ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

AGENCY

[FRL–6527–6]

Agency Information Collection

Activities: Proposed Collection;

Comment Request; Information

Collection Request for the Existing

Concentration of Analytically

Detectable Congeners of

Polychlorinated Biphenyls, Dioxins,

And Furans In Biosolids Generated By

Publicly Owned Treatment Works

(POTWs) Under the National Biosolids

Program

AGENCY: Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: In compliance with the

Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.

3501 et seq.), this document announces

that EPA is planning to submit the

following proposed Information

Collection Request (ICR) to the Office of

Management and Budget (OMB):

Information Collection Request for the

existing concentration of analytically

detectable congeners of Polychlorinated

Biphenyls, Dioxins, Furans, in Biosolids

generated by POTWs under the National

Biosolids Program (40 CFR part 503),

EPA ICR 1930.01. Before submitting the

ICR to OMB for review and approval,

EPA is soliciting comments on specific

aspects of the proposed information

collection as described below.

DATES: Comments must be submitted on

or before March 24, 2000.

ADDRESSES: Interested persons may

obtain a copy of this ICR without charge

by contacting Ash Sajjad, NPDES

Branch, Water Division (WN–16J), U.S.

Environmental Protection Agency,

Region 5, 77 West Jackson Boulevard,

Chicago, Illinois 60604, telephone

number (312) 886–6112, E-mail address

‘‘sajjad.ash@epa.gov’’.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ash

Sajjad, telephone number (312) 886–

6112, facsimile number (312) 886–7804,

E-mail address ‘‘sajjad.ash@epa.gov’.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Affected entities: Entities potentially

affected by this action are 25 of the 33

POTWs that generated analytically

detectable concentration of

polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in

their biosolids reported in the 1988

NSSS.

Title: Survey Of The Existing

Concentration Of Analytically

Detectable Congeners Of

Polychlorinated Biphenyls, Dioxins, and

Furans In Biosolids Generated By

POTWs Under The National Biosolids

Program (40 CFR part 503) (EPA ICR

Number 1930.01).

Abstract: EPA plans to conduct a

survey of biosolids generated by a

randomly selected subgroup of up to

twenty five POTWs from the thirty three

POTWs which tested positive for PCBs

and reported in the 1988 NSSS. Because

the management of the biosolids

program is the responsibility of the

Office of Wastewater Management

(OWM) in the Office of Water (OW),

Environmental Protection Agency

(EPA), and the Clean Water Act requires

EPA to periodically review the

regulations for the purpose of

identifying additional toxic pollutants

and promulgating regulations. The

OWM designated Region 5,

headquartered in Chicago, Illinois, to

conduct this survey to assess the

existing concentration of these

pollutants in biosolids generated by

POTWs. The specific purpose of this

survey is to evaluate the need to

develop regulations, policies, and

guidance to control these pollutants in

the environment. The USEPA will

contract the sampling, chemical analysis

of biosolids, and interpretation and

reporting of analytical data to a contract

laboratory selected through an open

bidding process. The contract laboratory

will be collecting representative grab

samples of biosolids at suitable

locations at the selected POTWs, and

will measure the analytically detectable

concentrations of the congeners of PCBs,

dioxins, and furans using EPA Methods

No. 1668 for PCBs, and Method No.1613

for dioxins and furans.
