Docket ID No. EPA–HQ–OAR–2004– 

0489. 

Affected entities: Entities potentially 

affected by this action are generally 

State, territorial and local government 

air quality managements programs. 

Tribal governments are not affected 

unless they have sought and obtained 

treatment as state status under the 

Tribal Authority Rule and on that basis, 

are authorized to implement and 

enforce the Air Emissions Reporting 

Requirements rule. 

Title: Air Emissions Reporting 

Requirements (Renewal) . 

ICR numbers: EPA ICR No.2170.03, 

OMB Control No. 2060–0580. 

ICR status: This ICR is currently 

scheduled to expire on April 30, 2012. 

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 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: The EPA promulgated the 

Air Emissions Reporting Requirements 

(AERR) (40 CFR part 51 subpart A) to 

coordinate emissions inventory 

reporting requirements with existing 

requirements of the Clean Air Act and 

1990 Amendments. Under this 

reporting, 55 State and Territorial air 

quality agencies, including the District 

of Columbia, as well as an estimated 49 

local air quality agencies, must submit 

emissions data every three years for all 

point, non-point, on-road mobile, and 

non-road mobile sources of volatile 

organic compounds, oxides of nitrogen, 

carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, 

particulate matter less than or equal to 

10 micrometers in diameter, particulate 

matter less than or equal to 2.5 

micrometers in diameter, ammonia, and 

lead. 

In addition, the air quality agencies 

must submit annually emission data for 

point sources emitting at greater than 

specified levels of those pollutants. The 

data supplied to the emission reporting 

requirement is needed so that the EPA 

can compile and make available a 

national inventory of air pollutant 

emissions. A comprehensive inventory 

updated at regular intervals is essential 

to allow the EPA to fulfill its mandate 

to monitor and plan for the attainment 

and maintenance of the national 

ambient air quality standards 

established for criteria pollutants. 

This information is collected under 23 

U.S.C. 101; 42 U.S.C 7401–7671q, and 

the authority of the AERR. This 

information is mandatory and, as 

specified, cannot be treated as 

confidential by the EPA. 

The number and frequency of data 

collection and submittal is expected to 

remain the same for 2011–2014. 

Burden: The annual public reporting 

and recordkeeping burden for this 

collection of information is estimated to 

average 42 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. 

The ICR provides a detailed 

explanation of the Agency’s estimate, 

which is only briefly summarized here: 

Estimated total number of potential 

respondents: 104. 

Frequency of response: Annual. 

Estimated total average number of 

responses for each respondent: 1. 

Estimated total annual burden hours: 

51,095. 

Estimated total annual costs: 

$4,060,576. This includes an estimated 

burden cost of $4,060,576 and an 

estimated cost of $0 for capital 

investment or maintenance and 

operational costs. 

Are there changes in the estimates from 

the last approval? 

There is no significant change of 

hours in the ICR currently approved by 

OMB. 

What is the next step in the process for 

this ICR? 

The 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, the 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

the specific entities that may be affected 

by this action. If you have any questions 

regarding the applicability of this action 

to a particular entity, consult the person 

listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION

CONTACT. 

B. What should I consider as I prepare 

my comments for EPA? 

1. Submitting CBI. Do not submit this 

information to EPA through 

regulations.gov or e-mail. Clearly mark 

the part or all of the information that 

you claim to be CBI. For CBI 

information in a disk or CD–ROM that 

you mail to EPA, mark the outside of the 

disk or CD–ROM as CBI and then 

identify electronically within the disk or 

CD–ROM the specific information that 

is claimed as CBI. In addition to one 

complete version of the comment that 

includes information claimed as CBI, a 

copy of the comment that does not 

contain the information claimed as CBI 

must be submitted for inclusion in the 

public docket. Information so marked 

will not be disclosed except in 

accordance with procedures set forth in 

40 CFR part 2. 

2. Tips for preparing your comments.

3. Environmental justice. EPA seeks to 

achieve environmental justice, the fair 

treatment and meaningful involvement 

of any group, including minority and/or 

low income populations, in the 

development, implementation, and 

enforcement of environmental laws, 

regulations, and policies. To help 

address potential environmental justice 

issues, the Agency seeks information on 

any groups or segments of the 

population who, as a result of their 

location, cultural practices, or other 

factors, may have atypical or 

disproportionately high and adverse 

human health impacts or environmental 

effects from exposure to the pesticide(s) 

discussed in this document, compared 

to the general population. 

II. What action is the Agency taking? 

Under section 5 of FIFRA, 7 U.S.C.
