Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 102 / Friday, May 25, 2012 / Notices 31353 

Operation and Emergency Response 

(Renewal). 

ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 1426.09, 

OMB Control No. 2050–0105. 

ICR status: This ICR is currently 

scheduled to expire on 06/61/12. This is 

a request renewal of a currently 

approved collection. 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. 

The OMB control numbers for EPA’s 

regulations in title 40 of the CFR, after 

appearing in the Federal Register when 

approved, are listed in 40 CFR part 9, 

are displayed either by publication in 

the Federal Register or by other 

appropriate means, such as on the 

related collection instrument or form, if 

applicable. The display of OMB control 

numbers in certain EPA regulations is 

consolidated in 40 CFR part 9. 

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, 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 at 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. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection is estimated to average 

10.64 hours per response. Burden means 

to total time, effort, and financial 

resources expended by persons to 

generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or 

provide information to or for a Federal 

agency. This includes the time needed 

to review instructions; develop, acquire, 

install, and utilize technology and 

systems for the purposes of collecting, 

validating, and verifying information, 

processing and maintaining 

information, and disclosing and 

providing information; adjust the 

existing ways to comply with any 

previously applicable instructions and 

requirements; train personnel to be able 

to respond to a collection of 

information; search data sources; 

complete and review the collection of 

information; and transmit or otherwise 

disclose the information. 

The ICR provides a detailed 

explanation of the Agency’s estimate, 

which is only briefly summarized here: 

Estimated total number of potential 

respondents: 24,000. 

Frequency of response: Annually. 

Estimated total average number of 

responses for each respondent: 1. 

Estimated total annual burden hours: 

255,427 hours. 

Estimated total annual costs: 

$3,528,888, which is entirely for labor. 

There are no capital investment or 

maintenance and operational costs. 

These burden estimates reflect what is 

currently approved by OMB, without 

change. EPA will provide revised 

burden estimates when the second 

comment period for this ICR is opened. 

However, as the universe and 

regulations have not changed, EPA does 

not anticipate any substantive changes 

to the burden figures. 

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 pursuant to 5 CFR 

1320.12. At that time, EPA will issue 

another Federal Register notice 

pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.5(a)(1)(iv) to 

announce the submission of the ICR to 

OMB and the opportunity to submit 

additional comments to OMB. If you 

have any questions about this ICR or the 

approval process, please contact the 

technical person listed under FOR

An Assessment of Potential Mining 

Impacts on Salmon Ecosystems of 

Bristol Bay, AK 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice of public comment 

period. 

SUMMARY: The U.S. Environmental 

Protection Agency (EPA) is announcing 

a public comment period for the draft 

document titled, ‘‘An Assessment of 

Potential Mining Impacts on Salmon 

Ecosystems of Bristol Bay, Alaska’’ 

(EPA–910–R–12–004a–d). The 

document was prepared by the EPA’s 

Region 10 (Pacific Northwest and 

Alaska), EPA’s Office of Water, and 

EPA’s Office of Research and 

Development. The EPA conducted this 

assessment to determine the 

significance of Bristol Bay’s ecological 

resources and evaluate the potential 

impacts of large-scale mining on these 

resources. EPA will use the results of 

this assessment to inform the 

consideration of options consistent with 

its role under the Clean Water Act. The 

assessment is intended to provide a 

scientific and technical foundation for 

future decision making; EPA will not 

address use of its regulatory authority 

until the assessment becomes final and 

has made no judgment about whether 

and how to use that authority at this 

time. 

DATES: The public comment period 

began Friday, May 18, 2012, and ends 

Monday, July 23, 2012. Technical 

comments should be in writing and 

must be received by EPA by Monday,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Information About the Project/ 

Document 

The U.S. Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) conducted this 

assessment to determine the 

significance of Bristol Bay’s ecological 

resources and evaluate the potential 

impacts of large-scale mining on these 

resources. The EPA will use the results 

of this assessment to inform the 

consideration of options consistent with 

its role under the Clean Water Act. The 

assessment is intended to provide a 

scientific and technical foundation for 

future decision making. The Web site 

that describes the project is 

www.epa.gov/bristolbay. This draft 

document addresses potential impacts 

to water quality and the salmon fishery 

that may result from large-scale mining 

in the Nushagak and Kvichak 

watersheds of southwest Alaska. 

EPA is releasing this draft assessment 

for the purposes of public comment and 

peer review. This draft assessment is not 

final as described in EPA’s information 

quality guidelines, and it does not 

represent and should not be construed 

to represent Agency policy or views. 

EPA utilizes public comments as one 

means to ensure that science products 

are complete and accurate. EPA is 

seeking comments from the public on 

all aspects of the report, including the 

scientific and technical information 

presented in the report, the hypothetical 

mining scenario used, the data and 

information used to inform assumptions 

about mining activities and the 

evaluations of risk to the fishery, and 

the potential mitigation measures 

considered (and effectiveness of those 

measures). EPA is also specifically 

seeking any additional data or scientific 

or technical information about Bristol 

Bay resources or large-scale mining that 

should be considered in our evaluation. 

EPA will consider any public 

comments submitted in accordance with 

this notice when revising the document. 

After public review and comment, 

EPA’s independent contractor, Versar, 

Inc., will convene an expert panel for 

independent external peer review of this 

draft assessment. The public comment 

period and external peer review meeting 

are separate processes that provide 

opportunities for all interested parties to 

comment on the assessment. The 

preferred method to submit comments is 

through the docket, which is described 

below. Public meetings will be held in 

Anchorage, Dillingham, Newhalen, 

Naknek, Nondalton, and New Stuyahok, 

AK during the week of June 4–8, 2012. 

Spoken comments will be accepted at 

these meetings. The external peer 

review panel meeting is scheduled to be 

held in Anchorage, AK on August 7, 8, 

and 9, 2012. The public will be invited 

to attend on August 7 and 8, 2012. 

Further information regarding the 

external peer review panel meeting will 

be announced at a later date in the 

Federal Register.
