II. Background 

Cyanobacteria are naturally occurring 

organisms similar to algae. These 

organisms can occur in fresh water and 

may rapidly multiply causing ‘‘blooms’’ 

under favorable conditions. Conditions 

that enhance bloom formation and 

persistence include light intensity and 

duration, nutrient availability (such as 

nitrogen and phosphorus), water 

temperature, pH and water column 

stability. Some blooms produce 

cyanotoxins such as microcystin, 

cylindrospermopsin and anatoxin-a, 

which can be a health concern. For 

additional background information on 

cyanotoxins in drinking water, please go 

to: http://www2.epa.gov/sites/

production/files/2014-08/documents/

cyanobacteria_factsheet.pdf. 

EPA is developing health advisories 

for two cyanotoxins: microcystin and 

cylindrospermopsin. A health advisory 

is an estimate of acceptable drinking 

water levels for a contaminant based on 

health effects and other information, 

and also provides recommended 

analytical and treatment techniques. 

Health advisories are intended to assist 

federal, state, and local officials and 

public water system managers in 

achieving public health goals. A health 

advisory is not a legally enforceable 

standard under the Safe Drinking Water 

Act. 

The focus of this public meeting is to 

gather input on additional information 

the Agency can provide to states and 

public water systems to help them 

prepare for and respond to potential 

cyanotoxin health concerns in drinking 

water.

Abstract: As part of the Clean Air Act 

Amendments of 1990, the U.S. Congress 

required that each state establish a 

Small Business Stationary Source 

Technical and Environmental 

Compliance Assistance Program to 

assist small business in compliance 

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 about the 

program. Each state will submit 

requested information to EPA for 

compilation and summarization. This 

collection of information will assist the 

EPA Ombudsman with its requirement 

to monitor the effectiveness of small 

businesses as authorized 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: 6500–03. 

Respondents/affected entities: State 

and/or state appointed entities of the 

507 program. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Mandatory (section 507, parts (a), (d) 

and (e)). 

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: $112,106 (per 

year), includes $0 annualized capital or 

operation & maintenance costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is no 

change of hours in the total estimated 

respondent burden compared with the 

ICR currently approved by OMB.
