Abstract: The Disinfectants/ Disinfection Byproducts, Chemical and Radionuclides Rules ICR examines public water systems’ and primacy agencies’ 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 the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) at 40 CFR parts 141 and 142. The following chemical regulations are included: The Stage 1 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule (Stage 1 DBPR), the Stage 2 Disinfectants and Disinfection Byproducts Rule (Stage 2 DBPR), the Chemical Phase Rules (Phases II/IIB/V), the Radionuclides Rule, the Disinfectant Residual Monitoring and Associated Activities under the Surface Water Treatment Rule (SWTR), the Arsenic Rule and the Lead and Copper Rule (LCR). Future chemical-related rulemakings will be added to this consolidated ICR after the regulationsare promulgated and the initial, rulespecific, ICRs are due to expire.

Form Numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Entities potentially affected by this action are new and existing public water systems and primacy agencies.

Respondent’s obligation to respond: Mandatory for compliance with 40 CFR parts 141 and 142.

Estimated number of respondents: 149,822.

Frequency of response: Varies by requirement ( i.e., on occasion, monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, annually, biennially, and every 3, 6 and 9 years). Total estimated burden: 5,305,696 hours (per year). Burden is defined in 5 CFR 1320.03(b).

T otal estimated cost: $464,896,000 (per year), includes $5,492,000 annualized capital costs and $253,440,000 operation and maintenance costs.

Changes in the Estimates: There is a decrease of 428,639 hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB. This decrease is a result of updating relevant baseline information for each rule with the most current and accurate information available and updating burden to incorporate the results of consultation with stakeholders. Estimated violation and other associated rates have also been updated to reflect current information on rule compliance.

Abstract: EPA published the NonHazardous Secondary Materials (NHSM) Rule on March 21, 2011. Amendments to this rule were published in the Federal Register on February 7, 2013. These amendments provided clarification on certain issues on which EPA received new information, as well as specific targeted revisions. In addition, these amendments listedseveral NHSMs as categorical nonwastes when used as fuels. The Agency also indicated that we would consider

adding additional materials to the categorical listings.

The rule associated with this ICR Supporting Statement proposes to add three additional materials to the list of categorical non-waste fuels: (1) Construction and demolition (C&D) wood processed from construction and demolition debris according to best management practices; (2) paper recycling residuals (PRRs), including old corrugated cardboard (OCC) rejects, generated from the recycling of recovered paper and paperboard products and burned on-site by paper recycling mills whose boilers are designed to burn solid fuel, and (3) creosote-treated railroad ties that are processed and combusted in units designed to burn both biomass and fuel oil. This ICR is a description of the indirect information collection requirements associated with the proposed rule. There are two burden categories associated with this action: reading and understanding the rule, and certification statements for affected facilities.

Form Numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: Generators, users, and potential users of the new materials proposed to be added to the list of categorical non-waste fuels.

Respondent’s obligation to respond: Voluntary, required to obtain non-waste determinations for non-hazardous secondary materials (40 CFR part 241).

Estimated number of respondents: 605 (total).

Frequency of response: Once. Total estimated burden: 885 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b).

Total estimated cost: $64,739 (per year), includes $0 annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.

Changes in the Estimates: This is a new collection.

Abstract: Section 126(f) of the Superfund Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986 (SARA) requires EPA to set worker protection standards for State and local employees engaged in hazardous waste operations and emergency response in the 27 States that do not have Occupational Safety and Health Administration approved State plans. The EPA coverage, as cited in 40 CFR 311, required to be identical to the OSHA standards, extends to three categories of employees: Those engaged in clean-ups at uncontrolled hazardous waste sites, including corrective actions at Treatment, Storage and Disposal (TSD) facilities regulated under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA); employees working on routine hazardous waste operations at RCRA TSD facilities, and employees involved in emergency response operations without regard to location. This ICR renews existing mandatory record keeping collection of ongoing activities including monitoring of any potential employee exposure at uncontrolled hazardous waste sites, maintaining records of employee training, refresher training, medical exams and reviewing emergency response plans.

Form Numbers: None. Respondents/affected entities: State and local employees engaged in hazardous waste operations and emergency response in the 27 States that do not have Occupational Health & Safety Administration (OSHA) approved State plans.

Respondent’s Obligation to respond: Mandatory. Section (e) and by statue in Section (f)[8] of OSHA’s 29 CFR
1910.120.

Estimated number of respondents: 23,900.

Frequency of response: Once, Annual, On occasion.

Total estimated burden: 255,477 hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b)

Total estimated cost: $4,668,688 (per year), includes $0 annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.

Changes in Estimates: There is no change of the hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR currently approved by OMB. This is due to the program maturing and stabilizing. The cost
