persons who have not pre-registered 

may be permitted by the Chair of the

that this includes all individuals 

appearing either as part of, or on behalf 

of, an organization. While it is our 

intent to hear a full range of oral

numerous individuals sign up 

separately to speak on their behalf. If 

additional time is available, further 

public comments may be possible. 

2. Written comments. Please submit 

written comments prior to the meeting. 

For the HSRB to have the best 

opportunity to review and consider your 

comments as it deliberates on its report, 

you should submit your comments at 

least five business days prior to the 

beginning of this teleconference. If you 

submit comments after this date, those 

comments will be provided to the Board 

members, but you should recognize that 

the Board members may not have 

adequate time to consider those 

comments prior to making a decision. 

Thus, if you plan to submit written 

comments, the Agency strongly 

encourages you to submit such 

comments no later than noon, Eastern 

Time, Friday, April 5, 2013. You should 

submit your comments using the 

instructions in Section I, under 

subsection C, ‘‘What Should I Consider 

as I Prepare My Comments for the 

EPA?’’ In addition, the EPA also 

requests that persons submitting 

comments directly to the docket also 

provide a copy of their comments to Jim 

Downing or Lu-Ann Kleibacker listed 

under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION
