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 

March 13, 2014, 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 March 13, 2014 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: The public can view the 

March 25–27, 2014 meeting via a noninteractive webcast that will be 

broadcast on the internet. The 

connection information to view the 

meeting via webcast will be provided on 

the SAB Web site at http:// 

www.epa.gov/casac in advance of the 

meeting. 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. General Information 

A. What should I consider as I prepare 

my comments for the EPA? 

1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this 

information to the EPA through 

www.regulations.gov or email. Clearly 

mark the part or all of the information 

that you claim to be CBI. For CBI 

information in a disk or CD–ROM that 

you mail to the EPA, mark the outside 

of the disk or CD–ROM as CBI and then 

identify electronically within the disk or 

CD–ROM the specific information that 

is claimed as CBI. In addition to one 

complete version of the comment that 

includes information claimed as CBI, a 

copy of the comment that does not 

contain the information claimed as CBI 

must be submitted for inclusion in the 

public docket. Information so marked 

will not be disclosed except in 

accordance with procedures set forth in 

40 CFR part 2. 

2. Tips for Preparing Your Comments. 

When submitting comments, remember 

to: 

• Identify the rulemaking by docket 

number and other identifying 

information (subject heading, Federal 

Register date and page number). 

• Follow directions—The agency may 

ask you to respond to specific questions 

or organize comments by referencing a 

Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) part 

or section number. 

• Explain why you agree or disagree; 

suggest alternatives and substitute 

language for your requested changes. 

• Describe any assumptions and 

provide any technical information and/ 

or data that you used. 

• If you estimate potential costs or 

burdens, explain how you arrived at 

your estimate in sufficient detail to 

allow for it to be reproduced. 

• Provide specific examples to 

illustrate your concerns, and suggest 

alternatives. 

• Explain your views as clearly as 

possible, avoiding the use of profanity 

or personal threats. 

• Make sure to submit your 

comments by the comment period 

deadline identified. 

II. Information Specific to These 

Documents 

Two sections of the Clean Air Act 

(Act) govern the establishment and 

revision of the NAAQS. Section 108 (42 

U.S.C. 7408) directs the Administrator 

to identify and list certain air pollutants 

and then to issue air quality criteria for 

those pollutants. The Administrator is 

to list those air pollutants that in her 

‘‘judgment, cause or contribute to air 

pollution which may reasonably be 

anticipated to endanger public health or 

welfare;’’ ‘‘the presence of which in the 

ambient air results from numerous or 

diverse mobile or stationary sources;’’ 

and ‘‘for which * * * [the 

Administrator] plans to issue air quality 

criteria * * *’’. Air quality criteria are 

intended to ‘‘accurately reflect the latest 

scientific knowledge useful in 

indicating the kind and extent of all 

identifiable effects on public health or 

welfare which may be expected from the 

presence of [a] pollutant in the ambient 

air * * *’’ 42 U.S.C. 7408(b). Under 

section 109 (42 U.S.C. 7409), the EPA 

establishes primary (health-based) and 

secondary (welfare-based) NAAQS for 

pollutants for which air quality criteria 

are issued. Section 109(d) requires 

periodic review and, if appropriate, 

revision of existing air quality criteria. 

The revised air quality criteria reflect 

advances in scientific knowledge on the 

effects of the pollutant on public health 

or welfare. The EPA is also required to 

periodically review and, if appropriate, 

revise the NAAQS, based on the revised 

air quality criteria. Section 109(d)(2) 

requires that an independent scientific 

review committee ‘‘shall complete a 

review of the criteria * * * and the 

national primary and secondary ambient 

air quality standards * * * and shall 

recommend to the Administrator any 

new * * * standards and revisions of 

existing criteria and standards as may be 

appropriate * * *.’’ Since the early 

1980’s, this independent review 

function has been performed by the 

Clean Air Scientific Advisory 

Committee (CASAC). 

Presently, the EPA is reviewing the 

NAAQS for O3. The EPA’s overall plan

for this review is presented in the 

Integrated Review Plan for the Ozone 

National Ambient Air Quality 

Standards.1 As part of the EPA’s review 

of the primary and secondary O3

NAAQS,2 the Agency has conducted 

quantitative assessments characterizing 

the: (1) Health risks associated with 

exposure to ambient O3; (2) welfare risks 

associated with exposure to ambient O3; 

and, (3) associated ambient air quality 

analyses. On or about January 31, 2014, 

the EPA is making available for public 

comment two draft assessment 

documents titled, Health Risk and 

Exposure Assessment for Ozone, Second 

External Review Draft and Welfare Risk 

and Exposure Assessment for Ozone, 

Second External Review Draft. These 

documents revise the first draft Health 

Risk and Exposure Assessment (EPA– 

452/P–12–001; July 2012) and first draft 

Welfare Risk and Exposure Assessment 

(EPA–452/P–12–004; July 2012), 

respectively.3 The draft assessment 

documents announced today convey the 

approaches taken to assess exposures to 

ambient O3 and to characterize 

associated health and welfare risks, as 

well as present the key results, 

observations, and related uncertainties 

associated with the quantitative 

analyses performed. These draft 

assessments may be accessed online 

through the EPA’s Technology Transfer 

Network (TTN) Web site at http://

www.epa.gov/ttn/naaqs/standards/

ozone/s_o3_index.html. 

In addition, on or about January 31, 

2014, the EPA will make available the 

draft document titled, Policy 

Assessment for the Review of the Ozone 

National Ambient Air Quality 

Standards, Second External Review 

Draft. This document will serve to 

‘‘bridge the gap’’ between the scientific 

information and the judgments required 

of the Administrator in determining 

whether to retain or revise the existing 

NAAQS for (O3), and, if revision is 

considered, what revisions may be 

appropriate. This document revises the 

first draft Policy Assessment (EPA–452/ 

P–12–004; July 2012).4 The Policy 

Assessment builds upon information 

presented in the Integrated Science 

Assessment of Ozone and Related 

Photochemical Oxidants (Final Report) 5

and the two draft assessment documents 

announced today and described above. 

The second draft Policy Assessment 

may be accessed online through the 

EPA’s TTN Web site at: http://

www.epa.gov/ttn/naaqs/standards/

ozone/s_o3_index.html. 

The EPA is soliciting advice and 

recommendations from the CASAC by 

means of a review of these draft 

documents at an upcoming public 

meeting of the CASAC. Information 

about these public meetings, including 

the dates and locations, will be 

published as a separate notice in the 

Federal Register. Following the CASAC 

meeting, the EPA will consider 

comments received from the CASAC 

and the public in preparing revisions to 

these documents. The EPA will consider 

public comments submitted in response 

to this notice when revising the 

documents. The documents that are the 

subject of today’s notice do not 

represent and should not be construed 

to represent any final EPA policy, 

viewpoint or determination.
