with a tribe for the implementation of apermit 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.

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.
