gather sufficient information to 

determine whether the existing human 

health risk assessment needs to be 

revised before its use in a final Record 

of Decision. Anglers will be asked to 

answer about a dozen questions 

regarding their fishing habits. 

Participation is voluntary and 

confidential. Demographic data will be 

collected; however, no personal 

identification information will be 

collected. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 15 minutes 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. 

The ICR provides a detailed 

explanation of the Agency’s estimate, 

which is only briefly summarized here: 

Estimated total number of potential 

respondents: 2396. 

Frequency of response: One time. 

Estimated total average number of 

responses for each respondent: One. 

Estimated total annual burden hours: 

119 hours. 

Estimated total annual costs: 

$104,939.00. This includes an estimated 

burden cost of $0 and an estimated cost 

of $0 for capital investment or 

maintenance and operational costs. 

What is the Next Step in the Process for 

This ICR? 

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 pursuant to 5 CFR 

1320.12. At that time, EPA will issue 

another Federal Register notice 

pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.5(a)(1)(iv) to 

announce the submission of the ICR to 

OMB and the opportunity to submit 

additional comments to OMB. If you 

have any questions about this ICR or the 

approval process, please contact the

What information is EPA particularly 

interested in? 

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

the PRA, EPA specifically solicits 

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. In 

particular, EPA is requesting comments 

from very small businesses (those that 

employ less than 25) on examples of 

specific additional efforts that EPA 

could make to reduce the paperwork 

burden for very small businesses 

affected by this collection. 

What should I consider when I prepare 

my comments for EPA? 

You may find the following 

suggestions helpful for preparing your 

comments: 

1. Explain your views as clearly as 

possible and provide specific examples. 

2. Describe any assumptions that you 

used. 

3. Provide copies of any technical 

information and/or data you used that 

support your views. 

4. If you estimate potential burden or 

costs, explain how you arrived at the 

estimate that you provide. 

5. Offer alternative ways to improve 

the collection activity. 

6. Make sure to submit your 

comments by the deadline identified 

under DATES. 

7. To ensure proper receipt by EPA, 

be sure to identify the docket ID number 

assigned to this action in the subject 

line on the first page of your response. 

You may also provide the name, date, 

and Federal Register citation. 

What information collection activity or 

ICR does this apply to? 

Affected entities: Entities potentially 

affected by this action are those 

facilities that own and operate 

underground storage tanks (USTs) and 

those states that implement the UST 

programs. 

Title: ‘‘Underground Storage Tanks: 

Technical and Financial Requirements, 

and State Program Approval Procedures 

(Renewal).’’ 

ICR numbers: ICR Number 1360.12, 

OMB Control Number 2050–0068. 

ICR status: This ICR is currently 

scheduled to expire on March 31, 2011. 

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: Subtitle I of the Resource 

Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), 

as amended, requires that EPA develop 

standards for UST systems, as may be 

necessary, to protect human health and 

the environment, and procedures for 

approving state programs in lieu of the 

federal program. EPA promulgated 

technical and financial requirements for 

owners and operators of USTs at 40 CFR 

part 280, and state program approval 

procedures at 40 CFR part 281. This ICR 

is a comprehensive presentation of all 

information collection requirements 

contained at 40 CFR parts 280 and 281. 

The data collected for new and 

existing UST system operations and 

financial requirements are used by 

owners and operators and/or EPA or the 

implementing agency to monitor results 

of testing, inspections, and operation of 

UST systems, as well as to demonstrate 

compliance with regulations. EPA 

believes strongly that if the minimum 

requirements specified under the 

regulations are not met, neither the 

facilities nor EPA can ensure that UST 

systems are being managed in a manner 

protective of human health and the 

environment. 

EPA uses state program applications 

to determine whether to approve a state 

program. Before granting approval, EPA 

must determine that programs will be 

no less stringent than the federal 

program and contain adequate 

enforcement mechanisms. 

The EPA would like to solicit 

comments 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. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 25 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. 

The ICR provides a detailed 

explanation of the Agency’s estimate, 

which is only briefly summarized here: 

Respondents/Affected Entities: UST 

facilities and states. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

237,589. 

Frequency of Response: once, on 

occasion. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

5,969,217. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: 

$743,453,178 ($453,047,585 in labor 

costs; $95,975,266 in annualized 

capital/startup costs; and $194,430,327 

in operation and maintenance costs).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background: Pursuant to the Federal 

Advisory Committee Act (FACA), 5 

U.S.C., App. 2, notice is hereby given 

that the Advisory Council on Clean Air 

Compliance Analysis (Council) will 

hold a public meeting to review draft 

EPA documents prepared for the Second 

Section 812 Prospective Benefit-Cost 

Analysis of the Clean Air Act. The 

Council was established in 1991 

pursuant to the Clean Air Act (CAA) 

Amendments of 1990 (see 42 U.S.C. 

7612) to provide advice, information 

and recommendations on technical and 

economic aspects of analyses and 

reports EPA prepares on the impacts of 

the CAA on the public health, economy, 

and environment of the United States. 

The Council is a Federal Advisory 

Committee chartered under FACA. The 

Council its subcommittees (Air Quality 

Modeling Subcommittee, Health Effects 

Subcommittee, and Ecological Effects 

Subcommittee) comply with the 

provisions of FACA and all appropriate 

SAB Staff Office procedural policies. 

Pursuant to Section 812 of the 1990 

Clean Air Act Amendments (CAAA), 

EPA conducts periodic studies to assess 

benefits and costs of the EPA’s 

regulatory actions under the Clean Air 

Act. The Council has provided advice 

on an EPA retrospective study 

published in 1997 and an EPA 

prospective study completed in 1999. 

EPA initiated a second prospective 

study to evaluate the benefits and costs 

of EPA Clean Air programs for years 

1990—2020. The Council has previously 

provided advice on the technical 

analyses prepared for this study. EPA’s 

Office of Air and Radiation (OAR) has 

now completed the analytical work for 

the second prospective study, and has 

requested the Council’s review of the 

draft synthesis report. 

Previous Reviews: The Council and its 

subcommittees have previously 

reviewed EPA documents prepared in 

support of the Office of Air and 

Radiation’s Second Section 812 

Prospective Study, and the advisory 

reports from these activities are 

available on the Council Web site at 

(http://www.epa.gov/

advisorycouncilcaa). As announced 

previously (Federal Register, Vol 75, 

Number 73, Pages 19969–19971), the 

Council met on May 4–5, 2010 to review 

EPA reports on uncertainty and 

economic analyses of the costs and 

benefits of the CAAA, including 

valuation of health and welfare benefits, 

estimates of direct costs, and results 

from the EMPAX–CGE economy-wide 

modeling. The Council also reviewed 

chapters from the preliminary draft 

integrated report, and offered 

suggestions for improvement, 

summarized in a Council report, 

Advisory on a Preliminary Draft of the 

Second Section 812 Prospective Study 

of the Benefits and Costs of the Clean 

Air Act (April 2010). The purpose of the 

September 2–3, 2010 meeting is for the 

Council to review the revised version of 

the draft integrated report. Background 

information on this advisory activity is 

available on the Council Web site at
