Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 207 / Tuesday, October 27, 2015 / Notices 65753 

process of submission has reduced the 

burden time for Partners and the Agency 

by taking advantage of the infrastructure 

in place for certifying products. With 

the new process of obtaining certified 

product data, certified model data is 

automatically updated daily on the 

ENERGY STAR Web site. To ensure that 

products are certified properly, the 

certification process also includes 

requirements for Certification Bodies to 

report to EPA products that were 

reviewed, but not eligible for 

certification. To ensure continued 

product performance after initial 

certification, EPA requires Certification 

Bodies to conduct post-market 

verification testing of a sampling of 

ENERGY STAR certified products. 

Certification Bodies are required to 

share information with EPA on products 

subjected to this post-market testing 

twice a year and to immediately report 

any certified products that no longer 

meet the program requirements. This 

process allows EPA to monitor the 

ongoing performance of products and 

take necessary steps to maintain 

consumer confidence in the ENERGY 

STAR label and protect the investment 

of partners. 

In order to monitor progress and 

support the best allocation of resources, 

EPA also asks manufacturers to submit 

annual shipment data for their ENERGY 

STAR qualifying products. EPA is 

flexible as to the methods by which 

manufacturers may submit unit 

shipment data. For example, many 

manufacturers are given the option of 

arranging for shipment data to be sent 

to EPA via this third party to ensure 

confidentiality. In using any shipment 

data received directly from a partner, 

EPA only shares aggregate information 

from multiple partners so as to protect 

confidentiality. 

Finally, Partners that wish to receive 

recognition for their efforts in ENERGY 

STAR may submit an application for the 

Partner of the Year Award. 

Burden Statement: EPA will consult 

with Partners to re-evaluate the burden. 

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 estimated total cost for 

respondents is $3,908,125 and the 

hourly burden is approximately 59,407 

hours. This cost includes an estimated 

burden cost of $3,890,840 and an 

estimated cost of $17,285 for capital 

investment or maintenance and 

operational costs. The estimated total 

cost for the Agency is $566,573 and the 

hourly burden is approximately 14,044 

hours. This cost includes an estimated 

burden cost of $566,549.63 and an 

estimated cost of $23.37 for capital 

investment or maintenance and 

operational costs. A grand total of 

$4,474,698 and an hourly burden of 

approximately 73,451 hours are 

expected for all information collection 

activities under ENERGY STAR product 

labeling. 

Respondents/Affected Entities: 

Respondents for this information 

collection request include Partners in 

ENERGY STAR. Partners are product 

brand owners. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

2050. 

Frequency of Response: Initially/onetime and annually. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

73,451 hours. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: 

$4,474,698, that includes an estimated 

$17,308.37 in Operations and 

Maintenance Costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is an 

estimated decrease of approximately 

10,951 in the total burden hours, and a 

decrease of 5,931 in the total estimated 

respondent burden compared with the 

ICR currently approved by OMB. 

Although participation in the ENERGY 

STAR program has steadily increased, 

EPA believes the automated process of 

sharing information between 

Certification Bodies and the Agency has 

reduced the overall burden for both 

Partners and the Agency. EPA increased 

the estimated number of respondents for 

Partnership Agreements, Unit Shipment 

data, and Award applications based on 

updated program data. EPA also 

updated the hourly wage rates to reflect 

inflation and current baseline labor rates 

for each labor category. EPA is currently 

evaluating and updating these estimates 

as part of the ICR renewal process. EPA 

will discuss its updated estimates, as 

well as changes from the last approval, 

in the next Federal Register notice to be 

issued for this renewal.

dockets. 

Abstract: Owners and operators of 

affected facilities are required to comply 

with reporting and recordkeeping 

requirements for the General Provisions 

(40 CFR part 63, subpart A), as well as 

for the specific standard (40 CFR part 

63, subpart FFFFF). This includes 

submitting initial notification reports, 

performance tests, periodic reports and 

results, and maintaining 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. These reports are 

used by EPA to determine compliance 

with the standards. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: 

Integrated iron and steel plants. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Mandatory (40 CFR part 63, subpart 

FFFFF). 

Estimated number of respondents: 18 

(total). 

Frequency of response: Initially, 

occasionally, and semiannually. 

Total estimated burden: 18,500 hours 

(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.3(b). 

Total estimated cost: $1,930,000 (per 

year), which includes $67,000 in either 

annualized capital/startup and/or 

operation & maintenance costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: The 

increase in respondent labor burden 

from the most-recently approved ICR is 

due to an adjustment. In this ICR, we 

assume all existing respondents will 

take some time to re-familiarize with the 

regulatory requirement. This 

assumption results in a small increase 

in labor hours and costs. The 

respondent labor costs also increased 

due to use of more updated labor rates. 

The total estimated cost, including 

capital and O&M costs, have also been 

rounded to three significant figures. The 

rounding results in a small apparent 

decrease in the total O&M cost.

Meeting and previously listed in the 

Commission’s Notice of October 15, 

2015. These items have been adopted by 

the Commission. 

Item No. Bureau Subject 

3 ............... Wireless Telecommunications .................... TITLE: Expanding the Economic and Innovation Opportunities of Spectrum Through 

Incentive Auctions (GN Docket No. 12–268). 

SUMMARY: The Commission will consider a Report and Order addressing when and 

in what areas 600 MHz Band wireless licensees will be deemed to ‘‘commence operations’’ for the purposes of establishing when the secondary and unlicensed 

users must cease operations and vacate the 600 MHz Band in those areas. 

4 ............... Office of Engineering and Technology ....... TITLE: Expanding the Economic and Innovation Opportunities of Spectrum Through 

Incentive Auctions (GN Docket No. 12–268); Office of Engineering and Technology 

Releases and Seeks Comment on Updated OET–69 Software (ET Docket No. 13– 

26); and Office of Engineering and Technology Seeks to Supplement the Incentive 

Auction Proceeding Record Regarding Potential Interference Between Broadcast 

Television and Wireless Services (ET Docket No. 14–14). 

SUMMARY: The Commission will consider a Third Report & Order and First Order on 

Reconsideration that adopts rules to govern inter-service interference between 

broadcast television stations and wireless licensees in the 600 MHz Band following 

the incentive auction and sets out protection criteria for television stations and wireless operations in the band. 

5 ............... Media .......................................................... TITLE: Expanding the Economic and Innovation Opportunities of Spectrum Through 

Incentive Auctions (GN Docket No. 12–268) and Channel Sharing by Full Power 

and Class A Stations Outside the Broadcast Television Spectrum Incentive Auction
