SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Title: New Source Performance

Standards (NSPS), Subpart TTT, Surface

Coating of Plastic Parts for Business

Machines. OMB Control Number 2060–

0162, EPA ICR Number 1093.06,

expiration date 8/31/2000. This is a

request for extension of a currently

approved collection.

Abstract: Industrial surface coating

operations emit volatile organic

compounds (VOCs) in quantities that

the Administrator believes cause or

contribute to air pollution that may

reasonably be anticipated to endanger

public health or welfare. Consequently,

New Source Performance Standards for

the surface coating of plastic parts for

business machines were promulgated.

VOC emissions from these facilities are

the result of operation of the spray

booths that apply prime coats, color

coats, texture coats or touch-up coats.

The standards ensure that owners or

operators of these facilities use coatings

that contain a low proportion of VOCs,

and coating application equipment that

provides a high transfer efficiency. In

addition, or as an alternative, sources

may use control equipment to meet the

emission limits. In order to ensure

compliance with these standards,

adequate recordkeeping is necessary. In

the absence of such information,

enforcement personnel would be unable

to determine whether the standards are

being met on a continuous basis, as

required by the Clean Air Act.

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 EPA’s regulations are listed

in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR Chapter

15. The Federal Register document

required under 5 CFR 1320.8(d),

soliciting comments on this collection

of information was published on

January 21, 2000 (61 FR 45959); no

comments were received.

Burden Statement: The annual public

reporting and recordkeeping burden for

this collection of information is

estimated to average 30 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; 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:

Industrial surface coating companies

that process plastic parts used in the

manufacture of business machines.

Estimated Number of Respondents:

41.

Frequency of Response: Initial,

Quarterly, Semi-Annually.

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:

Title: Reporting and Recordkeeping

Requirements Under EPA’s WasteWise

Program, OMB Control No. 2050–0139;

EPA ICR No. 1698.04, expiration date

July 31, 2000. This is a request for

extension of a currently approved

collection.

Abstract: EPA’s voluntary WasteWise

program encourages businesses and

other organizations to reduce solid

waste through waste prevention,

recycling, and the purchase or

manufacture of recycled-content

products. WasteWise participants

include Partners, which commit to

implementing waste reduction activities

of choice, and Endorsers, which choose

to promote the WasteWise program and

waste reduction to their members.

Endorsers, which are typically trade

associations or other membership-based

organizations, are asked to submit only

a one-page form, the Endorser

Registration Form. This form identifies

the organization, principal contact, and

the activities to which the Endorser

commits. Partners are asked to fill out

35924 Federal Register / Vol. 65, No. 109 / Tuesday, June 6, 2000 / Notices

three forms as follows. The Partner

Registration Form identifies the

organization and the facilities that will

participate in WasteWise. Each Partner

develops its own waste reduction goals

and submits a one-page Goals

Identification Form to EPA every three

years. Partners also report annually on

the progress made toward achieving

these goals in the Annual Reporting

Form.

The EPA WasteWise program uses the

voluntarily submitted information to: (1)

Identify and recognize outstanding

waste reduction achievements by

individual organizations, (2) compile

aggregate results that indicate overall

accomplishments of WasteWise

Partners, (3) identify cost-effective waste

reduction strategies to share with other

organizations, and (4) identify topics on

which to develop assistance and

information efforts.

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 EPA’s regulations are listed

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Title: Data Generation for Pesticide

Reregistration OMB Control No. 2070–

0107, EPA ICR No. 1504.04, expiration

date May 30, 2000.

Abstract: Pursuant to section 4 of the

Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and

Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), as amended,

EPA must assess health and safety data

for all pesticide active ingredients

originally registered before November 1,

1984, to determine whether such

pesticides’ use poses unreasonable risks

to human health or the environment. In

addition, the Federal Food Drug and

Cosmetic Act (FFDCA), as amended by

the Food Quality Protection Act of 1996

(FQPA), requires the Agency to reassess

all existing tolerances (maximum limits

for pesticide residues in food or feed) to

ensure that they meet the safety

standard in FPQA.

Currently, EPA is implementing Phase

5 of the Reregistration Program. In this

final stage, the Agency is actively

reviewing the studies submitted for each

pesticide and determining whether or

not the pesticide is eligible for

reregistration—that is, whether the data

base is substantially complete, and the

pesticide does not cause unreasonable

adverse effects to people or the

environment when used in accordance

with approved labeling. EPA is also

reassessing tolerances for any related

food uses, and considering whether the

pesticide meets the new safety standard

in FQPA.

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 EPA’s regulations are listed

in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR Chapter

15. The Federal Register document

required under 5 CFR 1320.8(d),

of information was published on June

16, 1999 (64 FR 32225; no comments

were received.

Burden Statement: The annual public

reporting and recordkeeping burden for

this collection of information is

estimated to average 3,024 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;

technology and systems for the purposes
