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 scope of this ICR is the 

electronic reporting components of the 

Cross-Media Electronic Reporting Rule 

(CROMERR), which is designed to: 

allow EPA to comply with the 

Government Paperwork Elimination Act 

of 1998; provide a uniform, technologyneutral framework for electronic 

reporting across all EPA programs; 

allow EPA programs to offer electronic 

reporting as they become ready for 

CROMERR; and provide states with a 

streamlined process—together with 

uniform set of standards—for approval 

of their electronic reporting provisions 

for all their EPA-authorized programs. 

Use of electronic reporting is voluntary. 

In order to accommodate CBI, the 

information collected must be in 

accordance with the confidentiality 

regulations set forth in 40 CFR Part 2, 

subpart B. Additionally, EPA will 

ensure that the information collection 

procedures comply with the Privacy Act 

of 1974 and the OMB Circular 108. 

Burden Statement: The overall 

recordkeeping and reporting burden for 

this ICR is estimated to be about 12 

minutes per response. However, the 

actual burden varies between 5 minutes 

and 331 hours depending on the 

specific activity. Please see the 

supporting statement for the details. 

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: 

Facilities reporting electronically to 

EPA and state, tribal, or local 

government authorized programs; and 

state, tribal, and local government 

authorized programs implementing 

electronic reporting. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

EPA estimates that, on average, 87,080 

facility employees will register and 

comply with identity proofing 

requirements of EPA or state, tribal, or 

local government authorized program 

electronic document receiving systems 

each year. EPA estimates that 24 state, 

tribal, or local government authorized 

programs will submit documentation to 

EPA associated with the approval of 

their electronic document receiving 

systems each year. 

Frequency of Response: On occasion. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

39,763 hours. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: The 

estimated total annual cost is 

$2,167,446. This includes an estimated 

labor cost of $1,396,120, capital cost of 

$632,137, and operation and 

maintenance (O&M) cost of $139,189. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is a 

decrease of 38,272 hours in the total 

estimated burden currently identified in 

the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR 

Burdens. This decrease occurred for two 

primary reasons. First, there was a 

decrease in the annualized number of 

respondents. The total number of 

employees registering with EPA’s 

electronic document receiving system 

and/or complying with CROMERR’s 

identity proofing requirements 

decreased from 93,325 in the currently 

approved ICR to 87,080 in this ICR. In 

addition, the total number of state, 

tribal, and local government authorized 

programs upgrading their existing 

electronic document receiving systems 

or developing new electronic document 

receiving systems, and submitting 

documentation associated with the 

approval of CROMERR applications 

decreased from 61 in the currently 

approved ICR to 24 in this ICR. EPA 

conducted a thorough examination of 

available information (e.g., number of 

application received over the past three 

years) in estimating the number of 

respondents subject to the requirements 

of this ICR. EPA thinks that the number 

of respondents included in this ICR is 

a reasonable approximation of the actual 

respondent universe. 

Second, in developing this ICR, EPA 

carefully reviewed the respondent 

activities associated with compliance 

with identify proofing requirements. 

EPA made a few changes to the 

assumptions associated with subscriber 

agreement and LRA alternatives to be 

consistent with actual compliance of 

respondents with these requirements. 

For example, EPA reduced the 

proportion of respondents that use the 

LRA alternative while increasing the 

proportion of respondents that comply 

with subscriber agreement 

requirements. This resulted in a burden 

decrease because the burden associated 

with subscriber agreements is less than 

the LRA burden. EPA notes that few, if 

any, respondents opted to use the LRA 

alternative over the past three years.

What information is EPA particularly 

interested in? 

Pursuant to section 3506(c)(2)(A) of 

the PRA, EPA specifically solicits 

comments and information to enable it 

to: 

(i) Evaluate whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the Agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; 

(ii) evaluate the accuracy of the 

Agency’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; 

(iii) enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and 

(iv) minimize the burden of the 

collection of information on those who 

are to respond, including through the 

use of appropriate automated electronic, 

mechanical, or other technological 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology, e.g., permitting 

electronic submission of responses. In 

particular, EPA is requesting comments 

from very small businesses (those that 

employ less than 25) on examples of 

specific additional efforts that EPA 

could make to reduce the paperwork 

burden for very small businesses 

affected by this collection. 

What should I consider when I prepare 

my comments for EPA? 

You may find the following 

suggestions helpful for preparing your 

comments: 

1. Explain your views as clearly as 

possible and provide specific examples. 

2. Describe any assumptions that you 

used. 

3. Provide copies of any technical 

information and/or data you used that 

support your views. 

4. If you estimate potential burden or 

costs, explain how you arrived at the 

estimate that you provide. 

5. Offer alternative ways to improve 

the collection activity. 

6. Make sure to submit your 

comments by the deadline identified 

under DATES. 

7. To ensure proper receipt by EPA, 

be sure to identify the docket ID number 

assigned to this action in the subject 

line on the first page of your response. 

You may also provide the name, date, 

and Federal Register citation. 

What information collection activity or 

ICR does this apply to? 

Affected entities: Entities potentially 

affected by this action are importers into 

the United States of nonroad engines 

and vehicles. 

Title: Reporting and Recordkeeping 

Requirements for Importation of 

Nonroad Engines and Recreational 

Vehicles (Renewal). 

ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 1723.05, 

OMB Control No. 2060–0320. 

ICR status: This ICR is currently 

scheduled to expire on December 31, 

2011. 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: This ICR covers the burden 

associated with EPA Form 3520–21, a 

declaration form for importers of 

nonroad vehicles or engines into the 

United States, which identifies the 

regulated category of engine or vehicle 

and the regulatory provisions under 

which the importation is taking place. 

In addition, this ICR covers the possible 

burden of EPA Form 3520–8 if it comes 

to be used to request final importation 

clearance for Independent Commercial 

Importers of nonroad Compression 

Ignition engines, who would have to 

bring the engines into compliance and 

provide test results, comparable to the 

use of Form 3520–8 for on-road vehicles 

and engines as covered by OMB 2060– 

0095. The information is used by 

Agency enforcement personnel to verify 

that all nonroad vehicles and engines 

subject to Federal emission 

requirements have been declared upon 

entry or that the category of exclusion 

or exemption from emissions 

requirements has been identified in the 

declaration. The information is also 

used to identify and prosecute violators 

of the regulations and to monitor the 

mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES

Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 125 / Wednesday, June 29, 2011 / Notices 38153 

program in achieving the objectives of 

the regulations. The Forms are required 

before making customs entry; see 19 

CFR 12.73 and 12.74. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 0.81 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. 

The ICR provides a detailed 

explanation of the Agency’s estimate, 

which is only briefly summarized here: 

Estimated total number of potential 

respondents: 4,801. 

Frequency of response: Once per 

entry. (One form per shipment may be 

used). 

Estimated total average number of 

responses for each respondent: 2.5. 

Estimated total annual burden hours: 

6,029. 

Estimated total annual costs: 

$299,481. This includes an estimated 

burden cost of $261,479 and an 

estimated cost of $38,002 for capital 

investment or maintenance and 

operational costs. 

Are there changes in the estimates from 

the last approval? 

There are no changes in the number 

of hours in the total estimated 

respondent burden compared with that 

identified in the ICR currently approved 

by OMB. Form 3520–21 has remained 

relatively unchanged since the previous 

renewal and therefore the burden for 

filling in the form remains unchanged. 

What is the next step in the process for 

this ICR? 

EPA will consider the comments 

received and amend the ICR as 

appropriate. The final ICR package will 

then be submitted to OMB for review 

and approval pursuant to 5 CFR 

1320.12. At that time, EPA will issue 

another Federal Register notice pursuant 

to 5 CFR 1320.5(a)(1)(iv) to announce 

the submission of the ICR to OMB and 

the opportunity to submit additional 

comments to OMB. If you have any 

questions about this ICR or the approval 

process, please contact the technical 

person listed under FOR FURTHER

INFORMATION CONTACT.
