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

the PRA, EPA is soliciting 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. 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. At that time, EPA 

will issue another Federal Register 

notice to announce the submission of 

the ICR to OMB and the opportunity to 

submit additional comments to OMB. 

Abstract: The USEPA Office of 

Research and Development is 

investigating public values for scenarios 

of change for perennial reaches of the 

effluent-dominated Santa Cruz River, 

Arizona. These values will be estimated 

via a willingness to pay mail survey 

instrument. There are two effluentdominated perennial reaches considered 

in the survey. A ‘‘South’’ reach starts at 

an outfall in Rio Rico, AZ, and flows 

northward through Tumaca ́cori National 

Historical Park. A ‘‘North’’ reach is fed 

by two outfalls in northwest Tucson, 

Arizona, flows northwest through 

Marana, AZ. For each of the South and 

North reaches, two different scenarios of 

change are considered. The first is a 

reduction in flow length, and associated 

decreases in cottonwood-willow 

riparian forest, a rare forest type in the 

region. The second is an increase in 

water quality to allow full contact 

recreation, such as submersion, at 

normal flow levels. The baseline flow 

length and forest acreages, as well as the 

acreages of forest that would be 

associated with reduced flow lengths, 

are derived from natural science 

research. For the survey, a choice 

experiment framework is used with 

statistically designed tradeoff questions. 

Options to maintain flow length and 

forest, or increase effluent water quality, 

are posed as increases in a yearly 

household tax. Each choice question 

allows a zero cost ‘‘opt out’’ option. The 

choice experiment is designed to allow 

isolation of the public value of each 

marginal change for each reach. A few 

additional questions to further 

understand respondent choice 

motivations, as well as their riverrelated recreation behavior, are also 

included. Several pages of background 

introduce the issue to respondents. A 

small number of sociodemographic 

questions are included to gauge how 

well the sample respondents represent 

the target population. Samples of the 

two major metropolitan areas in 

southern Arizona, Phoenix and Tucson, 

will receive the survey. The primary 

reason for the survey is public value 

research. The Santa Cruz River is a case 

study of a waterway highly impacted by 

human modifications. However it still 

represents potentially valuable 

ecological commodities such as rare 

riparian habitat and recreational 

opportunities for the regional 

population. The survey results may also 

be informative to local decision-makers 

considering Santa Cruz River 

management options. Water scarcity in 

the region raises periodic debates on the 

best uses of effluent. All survey 

responses will be kept confidential. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: The 

target respondents for this survey are 

representatives 18 yrs or older of 

households in the two most populated 

urban areas of Arizona, the Phoenix 

metro area, and the Tucson metro area. 

A sample of household representatives 

18 yrs or older in each metro area will 

be contacted by mail following multiple 

contact protocol in Dillman (2009). A 

response rate of 30% will be targeted. 

To increase response rates from the 

sample, several contacts will be used, 

including a prenotice to all recipients, a 

reminder postcard, and followup 

mailing as needed. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Voluntary. 

Estimated number of respondents: 

The target responses from the Phoenix 

and Tucson metro areas is 250 

households each, or 500 households 

total. 

Frequency of response: One-time 

response. 

Total estimated burden: For a typical 

respondent, a conservative estimate of 

their time to review and respond to 

survey questions is 30 minutes. 

Assuming the target of 500 people total 

respond to the survey, the burden is 250 

hours. 

Total estimated cost: The Bureau of 

Labor Statistics reports average wage 

rates for some metropolitan areas, with 

the most recent data being May 2011 

(Bureau of Labor Statistics, 2011). The 

average hourly wage for all occupations 

in the Phoenix metro area was $21.61, 

or an average cost per participant of 

$10.81. The average hourly wage for all 

occupations in the Tucson metro area 

was $20.55, or an average cost per 

participant of $10.28. Assuming 250 

participants in each metro area fill out 

the survey, the total estimated 

respondent labor cost is $5,270. This 

would be a one-time expenditure of 

their time. 

Changes in Estimates: This is the first 

notice, there is no change in estimates 

at this time.

Fiberglass Insulation Manufacturing 

Plants (Renewal). 

ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 

1160.12, OMB Control Number 2060– 

0114. 

ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to 

expire on June 30, 2013. Under OMB 

regulations, the Agency may continue to 

conduct or sponsor the collection of 

information while this submission is 

pending at OMB. 

Abstract: The affected entities are 

subject to the General Provisions of the 

NSPS/NESHAP at 40 CFR part 60, 

subpart A and part 63, subpart A, and 

any changes, or additions to the 

Provisions specified at 40 CFR part 60, 

subpart PPP and part 63, subpart NNN. 

Owners or operators of the affected 

facilities must submit an initial 

notification report, performance tests, 

and periodic reports and results. 

Owners or operators are also required to 

maintain records of the occurrence and 

duration of any startup, shutdown, or 

malfunction in the operation of an 

affected facility, or any period during 

which the monitoring system is 

inoperative. Reports are required 

annually at a minimum. 

Respondents/Affected Entities: 

Owners or operators of wool fiberglass 

manufacturing facilities. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 61 

Frequency of Response: Occasionally 

and semiannually 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

18,559 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: 

$2,285,560, which includes $1,797,060 

in labor costs, no capital/startup costs, 

and $488,500 in operation and 

maintenance (O&M) costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is no 

change in the labor hours in this ICR 

compared to the pervious ICR. This is 

due to two considerations: (1) The 

regulations have not changed over the 

past three years; and (2) the growth rate 

for the industry is very low, negative or 

non-existent, so there is no significant 

change in the overall burden. However, 

there is an adjustment increase in the 

total estimated labor costs. The change 

in cost estimates occurred because the 

labor rates have increased since the last 

ICR. This ICR used the most recent labor 

rates in calculating all burden costs. 

Additionally, the annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information has 

increased from 103 hours per response 

to 145 hours per response (41 hours per 

response for 40 CFR part 60, subpart 

PPP, and 249 hours per response for 40 

CFR part 63, subpart NNN). This is due 

to a correction in the total number of 

annual responses. The total number of 

annual responses decreased from 180 to 

128. To calculate the number of 

responses, the previous ICR assumed 

that all 29 sources subject to subpart 

NNN were required to submit Startup, 

Shutdown, and Malfunction (SSM) 

reports semiannually. This method was 

inconsistent with the burden 

calculations for Tables 1a and 1b, which 

assumed only 10% of all sources submit 

such reports. This ICR corrected the 

number of sources for submitting SSM 

reports, which results in a decrease in 

the number of responses for subpart 

NNN.
