and processing. The SAB conducted two 

previous quality reviews and identified 

revisions to the draft reports in order to 

clarify the recommendations and in 

some cases to reframe them to ensure 

they are not policy prescriptive. This 

report is a product of SAB’s direct 

efforts and utilizes portions of the draft 

reports. Previous drafts of the panel’s 

report are retained on the SAB website. 

Background on the current advisory 

activity, Biogenic Carbon Dioxide 

Emissions from Stationary Sources— 

Assessment Framework can be found on 

the SAB website at http://yosemite.epa.

Briefings and updates. The SAB will 

receive updates from SAB members on 

the current activities of committees and 

panels developing advisory reports and 

briefings on future topics from the EPA 

staff. 

Pursuant to FACA and EPA policy, 

notice is hereby given that the Chartered 

SAB will hold a public teleconference to 

discuss information provided by the 

EPA on these topics. The Chartered SAB 

will comply with the provisions of 

FACA and all appropriate SAB Staff 

Office procedural policies. 

Availability of Meeting Materials: 

Prior to the meeting, the review 

documents, agenda and other materials 

will be accessible on the SAB website at 

http://www.epa.gov/sab/. 

Procedures for Providing Public Input: 

Public comment for consideration by 

the EPA’s federal advisory committees 

and panels has a different purpose from 

public comment provided to the EPA 

program offices. Therefore, the process 

for submitting comments to a federal 

advisory committee is different from the 

process used to submit comments to an 

EPA program office. 

Federal advisory committees and 

panels, including scientific advisory 

committees, provide independent 

advice to the EPA. Members of the 

public can submit comments for a 

federal advisory committee to consider 

as it develops advice for the EPA. 

Interested members of the public may 

submit relevant written or oral 

information on the topic of this advisory 

activity, and/or the group conducting 

the activity, for the SAB to consider 

during the advisory process. Input from 

the public to the SAB will have the most 

impact if it provides specific scientific 

or technical information or analysis for 

SAB to consider or if it relates to the 

clarity or accuracy of the technical 

information. Members of the public 

wishing to provide comment should 

follow the instructions below to submit 

comments. Oral Statements: In general, 

individuals or groups requesting an oral 

presentation on a public teleconference 

will be limited to three minutes. Each 

person making an oral statement should 

consider providing written comments as 

well as their oral statement so that the 

points presented orally can be expanded 

upon in writing. Interested parties 

should contact Mr. Thomas Carpenter, 

DFO, in writing (preferably via email) at 

the contact information noted above by 

September 19, 2018, to be placed on the 

list of public speakers. Written 

Statements: Written statements should 

be supplied to the DFO via email at the 

contact information noted above by 

September 19, 2018, so that the 

information may be made available to 

the SAB members for their 

consideration. It is the SAB Staff Office 

general policy to post written comments 

on the web page for the advisory 

meeting or teleconference. Members of 

the public should be aware that their 

personal contact information, if 

included in any written comments, may 

be posted to the SAB website. 

Copyrighted material will not be posted 

without explicit permission of the 

copyright holder. 

Accessibility: For information on 

access or services for individuals with 

disabilities, please contact Mr. Thomas 

Carpenter at the contact information 

provided above. To request 

accommodation of a disability, please 

contact Mr. Carpenter preferably at least 

ten days prior to each meeting to give 

the EPA as much time as possible to 

process your request.

Proposed Information Collection 

Request; Comment Request; NESHAP 

for Radionuclides (Renewal) 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) is planning to submit an 

information collection request (ICR), 

‘‘NESHAP for Radionuclides (Renewal)’’ 

(EPA ICR No. 1100.16, OMB Control No. 

2060–0191) to the Office of Management 

and Budget (OMB) for review and 

approval in accordance with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act. Before doing 

so, the EPA is soliciting public 

comments on specific aspects of the 

proposed information collection as 

described below. This is a proposed 

extension of the ICR, which is currently 

approved through March 31, 2019. An 

Agency may not conduct or sponsor and 

a person is not required to respond to 

a collection of information unless it 

displays a currently valid OMB control 

number. 

DATES: Comments must be submitted on 

or before November 5, 2018. 

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, 

referencing Docket ID No. EPA–HQ– 

OAR–2003–0085, online using 

www.regulations.gov (our preferred 

method), by email to [a-and-r-Docket@

Center, Environmental Protection 

Agency, Mail Code 28221T, 1200 

Pennsylvania Ave. NW, Washington, DC 

20460. 

EPA’s policy is that all comments 

received will be included in the public 

docket without change, including any 

personal information provided, unless 

the comment includes profanity, threats, 

information claimed to be Confidential 

Business Information (CBI) or other 

information whose disclosure is 

restricted by statute.

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: On December 15, 1989, 

pursuant to Section 112 of the Clean Air 

Act as amended in 1977 (42 U.S.C. 

1857), the Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) promulgated National 

Emission Standards for Hazardous Air 

Pollutants (NESHAP) to control 

radionuclide emissions from several 

source categories. The regulations are 

codified at 40 CFR part 61. Of the seven 

subparts (B, H, I, K, R, T and W) 

included in the 1989 rule, as currently 

amended, four apply to privatelyoperated facilities. In addition to 

requiring operational practices that limit 

emissions, Subparts B, K, R, and W 

impose radionuclide dose and/or 

emission limits, respectively, to 

underground uranium mines, elemental 

phosphorous plants, phosphogypsum 

stacks, and uranium mill tailings 

impoundments. Facilities must measure 

their radionuclide emissions, perform 

analysis or calculations per EPA 

procedure, and report the results to the 

EPA. 

Information collected is used by the 

EPA to ensure that public health 

continues to be protected from the 

hazards of airborne radionuclides by 

compliance with these standards. 

Compliance is demonstrated through 

emissions testing and dose calculation 

when appropriate. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: The 

North American Industry Classification 

System (NAICS) codes of facilities 

associated with the activity of the 

respondents are: (1) Elemental 

Phosphorous—325180, (2) 

Phosphogypsum Stacks—212392, (3) 

Underground Uranium Mines—212291, 

and (4) Uranium Mill Tailings—212291. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Mandatory (CAA, Sec, 112; 40 CFR part 

61). 

Estimated number of respondents: 17 

(total). 

Frequency of response: Annual, or 

one-time depending on the source 

category and respondent activity. 

Total estimated burden: 1,880 hours 

(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.03(b). 

Total estimated cost: $447,850 (per 

year), which includes $328,000 

annualized capital or operation and 

maintenance costs. 

Changes in estimates: There is a 

decrease of 1,898 hours in the total 

estimated respondent burden compared 

with the 3,778 hours in the ICR 

currently approved by OMB. This 

decrease is due to a combination of 

factors. Fewer facilities, particularly 

uranium mines, are currently active. 

The only operating elemental 

phosphorus plant has obtained a waiver 

from annual testing and reporting. 

Compared to previous estimates, the 

current calculation assumes that fewer 

phosphogypsum stacks will require 

radon tests in any given year. The 

current assumption represents an upper 

bound on costs due to radon testing and 

reporting, compared to the actual 

observed activities of these facilities.
