    Abstract: EPA would like to continue collecting notifications from 
gasoline retailers and wholesale purchaser-consumer related to 
commingling of ethanol blended and non-ethanol blended reformulated 
gasoline. The test results will allow EPA to monitor compliance with 
the Reformulated Gasoline Commingling Provisions. We inform respondents 
that they may assert claims of business confidentiality (CBI) for 
information they submit in accordance with 40 CFR part 2.203.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Gasoline stations, Gasoline stations 
with convenience stores, Gasoline stations without convenience stores.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory under the Clean Air 
Act (CAA), 42 U.S.C. Sec. Sec.  7414 and 7542.
    Estimated number of respondents: 43,050.
    Frequency of response: Annually.
    Total estimated burden: 21,013 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.03(b).
    Total estimated cost: $357,221 (per year), includes $0 annualized 
capital or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in Estimates: The change in burden from the prior ICR is 
due in part to better numbers extracted from business and industry 
economic statistics that assisted in calculating the numbers of 
respondents. These better numbers reduced the party size by 13,650 
members. The number of responses also declined from 110,700 to 84,050 a 
difference of 26,650 reports, which reduced the industry burden hours 
from 27,675 to 21,013. We also found that the original cost per 
response was overstated by a factor of 2. With the decline of 
respondents, burden hours and responses, and revision of the cost per 
response, the cost associated with this ICR is $357,221, a difference 
of
