email at <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#703b191c171f02155e3311021f1c091e301500115e171f06"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="b3f8dadfd4dcc1d69df0d2c1dcdfcaddf3d6c3d29dd4dcc5">[email protected]</span></a>. General information about the SAB, as 
well as any updates concerning the meetings announced in this notice 
can be found on the SAB website at https://sab.epa.gov.

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.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 Science Advisory Board DWC Augmented for the CCL 
5 5 Review will hold a public meeting to discuss their draft report 
reviewing EPA's Draft Fifth Drinking Water Contaminant Candidate List 
and associated support documents.
    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. 
Members of the public can submit relevant comments pertaining to the 
committee's charge or meeting materials. Input from the public to the 
SAB will have the most impact if it provides specific scientific or 
technical information or analysis for the SAB to consider or if it 
relates to the clarity or accuracy of the technical information. 
Members of the public wishing to provide comment should follow the 
instruction below to submit comments.
    Oral Statements: In general, individuals or groups requesting an 
oral presentation at a meeting conducted by telephone will be limited 
to three minutes. Each person making an oral statement should consider 
providing written comments as well as their oral statement so that the 
points presented orally can be expanded upon in writing. Persons 
interested in providing oral statements should contact the DFO, in 
writing (preferably via email) at the contact information noted above 
by May 31, 2022, to be placed on the list of registered speakers.
    Written Statements: Written statements will be accepted throughout 
the advisory process; however, for timely consideration by SAB members, 
statements should be submitted to the DFO by May 24, 2022, for 
consideration at the June 6, 2022, meeting. Written statements should 
be supplied to the DFO at the contact information above via email. 
Submitters are requested to provide a signed and unsigned version of 
each document because the SAB Staff Office does not publish documents 
with signatures on its websites. Members of the public should be aware 
that their personal contact information, if included in any written 
comments, may be posted to the SAB website. 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 the DFO, at the contact 
information noted above, preferably at least ten days prior to the 
meeting, to give the EPA as much time as possible to process your 
request.

Thomas H. Brennan,
Director, Science Advisory Board Staff Office.
