PLACE: U.S. Chemical Safety Board, 2175 K St. NW., 4th Floor
Conference Room, Washington, DC 20037.

MATTERS TO BE CONSIDERED: The Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation
Board (CSB) will convene a public meeting on June 18, 2015, starting at
9:30 a.m. at the CSB's headquarters, located at 2175 K St. NW., 4th
Floor Conference Room, Washington, DC 20037. The meeting will focus on
the Proposed Rule to amend 40 CFR 1600--Organization and Functions of
the Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board. This proposed rule
(80 FR 27276 (May 13, 2015)), which was considered and approved during
the CSB's May 6, 2015, public meeting, adds a requirement to the CSB's
internal administrative rules for the Chairperson to add notation votes
that have been calendared for public discussion to the agenda of a
public meeting within 90 days of the calendared notation vote. The
proposed rule also adds a requirement for the Chairperson, or in the
absence of a Chairperson, a member designated by the Board, to schedule
a minimum of four public meetings per year in Washington, DC. The CSB
is accepting comments on the proposed rule until June 12, 2015. The
agenda may also include Board discussion and vote(s) on motions related
to Board governance when there is a vacancy in the Chairperson
position.
