*Abstract:*                     EPA regulates the burning of hazardous waste in boilers, incinerators, and industrial furnaces (BIFs) under 40 CFR parts 63, 264, 265, 266 and 270. This ICR describes the paperwork requirements that apply to the owners and operators of BIFs. This includes the general facility requirements at 40 CFR parts 264 and 265, subparts B thru H; the requirements applicable to BIF units at 40 CFR part 266; and the RCRA Part B permit application and modification requirements at 40 CFR part 270.                

*Form Numbers:*                     None.                

*Respondents/affected entities:*                     Business or other for-profit.                

*Respondent's obligation to respond:*                     Mandatory (per 40 CFR 264, 265, and 270).                

*Estimated number of respondents:*                     36 (total).                

*Frequency of response:*                     On occasion.                

*Total estimated burden:*                     39,758 hours per year. Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b).                

*Total estimated cost:*                     $5,499,098 (per year), which includes $0 in annualized capital/startup, and $2,823,120 in annualized operation & maintenance costs.                

*Changes in the Estimates:*                     There is a decrease of 231,600 hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB. This decrease is due to a decrease in the size of the universe, from 105 facilities to 36 facilities. This decrease is due partly to closures of boilers in both permitted and interim status facilities, but is mostly due to a clean-up of the data, because previously there had been double-counting of facilities as being both permitted and interim status. The reason for the double-counting was that one facility could have both permitted boilers and non-permitted boilers (                    *i.e.*, in interim status). Currently, however, there are no boilers in interim status; they are either permitted or they have been closed.
