Any additional comments on this ICR should be submitted to EPA and OMB within 30 days of this notice.

                    EPA has established a public docket for this ICR under Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OW-2007-0201, which is available for online viewing at                     *http://www.regulations.gov,*                     or in person viewing at the Water Docket in the EPA Docket Center (EPA/DC), EPA West, Room 3334, 1301 Constitution Ave., NW., Washington, DC.

*Title:*                     National Listing of Fish Advisories (Renewal).                

*ICR numbers:*                     EPA ICR No. 1959.04, OMB Control No. 2040-0226.                

*ICR Status:*                     This ICR is scheduled to expire on February 28, 2011. Under OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to conduct or sponsor the collection of information while this submission is pending at OMB. An Agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information, unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA's regulations in title 40 of the CFR, after appearing in the                     **Federal Register**                     when approved, are listed in 40 CFR part 9, are displayed either by publication in the                     **Federal Register**                     or by other appropriate means, such as on the related collection instrument or form, if applicable. The display of OMB control numbers in certain EPA regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR part 9.                

*Abstract:*                     The National Listing of Fish Advisories (NLFA) Database contains information on the number of advisories issued by each state, territory, or tribe annually. The advisory information collected identifies the waterbody under advisory, the fish or shellfish species                           ( print page 9775)                        and size ranges included in the advisory, the chemical contaminants and residue levels causing the advisory to be issued, the waterbody type (river, lake, estuary, coastal waters), and the target populations to whom the advisory is directed. This information is collected under the authority of section 104 of the Clean Water Act, which provides for the collection of information to be used to protect human health and the environment. The results of the survey are shared with states, territories, tribes, other federal agencies, and the general public through the NLFA database and the distribution of biennial fish advisory fact sheets. The responses to the survey are voluntary and the information requested is part of the state public record associated with the advisories. No confidential business information is requested.                

*Burden Statement:*                     The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average approximately 36 hours per response. Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements which have subsequently changed; train personnel to be able to respond to a collection of information; search data sources; complete and review the collection of information; and transmit or otherwise disclose the information.                

*Respondents/Affected Entities:*                     State, territorial and tribal health departments and environmental protection agencies.                

*Estimated Number of Respondents:*                     92.                

*Frequency of Response:*                     Annual.                

*Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:*                     3,336.                

*Estimated Total Annual Cost:*                     $125,697, includes $125,177 labor and $520 annualized O&M costs. No capital or startup costs are required.                

*Changes in the Estimates:*                     There is a decrease of 229 hours in the total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR Burdens. This decrease reflects a change in how the States, Tribes and territories provide the fish advisory data to EPA. The data tool is no longer being used by States to enter data into the NLFA database.
