SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background: The Clean Air Scientific 

Advisory Committee (CASAC) 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. CASAC 

provides advice, information and 

recommendations on the scientific and 

technical aspects of 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 Panel will comply with the 

provisions of FACA and all appropriate 

SAB Staff Office procedural policies. 

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 NOX

and SOX. EPA is in the process of 

reviewing the secondary NAAQS for 

NOX and SOX. Welfare effects as defined 

in the CAA includes, but is not limited 

to, effects on soils, water, wildlife, 

vegetation, visibility, weather, and 

climate, as well as effects on materials, 

economic values, and personal comfort 

and well-being. As part of that process, 

EPA’s Office of Research and 

Development (ORD) issued the Draft 

Integrated Science Assessment fox 

Oxides of Nitrogen and Sulfur— 

Environmental Criteria (ISA) in 

December 2007 and recently issued the 

second draft ISA in August 2008. EPA’s 

Office of Air and Radiation (OAR) 

released its Scope and Methods Plan for 

Risk/Exposure Assessment (REA) in 

March 2008. OAR completed the first 

draft REA in August 2008. The CASAC 

reviewed the first draft ISA and 

provided consultative advice on the 

Scope and Methods plan on April 1–2, 

2008. The CASAC’s reports to the 

Administrator can be found on the SAB 

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

(see EPA–CASAC–08–011 and EPA– 

CASAC–08–012 both dated May 19, 

2008). 

The purpose of the October 1–2, 2008 

meeting is for the CASAC Panel to 

conduct a peer review of the second 

draft ISA and the first draft REA. The 

chartered CASAC will review and 

approve the Panel’s draft reports on the 

ISA and REA by public conference call 

on October 30, 2008.

officials concerned with public water 

supply and public health protection (1 

vacancy), the general public (2 

vacancies) and interest groups (2 

vacancies), with at least one of these 

vacancies representing small systems. 

All nominations will be fully 

considered, but applicants need to be 

aware of the specific representation 

needed as well as geographical balance 

so that all major areas of the U.S. (East, 

Mid-West, South, Mountain, SouthWest, and West) will be represented.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: National 

Drinking Water Advisory Council: The 

Council consists of 15 members, 

including a Chairperson, appointed by 

the Deputy Administrator. Five 

members represent the general public; 

five members represent appropriate 

State and local agencies concerned with 

public water supply and public health 

protection; and five members represent 

private organizations or groups 

demonstrating an active interest in the 

field of public water supply and public 

health protection. The SDWA requires 

that at least two members of the Council 

represent small, rural public water 

systems. Additionally, members may be 

asked to serve on one of the Council’s 

workgroups that are established on an 

as-needed basis to assist EPA in 

addressing specific program issues. On 

December 15 of each year, some 

members complete their appointment. 

Therefore, this notice solicits 

nominations to fill five vacancies with 

terms ending on December 15, 2011. 

Persons selected for membership will 

receive compensation for travel and a 

nominal daily compensation (if 

appropriate) while attending meetings. 

The Council holds two face-to-face 

meetings each year, generally in the

Pesticide Registration Review; New 

Dockets Opened for Review and 

Comment; Closure of the Fenamiphos 

Registration Review Case 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: EPA has established 

registration review dockets for the 

pesticides listed in the table in Unit 

III.A. With this document, EPA is 

opening the public comment period for 

these registration reviews. Registration 

review is EPA’s periodic review of 

pesticide registrations to ensure that 

each pesticide continues to satisfy the 

statutory standard for registration, that 

is, the pesticide can perform its 

intended function without unreasonable 

adverse effects on human health or the 

environment. Registration review 

dockets contain information that will 

assist the public in understanding the 

types of information and issues that the 

Agency may consider during the course 

of registration reviews. Through this 

program, EPA is ensuring that each 

pesticide’s registration is based on 

current scientific and other knowledge, 

including its effects on human health 

and the environment. This document 

also announces the Agency’s intent not 

to open a registration review docket for 

fenaminphos. This pesticide does not 

currently have any actively registered 

pesticide products and is not, therefore, 

scheduled for review under the 

registration review program. 

DATES: Comments must be received on 

or before December 17, 2008. 

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments 

identified by the docket identification 

(ID) number for the specific pesticide of 

interest provided in the table in Unit 

III.A., by one of the following methods: 

• Federal eRulemaking Portal: 

http://www.regulations.gov. Follow the 

on-line instructions for submitting 

comments.

If you send an e-mail comment directly 

to EPA without going through 

regulations.gov, your e-mail address 

will be automatically captured and

on the Internet. If you submit an 

electronic comment, EPA recommends 

that you include your name and other 

contact information in the body of your 

comment and with any disk or CD-ROM 

you submit. If EPA cannot read your 

comment due to technical difficulties 

and cannot contact you for clarification, 

EPA may not be able to consider your 

comment. Electronic files should avoid 

the use of special characters, any form 

of encryption, and be free of any defects 

or viruses.
