

low-cost revolving loans on a 

competitive basis to eligible entities to 

fund the costs of a retrofit technology 

that significantly reduces diesel 

emissions from mobile sources through 

implementation of a certified engine 

configuration, verified technology, or 

emerging technology. Eligible mobile 

sources include buses (including school 

buses), medium heavy-duty or heavy 

heavy-duty diesel trucks, marine 

engines, locomotives, or nonroad 

engines or diesel vehicles or equipment 

used in construction, handling of cargo 

(including at port or airport), 

agriculture, mining, or energy 

production. In addition, eligible entities 

may also use funds awarded for 

programs or projects to reduce longduration idling using verified 

technology involving a vehicle or 

equipment described above. The 

objective of the assistance under this 

program is to achieve significant 

reductions in diesel emissions in terms 

of tons of pollution produced and 

reductions in diesel emissions exposure, 

particularly from fleets operating in 

areas designated by the Administrator as 

poor air quality areas. 

EPA uses approved procedures and 

forms to collect necessary information 

to operate a grant program, and has been 

providing grants under DERA since 

Fiscal Year 2008. EPA is requesting 

approval through this ICR for forms 

needed to collect necessary information 

to operate a rebate program as 

authorized by Congress under the DERA 

program. 

EPA will collect information from 

applicants who wish to apply for a 

rebate under the DERA rebate program. 

Information collected from applicants 

will ensure that they are eligible to 

receive funds under DERA, that funds 

are provided for eligible activities, and 

to calculate estimated and actual 

emissions benefits that result from 

activities funded with rebates as 

required in DERA’s authorizing 

legislation. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 4 hours per 

response. Burden means the total time, 

effort, or financial resources expended 

by persons to generate, maintain, retain, 

or disclose or provide information to or 

for a Federal agency. This includes the 

time needed to review instructions; 

develop, acquire, install, and utilize 

technology and systems for the purposes 

of collecting, validating, and verifying 

information, processing and 

maintaining information, and disclosing 

and providing information; adjust the 

existing ways to comply with any 

previously applicable instructions and 

requirements which have subsequently 

changed; train personnel to be able to 

respond to a collection of information; 

search data sources; complete and 

review the collection of information; 

and transmit or otherwise disclose the 

information. 

Respondents/Affected Entities: 

Entities potentially affected by this 

action are those interested in applying 

for a rebate under EPA’s Diesel 

Emission Reduction Act (DERA) Rebate 

Program and include but are not limited 

to the following NAICS (North 

American Industry Classification 

System) codes: 23 Construction; 482 

Rail Transportation; 483 Water 

Transportation; 484 Truck

Welfare Risk and Exposure Assessment 

for Ozone—First External Review Draft 

(July 20, and Policy Assessment for the 

Review of the Ozone National Ambient 

Air Quality Standards—First External 

Review Draft (August 2012). These EPA 

draft documents are prepared as part of 

the agency’s review of the National 

Ambient Air Quality Standards 

(NAAQS) for ozone. 

Section 109(d)(1) of the CAA requires 

that the Agency periodically review and 

revise, as appropriate, the air quality 

criteria and the NAAQS for the six 

‘‘criteria’’ air pollutants, including 

ozone. EPA is currently reviewing the 

primary (health-based) and secondary 

(welfare-based) NAAQS for ozone. The 

CASAC previously reviewed EPA’s first 

external review draft of the Integrated 

Science Assessment for Ozone and 

Related Photochemical Oxidants (March 

2011) as reported in a letter to the EPA 

Administrator, dated August 10, 2011 

(EPA–CASAC–11–009). The CASAC 

also reviewed the second external 

review draft of the Integrated Science 

Assessment for Ozone and Related 

Photochemical Oxidants (September 

2011) as reported in a letter to the EPA 

Administrator, dated March 13, 2012 

(EPA–CASAC–12–004). The CASAC 

Ozone Review Panel will comply with 

the provisions of FACA and all 

appropriate SAB Staff Office procedural 

policies. 

Technical Contacts: Any technical 

questions concerning the Integrated 

Science Assessment for Ozone and 

Related Photochemical Oxidants (Third 

External Review Draft) (June 2012) 

should be directed to Dr. James Brown 

(brown.james@epa.gov). Any technical 

questions concerning the Health Risk 

and Exposure Assessment for Ozone— 

First External Review Draft (July 2012) 

or the Welfare Risk and Exposure 

Assessment for Ozone—First External 

Review Draft (July 2012) should be 

directed to Dr. Bryan Hubbell (hubbell.

bryan@epa.gov). Any technical 

questions concerning the Policy 

Assessment for the Review of the Ozone 

National Ambient Air Quality 

Standards—First External Review Draft 

(August 2012) should be directed to Ms. 

Susan Lyon Stone (stone.susan@epa.

gov). 

Availability of Meeting Materials: 

Prior to the meeting, the review 

documents, agenda and other materials 

will be accessible through the calendar 

link on the blue navigation bar at http:// 

www.epa.gov/casac/. 

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 relevant 

comments for a federal advisory 

committee to consider pertaining to 

EPA’s charge to the committee or review 

materials. Input from the public to the 

CASAC will have the most impact if it 

provides specific scientific, technical 

information or analysis or if it relates to 

the clarity or accuracy of the technical 

information for the CASAC’s 

consideration. 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 public meeting will be 

limited to five minutes. Interested 

parties should contact Dr. Stallworth, 

DFO, in writing (preferably via email) at 

the contact information noted above by 

August 31, 2012, to be placed on the list 

of public speakers for the meeting. 

Written Statements: Written 

statements should be submitted to the 

DFO via email at the contact 

information noted above by August 31, 

2012 for the meeting so that the 

information may be made available to 

the CASAC Panel 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 public 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 CASAC 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 Dr. Holly 

Stallworth at (202) 564–2073 or 

stallworth.holly@epa.gov. To request 

accommodation of a disability, please 

contact Dr. Stallworth preferably at least 

ten days prior to the meeting to give 

EPA as much time as possible to process 

your request.
