Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 56 / Thursday, March 22, 2012 / Notices 16835 

received authorization to manage the 

Biosolids (Sludge) Program. In states 

that do not have authority for these 

programs, the Agency issues and 

administers NPDES permits. Because 

some permit applications are processed 

by states and some by EPA, this ICR 

calculates government burden and costs 

for both states and EPA. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 4.3 hours per 

response. Burden means the total time, 

effort, or 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 which have subsequently 

changed; 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. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

398,340 (397,703 facilities and 637 

States/Tribes/Territories). 

Frequency of Response: Once, every 

five years, annually, semi-annually, 

quarterly, bimonthly, monthly, 

biweekly, weekly, daily, ongoing, 

occasionally/as needed. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

21,324,741 hours. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: 

$1,014,324,384 includes $211,074 

annualized capital costs and 

$18,551,848 annualized O&M costs. 

Change in Burden: There is a decrease 

of 9,618,566 hours in the total estimated 

burden currently identified in the OMB 

Inventory of Approved ICR Burdens. 

This decrease in burden corresponds to 

31 percent of the overall burden. The 

main reasons for the change in burden 

is that EPA generated a new estimate of 

construction sites based on data 

collected for the development of the 

final Construction Effluent Limitation 

Guidelines. The Agency revised its 

estimate of the number of large and 

small construction sites covered by this 

ICR downward from 243,076 to 84,472 

sites annually. The impact of this 

change in the number of construction 

sites is a decrease of 8,051,315 hours. 

Some other specific reasons for 

burdens changes are presented below: 

• EPA’s continuous effort to improve 

the quality of data in its PCS and ICIS– 

NPDES. This change could reflect more 

accurate data rather than a significant 

change in the number of permits 

actually administered. This change is 

particularly important for activities 

related to general permittees because in 

previous ICRs, EPA based the 

calculation on best professional 

estimates; whereas, for this ICR, the 

Agency has real inventory numbers 

from PCS and ICIS–NPDES. 

• All CSO permits or enforcement 

orders have fulfilled the obligation of 

Phase I technology-based CSO control 

requirements (Nine Minimum Controls). 

• Previously, EPA accounted for 6 

hours per CAAP facilities to submit 

Form 2b and 0.5 hours per application 

per state to process and review the form. 

This burden from CAAP facilities and 

states has been transferred to the 

Animal Sectors ICR (OMB Control No. 

2040–0250). 

• In the previous ICR, EPA accounted 

for the state burden of 24 hours per 

pretreatment compliance inspection, but 

this burden has been transferred to the 

Pretreatment ICR (OMB Control No. 

2040–0009).

(Renewal). 

ICR Numbers: EPA ICR Number 

1167.10, OMB Control Number 2060– 

0063. 

ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to 

expire on April 30, 2012. Under OMB 

regulations, the Agency may continue to 

conduct or sponsor the collection of 

information while this submission is 

pending at OMB. 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 Number for the EPA 

regulations are listed in 40 CFR part 9 

and 48 CFR chapter 15, and are 

identified on the form and/or 

instrument, if applicable. 

Abstract: The New Source 

Performance Standards for Lime 

Manufacturing are subject to the General 

Provisions of the NSPS at 40 CFR part 

60, subpart A, and any changes, or 

additions to the Provisions specified at 

40 CFR part 60, subpart HH. 

Owners or operators of the affected 

facilities must submit initial 

notification, performance tests, and 

periodic reports and results. Owners or 

operators are also required to maintain 

records of the occurrence and duration 

of any startup, shutdown, or 

malfunction in the operation of an 

affected facility, or any period during 

which the monitoring system is 

inoperative. Reports, at a minimum, are 

required semiannually. 

All reports are sent to the delegated 

state or local authority. In the event that 

there is no such delegated authority, the 

reports are sent directly to the EPA 

regional office. This information is 

being collected to assure compliance 

with 40 CFR part 60, subpart HH, as 

authorized in section 112 and 114(a) of 

the Clean Air Act. The required 

information consists of emissions data 

and other information that have been 

determined to be private. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 46 hours per 

response. ‘‘Burden’’ means the total 

time, effort, or 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 which have 

subsequently changed; 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. 

Respondents/Affected Entities: Lime 

production facilities. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 41 

Frequency of Response: Initially, 

occasionally, and semiannually. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

3,772 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: 

$422,931, which includes $361,431 in 

labor costs, no capital/startup costs, and 

$61,500 in operation and maintenance 

(O&M) costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is an 

increase in costs for both the 

respondents and the Agency from the 

most recently approved ICR. The 

increase in burden cost is due to 

adjustments in labor rates. This ICR uses 

updated labor rates from the Bureau of 

Labor Statistics to calculate burden 

costs. 

There is a decrease of one hour in 

labor hours for the respondents related 

to a mathematical rounding error in the 

previous ICR. There is no change in the 

estimation methodology for labor hours 

to the respondents in this ICR compared 

to the previous ICR. This is due to two 

considerations: (1) The regulations have 

not changed over the past three years 

and are not anticipated to change over 

the next three years; and (2) the growth 

rate for respondents is very low, 

negative, or non-existent.
