Public process and tribal 

consultation: EPA opened a 60-day 

public comment period that ended on 

October 10, 2017. In addition, EPA held 

public hearings during the week of 

September 11, 2017, to accept 

comments on the IPDES program 

application. The Response to Comments 

and Testimony compiles all comments 

and testimony submitted to EPA during 

the public comment period and 

provides EPA’s response to those 

comments available at EPA’s website. 

A total of 18 comment letters and 

testimonials were received during the 

comment period. Of those 18, 10 

commenters expressed support for the 

transfer of NPDES authority to IDEQ. 

One commenter expressed a general 

concern about IDEQ’s ability to 

adequately run a program that 

sufficiently protects the environment. 

The remaining 7 commenters provided 

specific comments about the IPDES 

program application or IPDES program. 

EPA provided responses to all 

comments. No comments resulted in 

changes to the IPDES program 

application as provided with the 

Federal Register document for the 

IPDES program application. 

EPA engaged with all five federallyrecognized Idaho tribes (ShoshoneBannock Tribe, Shoshone-Paiute Tribe, 

Nez Perce Tribe Council, Coeur d’Alene 

Tribe and the Kootenai Tribe) and two 

federally-recognized Eastern 

Washington tribes (Kalispell Tribe and 

Spokane Tribes). EPA participated in 

several meetings with the Tribes that 

were held before and after the public 

comment period. The primary outcome 

of the tribal meetings was the 

development of IDEQ’s IPDES Tribal 

Participation Process. This document 

establishes the process by which IDEQ 

will provide early notification of and 

participation in permit issuance 

activities with interested tribes, 

available at IDEQ’s website http://

www.deq.idaho.gov/media/60181337/ 

ipdes-tribal-participation-process.pdf. 

CROMERR: On October 13, 2005, the 

final Cross-Media Electronic Reporting 

Rule (CROMERR) was published in the 

Federal Register (70 FR 59848) and 

codified under 40 CFR part 3. 

CROMERR establishes electronic 

reporting as an acceptable regulatory 

alternative to paper reporting and 

establishes requirements to assure that 

electronic documents are as legally 

dependable as their paper counterparts. 

Per the requirements of 40 CFR 

3.2(b)(2), ‘‘A state, tribe, or local 

government that is applying for initial 

delegation, authorization, or approval to 

administer a federal program or a 

program in lieu of the federal program, 

and that will allow document 

submission requirements under the 

program to be satisfied with an 

electronic document, must use the 

procedures for obtaining delegation, 

authorization, or approval under the 

relevant part of Title 40 and may not use 

the procedures set forth in 40 CFR 

3.1000; but the application must contain 

the information required by 40 CFR 

3.1000(b)(1) and the state, tribe, or local 

government must meet the requirements 

of 40 CFR 3.2000.’’ 

IDEQ will implement the National 

Network Discharge Monitoring Report 

System (National NetDMR) and Shared 

CROMERR Services (SCS) electronic 

document receiving system in 

accordance with the application 

submitted by IDEQ to EPA on March 26, 

2018. The application anticipated 

concurrent approval with the State’s 40 

CFR part 123 (NPDES State Program 

Requirements) and part 403 (General 

Pretreatment Regulations for Existing 

and New Source of Pollution) programs 

to allow electronic reporting under 40 

CFR parts 122, 125, and 403–471. EPA 

has reviewed IDEQ’s application and 

determined both that the application 

contains the information required 40 

CFR 3.1000(b)(1) and that IDEQ’s 

National NetDMR and SCS systems 

comply with the requirements for 

electronic document receiving systems 

in 40 CFR 3.2000. This approval is 

effective upon the date of this 

publication in the Federal Register. 

Decision process: The State of Idaho 

submitted the IPDES program 

application to EPA on August 31, 2016. 

EPA reviewed the application pursuant 

to 40 CFR part 123, subpart B and the 

application was deemed complete by 

EPA on September 30, 2016. In 

accordance with 40 CFR 123.21(d), 

IDEQ requested and EPA agreed to 

extend the statutory review period for 

the application until June 30, 2018. 

Pursuant to 40 CFR 123.61, on August 

11, 2017, EPA initiated the 60-day 

public comment period as noticed in the 

Federal Register (82 FR 37583). After 

the close of the public comment period, 

completion of the required tribal 

consultation and responding to 

comments, the EPA Administrator 

approved the IPDES program based on 

the requirements of section 402 of the 

CWA, 33 U.S.C. 1342, and 40 CFR part 

123. IDEQ and the Regional 

Administrator signed the MOA prior to 

final IPDES program approval on June 5, 

2018. Upon approval, the Administrator 

notified the State of Idaho. 

Authority: This action is taken under 

the authority of section 402 of the Clean 

Water Act as amended, 33 U.S.C. 1342. 

I hereby provide public notice of EPA’s 

final action authorizing the State of 

Idaho through IDEQ to administer the 

approval IPDES program regulating 

discharges of pollutants to waters of the 

U.S. under its jurisdiction. 

Dated: June 5, 2018. 

E. Scott Pruitt, 

Administrator.

FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS 

COMMISSION 

[OMB 3060–0113 and 3060–0922] 

Information Collections Being 

Reviewed by the Federal 

Communications Commission Under 

Delegated Authority 

AGENCY: Federal Communications 

Commission. 

ACTION: Notice and request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: As part of its continuing effort 

to reduce paperwork burdens, and as 

required by the Paperwork Reduction 

Act of 1995 (PRA), the Federal 

Communications Commission (FCC or 

Commission) invites the general public 

and other Federal agencies to take this 

opportunity to comment on the 

following information collections. 

Comments are requested concerning: 

Whether the proposed collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

Commission, including whether the 

information shall have practical utility; 

the accuracy of the Commission’s 

burden estimate; ways to enhance the 

quality, utility, and clarity of the 

information collected; ways to minimize 

the burden of the collection of 

information on the respondents, 

including the use of automated 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology; and ways to 

further reduce the information 

collection burden on small business 

concerns with fewer than 25 employees. 

The FCC may not conduct or sponsor 

a collection of information unless it 

displays a currently valid Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) control 

number. No person shall be subject to 

any penalty for failing to comply with 

a collection of information subject to the 

PRA that does not display a valid OMB 

control number.
