Title: State Water Quality Program 

Management Resource Analysis (New). 

ICR Numbers: EPA ICR No. 2433.01, 

OMB Control No. 2040—NEW. 

ICR Status: This ICR is for a new 

information collection activity. 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: EPA, in partnership with 

states, is conducting the State Water 

Quality Program Management Resource 

Analysis to enumerate current and 

future expenditures and resources for 

the administration and management of 

state water quality programs, and to 

quantify the resource needs for the 

administration and management of state 

water quality programs to implement 

the Clean Water Act (CWA). This effort 

builds on an expenditure and resource 

needs data collection effort conducted 

by EPA in collaboration with the states 

in 1998 and 2000. 

EPA requires this information to 

comprehend resource expenditures and 

needs for the administration and 

management of the water quality 

programs under 33 U.S.C. 125 et seq. 

This effort, supported by EPA and the 

states, is necessary to develop strategies 

for better managing state water quality 

programs that implement the CWA, thus 

ensuring the long-term sustainability, 

efficiency, and effectiveness of these 

programs. This effort also helps states 

and EPA to effectively target resources 

to meet EPA’s FY 2011–2015 strategic 

goals of protecting the nation’s waters 

and enforcing environmental laws. 

The data collection will facilitate 

creation of a detailed activity-based 

workload model to serve as a long-term 

budgeting, program management, and 

progress tracking tool for the states and 

EPA to use in the future. This is a onetime collection effort by the Office of 

Wastewater Management and responses 

to this ICR are voluntary. 

This information will be collected by 

EPA and made available to the states 

and to the public in accordance with the 

requirements of the Freedom of 

Information Act. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 63 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: State 

water quality agencies. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

20. 

Frequency of Response: Once, 

Annually. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

1,252. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: 

$49,740, which includes annual labor 

costs only, since no capital or operation 

and maintenance costs are associated 

with this ICR. 

Changes in the Estimates: This is a 

new collection, thus there is no 

currently approved ICR. 

Dated: January 4, 2012.
