Abstract: ENERGY STAR is a voluntary program developed in collaboration with industry to create a self-sustaining market for energy efficient products. The center piece of the program is the ENERGY STAR label, a registered certification label that helps consumers identify products that save energy, save money, and help protect the environment without sacrificing quality or performance. In order to protect the integrity of the label and enhance its effectiveness in the marketplace, EPA must ensure that products carrying the label meet appropriate program requirements.

Program participants submit signed Partnership Agreements indicating that they will adhere to logo-use guidelines and program requirements. Retail partners commit to selling, marketing and promoting ENERGY STAR certified products. Product brand owner partners, who are usually the manufacturer of the products, commit to having participating products certified to meet specified energy performance criteria based on a standard test method and EPA’s third party certification requirements. These requirements for ENERGY STAR product certification also include provisions for verifying the performance of certified products through verification testing.

Now, product information is recorded by Certification Bodies and shared with EPA using XML-based web services that validate and save the information in EPA’s database. With this new process of obtaining certified product data, certified model data is automatically updated daily on the ENERGY STAR Web site. To ensure continued product performance after initial certification, EPA requires Certification Bodies to conduct post-market verification testing of a sampling of ENERGY STAR certified products. Certification Bodies are required to share information with EPA on products subjected to this postmarket testing twice a year and to immediately report any certified products that no longer meet the program requirements. This process allows EPA to monitor the ongoing performance of products and take necessary steps to maintain consumer confidence in the ENERGY STAR label and protect the investment of partners.

Form Numbers: 5900–252, 5900–251, 5900–33, 5900–253, 5900–168, 5900– 206, 5900–207, 5900–28, 5900–208, 5900–210, 5900–228, 5900–234, 5900– 229, 5900–235, 5900–47, 5900–349, 5900–350, 5900–351, 5900–348, 5900– 35, 5900–36, 5900–37, 5900–38, 5900– 39, 5900–41, 5900–42, 5900–43, 5900– 44, 5900–48, 5900–49, 5900–50, 5900– 51, 5900–53, 5900–54, 5900–55, 5900– 56, 5900–57, 5900–58, 5900–230, 5900– 224, 5900–227, 5900–166, 5900–165, 5900–164, 5900–226, 5900–163, 5900– 34, 5900–216, 5900–217, 5900–218,
5900–388.

Respondents/affected entities: Respondents for this information collection request include Partners in ENERGY STAR.

Respondent’s obligation to respond: Voluntary.

Estimated number of respondents: 2,080.

Frequency of response: Initially/onetime and annually.

Total estimated burden: 41,209 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b).

Total estimated cost: $3,118,166 (per year), includes $17,285 annualized capital or operation & maintenance

costs.

Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease of 24,129 hours in the total estimated burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB. Although participation in the ENERGY STAR program has steadily increased, the automated process of sharing information between Certification Bodies and the Agency has reduced the overall burden for Partners.

Abstract: The Office of Enforcement and Compliance Assurance (OECA) is responsible for administrative, civil and criminal enforcement of the environmental laws that EPA administers. EPA’s criminal enforcement and civil enforcement programs are dependent on tips and complaints from concerned citizens and members of the regulated community. The OECA Tips & Complaints Web page provides a convenient means by which these individuals can voluntarily submit tips and complaints regarding suspected violations of environmental law. Tips or complaints received are used by civil and/or criminal enforcement personnel at EPA to determine whether an investigation is warranted into the suspected or alleged misconduct. In some cases, EPA may decide to refer tips or complaints for investigation to other federal agencies or to State or local authorities within whose jurisdiction the matter may appropriately fall. The OECA Tips and Complaints Web page does not replace or otherwise supplant other means of providing tips or complaints to EPA; it merely provides a convenient means by which to supply these tips or complaints. As with complaints provided by phone, fax, or electronic mail, we expect that tippers or complainants are already in the possession of information that leads them to suspect a violation of environmental law when they contact EPA to report the matter. Accordingly, EPA believes that the burden associated with the reporting is merely that arising from the need to read the instructions and type or select information into the appropriate fields.

Form Numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Anyone wishing to file a tip or complaint.

Respondent’s obligation to respond: Voluntary. Estimated number of respondents: 10,286 (total).

Frequency of response: Occasionally. Total estimated burden: 5,143 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b).

Total estimated cost: $102,242 (per year), includes $0 annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.

Changes in the Estimates: There is an increase of 542 hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB. This increase reflects that tips and complaints are being filed at a higher rate, which is a strong indication of the success of this program.
