34576 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 135 / Thursday, July 16, 2009 / Notices 

Background: Pursuant to the Federal 

Advisory Committee Act, Public Law 

92–463 5 U.S.C., App. 2 (FACA), notice 

is hereby given that the CASAC Oxides 

of Nitrogen Primary National Ambient 

Air Quality Standards (NAAQ) Review 

Panel will hold a public teleconference 

to provide comments concerning EPA’s 

announced plans to propose revisions to 

National Ambient Air Quality Standards 

for nitrogen dioxide. 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 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 

oxides of nitrogen. The CASAC Oxides 

of Nitrogen Primary NAAQS Review 

Panel has provided advice and review of 

key technical documents associated 

with EPA’s reassessment of the NAAQS 

for oxides of nitrogen, including the 

Agency’s Integrated Science Assessment 

for Oxides of Nitrogen—Health Criteria 

and Risk and Exposure Assessment to 

Support the Review of the NO2 Primary 

National Ambient Air Quality Standard. 

The public may access completed 

CASAC advisory reports related to the 

primary NAAQS review of oxides of 

nitrogen at the CASAC site at http:// 

yosemite.epa.gov/sab/sabproduct.nsf/ 

WebReportsbyTopicCASAC!OpenView. 

On June 29, 2009, EPA announced 

proposed revisions to the NAAQS for 

nitrogen dioxide (NO2), the indicator 

chosen for oxides of nitrogen. The 

proposed revisions for NO2 can be 

found on the EPA Web site at http:// 

www.epa.gov/ttn/naaqs/standards/nox/ 

s_nox_cr_fr.html. Primary standards set 

limits to protect public health, 

including the health of ‘‘sensitive’’ 

populations such as asthmatics, 

children, and the elderly. 

The purpose of the public 

teleconference meeting on August 10, 

2009 is for the CASAC Panel to provide 

comments concerning the proposed 

revisions of the primary NAAQS for 

NO2. 

Technical Contact: Any questions 

concerning the Agency’s proposed rule 

for the revision of the NAAQS for lead 

should be directed to Dr. Scott Jenkins, 

OAR (by telephone (919) 541–1167 or email jenkins.scott@epa.gov). 

Availability of Meeting Materials: The 

draft agenda and other materials for the 

public teleconference of the CASAC 

Panel will be posted on the CASAC’s 

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

Work, Site Costs, Site Access, and 

Covenants Not To Sue for the Evening 

Star Mine Site, Boulder County, CO 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency. 

ACTION: Notice of proposed agreement; 

request for public comment. 

SUMMARY: In accordance with the 

requirements of section 122(h)(1) of the 

Comprehensive Environmental 

Response Compensation, and Liability 

Act of 1980, as amended (‘‘CERCLA’’), 

42 U.S.C. 9622(h)(1), notice is hereby 

given of the proposed administrative 

settlement under section 122(h) of 

CERCLA, 42 U.S.C. 9622(h) between the 

U.S. Environmental Protection Agency 

(‘‘EPA’’) and The County of Boulder 

(The Settling Party). The Settling Party 

consents to and will not contest the 

authority of the United States to enter 

into this Agreement or to implement or 

enforce its terms. In return, the Settling 

Party will receive Covenants Not to Sue 

from EPA. The EPA alleges that the 

Settling Party is a responsible party 

pursuant to Section 107(a) of CERCLA, 

42 U.S.C. 9607(a), and is jointly and 

severally liable for response costs 

incurred and to be incurred at or in 

connection with the Site. 

The Settling Party agrees to perform 

work at the Site. The work to be 

implemented generally includes, but is 

not limited to, removing a road that was 

installed to access the Site, adding riprap material below waste rock 

impoundments, securing the Site, 

maintaining the soil cover and 

vegetation of the re-graded waste rock 

areas, and to take over operation and 

maintenance of the Site. The Settling 

Party also will pay within 30 days after 

the effective date of this Proposed 

Agreement $193,572.52 for Site Past 

Response Costs. EPA retains all of its 

access authorities and rights, including 

enforcement authorities related thereto, 

under CERCLA, RCRA, and any other 

applicable statutes or regulations. This 

covenant not to sue is conditioned upon 

the satisfactory performance by the 

Settling Party of their obligations under 

this Agreement. The Settling Party 

recognizes that this Agreement has been 

negotiated in good faith and that this 

Agreement is entered into without the 

admission or adjudication of any issue 

of fact or law.
