SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Does this notice apply to me? 

This action is directed to the general 

public. However, this action may be of 

particular interest to parties who 

manufacture nonroad diesel engines and 

equipment and any other parties subject 

to the regulations found in 40 CFR parts 

89 and 1039. 

This Federal Register notice may be 

of particular relevance to parties that 

have submitted data under the abovelisted programs or systems. Since other 

parties may also be interested, the 

Agency has not attempted to describe all 

the specific parties that may be affected 

by this action. If you have further 

questions regarding the applicability of 

this action to a particular party, please 

contact the person listed in FOR FURTHER

INFORMATION CONTACT. 

II. How can I get copies of this 

document and other related 

information? 

A. Electronically 

EPA has established a public docket 

for this Federal Register notice under 

Docket EPA–HQ–OA–2013–0065. 

All documents in the docket are 

identified in the docket index available 

at http://www.regulations.gov. Although 

listed in the index, some information is 

not publicly available, such as 

confidential business information (CBI) 

or other information for which 

disclosure is restricted by statute. 

Certain materials, such as copyrighted 

material, will only be available in hard 

copy at the EPA Docket Center. 

B. EPA Docket Center 

Materials listed under Docket EPA– 

HQ–OA–2013–0065 will be available for 

public viewing at the EPA Docket 

Center (EPA/DC), EPA West, Room 

3334, 1301 Constitution Avenue NW., 

Washington, DC 20460. 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. 

III. Description of Programs and 

Potential Disclosure of Information 

Claimed as Confidential Business 

Information (CBI) to Contractors 

EPA’s Office of Transportation and 

Air Quality (OTAQ) has responsibility 

for protecting public health and the 

environment by regulating air pollution 

from motor vehicles, engines, and the 

fuels used to operate them, and by 

encouraging travel choices that 

minimize emissions. In order to 

implement various Clean Air Act 

programs, and to permit regulated 

entities flexibility in meeting regulatory 

requirements (e.g., compliance on 

average), we collect compliance reports 

and other information from them. 

Occasionally, the information submitted 

is claimed to be confidential business 

information (CBI). Information 

submitted under such a claim is 

handled in accordance with EPA’s 

regulations at 40 CFR part 2, subpart B 

and in accordance with EPA 

procedures, including comprehensive 

system security plans (SSPs) that are 

consistent with those regulations. When 

EPA has determined that disclosure of 

information claimed as CBI to 

contractors is necessary, the 

corresponding contract must address the 

appropriate use and handling of the 

information by the contractor and the 

contractor must require its personnel 

who require access to information 

claimed as CBI to sign written nondisclosure agreements before they are 

granted access to data. 

In accordance with 40 CFR 2.301(h), 

we have determined that the 

contractors, subcontractors, and 

grantees (collectively referred to as 

‘‘contractors’’) listed below require 

access to CBI submitted to us under the 

Clean Air Act and in connection with 

the nonroad diesel engine program and 

we are providing notice and an 

opportunity to comment. OTAQ collects 

this data in order to monitor compliance 

with the nonroad diesel engine program 

and to permit regulated parties 

flexibility in meeting regulatory 

requirements through the trading of 

RINs. We are issuing this Federal 

Register notice to inform all affected 

submitters of information that we plan 

to grant access to material that may be 

claimed as CBI to the contractors 

identified below on a need-to-know 

basis.

docket for this ICR. The docket can be

Abstract: Section 3005 of Subtitle C of 

RCRA requires treatment, storage or 

disposal facilities (TSDFs) to obtain a 

permit. To obtain the permit, the TSDFs 

must submit an application describing 

the facility’s operation. There are two 

parts to the RCRA permit application— 

Part A and Part B. Part A defines the 

processes to be used for treatment, 

storage, and disposal of hazardous 

wastes; the design capacity of such 

processes; and the specific hazardous 

wastes to be handled at the facility. Part 

B requires detailed site specific 

information such as geologic, 

hydrologic, and engineering data. In the 

event that permit modifications are 

proposed by the applicant or EPA, 

modifications must conform to the 

requirements under Sections 3004 and 

3005. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: 

Business or other for-profit; as well as 

State, Local, or Tribal governments. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Mandatory (RCRA 3005). 

Estimated number of respondents: 67. 

Frequency of response: On occasion. 

Total estimated burden: 23,669 hours 

per year. Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.03(b). 

Total estimated cost: $3,996,222 (per 

year), includes $2,791,804 annualized 

capital or operation & maintenance 

costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is 

decrease of 9,591 hours in the total 

estimated respondent burden compared 

with the ICR currently approved by 

OMB. This decrease is due to the 

smaller number of affected facilities.
