Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 38 / Tuesday, February 26, 2013 / Notices 13053 

Changes in the Estimates: There is an 

increase in the total estimated burden as 

currently identified in the OMB 

Inventory of Approved Burdens. This 

increase is not due to any program 

changes. The increases in burden, 

including labor hours, labor costs, and 

O&M costs reflect an increase in the 

number of respondents. The new 

number of respondents accounts for the 

one new source that is subject to the 

rule since the last ICR period. In 

addition, this ICR uses updated labor 

rates to calculate burden costs, which 

results in an increase in labor costs for 

both the respondents and the Agency.

Abstract: Title II of the Clean Air Act 

(42 U.S.C. 7521 et seq.) (CAA) charges 

the Environmental Protection Agency 

(EPA) with issuing certificates of 

conformity for those engines that 

comply with applicable emission 

standards. Such a certificate must be 

issued before engines may be legally 

introduced into commerce. Under this 

ICR, EPA collects information necessary 

to (1) issue certificates of compliance 

with emission statements, and (2) verify 

compliance with various programs and 

regulatory provisions pertaining to 

locomotives, locomotive engines, and 

locomotive remanufacturing kits 

(collectively referred to here as 

‘‘engines’’ for simplicity). To apply for 

a certificate of conformity, 

manufacturers are required to submit 

descriptions of their planned 

production engines, including detailed 

descriptions of emission control systems 

and test data. This information is 

organized by ‘‘engine family’’ groups 

expected to have similar emission 

characteristics. There are also 

recordkeeping requirements. Those 

manufacturers electing to participate in 

the Averaging, Banking and Trading 

(AB&T) Program are also required to 

submit information regarding the 

calculation, actual generation and usage 

of credits in an initial report, end-of-theyear report and final report. These 

reports are used for certification and 

enforcement purposes. Manufacturers 

must maintain records for eight years on 

the engine families included in the 

AB&T Program. 

The CAA also mandates EPA to verify 

that manufacturers have successfully 

translated their certified prototypes into 

mass produced engines, and that these 

engines comply with emission 

standards throughout their useful lives. 

Under the Production Line Testing 

(PLT) Program, manufacturers are 

required to test a sample of engines as 

they leave the assembly line. This selfaudit program allows manufacturers to 

monitor compliance with statistical 

certainty and minimize the cost of 

correcting errors through early 

detection. A similar audit program 

exists for the installation of locomotive 

remanufacturing kits. In-use testing 

allows manufacturers and EPA to verify 

compliance with emission standards 

throughout the locomotive’s useful life. 

Through Selected Enforcement Audits 

(SEAs), EPA verifies that test data 

submitted by engine manufacturers is 

reliable and testing is performed 

according to EPA regulations. 

The information requested is 

collected by the Diesel Engine 

Compliance Center (DECC), Compliance 

Division (CD), Office of Transportation 

and Air Quality, Office of Air and 

Radiation, EPA. Besides DECC and CD, 

this information could be used by the 

Office of Enforcement and Compliance 

Assurance and the Department of Justice 

for enforcement purposes. Nonconfidential business information 

submitted by respondents to this 

information collection may be disclosed 

over the Internet. That information is 

used by trade associations, 

environmental groups, and the public. 

Under this ICR, most of the information 

is collected in electronic format and 

stored in CD’s databases. 

Confidential business information 

(CBI) is kept confidential in accordance 

with the Freedom of Information Act, 

EPA regulations at 40 CFR Part 2, and 

class determinations issued by EPA’s 

Office of General Counsel. Nonproprietary information submitted by 

manufacturers is held as confidential 

until the specific locomotive or 

locomotive engine to which it pertains 

is available for purchase.

Subpart C). PLT/Installation Audit 

reporting is mandatory (Section 

206(b)(1) of CAA and 40 CFR Part 1033, 

Subpart D). Participation in ABT is 

voluntary, but once a manufacturer has 

elected to participate, it must submit the

Total estimated cost: $2,862,117 (per 

year), which includes $1,558,881 in 

O&M costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is an 

increase of 414 hours in the total 

estimated respondent burden compared 

with the ICR currently approved by 

OMB. This increase is due to an 

adjustment to the estimates (an increase 

on the number of respondents).
