SUMMARY: Under the Federal Advisory Committee Act, Public Law 92463,

on sustainability will address two topics: (1) What strengths EPA can 
leverage to successfully deploy sustainability practices across the 
Agency, and (2) what 3-5 year breakthrough objectives are related to 
sustainability implementation and recommended measurement systems for 
assessing progress toward EPA's sustainability vision. A copy of the 
agenda for the meeting will be posted at http://www.epa.gov/ofacmo/nacept/cal-nacept.htm.
