with a tribe for the implementation of a 

permit program for non-municipal, nonhazardous waste disposal units that 

receive CESQG hazardous waste and/or 

MSWLFs on tribal lands. 

The EPA Administrator has delegated 

the authority to make determinations of 

adequacy, as contained in the statute, to 

the EPA Regional Administrator. The 

appropriate EPA Regional Office, 

therefore, will use the information 

provided by each state to determine 

whether the state’s permit program 

satisfies the statutory test reflected in 

the requirements of 40 CFR part 239. In 

all cases, the information will be 

analyzed to determine the adequacy of 

the state’s permit program for ensuring 

compliance with the federal revised 

criteria. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: Entities 

potentially affected by this action are 

States. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Mandatory (RCRA § 4005(c)). 

Estimated number of respondents: 12. 

Frequency of response: On occasion. 

Total estimated burden: 2,405 hours 

(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.03(b). 

Total estimated cost: $128,268 (per 

year) All costs are labor costs, there are 

no capital/start-up or O&M costs 

associated with this ICR. 

Changes in Estimates: There is no 

change of the 2,405 hours in the total 

estimated respondent burden compared 

to the ICR currently approved by OMB. 

This is a continuation of states revising 

or updating their state programs.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Supporting documents which explain in 

detail the information that the EPA will 

be collecting are available in the public 

docket for this ICR. The docket can be

Pursuant to section 3506(c)(2)(A) of 

the PRA, the 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. The 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, the 

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: In order for a State to obtain 

final authorization for a State hazardous 

waste program or to revise its previously 

authorized program, it must submit an 

official application to the EPA Regional 

office for approval. The purpose of the 

application is to enable the EPA to 

properly determine whether the State’s 

program meets the requirements of 

§ 3006 of RCRA. A State with an 

approved program may voluntarily 

transfer program responsibilities to EPA 

by notifying the EPA of the proposed 

transfer, as required by section 271.23. 

Further, the EPA may withdraw a 

State’s authorized program under 

section 271.23. 

State program revision may be 

necessary when the controlling Federal 

or State statutory or regulatory authority 

is modified or supplemented. In the 

event that the State is revising its 

program by adopting new Federal 

requirements, the State shall prepare 

and submit modified revisions of the 

program description, Attorney General’s 

statement, Memorandum of Agreement, 

or such other documents as the EPA 

determines to be necessary. The State 

shall inform the EPA of any proposed 

modifications to its basic statutory or 

regulatory authority in accordance with 

section 271.21. If a State is proposing to 

transfer all or any part of any program 

from the approved State agency to any 

other agency, it must notify the EPA in 

accordance with section 271.21 and 

submit revised organizational charts as 

required under section 271.6, in 

accordance with section 271.21. These 

paperwork requirements are mandatory 

under § 3006(a). The EPA will use the 

information submitted by the State in 

order to determine whether the State’s 

program meets the statutory and

Abstract: As part of the Clean Air Act 

Amendments of 1990, the U.S. Congress 

included, as part of section 507, the 

requirements that each state establish a 

Small Business Stationary Source 

Technical and Environmental 

Compliance Assistance Program to 

assist small businesses in complying 

with the Act. These programs are 

generally known as Small Business 

Environmental Assistance Programs 

(SBEAPs). EPA’s Small Business 

Ombudsman must oversee the overall 

507 program and be able to provide the 

Congress with periodical reports on the 

effectiveness, difficulties encountered 

and other relevant information on the 

program. Each state will submit 

requested information to EPA for 

compilation and summarization. This 

collection of information is mandatory 

under Section 507(a), (d) and (e) of the 

Clean Air Act as amended in 1990, 

Public Law 101–549, November 15, 

1990. Information that is collected is 

aggregated and is not of a confidential 

nature. None of the information 

collected by this action results in/or 

requests sensitive information of any 

nature from the states. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: State 

and/or state appointed entities of the 

507 program, usually college or 

university staff. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Mandatory under Section 507(a), (d) and 

(e) of the Clean Air Act as amended in 

1990, Public Law 101–549, November 

15, 1990. 

Estimated number of respondents: 53 

(total). 

Frequency of response: Annual. 

Total estimated burden: 2,120 hours 

(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.03(b) 

Total estimated cost: $ 104,664 (per 

year), includes $0 annualized capital or 

operation & maintenance costs. 

Changes in Estimates: There is no 

change in the total estimated respondent 

burden compared with the ICR currently 

approved by OMB. There is a possibility 

that the total estimated cost may 

increase slightly due to inflation prices 

and will be determined once final 

numbers are generated but generally 

speaking hours spent in responding to 

the data collection will not change.
