# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Previously, EPA submitted the ICR for this rulemaking to OMB for review and approval according to the procedures prescribed in 5 CFR 1320.12. On August 2, 2007 (72 FR 42409), EPA sought comments on this ICR pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.8(d). EPA received no comments during the comment period. Any additional comments on this ICR renewal should be submitted to EPA and OMB within 30 days of this notice.

                    EPA has established a public docket for this ICR under Docket ID No. EPA-HQ-OAR-2007-0563, which is available for online viewing at                     *http://www.regulations.gov,*                     or in person viewing at the Air and Radiation Docket in the EPA Docket Center (EPA/DC), EPA West, Room 3334, 1301 Constitution Ave., NW., Washington, DC.

*Title:*                     National Volatile Organic Compound Emission Standards for Consumer Products (Renewal).                

*ICR numbers:*                     EPA ICR No. 1764.04, OMB Control No. 2060-0348.                

*ICR Status:*                     This ICR is scheduled to expire on February 28, 2011. Under OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to conduct or sponsor the collection of information while this submission is pending at OMB. An Agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information, unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA's regulations in title 40 of the CFR, after appearing in the                     **Federal Register**                     when approved, are listed in 40 CFR part 9, are displayed either by publication in the                     **Federal Register**                     or by other appropriate means, such as on the related collection instrument or form, if applicable. The display of OMB control numbers in certain EPA regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR part 9.                

*Abstract:*                     The information collection includes initial reports and periodic recordkeeping necessary for EPA to ensure compliance with Federal standards for volatile organic compounds in consumer products. Respondents are manufacturers, distributors, and importers of consumer products. Responses to the collection are mandatory under 40 CFR part 59, subpart C, National Volatile Organic Compound Emission Standards for Consumer Products. All information submitted to the EPA for which a claim of confidentiality is made will be safeguarded according to the Agency policies set forth in 40 CFR part 2, subpart B, Confidentiality of Business Information.                

*Burden Statement:*                     The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 40 hours per response. 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.                

*Respondents/Affected Entities:*                     Manufacturers and importers of consumer products.                

*Estimated Number of Respondents:*                     732.                

*Frequency of Response:*                     On occasion.                

*Estimated Total Annual Hours Burden:*                     29,613 hours.                

*Estimated Total Annual Costs:*                     $1,187,537. This includes labor costs of $1,187,537 and no capital or O&M costs.                

*Changes in Estimates:*                     There is no change in the total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens. However, the estimated total annual costs are increased by $91,828 due to increased costs of employment compensation since the previous approval.
