SUMMARY: Under the Federal Advisory Committee Act, Public Law 92463, 
EPA gives notice of a public teleconference of the National Advisory 
Council for Environmental Policy and Technology (NACEPT). NACEPT 
provides advice to the EPA Administrator on a broad range of 
environmental policy, technology, and management issues. The Council is 
a panel of individuals who represent diverse interests from academia, 
industry, non-governmental organizations, and local, State, and tribal 
governments. The purpose of this teleconference is to discuss and 
approve the Draft NACEPT Comments on the EPA 2007 Report on the

audience of ``civic-minded individuals.'' EPA's Report on the 
Environment 2007 consists of three products: A Science Report 
containing detailed scientific and technical information, a Highlights 
Document written for concerned citizens, and an electronic document 
facilitating access to material in the reports. A copy of the agenda 
for the meeting will be posted at http://www.epa.gov/ocem/nacept/cal-nacept.htm
