52488 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 196 / Tuesday, October 13, 2009 / Notices 

numbers in certain EPA regulations is 

consolidated in 40 CFR Part 9. 

Abstract: EPA tips and complaints 

Webform is intended to provide an easy 

and convenient means by which 

members of the public can supply 

information to EPA regarding suspected 

violations of environmental law. The 

decision to provide a tip or complaint 

is entirely voluntary and use of the 

Webform when supplying a tip or 

complaint is also entirely voluntary. 

Those persons that provide tips need 

not supply contact information or other 

personal identifiers. Those who do 

supply such information, however, 

should know that this information may 

be shared by EPA with appropriate 

administrative, law enforcement, and 

judicial entities engaged in investigating 

or adjudicating the tip or complaint. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average one-half hour per 

response. Burden means the total time, 

effort, or financial resources expended 

by persons to generate, maintain, retain, 

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 of 

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. 

It is expected that a total of 630 

people will complete the tips and 

complaints form each month, for a total 

of 7,560 people per year. Given that 

people typically arrive at the form with 

all of the information needed to 

complete the form, EPA expects that the 

form will take no more than 30 minutes 

to complete. Accordingly, EPA expects 

that the total annual burden hours will 

be approximately 3,780. EPA does not 

anticipate any capital or start-up costs 

associated with completion of this form. 

EPA also does not anticipate that, in 

the usual case, burden hours associated 

with the tips and complaint form will 

translate into actual labor costs; EPA 

expects relatively few tips or complaints 

to be submitted as part of an employee’s 

official duties. For this reason, EPA 

believes that the relevant ‘‘labor costs’’ 

associated with the form are best 

calculated as the wage opportunity cost 

to people of the form’s estimated burden 

hours. The wage opportunity cost of the 

burden hours associated with this form 

can be estimated by multiplying the 

total number of burden hours by the 

average national hourly wage reported 

by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). 

BLS reports the average hourly wage in 

July 2007 to have been $19.88 per hour; 

accordingly, the total wage opportunity 

cost associated with the tips and 

complaints form would be 

approximately $75,146 per annum. 

Are There Changes in the Estimates 

From the Last Approval? 

There is an increase of 1980 hours in 

the total estimated respondent burden 

compared with that identified in the ICR 

currently approved by OMB. This 

increase reflects the fact that tips and 

complaints are being filed at a higher 

rate than originally anticipated, a strong 

indication of the success of this 

program. There has been no change in 

the information being reported or the 

estimated burden per respondent. 

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)(l)(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
