be collecting are available in the public

Pursuant to section 3506(c)(2)(A) of 

the PRA, EPA is soliciting comments 

and information to enable it to: (i) 

Evaluate whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the Agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; (ii) evaluate the 

accuracy of the Agency’s estimate of the 

burden of the proposed collection of 

information, including the validity of 

the methodology and assumptions used; 

(iii) enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (iv) minimize the burden 

of the collection of information on those 

who are to respond, including through 

the use of appropriate automated 

electronic, mechanical, or other 

technological collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology, 

e.g., permitting electronic submission of 

responses. EPA will consider the 

comments received and amend the ICR 

as appropriate. The final ICR package 

will then be submitted to OMB for 

review and approval. At that time, EPA 

will issue another Federal Register 

notice to announce the submission of 

the ICR to OMB and the opportunity to 

submit additional comments to OMB. 

Abstract: The authority for the 

emergency planning and emergency 

release notification requirements is 

Sections 302, 303, and 304 of the 

Emergency Planning and Community 

Right-to-Know Act (EPCRA) 1986 (42 

U.S.C. 11002, 11003, and 11004). 

EPCRA established broad emergency 

planning and facility reporting 

requirements. Section 302 requires 

facilities to notify their state emergency 

response commission (SERC) and the 

local emergency planning committee 

(LEPC) that the facility is subject to 

emergency planning. This activity was 

completed soon after the law was 

passed. Only new facilities that may 

become subject to these requirements 

must notify the SERC and the LEPC. 

Currently covered facilities are required 

to notify the LEPC of any changes that 

occur at the facility which would be 

relevant to emergency planning. Section 

303 requires the LEPC to prepare local 

emergency response plans for their 

planning district using the information 

provided by facilities under Section 

302. LEPC may request any information 

from facilities necessary to develop 

emergency response plans. Emergency 

response plans were developed within a 

few months after the law was passed. 

LEPCs are required to review and 

update the plan at least annually or 

more frequently as changes occur in the 

community. Section 304 requires 

facilities to report to SERCs and LEPCs 

releases in excess of the reportable 

quantities listed for each extremely 

hazardous substance (EHS). This ICR 

also covers the notification and the 

written follow-up required under 

Section 304. The implementing 

regulations are codified in 40 CFR part 

355. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/Affected Entities: 

Entities potentially affected by this 

action are those which have a threshold 

planning quantity of an extremely 

hazardous substance (EHS) listed in 40 

CFR part 355, Appendix A and those 

which have a release of any of the EHSs 

above a reportable quantity. Entities 

more likely to be affected by this action 

may include chemical manufacturers, 

retailers, petroleum refineries, utilities, 

etc. 

Respondent’s Obligation To Respond: 

Mandatory under EPCRA Sections 302, 

303 and 304. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

108,556. 

Frequency of Response: EPCRA 

Section 302 reporting is a one-time 

notification unless there are changes to 

the reported information; EPCRA 

Section 304 notification is only when a 

release occurs from a facility. 

Total Estimated Burden: 259,456 

hours (per year). Burden is defined at 5 

CFR 1320.03(b). 

Total Estimated Cost: $10.85 million 

(per year), including $68,867 annual 

operations and maintenance costs. 

There are no capital costs associated 

with this ICR. 

Changes in Estimates: The number of 

facilities subject to Section 302 is 

95,000, which is the same as in the 

previous ICR. There is an increase of 

4,500 hours in the total estimated 

respondent burden compared with the 

ICR currently approved by OMB. This 

increase is due to an adjustment to the 

estimate, which corrected for a math 

error in the previous ICR renewal.

Acting Director, Office of Emergency 

Management.
