# 1 IDENTIFICATION OF THE INFORMATION COLLECTION

1(a) Title and Number of the Information Collection

Title: Information Collection Request for the Proposed Revised Total Coliform Rule

OMB Control Number: 2040-AD94

EPA ICR Number: 1895.06

Note: This Information Collection Request (ICR) covers onl y the first three years after rule promulgation.

The description of reporting and recordkeeping burde n required for the full rule implementation, which

exceeds the 3-year period for this ICR, is provided for informational purposes only. The costs and burden

associated with the 3-year period of this ICR is descr ibed in Section 6 while the costs and burden of the

10-year full implementation period is provided in Appendix A.



## 1(b) Short Characterization

The proposed Revised Total Coliform Rule (RTCR) requires information collection

regarding the effectiveness of treatment, the inte grity of the distribution system, and the possible

presence of fecal contamination. All public water systems (PWSs) are included in this

information collection. The proposed RTCR uses to tal coliforms as an indicator to start an

evaluation process that, where necessary, will requi re the PWS to correct sa nitary defects. Under

the proposed RTCR, E. coli will remain a regulated contaminant with a maximum contaminant

level goal (MCLG) of zero and a maximum cont aminant level (MCL) based on the presence of

total coliforms and/or E. coli . All fecal coliform provisions (i ncluding the MCLG and MCL) are

removed in the proposed RTCR. The intent of the proposed RTCR is to better address the 1989

Total Coliform Rule (TCR) objectives and enhance the multi-barrier approach to protecting

public health, especially with re spect to smaller ground water PWSs.

A large portion of the data collection under the proposed RT CR will involve monitoring,

assessments, corrective actions, and public notification. Under the proposed RTCR, PWSs would

continue to monitor for total coliforms and E. coli in the distribution system . All PWSs that meet

certain trigger conditions (either a Level 1 or Leve l 2 trigger) are required to complete a Level 1

or Level 2 assessment and submit an assessment form to the state 1 

## within a specified time period.

For corrective actions not completed within the specified time period, PWSs must submit to the

state a timetable for completing the corrective act ions. Additionally, PWSs would continue to be

required to provide public notific ation for violations (the leve l of notification depends on the

degree of public health implicat ion of the violation). Some st ate activities under the proposed

RTCR include review and revision of PWSs’ samp le siting plans; review of PWSs’ sampling

results; review of completed assessment forms; consultation and coordination with PWSs to

determine the appropriate correctiv e action to be implemented; revi ew of PWSs’ certification of

public notification; and recordk eeping of PWSs’ submissions.

### The term “state” in the context of this ICR refers to any state or other primacy agency that has oversight

authority for drinking water programs.

### ICR for the Proposed RTCR June 2010

2 

## PWSs and states have monitoring, reporti ng, and recordkeeping requirements under the

national primary drinking water re gulations (NPDWRs) (see 40 CFR 2 

## 141.402, 40 CFR 141.403,

40 CFR 142.405, 40 CFR 142.14, 40 CFR 142.15). All aff ected PWSs shall maintain and report

to the state information documenting comp liance with the treatment and monitoring

requirements under the NPDWRs. States shall maintain records e ssential for program

implementation and oversight. These records, reta ined in the Safe Drinking Water Information

System (SDWIS), allow the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to track PWS compliance

with NPDWRs.

Data collected under the Safe Drinking Wate r Act (SDWA) are used by EPA’s Office of

Ground Water and Drinking Water (OGWDW), and other EPA programs such as Superfund and

Resource Conservation and Recove ry Act (RCRA). The data may also be used by the Farmers

Home Administration, the Department of the In terior, the Department of Housing and Urban

Development, the U.S. Army Corps of Engin eers, White House Task forces, the Federal

Emergency Management Agency, the Food and Dr ug Administration, public interest groups, and

many private companies and individuals.

This ICR presents the burden and costs of the proposed RTCR to PWSs and states during

the first three years following rule promulgation. For this 3-year ICR period, the average annual

net change respondent burden and cost to PW Ss and states is estimated at 839,526 hours and

$23,767,060. The annual net change burden and cost to PWSs is estimated at 747,848 hours and

$20,171,639. The estimated net change annual state burden for this ICR is 91,678 hours, at an

estimated annual net change cost of $3,595,421. All costs estimated ar e labor costs. There are no

operation and maintenance (O&M) or capital cost s for the 3-year period covered by this ICR.

The net change burden and cost es timates are discussed in greater detail in Section 6 of this

document.

Beyond the first three years af ter rule promulgation (when PWSs and states need to

comply with the rule), the burden and costs associ ated with complying with the rule for states

and PWSs will be captured in the Microbial Rules ICR (for monitoring burden and costs) and the

Public Water System Supervision (PWSS) ICR (for public notification reporting and

recordkeeping burden and costs). Since th ere are ongoing reporti ng and recordkeeping

requirements under the current TCR, Appendix A of this ICR shows the net change in the

reporting and recordkeeping burde n and costs to be incurred by PWSs under the proposed

RTCR. Note that these calculations are for info rmational purposes only and are not part of this

ICR.

The total number of respondents for this ICR is 154,894; 154,837 respondents are PWSs

and 57 respondents are states and territories. The average annual net change in the number of

responses for PWSs is 103,225 and averages 2.0 responses per respondent annually. The average

annual net change in the number of responses for states is 51,669 and averages 906.5 responses

per respondent annually.

This ICR was prepared in accordance with the November 2005 version of EPA’s Guide

to Writing Information Collection Requests Un der the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995

# 2 NEED FOR AND USE OF THE COLLECTION

The following sections describe the need fo r this information collection and the legal

authority under which this information will be collected. Section 4 contains a summary of the

major recordkeeping and reporting re quirements for the proposed RTCR.

2(a) Need/Authority for the Collection

The proposed RTCR achieves the objectives of the 1989 TCR more effectively and

efficiently, taking into account the changes in regulatory framework for implementing the

SDWA over the past 20 years a nd experience with the TCR sin ce it was promulgated in 1989.

The information collected under the proposed RTCR is required by EPA to carry out its

monitoring and enforcement responsibilities under the SDWA. Without comprehensive,

up-to-date information on drinki ng water contamination, EPA would not be able to meet the

SDWA statutory requirements.

Section 1401(1)(D) of the SD WA requires that an NPDWR

contains criteria and procedures to assure a supply of drinking water which dependably

complies with such maximum contaminant le vels; including accepted methods for quality

control and testing procedures to insure co mpliance with such levels and to insure

proper operation and maintenance of the system...

This section also authorizes EPA to require PWSs and laboratories to use EPA-approved

methods and quality assurance criteria fo r collecting and analyzing water samples.

Section 1445(a)(1)(A) of the SDWA require s that persons subj ect to the NPDWR

requirements

establish and maintain such records, make such reports, conduct such monitoring, and

provide such information as the Administra tor may reasonably require by regulation to

assist the Administrator in es tablishing regulations under th is subchapter, in determining

whether such person has acted or is acti ng in compliance with this subchapter...

### ICR for the Proposed RTCR June 2010

## 2(b) Use/Users of the Data

Once compliance with the RTCR begins, each PWS maintains PWS-level records on the

analytical results of monitoring actions and corrective act ions taken and of the reports or written

communications with the state re garding violations, assessments, corrective actions, and public

notification (see 40 CFR 141.31 and 141.33). PWSs will us e the data collected from this ICR and

from the Microbial Rules ICR and PWSS ICR, when the rules goes into compliance, to:

 Determine system-specific needs

 Evaluate the effectiveness of treatment

 Determine the integrity of the distribution system

 Signal the possible presence of fecal contamination

 Correct significant deficiencies

 Alert the public through notices in the mass media or water bills when PWSs are not in

compliance with Federal and state regulations

States are required to maintain reco rds compiled from PWS respondents (40 CFR

142.14). States can use these records to track PWS monitoring, complia nce violations, and

enforcement activities. States can also track sc hedules for PWSs trying to achieve compliance.

States are required to report the number of viol ations to SDWIS, which will help them target

PWSs for compliance and take the necessary reme dial action. SDWIS is a Federal information

system that allows EPA and the states to stor e and retrieve information over time. Trends in

compliance data can be evaluated at the PWS level, at the state level, and at the national program

level. Usually, these data are used by EPA fo r maintaining oversight of the drinking water

program (including supporting th e Six-Year Review of NPDWRs mandated by SDWA) and for

supporting Federal enforcement actions in cases where states fail to enforce.

The states and EPA have a number of critical questions to answer as part of their

supervision of PWSs. Informati on and data collected from this ICR and from the Microbial

Rules ICR and PWSS ICR can be used to answer these questions, some of which are listed

below.

At the PWS level:

 Does a PWS have Level 1 or Level 2 triggers requiring Level 1 or Level 2 assessments?

 Does the result of a Level 1 or a Level 2 asse ssment indicate the pres ence of (a) sanitary

defect(s) that require(s) corrective actions?

 For PWSs not in compliance, why are they not in compliance and how can compliance be

achieved?

### ICR for the Proposed RTCR June 2010

6 

##  What is the threat to public health of a PWS that is not in compliance?

At the national and state level:

 What are the national and state compliance trends?

 What changes in national policy or regulati on may be needed to increase the national

compliance rate?

 Is noncompliance a function of location, si ze, or other identifiable variable?

Requests for PWS data and related statistical analyses are frequent. Requests for SDWIS

data are often received under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). Approximately 200 FOIA

requests are received per year. EPA also mainta ins an Internet access point for SDWIS data at

their “Envirofacts” Internet site.

# 3 NON-DUPLICATION, CO NSULTATIONS, AND OTHER

COLLECTION CRITERIA

The following sections verify and affirm that this ICR satisfies the PRA requirements,

meets the OMB data-collection guidelines, has public support, and does not duplicate another

collection.

3(a) Non-duplication

EPA has searched the Federal Information Locato r System (FILS) in an effort to ensure

nonduplication of the data collection efforts. Th e information collected under the proposed

RTCR is needed to determine a PWS’s risk of microbial contamination and to evaluate the

PWS’s compliance. To the best of EPA’s knowledge , data required by this proposed rule are not

available from any other source.

3(b) Public Notice Required Pr ior to ICR Submission to OMB

Since this ICR is part of a proposed rule , public notice is not required prior to its

submission to OMB. Instead, a notice for public comment for the ICR is included in the

preamble of the proposed RTCR. Based on publ ic comment received on the proposed rule,

modifications will be made to the rule and underl ying analyses prior to promulgation of the final

rule. Where appropriate, these modifications will al so be reflected in this ICR. A full discussion

of public comments on the proposed RTCR, as we ll as EPA’s responses, will be provided in a

separate document which will be available in the public docket established for this rulemaking

once the final rule is published.

3(c) Consultations

EPA noticed its intent to revise the 1989 TCR in July 2003 (68 FR 42908, July 18, 2003).

To support the revisions of the TCR, EPA held several outreach activitie s and consultations. One

of these outreach activities is a technical wo rkshop that EPA held in Washington, DC, from

January 30 to February 1, 2007 to discuss available information on the current TCR and

available information regarding risks in distribution systems.

In June 2007, EPA established the Total Colif orm Rule / Distribution System Advisory

Committee in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA),

to provide recommendations to EPA on revisions to the 1989 TCR and on what information

about distribution systems is needed to better und erstand and address public health impacts from

potential degradation of drinking water quality in distribution systems. The committee members

agreed on and signed the Agreement in Principle (AIP) that contains the advisory committee’s

recommendations on revisions to the TCR that will improve implementation while maintaining

or improving public health protection and distri bution system water quality. The provisions of

the proposed RTCR are based on the AIP.

### ICR for the Proposed RTCR June 2010

8 

## EPA has also committed in the AIP to hold a stakeholder meeting no less than once per

year to engage stakeholders in the deve lopment of the proposed RTCR. EPA held two

stakeholder meetings, the first one in Apr il 2009 and the second one in May 2010, to provide

draft proposed regulation updates an d an opportunity for stakeholders to provide feedback on the

development of the proposed RTCR.

As mandated by SDWA, EPA also consulte d with the Science Advisory Board, the

National Drinking Water Advisory Council, and the Secretary of the US Department of Health

and Human Services on the proposed RTCR. EPA also consulted with Tribal governments in

accordance with Executive Order 13175: Consultation and Coordination with Tribal

Governments . EPA also convened a Small Business Advo cacy Review Panel (SBARP) to look at

the impacts of the proposed RTCR on small entitie s. A more detailed discussion on this latter

consultation can be found in Section 5(c) of th is ICR. EPA considered the recommendations it

got from these consultations in developing the proposed RTCR.

3(d) Effects of Le ss Frequent Collection

During the three-year period covered by this ICR, EPA requires no reporting and

recordkeeping associated with co mplying with the proposed RTCR.

For compliance with the proposed RTCR (whi ch happens beyond the three years covered

by this ICR) EPA has determined that the monitoring frequencies for total coliforms and E. coli

required of PWSs under the proposed RTCR are a ppropriate since less fre quent data collection

may fail to identify, in a timely manner, significan t contaminant concentrations that may threaten

the health and safety of drinki ng water consumers. EPA has consid ered alternatives for a wide

range of frequency and burden estimates for data collection. EPA has selected the approach that

requires the least frequent coll ection possible while maintaining its public health protection

objectives.

3(e) General Guidelines

This ICR was prepared in accordance w ith the November 2005 ICR Handbook prepared

by EPA’s Office of Environmental Information, Office of Information Collection, Collection

Strategies Division. The ICR Handbook provides the most curre nt instructions for ICR

preparation to ensure compliance with th e 1995 PRA amendments and OMB’s implementing

guidelines.

3(f) Confidentiality

No confidential information will be collected as a result of this ICR.

3(g) Sensitive Questions

No information of a sensitive nature will be collected as a result of this ICR.

# 4 RESPONDENTS AND IN FORMATION REQUESTED

The following sections provide information on the respondents and the information they

are requested to provide.

4(a) Respondents/NAICS Codes

Under the proposed RTCR, respondents to th e monitoring, reporting, and recordkeeping

requirements include the operators and owners of PWSs, which include noncommunity water

systems (NCWSs). The North American Industr y Classification System (NAICS) Code for

investor-owned water systems is 22131; the Stan dard Industrial Classifi cation (SIC) Code is

4941. The NAICS Code for both publicly owned wa ter systems and state agencies is 92411 and

the SIC Code is 9511. State officials serve in a role of respondent when reporting compliance

data to EPA.

PWSs are defined as those systems that pr ovide piped water for human consumption and

have at least 15 service connections or regularly serve at least 25 people at least 60 days per year.

A community water system (CWS) is a PWS th at serves at least 15 connections used by

year-round residents or regularly serves at leas t 25 year-round residents. NCWSs, by definition,

are all other PWSs. NCWSs include transient systems and non-tran sient systems. Non-transient

systems serve the same 25 people at least 6 months per year (40 CFR 141.2).

4(b) Information Requested

4(b)(i) Data Items

States

During the first three years after rule promulgation, states need not comply with the

proposed RTCR since the compliance date is th ree years after promul gation. Therefore, EPA

requires no reporting and recordkeeping from stat es with regards to RTCR compliance. EPA,

however, expects states to prep are and submit their primacy app lications during this period. In

addition to the general requirements contained in 40 CFR 142.16, EPA requi res a state’s primacy

application to contain information specific to the RTCR. This information includes:

 The baseline and reduced monitoring provisi ons of the proposed RTCR the state will

adopt and how the state will implement those provisions;

 Written descriptions of the following:

o Frequency and process used to review and revise sample siting plans;

o Criteria for reduced monitoring;

o Process for implementing the new assessmen t and corrective acti on provisions of the

proposed RTCR;

### ICR for the Proposed RTCR June 2010

10 

## o Criteria and process for invalidati ng routine or repeat samples;

o Criteria and process for approval of indivi duals allowed to conduct Level 1 and Level

2 assessments;

o Procedure for performing special monitoring evaluations during sanitary surveys for

ground water systems serving 1,000 persons or fewer to determine whether systems

are on an appropriate monitoring schedule;

o Process of identifying seasonal systems a nd determining their monitoring schedule

and start-up procedures;

o Additional criteria for reduced monitoring; and

o Procedures for seasonal systems to start- up operations at the beginning of each

system.

The following are the reporting and recordk eeping requirements for states beyond the

first three years after rule prom ulgation (when PWSs need to comply with the RTCR). The costs

and burden determination to comp ly with these requirements are not included in this ICR.

In addition to the reporting requireme nts specified in 40 CFR 142.15, the proposed

RTCR requires states to report the following to EPA (see proposed RTCR §142.15(c)(3)).

 A list of systems that the state is allo wing to monitor under a reduced monitoring

frequency.

In addition to those already specified in 40 CFR 142.14, states are required to keep

records of the followi ng (see §142.14(a)(10)):

 Any decision to waive or extend the 24-hour time limit for collecting samples following

either a total coliform-positive routine sa mple, invalidation, or a high turbidity

measurement;

 Any decision to allow a system to waive th e requirement for three routine samples the

month following a total coliform-positive sample;

 Any decision to invalidate a total coliform-positive sample;

 Completed and approved Level 1 and/or Level 2 assessments, including reports from the

system that corrective ac tion has been completed;

 Any decision to reduce the total coliform monitoring frequency for a community water

system serving 1,000 persons or fewer to less than once per month;

 Any decision to reduce the total coliform monitoring frequency for a noncommunity

water system using only ground water and se rving 1,000 persons or fewer to less than

once per quarter;

### ICR for the Proposed RTCR June 2010

11 

##  Any decision to reduce the total coliform monitoring frequency for a noncommunity

water system using only ground water and se rving more than 1,000 persons during any

month the system serves 1,000 persons or fewer; and

 Any decision to allow a system to forgo E. coli testing of a total coliform-positive sample

if that system assumes that the total coliform-positive sample is E. coli- positive.

Public Water Systems

During the first three years after rule promulgation, PWSs need not comply with the

RTCR since the compliance date is three years after promulgation. Therefore, EPA requires no

reporting and recordkeeping from PWSs with regards to RTCR compliance. EPA, however,

expects that PWSs will start revi sing their sample siting plans as necessary so that they will be

available for state review and revision when the systems have to comply with the rule.

The following are the reporting and record keeping requirements for PWSs beyond the

first three years after rule prom ulgation (when PWSs need to comply with the RTCR). The costs

and burden determination to comp ly with these requirements are not included in this ICR.

In addition to the reporting requirements specified in 40 CFR 141.31, PWSs are required

by the proposed RTCR to report the fo llowing to the states (see §141.861(a)):

 E. coli MCL violation by no later than the end of the next business day after it learns of

the violation, and provide public notification;

 E. coli -positive sample by no later than the end of the next business day after the PWS

learns of the analytical result;

 Treatment technique violation for total coli forms by no later than the end of the next

business day after the PWS learns of th e violation. The PWS must provide public

notification;

 Completion of each scheduled corrective acti on for corrections not completed by the time

of submission of the assessment form; and

### ICR for the Proposed RTCR June 2010

12 

##  Monitoring violation within 10 days after the PWS discovers the violation. The PWS

must provide public notification.

In addition to the recordkeeping requirements for PWSs specified in 40 CFR 141.33,

PWSs are required by the proposed RTCR to ke ep records of the following (see §141.861(b)):

 Any assessment form, documentation of corr ective actions completed as a result of

assessments, or other available summary doc umentation of the sanitary defects and

corrective actions take n for state review.

4(b)(ii) Respondent Activities

States

During the first three years afte r rule promulgation, the only ac tivities that take place are

state primacy application and start-up activities, which include:

 Reading and understanding the rule;

 Adopting the rule and developi ng state program that will su pport implementation of the

rule;

 Modifying data management system;

 Training staff; and

 Reviewing PWS sample siting plans and pr oviding recommendations for revisions to

PWSs.

Beyond the first three years, when PWSs need to comply with the RTCR, EPA expects

the states to be involved in the following incremen tal activities (note that these activities are not

part of the cost and burden determination fo r this ICR). Figure 4.1 s hows the schedule of

information collection and other complia nce activities under the proposed RTCR.

 Tracking compliance;

 Analyzing and reviewing PWS data;

 Making determinations concerning PWS monitoring requirements;

 Responding to PWSs with positive samples (for the calculations shown in Appendix A,

note that the net change in burden and costs fo r states to review PWSs monitoring results

### ICR for the Proposed RTCR June 2010

13 

## is zero because the TCR met hodology is calculated on a pe r PWS basis and the total

number of PWSs is the same for mo deling under the TCR and proposed RTCR);

 Recordkeeping;

 Reviewing completed assessment forms and consulting with the PWS about the

assessment form;

 Reviewing and coordinating with PWSs to de termine the optimal co rrective action to be

implemented; and

 Providing consultation, reviewing the public notification certification, and filing the

report of the violation.

Public Water Systems

During the first three years af ter rule promulgation, EPA anticipates PWSs to perform

start-up activities, which include:

 Reading and understanding the rule;

 Planning, and mobilization; and

 Revising existing sampling plans to identify sampling locations and collection schedules

that are representative of water throughout the dist ribution system.

Beyond the first three years, when PWSs need to comply with the RTCR, EPA

anticipates PWSs to be involved in the following incremental activities (not e that these activities

are not part of the cost and burden determinatio n for this ICR). Figure 4.1 shows the schedule for

information collection and other complia nce activities under the proposed RTCR.

 Conducting routine, additi onal routine, and repe at coliform monitoring. 3



##  Completing a Level 1 assessment if the PW S experiences a Level 1 trigger, and

submitting a timetable to the state to identify sanitary defects detected, corrective actions

completed, and a timetable for any corre ctive actions not already completed.

 Completing a Level 2 assessment if the PW S experiences a Level 2 trigger, and

submitting a timetable for any corrective actions not already completed.

3 

### For the calculations shown in Appendix A, note that the net change in reporting and recordkeeping burden

and costs for PWSs to submit monitoring results to Stat es is zero because the TCR methodology is calculated on a

per PWS basis and the total number of PWSs is the same for modeling under the TCR and proposed RTCR.

##  Developing and distributing Ti er 1 public notices when E. coli MCL violations occur.

### For the calculations shown in Appendix A, note that only the net change in the number of corrective

actions performed under the proposed RTCR is accounted for. EPA estimates that additional corrective actions

would be performed for only 10% of the assessments undert aken as a result of the pr oposed RTCR. EPA estimates

that corrective actions found through Level 1 assessments would result in corrective actions that focus more on

transient solutions than on permanent fixes to the PWS. Corrective actions taken as a result of Level 2 assessments

are expected to find a higher proportion of structural/tec hnical issues resulting in material fixes to the PWSs and

distribution system.ICR for the Proposed RTCR June 201015Figure 4.1: Implementation ScheduleYearYear 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5 Year 6 Year 7 Year 8 Year 9 Year 10StateImplementationRevising Sampling PlanRoutine monitoring, Additional routine monitoring, Repeat MonitoringAnnual Site VisitsLevel 1 and Level 2 AssessmentsCorrection Actions Based on Level 1 and Level 2 AssessmentsPublic NotificationPWSImplementationRevising Sampling PlanRoutine monitoring, Additional routine monitoring, Repeat MonitoringAnnual Site VisitsLevel 1 and Level 2 AssessmentsCorrection Actions Based on Level 1 and Level 2 AssessmentsPublic NotificationNote: Activities occurring in Year 10 continue throughout the remaining years of analysis

# 5 INFORMATION COLLECTED -- AGENCY ACTIVITIES,

COLLECTION METHODOL OGY, AND INFORMATION

MANAGEMENT

The following sections describe EPA activi ties related to analyz ing, maintaining, and

distributing the information collected.

5(a) EPA Activities

The EPA will be responsible for promulgati ng the RTCR once it has been finalized and

overseeing its implementation. Implementation of monitoring requirements will rely extensively

on state governments in those states that have assumed primacy under section 1413 of the

SDWA and §142.16 of the proposed RTCR. The EPA will be involved in the following

activities:

 Developing the RTCR and guidance materials;

 Reviewing and analyzing data s ubmissions from the states; and

 Processing and maintaining the SDWIS.

These are all general activities that are covered under the PWSS Program ICR, and therefore, are

not included in the EPA burden and costs estimates for this ICR.

5(b) Collection Methodology and Management

Upon compliance, states will se nd their records of PWSs’ vi olations and whether a PWS

had a sanitary survey to SDWIS. EPA will modi fy SDWIS and data verification procedures to

accommodate the new information from the proposed RTCR.

EPA will check data quality by doing the following:

 Developing standard operating procedures for each rule;

 Editing the data submitted for conten t and required format in SDWIS;

 Sending rejected data back to th e states for error corrections;

 Requiring states to resubmit corrected data;

 Data verification audit of states based on da ta verification protocol established by EPA;

and

 Conducting a review of states annually for corrective actions.

### ICR for the Proposed RTCR June 2010

17 

## EPA plans to modify its existi ng data verification process to:

 Include the number of PW Ss with discrepancies;

 Include onsite verification in states and PWSs, if necessary, every 2 to 3 years;

 Train states on data verifi cation procedures so they can conduct self-audits;

 Include timeliness reviews;

 Incorporate proposed RTCR-related activit ies into EPA Regional quarterly/annual

reviews; and

 Include a regional check with states within six months of the previous data verification.

SDWIS runs on an IBM ES9000 12 way processor using mainframe edit programs (in

JCL). EPA defines information requirements and stat es update the data in batch file mode in a

pre-defined format. The public may access the violat ions data in SDWIS through the Internet at

http://www.epa.gov/enviro/html/sdwis/sdwis_query.html

.

5(c) Small Entity Flexibility

In developing this ICR (and for the subse quent renewal of the Microbial Rules ICR and

PWSS ICR), EPA considered the requirement of the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement

Fairness Act (SBREFA) to minimize the burden of information collections on small entities.

EPA considers small entities to be PWSs serving fewer than 10,000 people (63 FR 44524,

August 19, 1998).

The proposed RTCR will have the greatest im pact on small PWSs. Under the Regulatory

Flexibility Act (RFA), 5 U.S.C. 601 et seq., as amended by SBREFA, EPA generally is required

to conduct a regulatory flexibility analysis that describes the impact of a regulatory action on

small entities. To assess this impact, EPA conduc ted outreach to small entities and convened a

Small Business Advocacy Review Panel (SBA RP) in February 2008 to obtain advice and

recommendations of representatives of the small en tities that potentially w ould be subject to the

proposed rule’s requiremen ts. These recommendations are discussed below.

5(c)(i) Small Business Advocacy Review Panel Recommendations

The Panel recommended to use total coliforms as a trigger for investigation and/or

corrective action, to balance monito ring requirements and costs with risk, to further differentiate

requirements with other related rules, and to consider reportin g and recordkeeping costs in

estimating burden.

EPA considered the Panel’s recommendations in developing the proposed RTCR. The

proposed RTCR eliminates the MCLG and MCL fo r total coliforms and instead uses total

coliforms as an indicator of the potential pathwa y of contamination into the distribution system.

PWSs that may be vulnerable to fecal contamina tion (as indicated by their monitoring results)

### ICR for the Proposed RTCR June 2010

18 

## are required to do an assessment and if necessary , appropriate corrective action. Other provisions

of the proposed RTCR also result in reduced costs for many small PWSs and address the

recommendations of the Panel mentione d previously. These provisions include:

 Reduced routine monitoring for qualifying PWS serving 1,000 persons or fewer.

 Reduced number of repeat samples required.

 Reduced additional routine monitoring for PWS serving 4,100 or fewer people.

 Reduced public notification requirements fo r all systems, including small systems.

 Reductions in corrective actions over time as a result of enhanced system performance

for all small systems.

Furthermore, consistent with the Panel reco mmendation to evaluate which parameters are

most appropriate for routine monitoring and as po tential triggers for investigative and corrective

actions, EPA is conducting a review of existing models for total coliform and E. coli analysis and

is evaluating its Alternative Test Procedure pr otocol for approving new methods. EPA is also

one of the founding members of a Research In formation Collection Partnership that is

considering research and information needs to ev aluate potential indicators of distribution system

contamination.

5(d) Collection Schedule

The RTCR is scheduled to be promulgated in 2012, with monitoring beginning 3 years

after promulgation. Figure 4.1 illustrates the info rmation collection periods for compliance with

the proposed RTCR over the first 10 years following rule promulgation.

# 6 ESTIMATING BURDEN A ND COST OF COLLECTION

The following sections discuss costs a nd burden for all information collection,

recordkeeping, and reporting requi rements for the proposed RTCR.

6(a) Estimating Respo ndent Burden and Cost

The following sections discuss the costs and burden faced by PWSs and states. Note that

the majority of the monitoring, recordkeepi ng, and reporting burden occurs beyond the 3-year

period of the ICR. Exhibits A.34 and A.37, located in Appendix A, include a ten-year time frame

showing the burden and costs beyon d the initial period covered by the ICR. This reflects the

reality of rule implementation. Figure 6.1 pres ents a summary of estimated responses, burden,

and costs for the 3-year window of the ICR.

## 6(a)(i) Burden and Cost to PWSs

Information collection activi ties of PWSs required under the proposed RTCR will result

in average annual net change national labor costs of $20.2 million and a corresponding annual

net change burden of 747,848 person-hours as shown in Figure 6.1 and in Exhibits A.34 and

A.37. The exhibits also include a nnual net change costs and burde n up to 10 years following rule

promulgation.

The net change burden and costs are estima ted for start-up activities, including reading

the rule and training staff. The assumptions an d methodologies used in deriving these estimates

are discussed in the following section.

### ICR for the Proposed RTCR June 2010

20 

## 6(a)(i)(a) Start-Up Activities

Start-up activities are estimated at a one -time expense of $60.5 million (Exhibit A.37)

and 2.2 million burden hours (Exhibits A.34). Start-up activities include reading the final rule to

become familiar with the requirements and perf orming additional or transitional implementation

activities such as training staff to on rule re quirements. Additionally, all PWSs will incur onetime costs to revise existing sampling plans to identify sampling locations and collection

schedules that are representative of wa ter throughout the dist ribution system.

For costing purposes, EPA estimates the labor needs and hourly labor rates of PWSs and

states for two labor categories: managerial and t echnical. For PWSs, all analyses use labor rates

presented in EPA’s document, Labor Costs for National Drinking Water Rules 5 

## . The technical

and managerial wage rates vary with PWS size and include fringe benefits. To account for the

general composition of staff at PWSs of sma ller sizes (e.g., PWSs serving 3,300 or fewer), EPA

uses only the technical rate. For PWSs serving more than 3,300 people, EPA uses a ratio of 80

percent technical labor to 20 percen t managerial labor to arrive at a labor cost, or weighted labor

rate. A full description of the derivation of the labor rates used is provided in the Technology and

Cost Document for the Proposed Revised Total Coliform Rule 6 

## . The weighted labor rates ($2007)

are shown in Exhibit A.1.

6(a)(i)(b) Annual Activities

In the tenth year of rule implementation, a net savings of $1.5 m illion (Exhibit A.37) and

0.09 million burden hours (Exhibit A.34) is expected for annual PWS activity costs and burden,

respectively. Included in this ca tegory are costs and burden to re vise sampling plans; to conduct

routine monitoring, additional rout ine monitoring, and repeat monito ring; to perform Level 1 and

Level 2 assessments; to perform reporting and recordkeeping relate d to corrective actions; and to

provide public notification. The net change cost and burden estimates fo r PWS annual activities

are shown in Exhibits A.34 and A.37. These net ch ange costs are for data collection and review

and will occur outside of the three years covered by this ICR.

6(a)(ii) Burden and Cost to States

Total annual average net change state labor cost is $3.6 million, and the annual average

net change burden is 91,678 hours for th e three years covered by this ICR.

6(a)(ii)(a) Start-Up Activities

States are estimated to incur a one-time co st of $10.8 million (Exhibit A.37) and a onetime burden of 275,033 hours (Exhibit A.34). For stat es, the administrative and field engineer

labor rates from the 2001 State Drinking Water Needs Analysis 7

## Economic Analysis (EA) (as used in the Ground Water Rule (GWR) EA 8 

## ). These rates include a

60 percent overhead rate and were inflated to 2007$ using the Employee Cost Index (ECI). The

state labor rates in 2007$ are $39.22 for an administrative state employee and $43.58 for a state

field engineer. EPA assumes that the state field engineer woul d conduct annual site visits, and

the administrative state employee would work with PWSs on all remaining aspects of the

proposed RTCR. Because this separation between field engineer and administrative employee is

used, the 80/20 weighting ratio between technical and managerial rates is not used to develop

state costs.

6(a)(ii)(b) Annual Activities

In the tenth year after pr omulgation, a net savings of $0.54 million (Exhibit A.37) and

0.01 million burden hours (Exhibit A.34) is expected annually for states to respond to positive

sample results; to review completed assessment forms required to be filed by PWSs and consult

with PWSs about their assessment form; to review and coordinate with PWSs to determine the

appropriate corrective action to be implemented; and to provide consultation, review the public

notification certification, and file the report of the violation. States must also submit information

to SDWIS to assist both EPA a nd states in tracking PWS comp liance (see Exhibits A.34 and

A.37).

State net change costs and burden for activ ities occurring outside of the 3-year ICR

window are calculated in the same way as st ate net change start- up costs and burden. The

administrative state employee labor rate is used for all rule activities under the proposed RTCR.

6(b) Time Frame for Cost and Burden Estimates

To provide a coherent unders tanding of how the burden for the rule will occur, the time

frame for rule implementation is described below.

In the first 3 years, EPA has estimated that states will adopt regulations for transitional

implementation of the proposed RTCR and will a pply for program primacy approval, and that

states and PWSs will conduct transitional start-up activities for implementing the proposed

RTCR, such as training, and data ma nagement system modifications.

States are expected to incur one-time cost s to review sampling plans and recommend any

revisions to PWSs. PWSs are expected to revi se sampling plans before monitoring begins. For

modeling purposes costs are split between y ears 2 and 3 of the 25-year compliance period

(monitoring is required starting in year 4).

Beginning in the fourth year following promulgation, PWSs would begin routine,

additional routine, and repeat monitoring. A dditionally, EPA expects that, beginning in the

fourth year, PWSs would be re quired to correct sanitary def ects found through the performance

of Level 1 or Level 2 assessments. Reporting an d recordkeeping burden from corrective actions

resulting from Level 1 and Level 2 assessments would also begin in the fourth year following

promulgation. For each corrective action perfor med, states would incur recordkeeping and

### ICR for the Proposed RTCR June 2010

22 

## reporting burden to review and coordinate wi th PWSs. Revised public notification activities

would also begin in the fourth year following promulgation.

6(c) Estimating EPA Burden and Cost

EPA’s costs include those incurred by both re gional offices and hea dquarters to process,

analyze, and maintain SDWIS data. These costs cannot be derived on a per rule basis but are

presented as an overall program cost in the PWSS Program ICR. Headquarters personnel who

design and administer SDWIS belie ve that the net additional cost of the regulations proposed

here is not significantly greater than that of the PWSS Program.

The EPA also performs the role attributed to states and territories, for those states and

territories over which it has primacy. This cost is included as part of the to tal burden and cost for

states.

6(d) Respondent Universe

There are a total of 154,837 PWSs and 57 states and territories considered for this ICR.

6(e) Bottom Line Burden Hours and Costs

This section provides a description of botto m line estimates for implementation of the

proposed RTCR. The bottom line net change burden hours and costs for PWSs and states are the

summaries of the hours and cost s collectively incurre d for all additional activities under the

proposed RTCR in comparison to the current TCR. The first part of this section describes the

estimated average annual net cha nge costs and hourly burdens fo r respondents to the rule. The

second part discusses the potenti al net change cost and burden to EPA. Figure 6.2 presents a

summary of the average annual net change resp ondent burden over three years for PWSs and

states. All additional exhibits relati ng to this ICR are in Appendix A.

## 6(e)(i) Bottom Line Burden and Cost Estimates for Respondents

For this ICR, EPA estimates that PWSs will have an annual net change respondent

burden of 747,848 hours and an annual net ch ange respondent costs of $20.2 million. EPA

estimates that states will have an annual net change respondent burden of 91,678 hours and a

### ICR for the Proposed RTCR June 2010

24 

## corresponding average annual net change responde nt costs of $3.6 million. Therefore, the total

average annual net change respondent burden is estimated to be 839,526 burden hours and the

corresponding total average annua l net change respondent labor costs are estimated to be $23.8

million. See Figure 6.2. There are neither capital costs nor O&M costs during the 3-year ICR

period.

6(e)(ii) Bottom Line Estimate for EPA

As mentioned previously in Section 6c, the costs and burden incurred by EPA to process,

analyze, and maintain SDWIS are presented as part of the PWSS Program ICR. Additional costs

that are likely to be incurred by EPA for tribes and the state of Wyoming are included in the tally

for the costs and burden to states and territories because most costs are estimated on a per system

basis and because the number of PWSs on trib al land or in Wyoming affected by various

provisions of the rule is uncertain.

6(f) Reasons for Change in Burden

The primary goal of the proposed RTCR is to achieve the objectives of the 1989 TCR

more effectively and efficiently, taking into ac count the changes in re gulatory framework for

implementing the SDWA over the past 20 years and experience with the TCR since it was

promulgated in 1989. National burden estimates increase primarily because PWS requirements

are being strengthened under the proposed RTCR.

6(g) Burden Statement

The annual net change public reporting and recordkeeping bu rden for this collection of

information is estimated to average 14.5 hour s per PWS respondent per year and 1608.4 hours

per state respondent per year for the 3-year ICR period. 9



## Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by people to

generate, maintain, retain, disclo se, or provide information to or for a Federal Agency. This

includes the time needed to revi ew instructions; develop, acquire , install, and utilize technology,

and PWSs for the purposes of collecting, validat ing, and verifying information, processing and

maintaining information, and disclosing and providi ng information; adjust the existing ways to

comply with any previously applicable instructio ns and requirements; train personnel to be able

to respond to a collection of info rmation; search data sources; co mplete and review the collection

of information; and transmit or otherwise disc lose the information. An agency may not conduct

or sponsor, and a person is not required to res pond to, a request for info rmation collection unless

it displays a currently vali d OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA’s

regulations are listed in 40 CF R Part 9 and 48 CFR Chapter 15.

To comment on EPA's need for this information, the accuracy of the provided burden

estimates, and any suggested methods for mini mizing respondent burden, including the use of

automated collection techniques, EPA has establis hed a public docket for this ICR under Docket

ID Number EPA-HQ-OW-2008-0878, which is available for online viewing at

### The average burden hours were calculated by dividing the annual burden hours (from Figure 6.1) by the

annual number of respondents (from Figure 6.2), e.g., for PWSs, 747,848 ÷51,612 =.14.5.
