Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 49 / Tuesday, March 13, 2012 / Notices 14779 

ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 

1130.10, OMB Control Number 2060– 

0082. 

ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to 

expire on April 30, 2012. Under OMB 

regulations, the Agency may continue to 

conduct or sponsor the collection of 

information while this submission is 

pending at OMB. 

Abstract: The New Source 

Performance Standards (NSPS) for Grain 

Elevators were proposed on January 18, 

1977 (40 CFR part 60, subpart DD), 

promulgated on August 3, 1978, and 

amended on October 17, 2000 (65 FR 

61759). These standards apply to each 

affected facility at any grain terminal 

elevator or any grain storage elevator. 

The facilities are each truck unloading 

station, truck loading station, barge and 

ship loading station, railcar loading 

station, railcar unloading station, grain 

dryer and all grain handling operations 

that commenced construction, 

modification or reconstruction after 

August 3, 1978. 

Owners or operators of the affected 

facilities must make a one-time-only 

report of the date of construction or 

reconstruction, notification of the actual 

date of startup, notification of any 

physical or operational change to 

existing facility that may increase the 

rate of emission of the regulated 

pollutant, notification of initial 

performance test; and results of initial 

performance test. Owners or operators 

are also required to maintain records of 

the occurrence and duration of any 

startup, shutdown, or malfunction, or 

any period during which the monitoring 

system is inoperative. Performance tests 

are the Agency’s records of a source’s 

initial capability to comply with 

emissions standards and not the 

operating conditions under which 

compliance was to achieve. An annual 

summary report is also required. 

All reports are sent to the delegated 

state or local authority. In the event that 

there is no such delegated authority, the 

reports are sent directly to the EPA 

regional office. This information is 

being collected to assure compliance 

with 40 CFR part 60, subpart DD, as 

authorized in section 112 and 114(a) of 

the Clean Air Act. The required 

information consists of emissions data 

and other information that have been 

determined to be private. 

An agency may not conduct or 

sponsor, and a person is not required to 

respond to, a collection of information 

unless it displays a currently valid OMB 

Control Number. The OMB Control 

Number for the EPA regulations are 

listed in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR 

chapter 15, and are identified on the 

form and/or instrument, if applicable. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information estimated 

to average 10 hours per response. 

Burden means the total time, effort, or 

financial resources expended by persons 

to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose 

and provide information to or for a 

Federal agency. This includes the time 

needed to review instructions; develop, 

acquire, install, and utilize technology 

and systems for the purposes of 

collecting, validating, and verifying 

information; processing and 

maintaining information; and disclosing 

and providing information. All existing 

ways will have to adjust to comply with 

any previously applicable instructions 

and requirements that have 

subsequently changed; train personnel 

to be able to respond to a collection of 

information; search data sources; 

complete and review the collection of 

information; and transmit or otherwise 

disclose the information. 

Respondents/Affected Entities: 

Owners and operators of grain elevators. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

200. 

Frequency of Response: Occasionally, 

initially and annually. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

2,070. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: 

$198,346, which includes $198,346 in 

labor costs, no capital/startup costs and 

no operation and maintenance (O&M) 

costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is no 

change in the labor hours in this ICR 

compared to the previous ICR. This is 

due to two considerations: (1) The 

regulations have not changed over the 

past three years and are not anticipated 

to change over the next three years; and 

(2) the growth rate for the industry is 

very low, negative or non-existent, so 

there is no significant change in the 

overall burden. However, there is an 

increase in the total labor and Agency 

costs as currently identified in the OMB 

Inventory of Approved Burdens. This 

increase is not due to any program 

changes. The change in cost estimates 

reflects updated labors rates available 

from the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Title: Public Water System 

Supervision Program (Renewal) 

ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 0270.45, 

OMB Control No. 2040–0090 

ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to 

expire on March 31, 2012. Under OMB 

regulations, the Agency may continue to 

conduct or sponsor the collection of 

information while this submission is 

pending at OMB. An Agency may not 

conduct or sponsor, and a person is not 

required to respond to, a collection of 

information, unless it displays a 

currently valid OMB control number. 

The OMB control numbers for EPA’s 

regulations in title 40 of the Code of 

Federal Regulations, after appearing in 

the Federal Register when approved, 

are listed in 40 CFR part 9, are 

displayed either by publication in the 

Federal Register or by other appropriate 

means, such as on the related collection 

instrument or form, if applicable. The 

display of OMB control numbers in 

certain EPA regulations is consolidated 

in 40 CFR part 9. 

Abstract: The Public Water System 

Supervision (PWSS) Program Renewal 

ICR examines public water system, 

primacy agency, EPA, and tribal 

operator certification provider burden 

and costs for ‘‘cross-cutting’’ 

recordkeeping and reporting 

requirements (i.e., the burden and costs 

for complying with drinking water 

information requirements that are not 

associated with contaminant-specific 

rulemakings). These activities which 

have record keeping and reporting 

requirements that are mandatory for 

compliance with 40 CFR parts 141 and 

142 include the following: Consumer 

Confidence Reports (CCRs), Primacy 

Regulation Activities, Variance and 

Exemption Rule (V/E Rule), General 

State Primacy Activities, Public 

Notification (PN) and Proficiency 

Testing (PT) Studies for Drinking Water 

Laboratories. The information collection 

activities for both the Operator 

Certification/Expense Reimbursement 

Grant Program and the Capacity 

Development Program are driven by the 

grant withholding and reporting 

provisions under § 1419 and § 1420, 

respectively, of the Safe Drinking Water 

Act. Although the Tribal Operator 

Certification Program is voluntary, the 

information collection is driven by grant 

eligibility requirements outlined in the 

Drinking Water Infrastructure Grant 

Tribal Set-Aside Program Final 

Guidelines and the Tribal Drinking 

Water Operator Certification Program 

Guidelines. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 4.06 hours per 

response. Burden means the total time, 

effort, or financial resources expended 

by persons to generate, maintain, retain, 

or disclose or provide information to or 

for a Federal agency. This includes the 

time needed to review instructions; 

develop, acquire, install, and utilize 

technology and systems for the purposes 

of collecting, validating, and verifying 

information, processing and 

maintaining information, and disclosing 

and providing information; adjust the 

existing ways to comply with any 

previously applicable instructions and 

requirements which have subsequently 

changed; train personnel to be able to 

respond to a collection of information; 

search data sources; complete and 

review the collection of information; 

and transmit or otherwise disclose the 

information. 

Respondents/Affected Entities: 

Owners/operators of public water 

systems who must report to the primacy 

agency. Primacy agencies, which 

include States, Tribes (if they have been 

authorized to act as primacy agencies), 

and EPA Regions that act as primacy 

agencies in Indian country and States 

that do not have primacy. Laboratories 

conducting PT to achieve state 

certification, which permits them to 

analyze samples for compliance with 

National Primary Drinking Water 

Regulations (NPDWRs). (PT vendors are 

not considered respondents because 

they are paid for their incurred burden 

and costs via the prices that laboratories 

pay for the PT standards.) 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

154,938. 

Frequency of Response: Varies by 

requirement (i.e., on occasion, monthly, 

quarterly, semi-annually, annually, 

biennially, and every 3, 6, and 9 years). 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

4,113,408. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: 

$187,647,000, which includes 

$40,019,000 in capital and operating & 

maintenance (O&M) costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is an 

increase of 199,864 hours in the total 

estimated burden currently identified in 

the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR 

Burdens. This increase is due primarily 

to consultations with respondents 

which yielded more accurate estimates 

of the burden for various activities. 

These were partially offset by burden 

decreases from a smaller respondent 

universe and reduced reporting due to 

a new enforcement tracking system and 

the discontinuation of a grant program.
