General information concerning the EPA 

SAB can be found at http://

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 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 Administrator on 

the 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.C., App. 2. 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 SAB CAAC TMB Panel will 

hold a public teleconference and public 

face-to-face meeting. The purpose of the 

teleconference is to discuss the charge 

questions, to learn about the 

development of the agency’s draft IRIS 

Toxicological Review of 

Trimethylbenzenes (August 2013 

Revised External Review Draft) and 

learn about the Health and Environment 

Research Online (HERO) database. The 

purposes of the face-to-face meeting are 

to receive a briefing on the EPA’s 

enhancements to the IRIS Program, 

including the process for developing 

IRIS assessments, and to conduct a peer 

review of the EPA’s draft IRIS 

assessment of trimethylbenzenes. This 

SAB panel will provide advice to the 

Administrator through the chartered 

SAB. 

Background: EPA’s Office of Research 

and Development requested that the 

SAB conduct a peer review of the draft 

IRIS Toxicological Review of 

Trimethylbenzenes (August 2013 

Revised External Review Draft). The 

EPA SAB Staff Office augmented the 

SAB CAAC with subject matter experts 

to provide advice through the chartered 

SAB regarding this IRIS assessment. The 

SAB CAAC–TMB Review Panel was 

scheduled to meet on February 18–20, 

2014 to conduct a peer review of the 

draft IRIS assessment of 

trimethylbenzenes (79 Federal Register 

5400–5402). To allow more time for the 

public to prepare for the meeting, the 

agency asked the SAB to reschedule its 

February meeting. Additional 

information about this advisory activity, 

including, the formation of the SAB 

CAAC–TMB Review Panel, can be

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. 

Interested members of the public may 

submit relevant information on the topic 

of this advisory activity, and/or the 

group conducting the activity, for the 

SAB to consider during the advisory 

process. Input from the public to the 

SAB will have the most impact if it 

provides specific scientific or technical 

information or analysis for SAB 

committees and 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 DFO directly. Oral 

Statements: In general, individuals or 

groups requesting an oral presentation 

on the teleconference will be limited to 

three minutes and oral presentation at 

the face-to-face meeting will be limited 

to five minutes. Interested parties 

wishing to provide comments should 

contact Mr. Thomas Carpenter 

(preferably via email) at the contact 

information noted above by May 13, 

2014 to be placed on the list of public 

speakers for the teleconference and by 

June 9, 2014 to be placed on the list of 

public speakers for the face-to-face 

meeting. Written Statements: Written 

statements will be accepted throughout 

the advisory process; however, for 

timely consideration by Committee/

Panel members, statements should be 

supplied to the DFO via email at the 

contact information noted above at least 

one week prior to a public meeting. 

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 Mr. Thomas 

Carpenter at (202) 564–4885 or 

carpenter.thomas@epa.gov. To request 

accommodation of a disability, please 

contact Mr. Carpenter preferably at least 

ten days prior to the meeting to give 

EPA as much time as possible to process 

your request.

Notification of a Public Teleconference 

of the Clean Air Scientific Advisory 

Committee Augmented for the Sulfur 

Oxides Review 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The EPA Science Advisory 

Board (SAB) Staff Office announces a 

public teleconference of the Clean Air 

Scientific Advisory Committee (CASAC) 

Augmented for the Sulfur Oxides 

Review to review the EPA’s Integrated 

Review Plan for the Primary National 

Ambient Air Quality Standard for Sulfur 

Dioxide (External Review Draft—March 

2014). 

DATES: The CASAC Augmented for the 

Sulfur Oxides Review will hold a public 

teleconference on Tuesday, April 22, 

2014, from 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. 

(Eastern Time). 

ADDRESSES: The CASAC public 

teleconference will take place via

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Any 

member of the public who wants further 

information concerning the CASAC’s 

public teleconference may contact Dr. 

Diana Wong, Designated Federal Officer 

(DFO) via telephone at (202) 564–2049 

or email at wong.diana-M@epa.gov. 

General information concerning the 

CASAC can be found on the EPA Web 

site at http://www.epa.gov/casac. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

CASAC was established pursuant to the 

Clean Air Act (CAA) Amendments of 

1977, codified at 42 U.S.C. 7409D(d)(2), 

to review air quality criteria and 

NAAQS and recommend any new 

NAAQS and revisions of existing 

criteria and NAAQS as may be 

appropriate. The CASAC shall also 

provide advice, information, and 

recommendations to the Administrator 

on the scientific and technical aspects of 

issues related to the criteria for air 

quality standards, research related to air 

quality, sources of air pollution, and of 

adverse effects which may result from 

various strategies to attain and maintain 

air quality standards . The CASAC is a 

Federal Advisory Committee chartered 

under the Federal Advisory Committee 

Act (FACA), 5 U.S.C., App. 2. 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 oxides of sulfur. 

EPA is currently reviewing the primary 

(health-based) NAAQS for sulfur 

dioxide (SO2), as an indicator for health 

effects caused by the presence of oxides 

of sulfur in the ambient air. 

For purposes of the review of the 

sulfur oxides air quality criteria for 

health and the primary NAAQS for 

sulfur dioxide, the CASAC Augmented 

for the Sulfur Oxides Review was 

formed following a request for public 

nominations of experts (78 FR 43880— 

43881, July 22, 2013). Pursuant to FACA 

and EPA policy, notice is hereby given 

that the CASAC Augmented for the 

Sulfur Oxides Review will hold a public 

teleconference to peer review EPA’s 

Integrated Review Plan for the Primary 

National Ambient Air Quality Standard 

for Sulfur Dioxide (External Review 

Draft—March, 2014). The CASAC and 

the CASAC Augmented for the Sulfur 

Oxides Review will comply with the 

provisions of FACA and all appropriate 

SAB Staff Office procedural policies. 

Technical Contacts: Any technical 

questions concerning the Integrated 

Review Plan for the Primary National 

Ambient Air Quality Standard for Sulfur
