Abstract: Section 3002 of RCRA 

requires hazardous waste generators to 

report, at least every 2 years, the 

quantity and nature of hazardous waste 

generated and managed each year. 

Section 3004 requires treatment, storage, 

and disposal facilities (TSDFs) to report 

any waste received. This is mandatory 

reporting. The information is collected 

via the Hazardous Waste Report (EPA 

Form 8700–13 A/B). This form is also 

known as the ‘‘Biennial Report’’ form. 

Section 3010 of RCRA requires any 

person who generates or transports 

regulated waste or who owns or 

operates a facility for the treatment, 

storage, or disposal of regulated waste to 

notify the EPA of their activities, 

including the location and general 

description of activities and the 

regulated wastes handled. The entity is 

then issued an EPA Identification 

number. Entities use the Notification 

Form (EPA Form 8700–12) to notify 

EPA of their hazardous waste activities. 

This form is also known as the 

‘‘Notification’’ form. 

Section 3005 of RCRA requires TSDFs 

to obtain a permit. To obtain the permit, 

the TSDF must submit an application 

describing the facility’s operation. The 

RCRA Hazardous Waste Part A Permit 

Application form (EPA Form 8700–23) 

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. This form is also known as the 

‘‘Part A’’ form. 

Form Numbers: 8700–12, 8700–13A/

B, and 8700–23. 

Respondents/affected entities: 

Business or other for-profit, State, Local, 

or Tribal governments. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Mandatory (RCRA Sections 3002, 3304, 

3005, 3010). 

Estimated number of respondents: 

57,879. 

Frequency of response: Biennially. 

Total estimated burden: 619,489 

hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 

CFR 1320.03(b). 

Total estimated cost: $25,530,368 (per 

year), includes $285,329 annualized 

capital or operation & maintenance 

costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is 

increase of 186,586 hours in the total 

estimated respondent burden compared 

with the ICR currently approved by 

OMB. This increase is due to an 

increase in the number of projected 

respondents to the 2015 Hazardous 

Waste Report vs the 2013 Hazardous 

Waste Report.
