Notice of Public Webinar Briefing

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of public webinar briefing.

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

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)'s Environmental 
Financial Advisory Board (EFAB) will hold a public webinar briefing on 
August 26, 2021. The purpose of the webinar will be for an Opportunity 
Zones Practitioner Panel for the EFAB Opportunity Zones Workgroup. Due 
to interest from the full Board, this webinar is being opened to the 
public.

DATES: The webinar will be held on August 26, 2021 from 12 p.m. to 1:30 
p.m. (Eastern Time).

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

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Any member of the public who wants 
information about the meeting may contact Ed Chu, the Designated 
Federal Officer, via telephone/voice mail at (913) 551-7333 or email to 
efab@epa.gov. 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 briefing for the following purpose:
    (1) The purpose of the webinar will be for members of the EFAB to 
hear from Opportunity Zones practitioners who work on Opportunity Zones 
investments in disadvantaged communities and are willing to share their 
experiences to support the workgroup's charge. The webinar is open to 
the public, but no oral public comments will be accepted during the 
briefing. Written public comments relating to the Opportunity Zones 
Workgroup should be provided in accordance with the instructions below 
on written statements.
    Registration for the Meeting: Register for the meeting at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/us-epa-environmental-financial-advisory-board-opportunity-zones-panel-tickets-164877317495.
    Availability of Meeting Materials: Meeting materials (including the 
meeting agenda and briefing materials) will be available on EPA's 
website at https://www.epa.gov/waterfinancecenter/efab.
    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 for the webinar should be 
received by August 20, 2021 so that the information can be made 
available to the EFAB for its consideration. Written statements should 
be sent via email to efab@epa.gov. 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.

    Dated: August 5, 2021.

Director, Office of Wastewater Management, Office of Water.
