Structure and Purpose
The Science Advisory Committee (SAC) will be composed of individuals from the scientific, public health, and/or public policy communities who are knowledgeable with regard to ozone science and air modeling research. The Consortium Board of Directors will appoint the Committee. The SAC will review and prioritize research projects to be funded through the Consortium, and such projects will be part of the Consortium's annual Strategic Research Plan. The primary goal of the SAC is to ensure that the selection and implementation of research projects is fair, efficient, independent and scientifically valid.
