80362 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 247 / Friday, December 23, 2011 / Notices 

collected from IUs during 

implementation of the pretreatment 

program include the mass, frequency, 

and content of IU discharges and IU 

schedules for installing pretreatment 

equipment. Data also include actual or 

anticipated IU discharges of wastes that 

violate pretreatment standards, have the 

potential to cause problems at the 

POTW, or are considered hazardous 

under the Resource Conservation and 

Recovery Act (RCRA). OWM uses the 

data collected under the pretreatment 

program to monitor and enforce 

compliance with the pretreatment 

regulations, as well as to authorize 

program administration at the State or 

Local (POTW) level. States and POTWs 

applying for approval of their 

pretreatment programs submit data 

concerning their legal, procedural, and 

administrative bases for establishing 

such programs. This information may 

include surveys of IUs, local limits for 

pollutant concentrations, and schedules 

for completion of major project 

requirements. IUs and POTWs submit 

written reports to the approved State or 

EPA. These data may then be entered 

into the NPDES databases by the 

approved State or by EPA. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 74.0 hours per 

respondent per year, or 18.35 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. 

Affected entities: Various industrial 

categories, publicly owned treatment 

works (POTWs), Local and State 

governments. 

Estimated total number of potential 

respondents: 24,411 (36 States, 1,548 

POTWs and 22,827 industrial users). 

Frequency of response: On occasion, 

semi-annually, annually. 

Estimated total average number of 

responses for each respondent: 4. 

Estimated total annual burden hours: 

1,806,517 hours. 

Estimated total annual costs: 

$77,647,536. This includes an estimated 

burden cost of $75,328,623 and an 

estimated cost of $2,318,913 for capital 

investment or maintenance and 

operational costs. 

Change in Burden: There is an 

increase of 9,430 (0.5%) hours in the 

total estimated respondent burden 

compared with that identified in the ICR 

currently approved by OMB. Most of the 

increase in burden is attributable to the 

transfer of the burden associated with 

Pretreatment Compliance Inspection 

(PCI) from the NPDES Program ICR 

(OMB Control No. 2040–0004, EPA ICR 

No. 0229.20). There are also additional 

burden increases in other areas. For 

example, the number of state 

respondents has increased from 35 to 

36, and the number of approved 

programs has increased to 1,548 from 

1,512. 

However, the increases in burden are 

partially offset by a decrease in burden 

attributable to the decrease in the 

number of SIUs. EPA revised the 

estimated number of SIUs and 

pretreatment programs after extensive 

consultation with the EPA regions and 

a thorough examination of PCS data. 

The revised number of SIUs drives the 

decrease in respondent burden because 

SIUs constitute the bulk of respondents. 

This ICR shows a shift in burden from 

POTWs to States as a consequence of 

EPA’s updated estimates of SIUs 

regulated by POTWs and States. 

However, this is not the result of 

programmatic changes but simply a 

reflection of more accurate information 

about the implementation of the 

pretreatment program.

Title: Fuel Quality Regulations for 

Diesel Fuel Sold in 2001 & Later Years; 

for Tax-Exempt (Dyed) Highway Diesel 

Fuel; & Non-Road Locomotive & Marine 

Diesel Fuel (Renewal). 

ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 1718.09, 

OMB Control No. 2060–0308. 

ICR Status: This ICR is currently 

scheduled to expire on December 31, 

2011. 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 

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: This ICR covers 

recordkeeping and reporting 

requirements for motor vehicle diesel 

fuel and non-road, locomotive and 

marine diesel fuel. It also includes 

recordkeeping and reporting associated 

with the placement of codes on dyed 

diesel fuel (the dye is required under 

IRS regulations). The main purpose for 

recordkeeping and reporting is to ensure 

compliance with the regulations at 40 

CFR Part 80, Subpart I—‘‘Motor Vehicle, 

Non-Road, Locomotive, and Marine 

Diesel Fuel.’’ Most reporting is 

mandatory. Parties may assert a claim of 

business confidentiality and 

submissions covered by such a claim 

will be treated in accordance with 

procedures at 40 CFR part 2 and 

established Agency procedures. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average .07 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: Private 

businesses selling diesel fuel. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

6,806. 

Frequency of Response: Annual, 

quarterly and/or on occasion.. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

18,950. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: 

$2,084,500. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is a 

decrease of hours in the total estimated 

burden currently identified in the OMB 

Inventory of Approved ICR Burdens. For 

this renewal, we estimate a total annual 

burden of 18,950 hours. This represents 

a decrease of 266,311 hours. For the 

expiring approval, we had estimated 

285,261 hours. Most motor vehicle 

diesel reporting has now ended, which 

was expected to reduce the responses, 

hours, and costs. Likewise, laboratory 

qualifications have virtually all been 

submitted already. However, please note 

that we have changed how we 

accounted for the burden for this 

renewal. We have modeled our 

estimates to match the in-use forms in 

order to assist interested parties in 

providing comments. Therefore, some of 

the change is associated with how we 

did the estimates in 2008 (expiring 

approval) and now.
