Federal Register Notice Soliciting Comments on Information Collection Requests

# 39092 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 128 / Tuesday, July 5, 2011 / Notices

Abstract: Source Compliance and State Action Reporting is an activity whereby State, District, Local, and Commonwealth governments (hereafter referred to as either ‘‘states/locals’’ or ‘‘state and local agencies’’) make air compliance and enforcement information available to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA or the Agency) on a cyclic basis via input to the Air Facility System (AFS). The information provided to EPA includes compliance activities and determinations, and enforcement activities. EPA uses this information to assess progress toward meeting emission requirements developed under the authority of the Clean Air Act (CAA or the Act) to protect and maintain the atmospheric environment and the public health. The EPA and many of the state and local agencies access the data in AFS to assist them in the management of their air pollution control programs. This renewal information collection request (ICR) affects oversight of approximately 39,005 stationary sources by 99 state and local agencies and the Federal EPA. On average, the burden imposed by this collection amounts to approximately one-tenth of a full-time equivalent employee for each small state and local agency, one-fourth of a full-time equivalent employee for each medium sized state and local agency and one and one-tenth of a full-time equivalent employee for each large sized state and local agency for national reporting of compliance and enforcement related data under all of the applicable Clean Air Act programs.

Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 92 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: State and Local Agencies. Estimated Number of Respondents:

99.

Frequency of Response: Every 60 days.

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:
54,384.

Estimated Total Annual Cost: $2,843,187 in labor costs. There are no capital or O&M costs.

Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease of 18,689 hours in the total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR Burdens. This decrease is due to a continuing decrease in the number of major sources in the reportable universe and a reported decrease of time and resources available for use in data management by small and medium sized agencies.

Dated: June 28, 2011. Joseph A. Sierra, Acting Director, Collection Strategies
Division.

What information is EPA particularly interested in?

Pursuant to section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA, EPA specifically solicits 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. In particular, EPA is requesting comments from small public water systems (those that serve less than 10,000 customers) on examples of specific additional efforts that EPA could make to reduce the paperwork burden for small public water systems affected by this collection. The small public water systems include community watersystems, and non-transient noncommunity water systems such as schools and hospitals, in addition to transient non-community water systems such as restaurants and campgrounds.
What should I consider when I prepare my comments for EPA?

You may find the following suggestions helpful for preparing your

comments:

1. Explain your views as clearly as possible and provide specific examples.

2. Describe any assumptions that you used.

3. Provide copies of any technical information and/or data you used that support your views.

4. If you estimate potential burden or costs, explain how you arrived at the estimate that you provide.

5. Offer alternative ways to improve the collection activity.

6. Make sure to submit your comments by the deadline identified under DATES.

7. To ensure proper receipt by EPA, be sure to identify the docket ID number assigned to this action in the subject line on the first page of your response. You may also provide the name, date, and Federal Register citation.
What information collection activity or ICR does this apply to?

Docket ID No. EPA–HQ–OW–2011–

0439.

Affected entities: Entities potentially affected by this action are new and existing public water systems (PWS), primacy agencies, and EPA.

Title: Disinfectants/Disinfection Byproducts, Chemical, and Radionuclides Rules (Renewal).

ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 1896.09, OMB Control No. 2040–0204.

ICR status: This ICR is currently scheduled to expire on December 31, 2011. 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 CFR, 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 Disinfectants/ Disinfection Byproducts, Chemical and Radionuclides Rules ICR examines PWS, primacy agency and EPA burden and costs for recordkeeping and reporting requirements in support of the chemical drinking water regulations. These recordkeeping and reporting requirements are mandatory for compliance with 40 CFR parts 141 and 142. The following chemical regulations are included: Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule (Stage 1 DBPR), Stage 2 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule (Stage 2 DBPR), Chemical Phase Rules (Phases II/IIB/V), 1976 Radionuclides Rule and 2000 Radionuclides Rule, Total Trihalomethanes (TTHM) Rule, Disinfectant Residual Monitoring and Associated Activities under the Surface Water Treatment Rule, Arsenic Rule, Lead and Copper Rule (LCR) and revisions. Future chemical-related rulemakings will be added to this consolidated ICR after the regulationsare finalized and the initial, rulespecific, ICRs are due to expire.

Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 0.40 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.

The ICR provides a detailed explanation of the Agency’s estimate, which is only briefly summarized here:

Estimated total number of potential respondents: 246,048.

Frequency of response: varies by requirement ( i.e., on occasion, monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, annually, biennially, and every 3, 6, and 9 years).


# 39094 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 128 / Tuesday, July 5, 2011 / Notices

Estimated total average number of responses for each respondent: varies by requirement.

Estimated total annual burden hours: 6,987,131 hours.

Estimated total annualized capital/ startup costs: $6,918,000.

Estimated total annual maintenance and operational costs: $203,672,204.
Are there changes in the estimates from the last approval?

There is no estimated increase or decrease of hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with that identified in the ICR currently approved by OMB.
What information collection activity or ICR does this apply to?

Docket ID No. EPA–HQ–OW–2011–

0442.

Affected entities: Entities potentially affected by this action are new and existing public water systems (PWS), primacy agencies, and EPA.

Title: Microbial Rules (Renewal). ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 1895.07, OMB Control No. 2040–0205

ICR status: This ICR is currently scheduled to expire on April 30, 2012. 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 CFR, 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 Microbial Rules Renewal ICR examines PWS, primacy agency and EPA burden and costs for recordkeeping and reporting requirements in support of the microbial drinking water regulations. These recordkeeping and reporting requirements are mandatory for compliance with 40 CFR parts 141 and 142. The following microbial regulations are included: Surface Water Treatment Rule (SWTR), Total Coliform Rule (TCR), Interim Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule (IESWTR), Filter Backwash Recycling Rule (FBRR), Long Term 1 Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule (LT1ESWTR), Long Term 2 Enhanced Surface Water Treatment Rule (LT2ESWTR), Ground Water Rule, and the Aircraft Drinking Water Rule. Although the Aircraft Drinking Water Rule has a stand-alone ICR at this time, it is being included into the Microbial ICR due to the nature of information collected. The information collected for the Aircraft Drinking Water Rule is directly correlated to information collected under the Total Coliform Rule, and therefore is appropriate to be included in the Microbial ICR. Future microbial-related rulemakings will be added to this consolidated ICR after the regulationsare finalized and the initial, rulespecific, ICRs are due to expire.

Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 0.79 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.

The ICR provides a detailed explanation of the Agency’s estimate, which is only briefly summarized here:

Estimated total number of potential respondents: 161,337.

Frequency of response: Varies by requirement ( i.e., on occasion, monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, and annually.

Estimated total average number of responses for each respondent: 72.

Estimated total annual burden hours: 9,172,188 hours.

Estimated total annualized capital/ startup costs: $32,888,601.

Estimated total annual maintenance and operational costs: $88,222,000.
Are there changes in the estimates from the last approval?

There is an increase of 17,583 hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with that identified in the ICR currently approved by OMB. This increase reflects EPA’s inclusion of the information collection requirements of the Aircraft Drinking Water Rule, which was previously a stand-alone
ICR. What information collection activity or ICR does this apply to?

Docket ID No. EPA–HQ–OW–2011–

0443.

Affected entities: Entities potentially affected by this action are new and existing public water systems (PWS), primacy agencies, and EPA.

Title: Public Water System Supervision Program (Renewal).

ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 0270.45, OMB Control No. 2040–0090.

ICR status: This ICR is currently scheduled to expire on March 31, 2012. 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 CFR, 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 PWS, primacy agency, EPA, and tribal operator certificationprovider burden and costs for ‘‘crosscutting’’ 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 Studies for Drinking Water Laboratories. The information collection activities for both the Operator Certification/Expense Reimbursement Program and the Capacity Development Program are driven by the grant withholding and reporting provisions under Sections 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.

(A-C, E-G, I, K-L, O) SDWIS FY 2010 October.

(I) Assumes 5 % of IESWTR and LT1 violations for 'Treatment Technique Exceeds Turb 1 NTU' are elevated to Tier 1 and 95% remai n in Tier 2, based on EPA estimate. (D) Compliance data for the Stage 2 DBPR are not yet available. EPA therefore made a conservative assumption that the number of Stage 2 violations was equal to the predicted number of operational evaluations from Exhibit 14 of the Stage 2 DBPR ICR model (only CWSs are assumed to undergo these evaluations).

(O) Tier 3 violations elevated to Tier 2 (5% of all M/R violations) based on EPA estimate (carried forward from previous ICR).

Detail may not add to totals due to rounding. (H) Assumes 5% of SWTR TT violations (vcode 41) are elevated to Tier 1 and 95% remain in Tier 2, based on EPA estimate.

(N) Includes failure to take corrective action and failure to maintain 4-log inactivation when required to do so. From Exhibit 6. (J) Compliance data for the LT2ESWTR are not yet available. EPA therefore estimated the number of LT2 violations based on the number of plants installing treatment in the LT2ESWTR ICR and 2010 violation rates for the SWTR, IESWTR, and LT1ESTWR.

Violation Data System Data

Total for All Systems System Category

(L) From Exhibit 6. TNCWS Derivation of Annual Tier 3 Violation Estimates for Existing Rules

Subtotal

(D) Compliance data for the LT2ESWTR are not yet available. EPA therefore estimated the number of LT2 violations based on the number of plants installing treatment in the LT2ESWTR ICR and 2010 violation rates for the SWTR, IESWTR, and LT1ESTWR.
(F) Compliance monitoring violation data for Stage 2 DBPR are not yet available. EPA therefore assumes that the number of monit oring violations will be equal to the number of monitoring violations associated with the initial distribution system evaluatio n for FY 2010 according to SDWIS (note that the initial distribution system evaluation is now complete) .

(O) Burden for distributing notice of Tier 3 violations is calculated on a per-system basis since multiple violations at one sy stem are likely to be reported in a single report. Note that this number may be an overestimate, as SDWIS does not adjust its c ount for systems
that have violations of more than one rule. CWS

No data were available on systems with fluoride SMCL exceedances or systems required to report availability of unregulated con taminant monitoring results. These systems are assumed to be included in systems with Tier 3 violations. (A-C, E, G-K, O) SDWIS FY 2010 October. NTNCWS

Detail may not add to totals due to rounding. (N) Tier 3 violations elevated to Tier 2 (5% of all M/R violations) based on EPA estimate (carried forward from previous ICR).

Tier 3 response rate uses number of systems in violation rather than number of violations. Note: Detail may not add to totals due to rounding.

To account for cases where systems will not be able to use the CCR template and additional burden will be incurred by systems, assume 50% of systems use CCR (1 hrs burden) and 50% of systems are not able to use the template (3 hrs burden).
