Title: NESHAP for Area Sources: 

Asphalt Processing and Asphalt Roofing 

Manufacturing (Renewal). 

ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 

2352.03, OMB Control Number 2060– 

0634. 

ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to 

expire on February 28, 2013. Under 

OMB regulations, the Agency may 

continue to either conduct or sponsor 

the collection of information while this 

submission is pending at OMB. 

Abstract: The affected entities are 

subject to the General Provisions of the 

NESHAP at 40 CFR part 63, subpart A, 

and any changes, or additions to the 

Provisions specified at 40 CFR part 63, 

subpart AAAAAAA. 

Owners or operators of the affected 

facilities must submit a one-time-only 

report of any physical or operational 

changes, initial performance tests, and 

periodic reports and results. Owners or 

operators are also required to maintain 

records of the occurrence and duration 

of any startup, shutdown, or 

malfunction in the operation of an 

affected facility, or any period during 

which the monitoring system is 

inoperative. Reports are also required 

semiannually. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 19 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. 

Respondents/Affected Entities: 

Entities potentially affected by this 

action are the owners or operators of 

asphalt processing and roofing 

manufacturing facilities. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

75. 

Frequency of Response: Semiannually 

and annually. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

2,846. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: 

$276,724, which includes $275,599 in 

labor costs, no capital/startup costs, and 

$1,125 in operation and maintenance 

(O&M) costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is an 

adjustment increase in labor costs for 

the respondents from the most recently 

approved ICR. This increase is not due 

to any program changes. The adjustment 

increase reflects a change in labor rates 

from the Bureau of Labor Statistics as 

this ICR uses updated labor rates for 

calculating all burden costs. 

However, there is an overall decrease 

in labor hours, capital/startup costs, 

O&M costs, and Agency costs as 

currently identified in the OMB 

Inventory of Approved Burdens. The 

decrease in burden and cost estimates 

occurred because the standards have 

been in effect for more than three years 

and the requirements are different 

during initial compliance as compared 

to on-going compliance. The previous 

ICR reflected those burdens and costs 

associated with the initial activities for 

subject facilities. This includes 

purchasing monitoring equipment, 

conducting performance tests and 

establishing recordkeeping systems. 

This ICR, by and large, reflects the ongoing burden and costs for existing 

facilities. Activities for existing source 

include continuous monitoring of 

pollutants and the submission of 

semiannual reports.

Title: Brownfields Program— 

Accomplishment Reporting (Revision). 

ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 2104.05, 

OMB Control No. 2050–0192. 

ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to 

expire on October 31, 2015. Under OMB 

regulations, the Agency may continue to 

conduct or sponsor the collection of 

information while this submission is 

pending at OMB.’’ 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 the 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: This request is for a revision 

of the previously approved ICR 2104.04. 

The old forms were mistakenly attached 

in the last renewal’s posting. The 

purpose of this revision is to post the 

revised forms that were mistakenly left 

out of the last ICR renewal. The revised 

forms are the Property Profile Form, 

Property Profile Form Instructions, Job 

Training Reporting Form, and Job 

Training Reporting Form Instructions. 

The Small Business Liability Relief 

and Brownfields Revitalization Act 

(Public Law 107–118) (‘‘the Brownfields 

Amendments’’) was signed into law on 

January 11, 2002. The Act amends the 

Comprehensive Environmental 

Response, Compensation, and Liability 

Act (CERCLA), as amended, and 

authorizes the EPA to award cooperative 

agreements to states, tribes, local 

governments, and other eligible entities 

to assess and clean up brownfields sites. 

Under the Brownfields Amendments, a 

brownfield site means real property, the 

expansion, redevelopment, or reuse of 

which may be complicated by the 

presence or potential presence of a 

hazardous substance, pollutant, or 

contaminant. For funding purposes, the 

EPA uses the term ‘‘brownfield 

property(ies)’’ synonymously with the 

term ‘‘brownfield sites.’’ The 

Brownfields Amendments authorize the 

EPA to award several types of 

cooperative agreements to eligible 

entities on a competitive basis. 

Under subtitle A of the Small 

Business Liability Relief and 

Brownfields Revitalization Act, States, 

tribes, local governments, and other 

eligible entities can receive assessment 

cooperative agreements to inventory, 

characterize, assess, and conduct 

planning and community involvement 

related to brownfields properties; 

cleanup cooperative agreements to carry 

out cleanup activities at brownfields 

properties; cooperative agreements to 

capitalize revolving loan funds and 

provide subgrants for cleanup activities; 

and job training cooperative agreements 

to support the creation and 

implementation of environmental job 

training and placement programs. Under 

Subtitle C of the Small Business 

Liability Relief and Brownfields 

Revitalization Act, State and tribes can 

receive cooperative agreements to 

establish and enhance their response 

programs. The cooperative agreements 

support activities necessary to establish 

or enhance four elements of state and 

tribal response programs and to meet 

the public record requirements under 

the statute. The four elements eligible 

for funding include: (a) Timely survey 

and inventory of brownfield sites in the 

State or in the tribal land; (b) oversight 

and enforcement authorities or other 

mechanisms and resources; (c) 

mechanisms and resources to provide 

meaningful opportunities for public 

participation; and (d) mechanisms for 

approval of a cleanup plan and 

verification and certification that 

cleanup is complete. States and tribes 

that receive funding under subtitle C 

must establish a public record system 

during the funding period unless an 

adequate public record system is 

already established. 

Cooperative agreement recipients 

(recipients) have general reporting and 

record keeping requirements as a 

condition of their cooperative agreement 

that result in burden. A portion of this 

reporting and record keeping burden is 

authorized under 40 CFR Parts 30 and 

31 and identified in the EPA’s general 

grants ICR (OMB Control Number 2030– 

0020). The EPA requires Brownfields 

program recipients to maintain and 

report additional information to the EPA 

on the uses and accomplishments 

associated with the funded brownfields 

activities. The EPA uses several forms to 

assist recipients in reporting the 

information and to ensure consistency 

of the information collected. The EPA 

uses this information to meet Federal 

stewardship responsibilities to manage 

and track how program funds are being 

spent, to evaluate the performance of 

the Brownfields Cleanup and Land 

Revitalization Program, to meet the 

Agency’s reporting requirements under 

the Government Performance Results 

Act, and to report to Congress and other 

program stakeholders on the status and 

accomplishments of the program. 

This ICR addresses the burden 

imposed on recipients that are 

associated with those reporting and 

recordkeeping requirements that are 

specific to cooperative agreements 

awarded under the Small Business 

Liability Relief and Brownfields 

Revitalization Act. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 1.2 hours per 

response. For non-profit respondents 

the estimate is 1.7 hours per response 

and for state/local/tribal government 

respondents the estimate is 1.2 hours 

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 

disclosing and providing information; 

adjust the existing procedures 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. 

Respondents/Affected Entities: State, 

Local, and Tribal Governments; NonProfits. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

1,007. 

Frequency of Response: Bi-Annual for 

subtitle C recipients; Quarterly for 

subtitle A recipients. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

3,167 hours. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: 

$308,926, includes $0 annualized 

capital or O&M costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is no 

change in the total estimated hourly 

burden currently identified in the OMB 

Inventory of Approved ICR Burdens. 

OMB requested the separation of private 

(non-profit) and state/local/tribal 

government burden in the burden tables 

and, as a result, there was an increase 

of $15 in the total cost. This small 

increase is due to rounding.

Abstract: EPA created ENERGY STAR 

as a voluntary program to help 

businesses and individuals protect the 

environment through superior energy 

efficiency. The program focuses on 

reducing utility-generated emissions by 

reducing the demand for energy. In 

1991, EPA launched the Green Lights 

Program to encourage corporations, 

State and local governments, colleges 

and universities, and other 

organizations to adopt energy-efficient 

lighting as a profitable means of 

preventing pollution and improving 

lighting quality. Since then, EPA has 

rolled Green Lights into ENERGY STAR 

and expanded ENERGY STAR to 

encompass organization-wide energy 

performance improvement, such as 

building technology upgrades, product 

purchasing initiatives, and employee 

training. At the same time, EPA has 

streamlined the reporting requirements 

of ENERGY STAR and focused on 

providing incentives for improvements 

(e.g., ENERGY STAR Awards Program). 

EPA also makes tools and other 

resources available on the Web to help 

the public overcome the barriers to 

evaluating their energy performance and 

investing in profitable improvements. 

To join ENERGY STAR, organizations 

are asked to complete a Partnership 

Letter or Agreement that establishes 

their commitment to energy efficiency. 

Partners agree to undertake efforts such 

as measuring, tracking, and 

benchmarking their organization’s 

energy performance by using tools such 

as those offered by ENERGY STAR; 

developing and implementing a plan to 

improve energy performance in their 

facilities and operations by adopting a 

strategy provided by ENERGY STAR; 

and educating staff and the public about 

their Partnership with ENERGY STAR, 

and highlighting achievements with the 

ENERGY STAR, where available. 

Partners also may be asked to 

periodically submit information to EPA 

as needed to assist in program 

implementation. 

Partnership in ENERGY STAR is 

voluntary and can be terminated by 

Partners or EPA at any time. EPA does 

not expect organizations to join the 

program unless they expect 

participation to be cost-effective and 

otherwise beneficial for them. 

In addition, Partners and any other 

interested party can seek recognition 

and help EPA promote energy-efficient 

technologies by evaluating the 

efficiency of their buildings using EPA’s 

on-line tools (e.g., Portfolio Manager) 

and applying for recognition. EPA does 

not expect to deem any information 

collected under ENERGY STAR to be 

Confidential Business Information (CBI).
