SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. What information is EPA particularly 

interested in? 

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

PRA, EPA specifically solicits 

comments and information to enable it 

to: 

1. 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. 

2. Evaluate the accuracy of the 

Agency’s estimates of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used. 

3. Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected. 

4. 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. 

II. 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. Provide specific examples to 

illustrate your concerns. 

6. Offer alternative ways to improve 

the collection activity. 

7. Make sure to submit your 

comments by the deadline identified 

under DATES. 

8. 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. 

III. What information collection activity 

or ICR does this action apply to? 

Affected entities: Entities potentially 

affected by this ICR are persons who 

perform renovations for compensation 

on housing constructed prior to 1978. 

Title: Lead-Based Paint PreRenovation Information 

Dissemination—TSCA Section 406(b). 

ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 1669.06, 

OMB Control No. 2070–0158. 

ICR status: This ICR is currently 

scheduled to expire on August 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 Code 

of Federal Regulations (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 for certain EPA regulations is 

consolidated in 40 CFR part 9. 

Abstract: This information collection 

involves third-party notification to 

owners and occupants of housing that 

will inform such individuals about the 

dangers of lead-contaminated dust and 

lead-based paint debris that are 

sometimes generated during renovations 

of housing where lead-based paint is 

present, thereby aiding them in avoiding 

potentially hazardous exposures and 

protecting public health. Since young 

children are especially susceptible to 

the hazards of lead, owners and 

occupants with children can take action 

to protect their children from lead 

poisonings. Section 406(b) of the Toxic 

Substances Control Act (TSCA) requires 

EPA to promulgate regulations requiring 

certain persons who perform 

renovations for compensation on target 

housing to provide a lead hazard 

information pamphlet (developed under 

TSCA section 406(a)) to the owner and 

occupants of such housing prior to 

beginning the renovation. Further, the 

firm performing the renovation must 

keep records acknowledging receipt of 

the pamphlet on file for three years after 

completion of work. Those who fail to 

provide the pamphlet or keep records as 

required may be subject to both civil 

and criminal sanctions. 

Responses to the collection of 

information are mandatory (see 40 CFR 

part 745, subpart E). Respondents may 

claim all or part of a document 

confidential. EPA will disclose 

information that is covered by a claim 

of confidentiality only to the extent 

permitted by, and in accordance with, 

the procedures in TSCA section 14 and 

40 CFR part 2. 

Burden statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 0.23 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 

mstockstill on DSKH9S0YB1PROD with NOTICES

Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 71 / Wednesday, April 13, 2011 / Notices 20661 

review the collection of information; 

and transmit or otherwise disclose the 

information. 

The ICR provides a detailed 

explanation of this estimate, which is 

only briefly summarized here: 

Estimated total number of potential 

respondents: 320,504. 

Frequency of response: On occasion. 

Estimated total average number of 

responses for each respondent: 35.4. 

Estimated total annual burden hours: 

2,577,280 hours. 

Estimated total annual costs: 

$140,498,539. This includes an 

estimated burden cost of $140,498,539 

and an estimated cost of $0 for capital 

investment or maintenance and 

operational costs. 

IV. Are there changes in the estimates 

from the last approval? 

There is a decrease of 545,206 hours 

in the total estimated respondent 

burden compared with that identified in 

the ICR currently approved by OMB. 

This decrease reflects EPA’s change in 

methodology for calculating the number 

of target housing renovation events to 

that used in the 2008 Renovation, 

Repair, and Painting rule analysis. The 

supporting statement provides 

additional information. This change is 

an adjustment. 

V. 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. 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.

Title: Contractor Conflicts of Interest. 

ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 1550.09, 

OMB Control No. 2030–0023. 

ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to 

expire on May 31, 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

Abstract: EPA contractors will be 

required to disclose business 

relationships and corporate affiliations 

to determine whether EPA’s interests 

are jeopardized by such relationships. 

Because EPA has the dual responsibility 

of cleanup and enforcement and 

because its contractors are often 

involved in both activities, it is 

imperative that contractors are free from 

conflicts of interest so as not to 

prejudice response and enforcement
