expire on 7/31/11. Before submitting the 

ICR to OMB for review and approval, 

EPA is soliciting comments on specific 

aspects of the proposed information 

collection as described below.

DC Public Reading Room is open from 

8 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 Superfund Docket is 

202–566–1677. 

Use http://www.regulations.gov to

information, submit or view public 

comments, access the index listing of 

the contents of the docket, and to access 

those documents in the public docket 

that are available electronically. Once in 

the system, select ‘‘search,’’ then key in 

the docket ID number identified in this 

document. 

What information is EPA particularly 

interested in? 

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

the PRA, EPA specifically solicits 

comments and information to enable it 

to: 

(i) 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; 

(ii) evaluate the accuracy of the 

Agency’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; 

(iii) enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and 

(iv) 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.

2. Describe any assumptions that you 

used. 

3. Provide copies of any technical

the collection activity. 

6. Make sure to submit your

under DATES. 

7. To ensure proper receipt by EPA,

line on the first page of your response. 

You may also provide the name, date, 

and Federal Register citation. 

What information collection activity or 

ICR does this apply to? 

Docket ID No. EPA–HQ–SFUND– 

2007–0840. 

Affected entities: Entities potentially 

affected by this action are Local 

Governments that apply for 

reimbursement under this program. 

Title: Local Governments 

Reimbursement Application. 

ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 1425.05, 

OMB Control No. 2050–0077. 

ICR status: This ICR is currently 

scheduled to expire on 7/31/11. 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: The Agency requires 

applicants for reimbursement under this 

program authorized under Section 123 

of CERCLA to submit an application 

that demonstrates consistency with 

program eligibility requirements. This is 

necessary to ensure proper use of the 

Superfund. EPA reviews the 

information to ensure compliance with 

all statutory and program requirements. 

The applicants are local governments 

who have incurred expenses, above and 

beyond their budgets, for hazardous 

substance response. Submission of this 

information is voluntary and to the 

applicant’s benefit. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 9 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 

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: 30. 

Frequency of response: voluntary, on 

occasion. 

Estimated total average number of 

responses for each respondent: 1. 

Estimated total annual burden hours: 

270 hours. 

Estimated total annual costs: $7,493. 

This includes an estimated burden cost 

of $18.50/hour and there are no capital 

investment or maintenance and 

operational costs. 

Are there changes in the estimates from 

the last approval? 

At this time, the Agency anticipates 

that because the number of respondents 

has decreased, the estimated annual 

burden has also decreased. 

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
