biomass verification provisions, akin to that applicable to producers using crops and crop residue grown in the United States. For this authorization, foreign based entities may petition EPA for approval of the aggregate compliance approach for specified renewable fuel feedstocks either in a foreign country as a whole or in a specified geographical area. This petition request for the aggregate compliance approach for foreign-grown crops and crop residue is voluntary, though, if approved by EPA, will offer the benefit that certain renewable biomass produced in a foreign country or geographical area can be counted as feedstock to make renewable fuel for credit under the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS2) program in 40 CFR Part 80.

Form numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: 15. Respondent’s obligation to respond: Voluntary.

Estimated number of respondents: 15 (total).

Frequency of response: On occasion. Total estimated burden: 200 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b).

Total estimated cost: $22,794 (per year), includes no annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.

Changes in estimates: There is no increase of hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB. The respondent universe and responses also remained the same in this collection. There was in increase in cost to the industry of $8,598 per year due to better numbers used to calculate the industry burden and to account for inflation.

**SUMMARY :**  The Environmental Protection Agency is planning to submit an information collection request (ICR), ‘‘Motor Vehicle Emissions: Revisions to Certification of Alternative Fuels Conversions’’ (EPA ICR No. 0783.64, OMB Control No. 2060–0104) to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq. ). Before doing so, EPA is soliciting public comments on specific aspects of the proposed information collection as described below. This is a proposed extension of the ICR, which is currently approved through May 31, 2014.

**DATES :**  Comments must be submitted on or before February 18, 2014.

**ADDRESSES :**  Submit your comments, referencing Docket ID No. EPA–HQ– OAR–2009–0299 online using www.regulations.gov (our preferred method), or by mail to: EPA Docket Center, Environmental Protection Agency, Mail Code 28221T, 1200 Pennsylvania Ave. NW., Washington, DC 20460.

Pursuant to section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA, EPA is soliciting comments and information to enable it to: (i) Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the Agency, including whether the information will have practical utility; (ii) evaluate the accuracy of the Agency’s estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (iii) enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (iv) minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses. EPA will consider the comments received and amend the ICR as appropriate. The final ICR package will then be submitted to OMB for review and approval. At that time, EPA will issue another Federal Register notice to announce the submission of the ICR to OMB and the opportunity to submit additional comments to OMB.

Abstract: With this ICR renewal, EPA is seeking permission to continue recordkeeping and reporting requirements for manufacturers to submit information to EPA to ensure compliance with the provisions of EPA’s Clean Alternative Fuel Vehicle and Engine Conversions Final Rule which was issued on April 8, 2011 (76 FR 19830). This includes a variety of requirements for alternative fuel vehicle/engine converters who seek an exemption from the anti-tampering prohibition in section 203(a)(3) of the Clean Air Act. Under Title II of the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7521 et seq.)

Form Numbers: EPA Form Number 5800–257 and EPA Form Number 5800–
258.

Respondents/affected entities: This action will affect companies and persons that manufacture, assemble, sell, import, or install alternative fuel conversions for light-duty vehicles, light-duty trucks, medium-duty passenger vehicles.

Respondent’s obligation to respond: Required to obtain or retain a benefit.

Estimated number of respondents: 25 (total).

Frequency of response: On occasion as needed to obtain certification.

Total estimated cost: $2,689,777 (per year), includes $363,059 annualized capital or operation & maintenance
costs.

Changes in estimates: There is an increase of 20,657 hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB. This increase is due primarily to the increase in the number of

**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 proceduresavailable 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 August 8, 2010 the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) submitted an amended application titled ‘‘Air Compliance and Emission Electronic Reporting System’’ for modification of its EPA-authorized Part 70 program under title 40 CFR. EPA reviewed NYSDEC’s request to modify Part 70— ‘‘State Operating Permit Programs’’ and, based on this review, EPA determined that the application met the standards for approval of authorized program modification 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 New York State’s request to modify its Part 70—State Operating Permit Programs to allow electronic reporting under 40 CFR part 70 is being published in the Federal Register

.

NYSDEC was notified of EPA’s determination to approve its application with respect to the authorized program listed above.
