SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: EPA has 

submitted the following ICR to OMB for 

review and approval according to the 

procedures prescribed in 5 CFR 1320.12. 

On June 18, 2004 (69 FR 34158), EPA 

sought comments on this ICR pursuant 

to 5 CFR 1320.8(d). EPA received only 

one comment. The commenter 

suggested that EPA establish zeroemission requirements for nonroad 

engines. 

EPA has established a public docket 

for this ICR under Docket ID number 

OAR–2004–0058, which is available for 

public viewing at the Air and Radiation 

Docket and Information Center, in the 

EPA Docket Center (EPA/DC), EPA 

West, Room B102, 1301 Constitution 

Avenue, NW., Washington, DC. The 

EPA Docket Center Public Reading 

Room is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 

p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding 

legal holidays. The telephone number 

for the Reading Room is (202) 566–1744, 

and the telephone number for the Air 

and Radiation Docket and Information 

Center is (202) 566–1742. An electronic 

version of the public docket is available 

through EPA Dockets (EDOCKET) at 

http://www.epa.gov/edocket. Use

identified above. 

Any comments related to this ICR 

should be submitted to EPA and OMB 

within 30 days of this notice. EPA’s 

policy is that public comments, whether 

submitted electronically or in paper,

Title: Transition Program for 

Equipment Manufacturers (Renewal). 

Abstract: In August 1998, EPA 

established emission standards (Tier I 

standards) for engines under 37 kW, and 

tightened existing standards (Tier II 

standards) for engines above 37 kW. 

These regulations are likely to cause 

some engine design changes. During the 

rulemaking process, some equipment 

manufacturers expressed concerns about 

delays in notification from engine 

manufacturers about engine design 

changes. These design changes can 

create problems in fitting the engine to 

the equipment. Consequently, 

equipment manufacturers would be 

unable to sell the volume of equipment 

they planned for, since they would need 

to redesign their equipment before any 

products could be sold. In an effort to 

provide original equipment 

manufacturers (OEMs) with some 

Federal Register / Vol. 69, No. 186 / Monday, September 27, 2004 / Notices 57691

flexibility in complying with the 

regulations, EPA created the Transition 

Program for Equipment Manufacturers 

(TPEM). Under the program, OEMs are 

allowed to use a number of 

noncompliant engines (uncertified 

engines rated below 37 kW or Tier I 

engines rated at or above 37 kW) in their 

equipment for up to seven years after 

the effective date of the standards. 

Participation in the program is 

voluntary. Participating OEMs and 

engine manufacturers who provide the 

noncompliant engines to the OEMs are 

required to keep records and submit 

reports of their activities under the 

program. 

The information is collected for 

compliance purposes by the Engine 

Programs Group, Certification and 

Compliance Division, Office of 

Transportation and Air Quality, Office 

of Air and Radiation. Confidentiality of 

proprietary information is granted in 

accordance with the Freedom of 

Information Act, EPA regulations at 40 

CFR part 2, and class determinations 

issued by EPA’s Office of General 

Counsel. 

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 40 

CFR are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and are 

identified on the form and/or 

instrument, if applicable. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 80.5 hours per 

equipment manufacturer or postmanufacture marinizer, and 74.5 hours 

per engine manufacturer. 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 of nonroad compressionignition engines and equipment. 

Estimated Number of Respondents:

213. 

Frequency of Response: Annually and 

on occasion. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:

17,069. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost:

$848,582, which includes $0 annualized 

capital/startup costs, $5,829 annual 

O&M costs, and $842,753 annual labor 

costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is a 

decrease of 49,578 hours in the total 

estimated burden currently identified in 

the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR 

Burdens. This decrease is due to 

changes in the estimated number of 

respondents. The decrease in burden is, 

therefore, due to an adjustment to the 

estimates.
