57688 Federal Register / Vol. 69, No. 186 / Monday, September 27, 2004 / Notices 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 7 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; 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 

and local governments, State and county 

colleges, and those organizations which 

provide training assistance through the 

Clean Water Act 104(g)(1) Program to 

municipal wastewater treatment plants. 

Estimated Number of Respondents:

46. 

Frequency of Response: Annually and 

biannually. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:

322. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost:

$13,000, includes $0 annualized capital/

startup costs, $0 annual O&M costs and 

$13,000 annual labor costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is a 

decrease of 14 hours in the total 

estimated burden currently identified in 

the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR 

Burdens. This decrease is due to the 

reduction of the number of respondents 

from forty-eight (48) to forty-six (46). 

There is an increase of $6,000 in the 

total estimated cost burden. This 

increase is due to the increase of the 

average salary of those involved in 

reporting.

Federal Register notice describing the

edocket.

Affected entities: States, tribes, and 

territories that have primary 

enforcement authority and meet the 

definition of ‘‘state’’ under the Safe 

Drinking Water Act (Act).

Title: Annual Public Water Systems 

Compliance Report (Renewal). 

Abstract: Section 1414(c)(3)(A) of the 

Safe Drinking Water Act requires that 

each state that has primary enforcement 

authority under the Act shall prepare, 

make readily available to the public, 

Federal Register / Vol. 69, No. 186 / Monday, September 27, 2004 / Notices 57689

and submit to the Administrator of EPA, 

an annual report of violations of 

national primary drinking water 

regulations in the state. The states’

reports are to include violations of 

maximum contaminant levels, treatment 

requirements, variances and 

exemptions, and monitoring 

requirements determined to be 

significant by the Administrator after 

consultation with the states. Section 

1414(c)(3)(B) of the Safe Drinking Water 

Act requires EPA to prepare and make 

available to the public an annual report 

that summarizes and evaluates the 

reports submitted by the states pursuant 

to section 1414(c)(3)(A). EPA’s annual 

national report must also provide 

specified information about 

implementation of the public water 

system supervision system on Indian 

reservations and make 

recommendations concerning the 

resources necessary to improve 

compliance with the Safe Drinking 

Water Act. The States have already 

prepared and published seven annual 

reports. EPA has prepared and 

published six national reports. 

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. In an effort to 

minimize a state’s burden in preparing 

its annual statutorily-required report, 

EPA issued guidance that explains what 

Section 1414(c)(3)(A) requires and 

provides model language and reporting 

templates. EPA also annually makes 

available to the states a computer query 

that generates for each state (from 

information states are already required 

to submit to EPA’s national database on 

a quarterly basis) the required violations 

information in a table consistent with 

the reporting template in EPA’s 

guidance. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 208 hours for 

annual 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; 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: States, 

Tribes, and territories that have primary 

enforcement authority and meet the 

definition of ‘‘state’’ under the Safe 

Drinking Water Act. 

Estimated Number of Respondents:

56. 

Frequency of Response: Annually. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:

4,480. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost:

$280,000, includes $0 annual capital/

startup costs, $0 annual O&M costs and 

$280,000 annual labor costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is an 

increase of 180 hours in the total 

estimated burden currently identified in 

the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR 

Burdens. This is due to the fact that the 

Navajo Nations was approved for 

primacy on December 6, 2000, which 

increased the number of respondents.
