Abstract: Under the authority of the 

Resource Conservation and Recovery 

Act of 1976 (RCRA), as amended, 

Congress directed the U.S. 

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) 

to implement a comprehensive program 

for the safe management of hazardous 

waste. In addition, Congress wrote that 

‘‘[a]ny person may petition the 

Administrator for the promulgation, 

amendment or repeal of any regulation’’ 

under RCRA (section 7004(a)). 

40 CFR parts 260 and 261 contain 

provisions that allow regulated entities 

to apply for petitions, variances, 

exclusions, and exemptions from 

various RCRA requirements. 

The following are some examples of 

information required from petitioners 

under 40 CFR part 260. Under 40 CFR 

260.20(b), all rulemaking petitioners 

must submit basic information with 

their demonstrations, including name, 

address, and statement of interest in the 

proposed action. Under § 260.21, all 

petitioners for equivalent testing or 

analytical methods must include 

specific information in their petitions 

and demonstrate to the satisfaction of 

the Administrator that the proposed 

method is equal to, or superior to, the 

corresponding method in terms of its 

sensitivity, accuracy, and 

reproducibility. Under § 260.22, 

petitions to amend part 261 to exclude 

a waste produced at a particular facility 

(more simply, to delist a waste) must 

meet extensive informational 

requirements. When a petition is 

submitted, the Agency reviews 

materials, deliberates, publishes its 

tentative decision in the Federal 

Register, and requests public comment. 

EPA also may hold informal public 

hearings (if requested by an interested 

person or at the discretion of the 

Administrator) to hear oral comments 

on its tentative decision. After 

evaluating all comments, EPA publishes 

its final decision in the Federal 

Register. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: 

Regulated businesses/industries. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Mandatory (RCRA 7004(a)). 

Estimated number of respondents: 

26,041 (total). 

Frequency of response: On occasion. 

Total estimated burden: 484,789 

hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 

CFR 1320.03(b). 

Total estimated cost: $78,895,502 (per 

year), includes $51,648,460 annualized 

capital or operation & maintenance 

costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is an 

increase of 346,943 hours in the total 

estimated respondent burden compared 

with the ICR currently approved by 

OMB. This increase is due to the 

consolidation of ICRs 2127.03, 2455.01, 

and 2421.04 into this ICR 1189.26. The 

base ICR had a decrease of 8,192 hours, 

which is due to estimates gathered from 

the regulated community. This increase 

is also due to combining the burden

Abstract: Title V of the Clean Air Act 

(Act) requires the EPA to operate a 

federal operating permits program in 

areas not subject to an approved state 

program. The EPA regulations setting 

forth the requirements for the federal 

(EPA) operating permit program are at 

40 CFR part 71. The part 71 program is 

designed to be implemented primarily 

by the EPA in all areas where state and 

local agencies do not have jurisdiction, 

such as Indian country and offshore, 

beyond states’ seaward boundaries. The 

EPA may also delegate authority to 

implement the part 71 program on its 

behalf to a state, local or tribal agency, 

if the agency requests delegation and 

makes certain showings regarding its 

authority and ability to implement the 

program. One such delegate agency for 

the part 71 program exists at present. 

In order to receive an operating 

permit for a major or other source 

subject to the permitting program, the 

applicant must conduct the necessary 

research, perform the appropriate 

analyses, and prepare the permit 

application with documentation to 

demonstrate that its facility meets all 

applicable statutory and regulatory 

requirements. Specific activities and 

requirements are listed and described in 

the Supporting Statement for the part 71 

ICR. 

Under part 71, the permitting 

authority (the EPA or a delegate agency) 

reviews permit applications, provides 

for public review of proposed permits, 

issues permits based on consideration of 

all technical factors and public input, 

and reviews information submittals 

required of sources during the term of 

the permit. Under part 71, the EPA 

reviews certain actions and performs 

oversight of any delegate agency, 

consistent with the terms of a delegation 

agreement. Consequently, information 

prepared and submitted by sources is 

essential for sources to receive permits, 

and for federal and tribal permitting 

agencies to adequately review the 

permit applications and issue the 

permits, oversee implementation of the 

permits, and properly administer and 

manage the program. 

Information that is collected is 

handled according to EPA’s policies set 

forth in title 40, chapter 1, part 2, 

subpart B—Confidentiality of Business 

Information (see 40 CFR part 2). See also 

section 114(c) of the Act. 

Form Numbers: The forms are 5900– 

01, 5900–02, 5900–03, 5900–04, 5900– 

05, 5900–06, 5900–79, 5900–80, 5900– 

81, 5900–82, 5900–83, 5900–84, 5900– 

85 and 5900–86. 

Respondents/affected entities: 

Industrial plants (sources) and tribal 

permitting authorities. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Mandatory (see 40 CFR part 71). 

Estimated number of respondents: 99 

(total). 

Frequency of response: On occasion. 

Total estimated burden: 25,937 hours 

(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.03(b). 

Total estimated cost: $1,689,347 (per 

year). There are no annualized capital or 

operation & maintenance costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is a 

decrease of 11,692 hours in the total 

estimated respondent burden compared 

with the ICR currently approved by 

OMB. This decrease is due to updated 

estimates of the number of sources and 

permits subject to the part 71 program, 

rather than any new federal mandates. 

The changes in estimates are due to 

shrinkage from the transfer of 36 

permits from the part 71 to the part 70 

program and due to a previous 

overestimate of the number of sources 

that would get permits by the end of the 

previous ICR (which is the start of the 

current ICR).
