SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. What Information is EPA Particularly 

Interested in? 

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

PRA, EPA specifically solicits 

comments and information to enable it 

to: 

1. 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. 

2. Evaluate the accuracy of the 

Agency’s estimates of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used. 

3. Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected. 

4. 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. In 

particular, EPA is requesting comments 

from very small businesses (those that 

employ less than 25) on examples of 

specific additional efforts that EPA 

could make to reduce the paperwork 

burden for very small businesses 

affected by this collection. 

II. What Should I Consider when I 

Prepare My Comments for EPA? 

You may find the following 

suggestions helpful for preparing your 

comments: 

1. Explain your views as clearly as 

possible and provide specific examples. 

2. Describe any assumptions that you 

used. 

3. Provide copies of any technical 

information and/or data you used that 

support your views. 

4. If you estimate potential burden or 

costs, explain how you arrived at the 

estimate that you provide. 

5. Provide specific examples to 

illustrate your concerns. 

6. Offer alternative ways to improve 

the collection activity. 

7. Make sure to submit your 

comments by the deadline identified 

under DATES. 

8. To ensure proper receipt by EPA, 

be sure to identify the docket ID number 

assigned to this action in the subject 

line on the first page of your response. 

You may also provide the name, date, 

and Federal Register citation. 

III. What Information Collection 

Activity or ICR Does this Action Apply 

to? 

Affected entities: Entities potentially 

affected by this ICR are local education 

agencies (LEAs, e.g., elementary or 

secondary public school districts or a 

private school or school system); 

asbestos training providers to schools 

and educational systems; state 

education departments or commissions; 

or state public health departments or 

commissions. 

Title: Asbestos-Containing Materials 

in Schools Rule and Revised Asbestos 

Model Accreditation Plan Rule. 

ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 1365.09, 

OMB Control No. 2070–0091. 

ICR status: This ICR is currently 

scheduled to expire on March 31, 2011. 

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 Code 

of Federal Regulations (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 for certain EPA regulations is 

consolidated in 40 CFR part 9. 

Abstract: The Asbestos Hazard 

Emergency Response Act (AHERA) 

requires LEAs to conduct inspections, 

develop management plans, and design 

or conduct response actions with 

respect to the presence of asbestoscontaining materials in school 

buildings. AHERA also requires states to 

develop model accreditation plans for 

persons who perform asbestos 

inspections, develop management 

control plans, and design or conduct 

response actions. This information 

collection addresses the burden 

associated with recordkeeping 

requirements imposed on LEAs by the 

asbestos in schools rule and reporting 

and recordkeeping requirements 

imposed on states and training 

providers related to the model 

accreditation plan rule. 

Responses to the collection of 

information are mandatory (see 40 CFR 

part 763, subpart E). Respondents may 

claim all or part of a document 

confidential. EPA will disclose 

information that is covered by a claim 

of confidentiality only to the extent 

permitted by, and in accordance with, 

the procedures in TSCA section 14 and 

40 CFR part 2. 

Burden statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to range between 5.5 hours 

and 140 hours per response, depending 

on the category of the respondent. 

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. 

The ICR provides a detailed 

explanation of this estimate, which is 

only briefly summarized here: 

Estimated total number of potential 

respondents: 133,980. 

Frequency of response: On occasion. 

Estimated total average number of 

responses for each respondent: 1. 

Estimated total annual burden hours: 

2,592,888 hours. 

Estimated total annual costs: 

$86,972,753. This includes an estimated 

burden cost of $86,972,753 and an 

estimated cost of $0 for capital 

investment or maintenance and 

operational costs. 

IV. Are There Changes in the Estimates 

from the Last Approval? 

There is an increase of 62,288 hours 

in the total estimated respondent 

burden compared with that identified in 

the ICR currently approved by OMB. 

This increase reflects EPA’s estimate of 

the number of schools with nonfriable 

asbestos-containing material and the 

number of training providers affected by 

this information collection. The change 

is an adjustment.

Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 186 / Monday, September 27, 2010 / Notices 59263 

V. What is the Next Step in the Process 

for this ICR? 

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. 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 FURTHER

INFORMATION CONTACT.

identify and describe the role(s) of the 

personnel and units authorized to be 

involved in incentive compensation 

arrangements, identify the source of 

significant risk-related inputs, establish 

appropriate controls governing these 

inputs to help ensure their integrity, and 

identify the individual(s) and unit(s) 

whose approval is necessary for the 

establishment or modification of 

incentive compensation arrangements; 

(ii) create and maintain sufficient 

documentation to permit an audit of the 

organization’s processes for incentive 

compensation arrangements; (iii) have 

any material exceptions or adjustments 

to the incentive compensation

basis, an assessment by management of 

the effectiveness of the design and 

operation of the organization’s incentive 

compensation system in providing risktaking incentives that are consistent 

with the organization’s safety and 

soundness.
