Pursuant to the Federal Advisory Committee Act, Public Law 92-463,
notice is hereby given that several committees of the Science Advisory
Board (SAB) will meet on the dates and times described below. All times
noted are Eastern Time. Documents that are the subject of SAB reviews

Environmental Futures Committee
The Environmental Futures Committee (EFC) of the Science Advisory
Board (SAB) will conduct two public meetings one on August 2-3, 1994 at
the Hyatt Regency Crystal City, 2799 Jefferson Davis Highway,

begin at approximately 8:30 am and adjourn daily by 5:00 pm.
The Environmental Futures Committee (EFC) was formed by the SAB at
the request of Administrator Browner to assist the Agency in
anticipating environmental problems, issues and opportunities. The
charge to this Committee includes: developing a procedure for short and
long-term forecasting of natural and anthropogenic developments which
may affect environmental quality and its protection; develop detailed
examinations procedures and apply them to some future developments; and
draw implications from the examinations of future developments and
recommend actions for EPA to address them. At these meetings, the EFC
will receive briefings on Futures issues; discuss the overall progress
of the project (including tracking the activities of the SAB Standing
Committees that are involved in the project); and continue work on its
draft report.
These meetings are open to the public, but seating is limited and
available on a first come basis. Any member of the public wishing
further information concerning the meetings or who wishes to submit
oral or written comments (at least 25 copies) should contact one of the
