ACTION: Notice of availability for public 

comment. 

SUMMARY: This notice announces the 

availability of the Draft Guidance for 

Munitions and Explosive of Concern 

Hazard Assessment (Guidance) for 

public comment. The Guidance was 

jointly developed by the Environmental 

Protection Agency (EPA), Department of

Solid Waste Management Officials. The 

Guidance is available to support a 

recommended method for evaluating 

explosive safety hazards at military 

munitions response sites. It also 

presents approaches to support the 

evaluation of the effects of removal and 

remedial actions under the 

Comprehensive Environmental 

Restoration, Compensation, and 

Liability Act (CERCLA) regarding 

explosive hazards at munitions response 

sites. EPA is providing the public an 

opportunity to review and comment on 

the draft Guidance. The Guidance, 

comment form, and related materials 

can be found on EPA’s Web site at 

http://www.epa.gov/fedfac/documents/ 

hazard_assess_wrkgrp.htm. 

DATES: Comments must be received by 

March 23, 2007. 

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments to 

EPA using the comment form and 

instructions on our Web site at http://

Background 

In May 2004, EPA convened a 

technical working group (TWG) with 

personnel from the Department of 

Defense, the Department of the Interior, 

the Association of State and Territorial 

Solid Waste Management Officials, and 

the Tribal Association for Solid Waste 

and Emergency Response. The TWG 

was tasked with developing a 

recommended methodology to evaluate 

explosive safety hazards at munitions 

response sites. When finalized the 

methodology developed by the TWG 

and the work group organizations will 

be available to evaluate baseline 

explosive hazards at munitions response 

sites, and to evaluate the effects of 

removal or remedial actions under 

CERCLA, including changes to land use 

and land use activities. As part of this 

effort, the TWG developed additional 

information that can be found on the 

EPA Web site listed above. 

EPA is requesting public comment on 

the draft Guidance. An electronic 

comment form is posted on the same 

link as the draft Guidance. To be 

considered, all comments must be 

provided on this comment form and 

submitted to the email address provided 

on the form. 

After considering the comments, EPA, 

the Department of Defense, and the 

Department of the Interior will make 

available a final Munitions and 

Explosives of Concern Hazard 

Assessment document issued as joint 

guidance.

Proposed Agency Information 

Collection Activities; Comment 

Request; Correction 

This notice corrects a notice (FR Doc. 

E7–246) published on pages 1325 

through 1331 of the issue for Thursday, 

January 11, 2007. 

Under the Federal Reserve System 

heading, the entry for Proposed Agency 

Information Collection Activities; 

Comment Request, is revised to read as 

follows: 

AGENCY: Board of Governors of the 

Federal Reserve System 

SUMMARY: Background 

On June 15, 1984, the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) 

delegated to the Board of Governors of 

the Federal Reserve System (Board) its 

approval authority under the Paperwork 

Reduction Act, as per 5 CFR 1320.16, to 

approve of and assign OMB control 

numbers to collection of information 

requests and requirements conducted or 

sponsored by the Board under 

conditions set forth in 5 CFR 1320 

Appendix A.1. Board–approved 

collections of information are 

incorporated into the official OMB 

inventory of currently approved 

collections of information. Copies of the 

Paperwork Reduction Act Submission, 

supporting statements and approved 

collection of information instruments 

are placed into OMB’s public docket 

files. The Federal Reserve may not 

conduct or sponsor, and the respondent 

is not required to respond to, an 

information collection that has been 

extended, revised, or implemented on or 

after October 1, 1995, unless it displays 

a currently valid OMB control number. 

Request for comment on information 

collection proposals 

The following information 

collections, which are being handled 

under this delegated authority, have 

received initial Board approval and are 

hereby published for comment. At the 

end of the comment period, the 

proposed information collections, along 

with an analysis of comments and 

recommendations received, will be 

submitted to the Board for final 

approval under OMB delegated 

authority. Comments are invited on the 

following: 

a. Whether the proposed collections 

of information are necessary for the 

proper performance of the Federal 

Reserve’s functions; including whether 

the information has practical utility; 

b. The accuracy of the Federal 

Reserve’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed information collections,
