Title: National Volatile Organic 

Compound Emission Standards for 

Aerosol Coatings (Renewal) 

ICR numbers: EPA ICR No 2289.02, 

OMB Control No. 2060–0617. 

ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to 

expire on September 30, 2011. Under 

the OMB regulations, the Agency may 

continue to conduct or sponsor the 

collection of information while this 

submission is pending at the 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 

the 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 the 

OMB control numbers in certain EPA 

regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR 

part 9. 

Abstract: EPA is required, under 

section 183(e) of the Clean Air Act, to 

regulate volatile organic compounds 

(VOC) emissions from the use of 

consumer and commercial products. 

Pursuant to section 183(e)(3), EPA 

published a list of consumer and 

commercial products and a schedule for 

their regulation (60 FR 15264). Aerosol 

coatings were included on the list, and 

the standards for such coatings are 

codified at 40 CFR part 59, subpart E. 

The reports required under the 

standards enable EPA to identify coating 

formulations manufactured, imported or 

distributed in the United States, and to 

determine the product-weighted 

reactivity. The ICR addresses the burden 

for activities conducted in 3 year 

increments after promulgation of the 

national VOC emission standards for 

aerosol coatings. The regulated entities 

read instructions to determine how they 

were affected by the rule. New and 

existing regulated entities submit an 

initial notification. Regulated entities 

are required to submit notifications of 

changes in the products or company 

information and to maintain records. In 

addition, regulated entities are required 

to submit triennial reports of 

formulation data and VOC usage. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 133 hours per 

response over the course of the 3 year 

reporting period. 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; 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: 

manufacturers, distributors, and 

importers of aerosol coatings. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

64. 

Frequency of Response: Annually, 

triennially. 

Estimated Total Average Hour 

Burden: 12,265. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: 

$1,033,626 in labor costs. There are no 

capital or O&M costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is an 

increase of 143 hours in the total 

estimated burden currently identified in 

the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR 

Burdens. Year 1 and 2 burden estimates 

include an initial number of 

respondents that will be required to 

perform recordkeeping and reporting 

activities, and assumes 1 additional 

initial and supplemental reports will be 

required to be completed due to new 

aerosol coating product formulations 

being introduced into the market, or 

changes in existing aerosol coatings 

formulations. Beginning in Year 3, 

triennial reports will be submitted, 

increasing the burden for those years 

where a report is due.

What information collection activity or 

ICR does this apply to? 

Affected entities: Entities potentially 

affected by this action are States. 

Title: State Program Adequacy 

Determination: Municipal Solid Waste 

Landfills (MSWLFs) and NonMunicipal, Non-Hazardous Waste 

Disposal Units that Receive 

Conditionally Exempt Small Quantity 

Generator (CESQG) Hazardous Waste. 

ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 1608.06, 

OMB Control No. 2050–0152. 

ICR status: This ICR is currently 

scheduled to expire on February 29, 

2012. 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: Section 4010(c) of the 

Resource Conservation and Recovery 

Act (RCRA) of 1976 requires that EPA 

revise the landfill criteria promulgated 

under paragraph (1) of Section 4004(a) 

and Section 1008(a)(3). Section 4005(c) 

of RCRA, as amended by the Hazardous 

Solid Waste Amendments (HSWA) of 

1984, requires states to develop and 

implement permit programs to ensure 


wreier-aviles on DSK7SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
58498 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 183 / Wednesday, September 21, 2011 / Notices 

that MSWLFs and non-municipal, nonhazardous waste disposal units that 

receive household hazardous waste or 

CESQG hazardous waste are in 

compliance with the revised criteria for 

the design and operation of nonmunicipal, non-hazardous waste 

disposal units under 40 CFR part 257, 

Subpart B and MSWLFs under 40 CFR 

Part 258. (40 CFR part 257, subpart B 

and 40 CFR part 258 are henceforth 

referred to as the ‘‘revised federal 

criteria’’.) Section 4005(c) of RCRA 

further mandates the EPA Administrator 

to determine the adequacy of state 

permit programs to ensure owner and/ 

or operator compliance with the revised 

federal criteria. A state program that is 

deemed adequate to ensure compliance 

may afford flexibility to owners or 

operators in the approaches they use to 

meet federal requirements, significantly 

reducing the burden associated with 

compliance. 

In response to the statutory 

requirement in § 4005(c), EPA 

developed 40 CFR Part 239, commonly 

referred to as the State Implementation 

Rule (SIR). The SIR describes the state 

application and EPA review procedures 

and defines the elements of an adequate 

state permit program. 

The collection of information from the 

state during the permit program 

adequacy determination process allows 

EPA to evaluate whether a program for 

which approval is requested is 

appropriate in structure and authority to 

ensure owner or operator compliance 

with the revised federal criteria. The SIR 

does not require the use of a particular 

application form. Section 239.3 of the 

SIR, however, requires that all state 

applications contain the following five 

components: 

(1) A transmittal letter requesting 

permit program approval. 

(2) A narrative description of the state 

permit program, including a 

demonstration that the state’s standards 

for non-municipal, non-hazardous waste 

disposal units that receive CESQG 

hazardous waste are technically 

comparable to the part 257, subpart B 

criteria and/or that its MSWLF 

standards are technically comparable to 

the Part 258 criteria. 

(3) A legal certification demonstrating 

that the state has the authority to carry 

out the program. 

(4) Copies of state laws, regulations, 

and guidance that the state believes 

demonstrate program adequacy. 

(5) Copies of relevant state-tribal 

agreements if the state has negotiated 

with a tribe for the implementation of a 

permit program for non-municipal, nonhazardous waste disposal units that 

receive CESQG hazardous waste and/or 

MSWLFs on tribal lands. 

The EPA Administrator has delegated 

the authority to make determinations of 

adequacy, as contained in the statute, to 

the EPA Regional Administrator. The 

appropriate EPA Regional Office, 

therefore, will use the information 

provided by each state to determine 

whether the state’s permit program 

satisfies the statutory test reflected in 

the requirements of 40 CFR part 239. In 

all cases, the information will be 

analyzed to determine the adequacy of 

the state’s permit program for ensuring 

compliance with the federal revised 

criteria. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting burden for this collection of 

information is estimated to average 242 

hours per response. There is no 

recordkeeping burden associated with 

this ICR. 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; 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: 12. 

Frequency of response: On occasion. 

Estimated total average number of 

responses for each respondent: 1. 

Estimated total annual burden hours: 

2,405. 

Estimated total annual costs: 

$128,268. All costs are labor costs, there 

are no capital/start-up or O&M costs 

associated with this ICR. 

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
