15724 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 65 / Tuesday, April 7, 2009 / Notices 

nominees identified by respondents to 

the Federal Register notice and 

additional experts identified by the SAB 

Staff will be posted on the SAB Web site 

at http://www.epa.gov/sab. Public 

comments on this ‘‘Short List’’ of 

candidates will be accepted for 21 

calendar days. The public will be 

requested to provide relevant 

information or other documentation on 

nominees that the SAB Staff Office 

should consider in evaluating 

candidates. 

For the EPA SAB Staff Office, a 

balanced subcommittee or review panel 

includes candidates who possess the 

necessary domains of knowledge, the 

relevant scientific perspectives (which, 

among other factors, can be influenced 

by work history and affiliation), and the 

collective breadth of experience to 

adequately address the charge. In 

establishing the final Ad Hoc panel, the 

SAB Staff Office will consider public 

comments on the ‘‘Short List’’ of 

candidates, information provided by the 

candidates themselves, and background 

information independently gathered by 

the SAB Staff Office. Specific criteria to 

be used for panel membership include: 

(a) Scientific and/or technical expertise, 

knowledge, and experience (primary 

factors); (b) availability and willingness 

to serve; (c) absence of financial 

conflicts of interest; (d) absence of an 

appearance of a lack of impartiality; and 

(e) skills working in committees, 

subcommittees and advisory panels; 

and, for the panel as a whole, (f) 

diversity of, and balance among, 

scientific expertise, viewpoints, etc. 

The SAB Staff Office’s evaluation of 

an absence of financial conflicts of 

interest will include a review of the 

‘‘Confidential Financial Disclosure 

Form for Special Government 

Employees Serving on Federal Advisory 

Committees at the U.S. Environmental 

Protection Agency’’ (EPA Form 3110– 

48). This confidential form allows 

Government officials to determine 

whether there is a statutory conflict 

between that person’s public 

responsibilities (which includes 

membership on an EPA Federal 

advisory committee) and private 

interests and activities, or the 

appearance of a lack of impartiality, as 

defined by Federal regulation. The form 

may be viewed and downloaded from 

the following URL address http:// 

www.epa.gov/sab/pdf/epaform3110– 

48.pdf. 

The approved policy under which the 

EPA SAB Office selects subcommittees 

and review panels is described in the 

following document: Overview of the 

Panel Formation Process at the 

Environmental Protection Agency 

Science Advisory Board (EPA–SAB–EC– 

02–010), which is posted on the SAB 

Web site at http://www.epa.gov/sab/pdf/
