SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On February 6, 2006, the Agency 

published a final rule for the protection 

of human subjects in research (71 FR 24 

6138) that called for creating a new, 

independent human studies review 

board (i.e., HSRB). The HSRB is a 

federal advisory committee operating in 

accordance with the Federal Advisory 

Committee Act (FACA) 5 U.S.C. App. 2 

section 9 (Pub. L. 92–463). The HSRB 

provides advice, information, and 

recommendations to EPA on issues 

related to scientific and ethical aspects 

of human subjects research. The major 

objectives of the HSRB are to provide 

advice and recommendations on: (1) 

Research proposals and protocols that 

include human subjects; (2) reports of 

completed research with human 

subjects; and (3) how to strengthen 

EPA’s programs for protection of human 

subjects of research. Typically, the 

HSRB reviews protocols and completed 

studies involving pesticide studies, such 

as worker exposure studies with 

agricultural handlers applying 

pesticides in field conditions; janitorial 

maintenance personnel applying 

antimicrobial pesticides in commercial 

settings; and field efficacy studies for 

skin applied insect repellent products. 

The HSRB reports to the EPA 

Administrator through EPA’s Science 

Advisor. General information 

concerning the HSRB, including its 

charter, current membership, and 

activities can be found on the EPA Web 

site at https://www.epa.gov/osa/humanstudies-review-board. 

HSRB members serve as special 

government employees or regular 

government employees. Members are 

appointed by the EPA Administrator for 

either two or three year terms with the 

possibility of reappointment for 

additional terms, with a maximum of 

six years of service. The HSRB convenes 

up to four times a year, with most of the 

meetings being virtual. The average 

workload for HSRB members is 

approximately 20 hours per meeting, 

including the time spent at the meeting. 

Responsibilities of HSRB members 

include reviewing extensive background 

materials prior to meetings of the Board, 

preparing draft responses to Agency 

charge questions, attending Board 

meetings, participating in the discussion 

and deliberations at these meetings, 

drafting assigned sections of meeting 

reports, and assisting with the 

finalization of HSRB reports. EPA 

compensates special government 

employees for their time and provides 

reimbursement for travel and other 

incidental expenses associated with 

official government business related to 

the HSRB meetings. EPA values and 

welcomes diversity. In an effort to 

obtain nominations of diverse 

candidates, EPA encourages 

nominations of women and men of all 

racial and ethnic groups, as well as from 

a variety of backgrounds (e.g., industry, 

non-profit organizations, academia, and 

government). 

Candidates not selected for HSRB 

membership at this time may be 

considered for HSRB membership as 

vacancies arise in the future or for 

service as consultants to the HSRB. 

Members of the HSRB are subject to 

the provisions of 5 CFR part 2634, 

Executive Branch Financial Disclosure, 

as supplemented by the EPA in 5 CFR 

part 6401. In anticipation of this 

requirement, each nominee will be 

asked to submit confidential financial 

information that fully discloses, among 

other financial interests, the candidate’s 

employment, stocks and bonds, and 

where applicable, sources of research 

support. The information provided is 

strictly confidential and will not be 

disclosed to the public. Before a 

candidate is considered further for 

service on the HSRB, EPA will evaluate 

each candidate to assess whether there 

is any conflict of financial interest, 

appearance of a lack of impartiality, or 

prior involvement with matters likely to 

be reviewed by the Board.

Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 178 / Friday, September 15, 2017 / Notices 43359 

Nominations will be evaluated on the 

basis of several criteria, including: The 

professional background, expertise, and 

experience that would contribute to the 

diversity of perspectives of the 

committee; interpersonal, oral, and 

written communication skills and other 

attributes that would contribute to the 

HSRB’s collaborative process; consensus 

building skills; absence of any financial 

conflicts of interest or the appearance of 

a lack of impartiality, or lack of 

independence, or bias; and the 

availability to participate in meetings 

and administrative sessions, participate 

in teleconferences, develop policy 

recommendations to the Administrator, 

and prepare recommendations and 

advice in reports. 

Nominations should include a resume 

or curriculum vitae providing the 

nominee’s educational background, 

qualifications, leadership positions in 

national associations or professional 

societies, relevant research experience 

and publications along with a short (one 

page) biography describing how the 

nominee meets the above criteria and 

other information that may be helpful in 

evaluating the nomination, as well as 

the nominee’s current business address, 

email address, and daytime telephone 

number. Interested candidates may selfnominate. 

To help the Agency in evaluating the 

effectiveness of its outreach efforts, 

nominees are requested to inform the 

Agency of how you learned of this 

opportunity. 

Final selection of HSRB members is a 

discretionary function of the Agency 

and will be announced on the HSRB 

Web site at https://www.epa.gov/osa/ 

human-studies-review-board as soon as 

selections are made.
