SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background: The SAB was 

established pursuant to the 

Environmental Research, Development, 

and Demonstration Authorization Act 

(ERDDAA), codified at 42 U.S.C. 4365, 

to provide independent scientific and 

technical advice to the EPA 

Administrator on the scientific and 

technical basis for agency positions and 

regulations. The SAB is a Federal 

Advisory Committee chartered under 

the Federal Advisory Committee Act 

(FACA), 5 U.S. Code 10. The SAB will 

comply with the provisions of FACA 

and all appropriate SAB Staff Office 

procedural policies. Pursuant to FACA 

and EPA policy, notice is hereby given 

that the chartered Science Advisory 

Board will hold a public meeting to (1) 

receive a briefing from EPA on 

cumulative impacts research, (2) 

conduct quality reviews for three draft 

SAB reports (a review of EPA’s draft 

IRIS toxicological review of inorganic 

arsenic, a review of EPA’s draft 

technical guidance for assessing 

environmental justice in regulatory 

analysis, and a draft commentary on 

advancing environmental justice science 

in rulemaking), (3) discuss 

recommendations received from the 

SAB Work Group for Review of Science 

Supporting EPA Decisions concerning 

SAB review of EPA planned regulatory 

actions, and (4) conduct a consultation 

with EPA on chemical mixtures. 

Availability of meeting materials: All 

meeting materials, including the agenda, 

will be available on the SAB web page 

at https://sab.epa.gov. 

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 the EPA.
