Abstract: The USEPA Office of 

Research and Development is 

investigating public values for options 

of salmon recovery in the Willamette 

Watershed in western Oregon. These 

values will be estimated via a 

willingness to pay mail survey 

instrument. Two anadromous fish 

species in the Willamette watershed are 

federally listed as threatened species; 

Spring Chinook, and Winter steelhead. 

The survey focuses on two attributes of 

recovery for these fish: The recovery 

status; and the time to recovery. A 

choice experiment framework is used 

with statistically designed tradeoff 

questions, where recovery options are 

posed as increases in a yearly household 

tax. The choice experiment is designed 

to allow independent isolation of the 

value of recovery and of time to 

recovery. A few additional questions to 

further understand the motivations for 

respondent choices, their river-related 

recreation behavior, and their attitudes 

towards wild origin versus hatchery 

origin fish are also included. Limited 

sociodemographic questions are 

included to gauge how well the sample 

respondents represent the target 

population. The survey will be fielded 

to Oregon residents. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: 

Individuals. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Voluntary. 

Estimated number of respondents: 

1,000 (total). 

Frequency of response: Once. 

Total estimated burden: 500 hours 

(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.03(b). 

Total estimated cost: $8,620 (per 

year), includes $0 annualized capital or 

operation & maintenance costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: This is a 

new collection.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On 

October 13, 2005, the final Cross-Media 

Electronic Reporting Rule (CROMERR) 

was published in the Federal Register 

(70 FR 59848) and codified as part 3 of 

title 40 of the CFR. CROMERR 

establishes electronic reporting as an 

acceptable regulatory alternative to 

paper reporting and establishes 

requirements to assure that electronic 

documents are as legally dependable as 

their paper counterparts. Subpart D of 

CROMERR requires that state, tribal or 

local government agencies that receive, 

or wish to begin receiving, electronic 

reports under their EPA-authorized 

programs must apply to EPA for a 

revision or modification of those 

programs and obtain EPA approval. 

Subpart D provides standards for such 

approvals based on consideration of the 

electronic document receiving systems 

that the state, tribe, or local government 

will use to implement the electronic 

reporting. Additionally, § 3.1000(b) 

through (e) of 40 CFR part 3, subpart D 

provides special procedures for program 

revisions and modifications to allow 

electronic reporting, to be used at the 

option of the state, tribe or local 

government in place of procedures 

available under existing programspecific authorization regulations. An 

application submitted under the subpart 

D procedures must show that the state, 

tribe or local government has sufficient 

legal authority to implement the 

electronic reporting components of the 

programs covered by the application 

and will use electronic document 

receiving systems that meet the 

applicable subpart D requirements. 

On June 13, 2014, the Indiana 

Department of Environmental 

Management (IDEM) submitted an 

application titled ‘‘Indiana Electronic 

Sample Entry Verify (eSE) System’’ for 

revision of its EPA-authorized Part 142 

program under title 40 CFR. EPA 

reviewed IDEM’s request to revise its 

EPA-authorized program and, based on 

this review, EPA determined that the 

application met the standards for 

approval of authorized program revision 

set out in 40 CFR part 3, subpart D. In 

accordance with 40 CFR 3.1000(d), this 

notice of EPA’s decision to approve 

Indiana’s request to revise its Part 142— 

National Primary Drinking Water 

Regulations Implementation program to 

allow electronic reporting under 40 CFR 

part 141 is being published in the 

Federal Register. IDEM was notified of 

EPA’s determination to approve its 

application with respect to the 

authorized program listed above.
