Waste Facility Standards. 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA) is planning to submit an 

information collection request (ICR), 

General Hazardous Waste Facility 

Standards (EPA ICR No. 1571.11, OMB 

Control No. 2050–0120) to the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) for 

review and approval in accordance with 

the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) (44 

U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). Before doing so, the 

EPA is soliciting public comments on 

specific aspects of the proposed 

information collection as described 

below. This is a proposed extension of 

the ICR, which is currently approved 

through February 29, 2016. 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. 

DATES: Comments must be submitted on 

or before December 28, 2015. 

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, 

referencing by Docket ID No. EPA–HQ– 

RCRA–2015–0606, online using 

www.regulations.gov (our preferred 

method), by email to rcra-docket@

epa.gov, or by mail to: EPA Docket 

Center, Environmental Protection 

Agency, Mail Code 28221T, 1200 

Pennsylvania Ave. NW., Washington, 

DC 20460. 

EPA’s policy is that all comments 

received will be included in the public 

docket without change including any 

personal information provided, unless 

the comment includes profanity, threats, 

information claimed to be Confidential 

Business Information (CBI) or other 

information whose disclosure is 

restricted by statute.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Supporting documents which explain in 

detail the information the EPA will be 

collecting are available in the public 

docket for this ICR. The docket can be

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

the PRA, the EPA is soliciting comments 

and information to enable it to: (i) 

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; (ii) evaluate the 

accuracy of the Agency’s estimate of the 

burden of the proposed collection of 

information, including the validity of 

the methodology and assumptions used; 

(iii) enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (iv) 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. 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. At that time, the 

EPA will issue another Federal Register 

notice to announce the submission of 

the ICR to OMB and the opportunity to 

submit additional comments to OMB. 

Abstract: Section 3004 of the 

Resource Conservation and Recovery 

Act (RCRA), as amended, requires that 

the U.S. Environmental Protection 

Agency develop standards for hazardous 

waste treatment, storage, and disposal 

facilities (TSDFs) as may be necessary to 

protect human health and the 

environment. Subsections 3004(a)(1), 

(3), (4), (5), and (6) specify that these 

standards include, but not be limited to, 

the following requirements: 

• Maintaining records of all 

hazardous wastes identified or listed 

under subtitle C that are treated, stored, 

or disposed of, and the manner in which 

such wastes were treated, stored, or 

disposed of; 

• Operating methods, techniques, and 

practices for treatment, storage, or 

disposal of hazardous waste; 

• Location, design, and construction 

of such hazardous waste treatment, 

disposal, or storage facilities; 

• Contingency plans for effective 

action to minimize unanticipated 

damage from any treatment, storage, or 

disposal of any such hazardous waste; 

and 

• Maintaining or operating such 

facilities and requiring such additional 

qualifications as to ownership, 

continuity of operation, training for 

personnel, and financial responsibility 

as may be necessary or desirable. 

The regulations implementing these 

requirements are codified in 40 CFR 

parts 264 and 265. The collection of this 

information enables the EPA to properly 

determine whether owners/operators or 

hazardous waste treatment, storage, and 

disposal facilities meet the requirements 

of Section 3004(a) of RCRA. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: 

Business and other for-profit, as well as 

State, Local, and Tribal governments. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Mandatory (RCRA section 3004). 

Estimated number of respondents: 

1,872. 

Frequency of response: On occasion. 

Total estimated burden: 672,417 

hours. Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.03(b). 

Total estimated cost: $38,978,384 

which includes $38,444,859 annualized 

labor costs and $535,525 annualized 

capital or O&M costs. 

Changes in Estimates: The burden 

hours are likely to stay substantially the 

same.

Director, Office of Resource Conservation and 

Recovery.
