SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background: Under section 108 of the 

Clean Air Act (CAA or Act), the Agency 

is required to establish National 

Ambient Air Quality Standards 

(NAAQS) for each pollutant for which 

EPA has issued criteria, including ozone 

(O3). Section 109(d) of the CAA 

subsequently requires periodic review 

and, if appropriate, revision of existing 

air quality criteria and standards to 

reflect advances in scientific knowledge 

on the effects of the pollutant on public 

health and welfare. The Agency revised 

the NAAQS for O3 in July 1997. EPA’s 

Office of Research and Development 

(ORD) released a draft updated air 

quality criteria document for O3 (draft 

Ozone AQCD) in January 2005. The 

CASAC Ozone Review Panel met in a 

public meeting to conduct a peer review 

on this draft Ozone AQCD on May 4–

5, 2005. EPA’s Office of Air Quality 

Planning and Standards (OAQPS), 

within the Office of Air and Radiation 

(OAR), is in the process of developing 

a draft updated Staff Paper for O3 as part 

of its review of the O3 NAAQS. This 

draft Staff Paper will evaluate the policy 

implications of the key scientific and 

technical information contained in the 

draft Ozone AQCD and identify critical 

elements that EPA believes should be 

considered in the review of the O3

NAAQS. The O3 Staff Paper is intended 

to ‘‘bridge the gap’’ between the 

scientific review contained in the Ozone 

AQCD and the public health and 

welfare policy judgments required of the 

EPA Administrator in reviewing the O3

NAAQS. OAQPS has developed a draft 

Ozone Environmental Assessment Plan, 

which outlines the scope, approaches, 

and key issues in estimating vegetation 

exposure, risk, and impacts on 

economic values posed by O3. 

EPA is soliciting advice and 

recommendations from the CASAC, by 

means of a consultation on the draft 

Ozone Environmental Assessment Plan, 

on the overall scope, approaches, and 

key issues in advance of the completion 

of such analyses and presentation of 

results in the draft O3 Staff Paper. The 

CASAC, which is comprised of seven 

members appointed by the EPA 

Administrator, was established under 

section 109(d)(2) of the Clean Air Act 

(CAA or Act) (42 U.S.C. 7409) as an 

independent scientific advisory 

committee, in part to provide advice, 

information and recommendations on 

the scientific and technical aspects of 

issues related to air quality criteria and 

national ambient air quality standards 

(NAAQS) under sections 108 and 109 of 

the Act. The CASAC is a Federal 

advisory committee chartered under the 

Federal Advisory Committee Act 

(FACA), as amended, 5 U.S.C., App. The 

CASAC Ozone Review Panel complies 

with the provisions of FACA and all 

appropriate SAB Staff Office procedural 

policies. 

Technical Contact: Any questions 

concerning the draft Ozone 

Environmental Assessment Plan should 

be directed to Ms. Vicki Sandiford, 

OAQPS, at phone: (919) 541–2629, or 

e-mail: sandiford.vicki@epa.gov.
