information collection request (ICR), ``Identification of Non-Hazardous 
Secondary Materials That Are Solid Waste (Renewal)'' (EPA ICR No. 
2382.04, OMB Control No. 2050-0205) to the Office of Management and 
Budget (OMB) for review and approval in accordance with the Paperwork

    Abstract: On March 21, 2011, EPA finalized standards and procedures 
to be used to identify whether non-hazardous secondary materials are 
solid wastes when used as fuels or ingredients in combustion units. 
``Secondary material'' is defined as any material that is not the 
primary product of a manufacturing or commercial process, and can 
include post-consumer material, off-specification commercial chemical 
products or manufacturing chemical intermediates, post-industrial 
material, and scrap (codified in Sec.  241.2). ``Non-hazardous 
secondary material'' is a secondary material that, when discarded, 
would not be identified as a hazardous waste under 40 CFR part 261 
(codified in Sec.  241.2). This RCRA solid waste definition determines 
whether a combustion unit is required to meet the emissions standards 
for solid waste incineration units issued under section 129 of the 
Clean Air Act (CAA) or the emissions standards for commercial, 
industrial, and institutional boilers issued under section 112 of the 
CAA. In this rule, EPA also finalized a definition of traditional 
fuels.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Private solid waste facilities.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Required to obtain benefit 
(Sections 1004 and 2002 of RCRA).
    Estimated number of respondents: 1,471 (total).
    Frequency of response: One-time.
    Total estimated burden: 984 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 
5 CFR 1320.03(b).
    Total estimated cost: $108,068 (per year), which includes $1,343 
annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease of 25,467 hours in 
the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently 
approved by OMB. This decrease is due to a revised estimate of the 
number of petitions expected to be submitted by the respondents.
