AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of public webinar.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)'s Environmental 
Financial Advisory Board (EFAB) will hold a public webinar for the 
third installment of a Pollution Prevention Finance Forum to support 
the EFAB Pollution Prevention workgroup and its charge (https://www.epa.gov/waterfinancecenter/efab#meeting). Due to interest from the 
full Board, this webinar is being opened to the public.

DATES: The webinar will be held on August 23, 2022, from 12 p.m. to 
1:30 p.m. (Eastern Time).

ADDRESSES: The webinar will be conducted via teleconference only and is 
open to the public. Interested persons must register in advance at the 
weblink below to access the webinar.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Any member of the public who wants 
information about the webinar may contact Tara Johnson via telephone/
voicemail at (202) 564-6186 or email to [email protected]. General 
information concerning the EFAB is available at https://www.epa.gov/waterfinancecenter/efab.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Background: The EFAB is an EPA advisory committee chartered under 
the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA), 5 U.S.C. App. 2, to provide 
advice and recommendations to EPA on innovative approaches to funding 
environmental programs, projects, and activities. Administrative 
support for the EFAB is provided by the Water Infrastructure and 
Resiliency Finance Center within EPA's Office of Water. Pursuant to 
FACA and EPA policy, notice is hereby given that the EFAB will hold a 
public webinar for the following purpose:

    The Pollution Prevention Finance Forum is a series of webinars 
that explore opportunities and challenges in financing 
sustainability, with an initial focus on advancing opportunities for 
small and medium-sized manufacturing businesses. The purpose of the 
third Forum webinar is to assess partnership models and explore 
potential partnership opportunities and distribution networks for 
pollution prevention (P2) projects. P2, also known as source 
reduction, is any practice that reduces, eliminates, or prevents 
pollution at its source prior to recycling, treatment, or disposal. 
More information can be found at https://www.epa.gov/p2.

    The webinar is open to the public, but no oral public comments will 
be accepted during the webinar. Written public comments relating to the 
Forum and the EFAB's Pollution Prevention workgroup should be provided 
in accordance with the instructions below on written statements.
    Registration for the Meeting: Register for the webinar at https://www.zoomgov.com/webinar/register/WN_mzc_c2tRR06o-cBHZNS8Jg.
    Availability of Meeting Materials: Webinar materials (including an 
agenda and background materials) will be available on EPA's website at 
https://www.epa.gov/waterfinancecenter/efab#meeting.
    Procedures for Providing Public Input: Public comment for 
consideration by EPA's federal advisory committees has a different 
purpose from public comment provided to EPA program offices. Therefore, 
the process for submitting comments to a federal advisory committee is 
different from the process used to submit comments to an EPA program 
office. Federal advisory committees provide independent advice to EPA. 
Members of the public can submit comments on matters being considered 
by the EFAB for consideration by members as they develop their advice 
and recommendations to EPA.
    Written Statements: Written statements and questions should be 
received by August 18, 2022, so that the information can be made 
available to the EFAB for its consideration. Written statements and 
questions should be sent via email to [email protected]. Members of the 
public should be aware that their personal contact information, if 
included in any written comments, may be posted to the EFAB website. 
Copyrighted material will not be posted without explicit permission of 
the copyright holder.
    Accessibility: For information on access or services for 
individuals with disabilities or to request accommodations for a 
disability, please register for the webinar and list any

special requirements or accommodations needed on the registration form 
at least 10 business days prior to the meeting to allow as much time as 
possible to process your request.
