# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

This is a request for approval of a new 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.

                    Public comments were previously requested via the                     **Federal Register**                     on February 15, 2023, during a 60-day comment period (88 FR 9879). This notice allows for an additional 30 days for public comments. Supporting documents, which explain in detail the information that the EPA will be collecting, are available in the public docket for this ICR. The docket can be viewed online at                     *www.regulations.gov*                     or in person at the EPA Docket Center, WJC West, Room 3334, 1301 Constitution Ave. NW, Washington, DC.

*Abstract:*                     This ICR presents EPA's estimates for the burden and costs associated with the information collection activities related to pollution prevention grant programs and the collection of activity and results data from the grantees via a standard electronic format. P2 means reducing or eliminating pollutants from entering any waste stream or otherwise being released into the environment prior to recycling, treatment, or disposal. EPA's P2 program operates three grant programs and is developing two new grant programs. The three existing programs are: The Pollution Prevention State Tribal Assistance Grants (P2 STAG); the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law Pollution Prevention Grants (P2 BIL); and the Source Reduction Assistance (SRA) Grants. The P2 STAG and SRA grants are funded through recurring appropriations and require grantees to provide matching funds. The P2 BIL grants, which are funded through the 2021 Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), also referred to as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL), are also STAG but do not require grantees to provide matching funds. The two new grant programs under development are: The Pollution Prevention Grant: Environmental Justice Through Safer/Sustainable Products (P2 EJ Products); and the Pollution Prevention Grant: Environmental Justice in Communities (P2 EJ Facilities). The P2 EJ Products and P2 EJ Facilities grants will also be supported by BIL funding and, as such, do not require grantee matching funds.                

*Form Numbers:*                     9600-047 and 9600-048.

*Respondent's obligation to respond:*                     Required to obtain or retain a benefit.
