SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

At the 2-day meeting, the TDR

Committee will focus mainly on

discussing options for burden reduction

associated with the TRI program. The

meeting will include discussion of the

renewal of the Information Collection

Request for the Alternate Reporting

Threshold Certification Statement (Form

A) and possible modifications to the

Form A or the alternate threshold to

increase burden reduction for eligible

facilities. Some time will also be spent

at the May meeting following up on

items discussed at the March 19–20

TDR meeting. One of the follow-up

items is continued discussion on

possible Committee recommendations

on ways to more clearly present release

data to the public to distinguish

between the various methods of

disposal while still making it possible to

present meaningful statistics on a

national basis about releases. Also, at

the March meeting, the Committee

broke up into four groups and came up

with suggestions for overall revisions to

the Form R. At the May meeting, the
20406 Federal Register / Vol. 63, No. 79 / Friday, April 24, 1998 / Notices

Committee will discuss a draft of a

consolidated version of those ideas.

Information on availability of meeting

summaries from previous TDR meetings

will be available on the TRI Home Page.

The address of the TRI Home Page is

http://www.epa.gov/opptintr/tri. This

information can be found under the

heading ‘‘TRI Stakeholder Dialogue.’’ In

addition, the agenda and an issue paper

outlining topics for discussion at the

May 27–28 Committee meeting will also

be available at this same site prior to the

meeting. Oral presentations or

statements by interested parties will be

limited to 5 minutes. Interested parties

are encouraged to contact Cassandra

Vail, to schedule presentations before
