Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 125 / Tuesday, June 30, 2015 / Notices 37255 

Total estimated burden: 80,000 hours 

(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.3(b). 

Total estimated cost: $8,020,000 (per 

year), includes no annualized capital or 

operation & maintenance costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is an 

adjustment decrease in the total 

estimated respondent labor burden as 

currently identified in the OMB 

Inventory of Approved Burdens. This 

decrease is not due to any program 

changes. Rather, it was due to a 

discrepancy identified in the previous 

renewal, in which the number of byproduct plants conducting daily leak 

inspections and bypass/bleeder stack/

flare system inspections was 

overestimated. EPA has revised the 

estimates in this ICR to reflect the 

appropriate number of by-product 

plants. The net result of this adjustment 

was a decrease in respondent burden 

hours. There is also a small adjustment 

increase in the number of responses due 

to a correction. The previous ICR did 

not account for the notification of 

reconstruction, notification of battery 

closure, and malfunction report in 

calculating the number of responses.

Requirements for Great Lake 

Steamships (Renewal) 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency is planning to submit an 

information collection request (ICR), 

‘‘Fuel Use Requirements for Great Lakes 

Steamships’’ (EPA ICR No. 2458.02, 

OMB Control No. 2060–0679) to the 

Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) for review and approval in 

accordance with the Paperwork 

Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). 

Before doing so, EPA is soliciting public 

comments on specific aspects of the 

proposed information collection as 

described below. This is a proposed 

extension of the ICR, which is currently 

approved through August 31, 2015. 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. 

DATES: Comments must be submitted on 

or before August 31, 2015. 

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, 

referencing the Docket ID Number listed 

above online using www.regulations.gov 

(our preferred method) or by mail to: 

EPA Docket Center, Environmental 

Protection Agency, Mail Code 28221T, 

1200 Pennsylvania Ave. NW., 

Washington, DC 20460. 

EPA’s policy is that all comments 

received will be included in the public

information whose disclosure is 

restricted by statute.

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

the PRA, EPA is soliciting 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. 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. At that time, EPA 

will issue another Federal Register 

notice to announce the submission of 

the ICR to OMB and the opportunity to 

submit additional comments to OMB. 

Abstract: The U.S. Environmental 

Protection Agency (EPA) adopted 

requirements for marine vessels 

operating in and around U.S. territorial 

waters to use reduced-sulfur diesel fuel. 

This requirement does not apply for 

steamships, but it would apply for 

steamships that are converted to run on 

diesel engines. A regulatory provision 

allows vessel owners to qualify for a 

waiver from the fuel-use requirements 

for a defined period for such converted 

vessels. EPA uses the data to oversee 

compliance with regulatory 

requirements, including communicating 

with affected companies and answering 

questions from the public or other 

industry participants regarding the 

waiver in question. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Estimated number of respondents: 2 

(total). 

Frequency of response: Once 

Currently approved estimated burden: 

14 hours (per year). Burden is defined 

at 5 CFR 1320.03(b) 

Currently approved estimated cost: 

$988 (per year), includes no annualized 

capital or operation & maintenance 

costs. 

Changes in Estimates: The final ICR 

will address all changes in the estimates 

over the past three years.
