Records Governing Off-the-Record 

Communications; Public Notice 

July 31, 2009. 

This constitutes notice, in accordance 

with 18 CFR 385.2201(b), of the receipt 

of prohibited and exempt off-the-record 

communications. 

Order No. 607 (64 FR 51222, 

September 22, 1999) requires 

Commission decisional employees, who 

make or receive a prohibited or exempt 

off-the-record communication relevant 

to the merits of a contested proceeding, 

to deliver to the Secretary of the 

Commission a copy of the 

communication, if written, or a 

summary of the substance of any oral 

communication. 

Prohibited communications are 

included in a public, non-decisional file 

associated with, but not a part of, the 

decisional record of the proceeding. 

Unless the Commission determines that 

the prohibited communication and any 

responses thereto should become a part 

of the decisional record, the prohibited 

off-the-record communication will not 

be considered by the Commission in 

reaching its decision. Parties to a 

proceeding may seek the opportunity to 

respond to any facts or contentions 

made in a prohibited off-the-record 

communication, and may request that 

the Commission place the prohibited 

communication and responses thereto 

in the decisional record. The 

Commission will grant such a request 

only when it determines that fairness so 

requires. Any person identified below as 

having made a prohibited off-the-record 

communication shall serve the 

document on all parties listed on the 

official service list for the applicable 

proceeding in accordance with Rule 

2010, 18 CFR 385.2010. 

Exempt off-the-record 

communications are included in the 

decisional record of the proceeding, 

unless the communication was with a 

cooperating agency as described by 40 

CFR 1501.6, made under 18 CFR 

385.2201(e)(1)(v). 

The following is a list of off-therecord communications recently 

received by the Secretary of the

Title: Trade Secret Claims for 

Emergency Planning and Community 

Right-to-Know Act (Renewal). 

ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 1428.08, 

OMB Control No. 2050–0078. 

ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to 

expire on August 31, 2009. 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: This information collection 

request pertains to trade secrecy claims 

submitted under section 322 of the 

Emergency Planning and Community 

Right-to-Know Act of 1986 (EPCRA), 

also known as Title III of SARA, the 

Superfund Amendments and 

Reauthorization Act. Title III contains 

provisions requiring facilities to report 

to State and local authorities, and EPA, 

the presence, use and release of 

extremely hazardous substances 

(described in sections 302 and 304) and 

hazardous and toxic chemicals 

(described in sections 311, 312 and 313 

respectively). Section 322 of Title III 

allows a facility to withhold the specific 

chemical identity from these Title III 

reports if the facility asserts a claim of 

trade secrecy for that chemical identity. 

The provision establishes the 

requirements and procedures that 

facilities must follow to request trade 

secrecy treatment of chemical identities, 

as well as the procedures for submitting 

public petitions to the Agency for 

review of the ‘‘sufficiency’’ of trade 

secrecy claims. EPA published the trade 

secrecy regulations on July 29, 1988 (58 

FR 28772), codified in 40 CFR part 350. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 9.5 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: 

Entities that submit trade secret claims, 

including the manufacturing sector, coal 

and metal mining, electric utilities, 

construction, dry cleaners, chemical and 

paper manufacturers. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

327. 

Frequency of Response: Annually. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

3,106 hours. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: 

$195,447, which includes no annualized 

capital or O&M costs.
