Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 226 / Monday, November 24, 1997 / Notices 62593

1,843 entities that add dye to low sulfur

non-taxed fuel. The frequency of

response is estimated to be about 170

loads of fuel released per year per

terminal. Total burden for all terminals

is about 87 hours per year. There are no

annual operating costs, purchased

service costs or capital costs.

Hourly burdens for truckers who

transport dyed low sulfur diesel fuel:

These parties transfer the CBP product

transfer documents, which is no change

from the business practice before the

rule’s requirement was promulgated.

There is no measurable hourly burden

per response. The proposed ICR

assumes that about 1,200 truckers haul

about 261 loads of non-taxed low sulfur

diesel fuel per year, and that the CBP

transfer documents that were used

before the diesel sulfur rule was

promulgated reflect the dyed status of

the diesel fuel. As a result, there are no

measurable additional operating costs,

purchased services or capital costs.

Hourly burdens for end users

(wholesale-purchaser-consumers of nontaxed low sulfur diesel fuel): These

parties receive the transfer documents

CBP. There is no measurable hourly

burden per response. The proposed ICR

assumes that about 20,000 end users

receive paperwork an average of about

15 times each. There are no measurable

operating costs, purchased services or

capital costs.

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; 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.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

AGENCY

[FRL–5926–4]

Clean Air Act Advisory Committee:

Accident Prevention Subcommittee

Meeting

AGENCY: Environmental Protection

Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice of meeting.

SUMMARY: The Clean Air Act section

112(r) required EPA to publish

regulations to prevent accidental

releases of chemicals and to reduce the

severity of those releases that do occur.

These accidental release prevention

requirements build on the chemical

safety work begun by the Emergency

Planning and Community Right-toKnow Act (EPCRA) which sets forth

requirements for industry, State and

local governments. On June 20, 1996,

EPA published the final rule for risk

management programs to address

prevention of accidental releases.

An estimated 66,000 facilities are

subject to this regulation based on the

quantity of regulated substances they

have on-site. Facilities that are subject

will be required to implement a risk

management program at their facility,

and submit a summary of this

information to a central location

specified by EPA. This information will

be helpful to State and local government

entities responsible for chemical

emergency preparedness and

prevention. It will also be useful to

environmental and community

organizations, and the public in

understanding the chemical risks in

their communities. In addition, we hope

the availability of this information will

stimulate a dialogue between industry

and the public to improve accident

prevention and emergency response

practices.

The Accident Prevention

Subcommittee was created in September

1996 to advise EPA’s Chemical

Emergency Preparedness and

Prevention Office (CEPPO) on these

chemical accident prevention issues,

specifically, section 112(r) of the Clean

Air Act.

DATES: The Accident Prevention

Subcommittee of the Clean Air Act

Advisory Committee will hold a public

meeting on December 17, 1997 from

8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

ADDRESSES: The meeting will be held at

the Hall of States (Room 383) located at

444 North Capitol St., NW, Washington

D.C., near Union Station. Members of

the public are welcome to attend in
