**IDENTIFICATION OF THE INFORMATION COLLECTION** 

# 1(a) **TITLE OF THE INFORMA TION COLLECTION**  This ICR is entitled "Information Requirements for Boilers and Industrial Furnaces (Renewal) ," EPA ICR #1361.1 6 , OMB Control No. 2050

- 0073. 

# 1(b) **SHORT CHA RA**  **CTERIZA TION/A**  **BSTRACT** Section 3004 of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), as amended, requires that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) 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 facilitie s 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 the Code of Fe deral Regulations ( CFR) Title 40, Parts 264 and 265. In addition, section 3005 requires EPA to promulgate regulations requiring TSDFs to obtain a permit. In the event permit modifications are proposed by an applicant or EPA, modifications must conform to the requirements under sections 3004 and 3005. The regulations implementing these requirements are codified at 40 CFR Parts 264 and 270. On February 21, 1991 and August 25, 1992, EPA promulgated regulations at 40 CFR Parts 260, 261, 264, 265, 266, and 270 covering boilers and industrial furnaces (BIFs) burning hazardous waste. 40 CFR Part 266, Subpart H establishes standards for the burning of hazardous waste in BIFs. 40 CFR 270.22 establishes Part B application information requirements for BIFs burning hazardous waste, and section 270.66 establishes permit requirements for BIFs. Owners and operators of BIF facilities must comply with these regulations in addition to those regulations applicable to all hazardous waste facilities, as mentioned above. On September 30, 1999, EPA amended the above regulations with the following provisions:

## 3 

##  Comparable fuel specification: Under 40 CFR 261.38, wastes that meet the comparable fuel specification can be excluded from the definition of solid waste. Generator s claiming the exclusion must demonstrate that the waste meets the specification by submitting a one

time notice. The notice must claim the exclusion, and demonstrate the development and implementation of a waste sampling and analysis plan that supports the comparable fuel specification.

 Lead recovery furnace exemption: Under 40 CFR 266.100(h), lead recovery furnaces that process hazardous waste for the recovery of lead and that are subject to Secondary Lead Smelting National Emissions Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants Regulations, may apply for a conditional exemption from 40 CFR Part 266 regulations. To claim the exemption, the facility owner or operator must submit a one

- time notice identifying each hazardous waste burned and demonstrating that th e waste burned has a total concentration of organic compounds (Listed in 40 CFR Part 261, Appendix VIII) of less than 500 ppm by weight.

 Regulation of residues: Under 40 CFR 266.112(b)(2)(i), in complying with section 268.43 F039 nonwastewater levels for polychlorinated dibenzodioxins and polychlorinated dibenzo

- furans, analyses must be performed for total hexachlorodibenzodioxins, total hexachlorodibenzofurans, total pentachlorodibenzodioxins, total pentachlorodibenzofurans, total tetrachlorodibenzodioxin s, and total tetrachlorodibenzofurans. 

# 2. **NEED FOR A ND USE OF THE COLLECTION**  **2(a) NEED/** **AU THORITY FOR THE COLLECTION**  Regulations covering BIFs and general hazardous waste facilities are promulgated under authority of sections 1006, 2002, 3001 through 3007, 3010, and 7004 of RCRA, as amended. On February 21, 1991 and August 25, 1992, EPA expanded controls on hazardous wa ste combustion to regulate air emissions from the burning of hazardous waste in BIFs, which were previously not regulated. On September 30, 1999, EPA provided exclusions for certain wastes and types of BIFs. These BIF regulations are codified at 40 CFR 2 6 1.38, 40 CFR Part 266, Subpart H, 40 CFR 270.22, and 40 CFR 270.66. This section describes the need and authority for each type of information collection analyzed in this ICR. **COMPARABLE/SYNGAS FUEL SPECIFICATION** EPA promulgated regulations at section 261.38(c) that allow owners and operators of hazardous waste facilities that have waste meeting the comparable/syngas fuel specification to exclude the waste from the definition of solid waste, provided a notification is made and other requirements, including certification, sampling and analysis, and recordkeeping, are met. This information is required to promote beneficial energy recovery.

## GENERAL FACILITY STANDARDS APPLICABLE TO BIFs **General Facility Operating Requirements Foreign Shipment Import Re**  **port** EPA promulgated regulations in sections 264.12(a) and 265.12(a) that require owners and operators of hazardous waste facilities that have arranged to receive hazardous wastes from foreign sources to notify the Regional Administrator in writing at le ast four weeks prior to the expected date of arrival of the shipments at the facility. EPA uses information in the foreign shipment import report to determine: (1) whether hazardous wastes will be transported safely to the United States, and (2) whether t he waste will be managed in a manner that is protective of human health and the environment. The foreign shipment import report requirement contributes to EPA's goal of minimizing detrimental impacts to the environment resulting from the unsafe transportation and management of hazardous waste. **Notice of Appropriate Permits** Section 264.12(b) requires the owner or operator of a facility that receives off

- site waste to send a one - time notice to the generator stating that he or she has the appropriate permits for, and will accept, the waste the generator is shipping. The owner or operator must retain a copy of the notice. The notice is needed to ensure that waste is being managed properly. EPA may examine the notices during inspections to ensure that the notifications are being transmitted. **Notice of Part 264 or 265, and Part 270 Requirements** Sections 264.12(c) and 265.12(b) require owners and operators transferring ownership of a facility during its operating life, to notify the new owner or operator in writing of the requirements of 40 CFR Parts 264 and 270. This information is needed to help new owners and operators understand applicable regulations and facilitate compliance. **Waste Analysis** EPA promulgated regulations in sections 264.13(a) (1) and 265.13(a)(1) that require owners or operators to obtain a detailed chemical and physical analysis of a representative sample of the waste that will be received. Section 266.102(b) requires owners and operators of permitted BIFs to quantify the con centration of any hazardous constituent identified in appendix VIII of Part 261 that may reasonably be expected to be in the waste. Section 266.103(c)(3)(ii)(B) requires owners and operators of interim status BIFs that recycle collected particulate matter to analyze waste for metals content to determine if changes in metal content affect the ability of the facility to meet the metals emissions standards established under section 266.103(c) or (d). EPA and the owner or operator use information obtained in the waste analysis sample to determine: 1) whether the waste meets the permit standards or limitations of the BIF regulations, particularly for metals, HCl, chlorine, and organics, so that a facility can adequately handle incoming waste; and 2) whether the waste is really what the generator claims it to be. The owner or operator also uses information obtained from the waste analysis to determine whether there are any potential dangers from handling the waste. The waste analysis requirement is a principal control for operating parameters, because it is not possible to continuously measure emissions of all compounds. Waste analysis thus contributes to EPA's goal of preventing undetected releases or reactions of hazardous waste on

- site. **Waste Analysis Plan**

## 5



## Sections 264.13(b) and 265.13(b) state that the owner or operator of a hazardous waste facility must develop and follow a written waste analysis plan that describes the procedures to be used in obtaining a detailed chemical and physical analysis of the waste. EPA uses the waste analysis plan as a planning tool to ensure the quality of information obtained from the waste analysis samples required in sections 264.13(a)(1) and 265.13(a)(1). **Inspection Schedule** EPA promulgated regulations in sections 264.15(d) and 265.15(d) that require the owner or operator of a facility to record inspections in an inspection log or summary. EPA and owners and operators use information in the inspection log to determine whether facility equipment is safe for handling hazardous waste. The inspection requirement contributes to EPA's goal of preventing hazardous waste constituents from being released into the environment due to faulty or deteriorated equipment. **Personnel Training**  Sections 264.16(d) and 265.16(d) require owners and operators to maintain copies of personnel training documents and records at the facility. Both EPA and owners and operators use information in personnel training records to determine whether e mployees have acquired the necessary expertise to perform their jobs. EPA also reviews personnel records to determine whether employees are receiving a level of training that is commensurate with their duties and responsibilities as well as their ability to respond to any emergency situations at the facility. Requiring owners and operators to maintain personnel training documents decreases the likelihood that employees are unqualified to handle hazardous waste or respond to emergencies. The personnel rec ordkeeping requirement contributes to EPA's goal of minimizing the potential for employee

-related mistakes that may threaten human health and the environment. **Documentation of Compliance for Ignitable, Reactive or Incompatible Wastes**  Section 264.17(c) states that any owner or operator who treats, stores, or disposes of ignitable or reactive wastes, or mixes incompatible wastes, must document compliance with sections 264.17(a) and (b), which require certain precautions to prevent reactions that will thre aten human health or the environment

. EPA uses information in the documentation of compliance to determine whether facilities are operating in a manner that is protective of human health and the environment. The documentation requirement contributes to E PA's goal of minimizing unanticipated damage from the treatment, storage, or disposal of hazardous waste. **Recordkeeping Requirements** EPA promulgated regulations in 40 CFR 264.73 and 265.73 directing owners or operators of hazardous waste treatment, sto rage, or disposal facilities to keep a written operating record at the facility. Other recordkeeping requirements under 40 CFR Parts 264 and 265, Subpart E, include submitting copies of records of waste disposal locations and quantities under sections 264 .73(b)(2) and 265.73(b)(2) to the Regional Administrator and local land authority upon closure of the facility (§§264.74(c) and 265.74(c)). In addition, 40 CFR 264.37(b) requires facilities to document in the operating record any refusal of State or local authorities to enter into arrangements for emergency situations. EPA uses information collected pursuant to these regulations to select appropriate corrective action and cleanup measures should an unanticipated release of hazardous waste occur. EPA comp liance officials refer to the operating record to

## 6



## determine the following: 1) what cleanup measures are appropriate and 2) whether operating requirements can be better tailored to the needs of a particular site. EPA anticipates that the owner or operator will use information included in the operating record to prevent receiving, or placing in proximity, wastes that are incompatible with other wastes that are likely to ignite or explode. Requiring facilities to develop and maintain an operating record and conduct the recordkeeping activities contributes to EPA's goal of minimizing damage to the environment due to the treatment, storage, or disposal of hazardous waste. **Contingency Plan and Emergency Procedures** Section 3004(a)(5) of RCRA, as amended, requires EPA to develop standards for contingency plans for effective action to minimize unanticipated damage from any treatment, storage, or disposal of any such hazardous waste. EPA codified regulations that addre ss this statutory requirement in 40 CFR Parts 264 and 265. 40 CFR sections 264.51 through 264.54; section 264.56; sections 265.51 through 265.54; and section 265.56 require all owners and operators of hazardous waste facilities to prepare and maintain co ntingency plans, and to notify State and local authorities and prepare emergency reports whenever an imminent or actual emergency situation occurs. EPA reviews the contingency plan and emergency reports to determine whether a facility has developed adequa te procedures to respond to unplanned sudden or non

sudden releases of hazardous waste or hazardous constituents to air, soil, or surface water. Notifications to State and local authorities facilitate remedial actions and evacuations, if necessary. Requiring facilities to develop and maintain contingency plans and prepare emergency response reports and notifications contributes to EPA's goal of minimizing unanticipated damage from the treatment, storage, or disposal of hazardous waste. **Closure Requireme nts**  EPA promulgated regulations in 40 CFR Parts 264 and 265, Subpart G (§§264.112, 264.115, 264.116, and 265.112, 265.113, 265.115, 265.116, and 265.118

- 120), that require owners and operators to develop closure plans, amend these plans when appropriate , and submit to EPA closure certifications. EPA reviews information in the closure plans to determine whether closure activities will comply with the regulatory requirements. EPA uses information in the closure certifications to determine that closure to ok place in accordance with the approved closure plan. In addition, 40 CFR 264.113 and 265.113 allow owners and operators to apply for allowances and extensions during the closure period by preparing and submitting demonstrations. These demonstrations are needed to ensure that any activities taking place during closure are protective of human health and the environment. Requiring facilities to comply with these regulations contributes to EPA's goal of ensuring that all hazardous waste management faci lities are closed in a manner that is protective of human health and the environment, and that minimizes the need for future cleanup efforts. **Financial Requirements** Section 3004(a)(6) of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 (RCRA), as amended, requires EPA to promulgate regulations that include requirements respecting "the maintenance of operations of such facilities and requiring such additional qualifications as to ... financial responsibility (including financial responsibility for corrective action) as may be necessary or desirable." **Closure Financial Assurance Requirements**

## 7



## The need for financial assurance of closure care is indicated by the numerous instances of environmental damage resulting from abandonment of hazardous waste management (HWM) facilities and other failures by owners and operators to provide adequately for c losure care. The likelihood of such failure is increased by the fact that the costs for closure care are expected to commence when the economic value of the facility is either at a minimum or nonexistent. EPA believes that significant numbers of owner s and operators would lack the ability to provide for closure care without effective requirements for financial assurance. Consequently, the Agency developed 40 CFR Parts 264 and 265, Subpart H financial responsibility requirements for closure care. (The requirements in Part 264, Subpart H, are identical to the requirements in Part 265, Subpart H. The remainder of this supporting statement will use the reference to Subpart H as referring to both the Part 264 and Part 265 financial responsibility requirements.) **Liability Requirements** The liability requirements are designed to assure that funds will be available during the operating life of a facility from which third parties can seek compensation for bodily injury and property damage arising from the operation of the facility. The liability requirements are necessary for several reasons. First, the requirements provide protection to human health and the environment by assuring that funds are available to owners and operators to compensate for damage c aused by accidents at hazardous waste facilities, including payments for bodily injury and property damage. In addition, the Agency believes that without liability coverage requirements, there would be less public confidence in and greater opposition to p roposed and existing hazardous waste facilities. The liability requirements also result in other potential benefits for human health and the environment: the incentive, in the form of lower insurance premiums, to improve design and operation of the facil ity, and the oversight that insurers provide over facility operations. **Conditions Applicable to All Permits** EPA promulgated conditions applicable to all permits at 40 CFR Part 270, Subpart C. Information collected under this authority is needed to ensure that permittees are complying with permit conditions, and to determine whether cause exists for modifying, revoking and reissuing, or modifying a permit. **SPECIFIC UNIT REQUIREMENTS FOR BIFs Exemptions from the BIF Regulations**  EPA promulgated regulations in sections 266.100 and 266.108 that allow owners and operators of certain BIF units to apply for an exemption from BIF regulations. Collecting this information contributes to EPA's goal of ensuring that only those facilities that satisfy exem ption requirements be excluded from burning regulations. **Permit Standards** EPA promulgated regulations in section 266.102 covering permitted BIFs. Under section 266.102(e)(8), EPA subjects permitted units to monitoring and inspection requirements. Faci lities with permitted BIF units are required to comply with standards that control the following emissions:

## 8



##  Organic emissions limiting CO emissions, and in some cases, HC emissions to specified levels and demonstrating compliance with a DRE Standard (§266 .104;

 

## Particulate matter emissions by limiting PM emissions to the specified level (§266.105 );



##  Metals emissions by complying with specified Tier I feed rate screening limits, Tier II emission rate screening limits, Tier III site

- specific risk assessments , adjusted Tier I feed rate screening limits, or an alternative implementation approach (§266.106); and

 HCl and Cl 2 

## gas emissions by complying with Tier I feed rate screening limits, Tier II emission rate screening limits, Tier III site

- specific risk asse ssments, or adjusted Tier I feed rate screening limits (§266.107). These requirements contribute to EPA's goal of ensuring that BIF units are being operated in compliance with the terms of their permits and applicable standards. **Interim Status Standards**  EPA promulgated regulations in section 266.103 covering interim status BIFs. EPA needs to collect information from these facilities in demonstrations, the certification of precompliance, and the certification of compliance to ensure that the f acility can be operated in compliance with applicable standards in a manner protective of human health and the environment. However, EPA does not expect any facilities to complete the certification of precompliance or the certification of compliance, as all operating interim status facilities have already submitted the information. In addition, EPA subjects interim status units to monitoring and inspection reports to ensure that BIF units are being operated in compliance with the standards for controlling organic emissions (§266.104), particulate matter (§266.105), metals emissions (§266.106), HCl and Cl 2 

## gas emissions (§266.107), as described above for permitted BIF units. **Standards to Control Organic Emissions** EPA promulgated regulations in section 26 6.104(a)(2) that allow owners and operators to submit a demonstration for an alternative POHC designation. EPA needs to collect this information to ensure that any POHC used is an effective indicator of combustion efficiency. **Standards to Control Metals Emissions**  EPA promulgated regulations in section 266.106(f) that allow owners and operators to submit information in support of an alternative implementation approach. EPA needs to collect this information to ensure that any approach used will work e ffectively and safely. **Direct Transfer Requirements** EPA promulgated regulations in section 266.111 that set forth information requirements for facilities that directly transfer hazardous waste from a transport vehicle to a BIF unit without the use of a storage unit. These requirements contribute to EPA's goal of ensuring that waste is transferred in a manner that minimizes the likelihood of a release. **Regulation of Residues**

## 9



## EPA promulgated regulations in section 266.112 that allow residue that is derived from the burning or processing of hazardous waste to be exempt from being classified as hazardous waste if the owner or operator can demonstrate that the burning of the hazardous waste does not significantly affect the character of the residue. Un der Appendix IX, section 7, an owner or operator may use an alternative statistical approach and an approach for the handling of nondetect data points if he or she prepares and maintains supporting rationale for such an approach. EPA needs to collect this information to ensure that residue generated during the combustion of hazardous waste in BIFs in managed in a manner protective of human health and the environment. **PART B PERMIT APPLICATION AND PERMIT MODIFICATION REQUIREMENTS FOR BIFs General Part B**  **Information Requirements for BIFs** RCRA section 3005 requires EPA to promulgate regulations detailing informational requirements for owners and operators submitting Part B permit applications. EPA promulgated these requirements in 40 CFR Parts 264 and 27 0:

 Section 270.14(a) allows owners and operators to petition EPA for relief from submission of information prescribed in Part B on a case

-by

- case basis by demonstrating that such information cannot be provided to the extent required.

 Section 270.14(b)(1)

- (14) requires owners and operators of hazardous waste management facilities to submit information on compliance with general facility standards in their Part B permit applications.

 Sections 270.14(b)(15)

- (16) require owners and operators of new facilitie s to submit detailed written estimates of the cost of facility closure and post

- closure care in accordance with the requirements of §§264.142(a) and 264.144(a), respectively.

 Sections 270.14(b)(15)

- (16) also require owners and operators to establish and p rovide evidence of financial assurance for facility closure (§264.143) and post

- closure (§264.145). Owners and operators can establish financial assurance with a number of financial instruments.

 Section 270.14(b)(17) requires owners and operators to document the amount of insurance meeting specifications detailed in §264.147(a) and, if applicable, §264.147(b), that are in effect before initial receipt of hazardous waste for treatment, storage, or disposal.

 Section 270.14(b)(18) requires owners and operat ors to provide proof of coverage by a State financial mechanism in compliance with §§264.149 or 264.150, where appropriate. Section 264.149 allows owners and operators to use State

-required financial assurance mechanisms to meet §§264.143, 264.145, or 264 .147 requirements. Section 264.150 requires owners and operators to notify EPA when a State assumes legal responsibility or assures availability of funds for an owner or operator's compliance with the closure, post

- closure care, or liability requirements of this part.

 Section 270.14(b)(19) requires owners and operators to provide a topographic map showing a distance of 1000 feet around the facility.

## 10



##  Section 270.33 establishes informational requirements for owners and operators developing schedules of co mpliance leading to compliance with RCRA regulations. EPA needs this information to determine whether schedules of compliance are reasonable. EPA needs the various Part B permit information to evaluate the compliance of facilities with the permitting standards. These requirements contribute to EPA's goal of insuring that hazardous waste management facilities are operated in a manner fully protective of human health and the environment. **Specific Part B Information Requirements for BIFs** EPA promulgated regulations at 40 CFR 270.66 and 270.22 requiring owners and operators of BIFs to submit specific additional information. **Fugitive Emissions** EPA needs to collect information on all alternative means of fugitive emissions control to ensure that the method desired performs effectively. **Requirements Relating to the Pre -**  **Trial Burn, Trial Burn, and Post -**  **Trial Burn Periods** EPA needs to collect information relating to the various permit operating periods to ensure that the BIF unit can meet the standards set forth in 40 CFR Part 266, Subpart H. EPA needs to collect information on the trial burn to determine whether a facility can comply with emissions standards and to establish permit limits. **Waivers of the Trial Burn** EPA needs to collect information supporting a waiver of a trial burn to ensure that any wavier desired by an applicant is approved only if the prescribed testing is unnecessary. **Alternative HC Limit for Industrial Furnaces with Organic Matter in Raw Materials** EPA needs to collect information for an alternative HC limit to ensure that the limit will be protective of human health and the environment. **Alternative Metals Implementation Approach** EPA promulgated regulations in §§270.22(c) and 266.106(f) that allow owners and operators to submit information in a Part B application in support of an alternative implementation approach. EPA needs to collect this information to ensure that any approach used will work effectively and safely. **Automatic Hazardous Waste Feed Cutoff System**  Under 270.22(d), owners and operators must submit information describing the automatic hazardous waste feed cutoff system. EPA needs this information to ensure that such a system is installed at the facility and that the owner or operator is familiar with its operation. **Direct Transfer Requirements**

## 11



## EPA promulgated regulations in §§270.22(e) and 266.111 that set forth information requirements for facilities that directly transfer hazardous waste from a transport vehicle to a BIF unit without the use of a storage unit. These requirements contribute to EPA's goal of ensuring that waste is transferred in a manner that minimizes the likelihood of a release. **Regulation of Residues** EPA promulgated regulations in §§270.22(f) and 266.112 that all ow residue that is derived from the burning or processing of hazardous waste to be exempt from being classified as hazardous waste if the owner or operator can demonstrate that the burning of the hazardous waste does not significantly affect the character of the residue. EPA needs to collect this information to ensure that residue generated during the combustion of hazardous waste in BIFs in managed in a manner protective of human health and the environment. **Permit Modifications for BIFs Permit Modific**  **ations** EPA promulgated regulations in 40 CFR Part 270 outlining procedures for modification and transfer of permits:

 Compliance with Class 1 modification requirements and submittal of specific financial and contractual information before transferring ownership or operational control of a facility (§270.40(b));

 Specified procedures for owners and operators submitting pe rmit modifications at the request of the Agency (§270.41);

 Specified procedures for owners and operators applying for Class 1 permit modifications (§270.42(a)), and owners and operators applying for Class 2 or 3 permit modifications (§270.42(b)

- (c));

 Specified procedures for owners and operators requesting a classification of a permit modification (§270.42(d)); and

 Specified procedures for owners and operators applying for temporary authorization (§270.42(e)). EPA needs this information to comprehe nsively evaluate whether requests for modifications or transfer of ownership should be granted. The permit modification procedures contribute to EPA's goal of providing a role for the public in the permitting process. In general, these informational requirements aid in meeting EPA's goal of ascertaining and minimizing risks to human health and the environment from hazardous waste management facilities. **Expiration and Continuation of Permits** EPA promulgated regulations in sections 270.50 and 270.51 requiring owners and operators to renew their Part B permit. In order to renew an expiring permit, owners and operators must submit an application containing the information required under section 270.14 and the applicable sections of sections 270.15 through 270.29. The permit renewal process provides EPA with an opportunity to

## 12



## complete an extensive review of the facility permit to determine whether the terms of the permit continue to provide the most appropriate mechanism for protecting human health and the environment. 

# 2(b) **PR ACTIC**  **AL UTILITY/USERS OF THE DA** **TA COMPARABLE/SYNGAS FUEL SPECIFICATION**  EPA uses information collected for comparable/syngas fuel specifications to demonstrate that the facilities meet the necessary requirements and to ensure adequate environmental protection. **GENERAL FACILITY STANDARDS APPLICABLE TO BIFs General Facility O**  **perating Requirements Foreign Shipment Import Report, Notice of Appropriate Permits, and Notice of Part 264 or**  **265, and Part 270 Requirements** EPA uses foreign shipment import reports to determine the quantities and types of hazardous wastes being imported from abroad. Information in the foreign shipment import report also allows EPA to determine whether hazardous wastes will be safely transported and managed. Generators use notices of appropriate permits to ensure that their waste is being managed by a permitted facility. Owners and operators of TSDFs must keep the notices in the operating record, and these notices may be reviewed by EPA during facility inspections. New owners and operators use the notice of Part 264 and Part 270 requirements to im prove their understanding of applicable regulations. **Waste Analysis, Waste Analysis Plan, Inspection Schedule, and Documentation of**  **Compliance** The waste analysis and waste analysis plan, as well as the inspection schedule and documentation of compliance for ignitable or incompatible wastes, are primarily designed to ensure that a facility is complying with the BIF regulations and can adequately handle incoming waste as demonstrated during the trial burn or compliance testing. Information assoc iated with these requirements is also used to ensure that the incoming waste is really what the generator claims it to be, and to prevent unauthorized releases of pollutants during burning of hazardous waste on

- site. Much of the information in the waste analysis plan will also be used to provide a quality assurance check on both the generator and the owners' and operators' facilities. **Personnel Training** Both EPA and owners and operators use information in the personnel training records to ensure that p ersonnel acquire the necessary expertise to perform their jobs. During inspections, EPA reviews job descriptions and training documents to determine whether each person is receiving a level of training that is commensurate with the person's duties and res ponsibilities as well as the ability to respond to any emergency situations at the facility.

## 13



## Recordkeeping Requirements The facility owner or operator uses information included in the operating record and waste disposal location and quantity record s to prevent the facility from receiving or placing in proximity wastes that are incompatible or that are likely to ignite or explode. If an unanticipated release of hazardous waste occurs, the owner or operator may review information in the operating rec ord to determine the composition of the waste. Reviewing information in the operating record facilitates the owner's or operator's selection of an appropriate corrective action and cleanup measure. By providing facility

- specific data, the operating record also enables EPA compliance officials to determine whether operating requirements can be better tailored to the needs of a particular site. **Contingency Plan and Emergency Procedures** Local emergency response teams, certain hazardous waste generators, treatment, storage, and disposal facility owners or operators, and EPA use information included in the contingency plan to assure an appropriate response to any unplanned release of hazardous waste or hazardous waste constituents. EPA reviews information in the contingency plan and emergency report to determine whether additional site

- specific emergency provisions are necessary. **Closure Requirements** EPA uses information contained in closure plans to determine whether an owner or operator's planned clo sure activities will comply with environmental regulations. EPA officials use information contained in closure certifications to ensure that the owner or operator closed his/her facility according to the specifications outlined in the approved closure plan. EPA uses information contained in demonstrations to ensure that any activities taking place during the closure period are protective of human health and the environment. **Financial Requirements** The closure care and liability coverage financial instruments submitted by the owner or operator are reviewed by EPA to determine compliance with the applicable Subpart H regulations. This review involves determinations of the validity of the instrument, acceptability of the financial assurance provider, adequacy of the instrument amount, and fulfillment of the other regulatory requirements. The information is also used to direct funds for closure care and liability coverage in the event of default or bankruptcy of a facility owner or operator. **Conditio ns Applicable to All Permits**  EPA uses data collected from permitted facilities to evaluate compliance with the terms of the permit and to decide whether cause exists for modifying, revoking and reissuing, or terminating the permit. By collecting this information, EPA ensures that permitted facilities are operating in a manner protective of human health and the environment.

## 14



## SPECIFIC UNIT REQUIREMENTS FOR BIFs **Exemptions from the BIF Regulations** EPA uses information collected under sections 266.100 and 266.108 to determine whether a facility complies with the conditions that allow an exemption from BIF regulations. **Permit Standards** EPA uses monitoring and inspection information to ensure that a facility is complying with all the terms of its permit and all applicable standards and conditions, including standards covering the control of organic emissions (§266.104), particulate matter (§266.105), metals emissions (§266.106), HCl and Cl 2 

## gas emissions (§266.107). **Interim Status Standards** EPA uses information submitted as part of a demonstration to evaluate whether an allowance should be granted. EPA uses information collected in the certification of precompliance and certification of compliance to evaluate whether a BIF unit can meet applicable st andards. EPA uses information collected in monitoring and inspection reports to ensure that a BIF unit is being operated in compliance with applicable standards, including standards covering the control of organic emissions (§266.104) particulate matter ( §266.105), metals emissions (§266.106), HCl and Cl 2 

## gas emissions (§266.107). However, EPA does not expect any facilities to complete the certification of precompliance or the certification of compliance, as all operating interim status facilities have already submitted the information. **Standards to Control Organic Emissions** EPA uses information submitted in support of an alternative POHC designation to evaluate whether the proposed POHC can serve as an effective indicator of combustion efficiency. **St andards to Control Metals Emissions**  EPA uses information submitted in support of an alternative implementation approach to evaluate whether the proposed approach can be used effectively and safely. **Direct Transfer Requirements** EPA uses information conc erning the direct transfer of waste to evaluate the equipment used and to ensure that waste is being transferred in a manner that minimizes the likelihood of a release. **Regulation of Residues** EPA uses information submitted in support of an exclusion of residue from being classified as a hazardous waste to evaluate whether such an exclusion is warranted. EPA uses information submitted in support of the use of an alternative statistical approach and an approach for the handling of nondetect data points to ensure that the approaches used are supported by valid data and assumptions.

## PART B PERMIT APPLICATION AND PERMIT MODIFICATION REQUIREMENTS FOR BIFs **General Part B Information Requirements for BIFs** EPA uses the information requirements in 40 CFR Parts 264 and 270 for owners and operators submitting Part B applications to evaluate compliance with various elements of the regulations. For example, the general facility standards informational requirements provide EPA with information demonstrating c ompliance with standards regarding the facility's contingency plan, the inspection schedule, and security procedures. EPA uses the financial assurance information requirements to evaluate the facility owner's financial ability to close the facility, to maintain the facility after closure, and to respond to any contingencies. Owners and operators use schedules of compliance to develop a list of activities needed to come into compliance with the applicable regulations. EPA uses performance test plans and documentation of compliance to ensure that design and operating procedures are in accordance with air emissions standards. **Specific Part B Information Requirements for BIFs Fugitive Emissions**  EPA uses information submitted in support of an alternative means of fugitive emissions control to ensure that the proposed method will perform effectively. **Requirements Relating to the Pre -**  **Trial Burn, Trial Burn, and Post -**  **Trial Burn Periods** EPA uses information relating to the various permit operating periods to evaluate whether the BIF unit can meet the standards set forth in 40 CFR Part 266, Subpart H. EPA uses information submitted in the trial burn plan to evaluate whether a facility's plans are adequate. EPA uses trial burn results to determine whether a facility can meet applicable standards and to set permit conditions. These requirements contribute to EPA's goal of ensuring that facilities can meet the standards set forth in 40 CFR Part 266, Subpart H. **Waivers of the Trial Burn** EPA uses information submitted in support of a waiver of a trial burn to evaluate whether the proposed waiver should be granted, based on human health and environmental considerations. **Alternative HC Limit for Industrial Furnaces with Organic Matter in Raw Materials** EPA uses information submitted in support of an alternative HC limit to evaluate whether the limit will be protective of human health and the environment. **Alternative Metals Implementation Approach** EPA uses information submitted in support of an altern ative implementation approach, as described at §266.103(b), §266.106(f), and appendix IX, section 10, to evaluate whether the proposed approach will work effectively and safely. **Automatic Hazardous Waste Feed Cutoff System**

## 16



## EPA uses information on the automatic hazardous waste feed cutoff system to evaluate whether the system has been installed and is being operated correctly. **Direct Transfer Requirements** EPA uses information collected on direct transfer equipment to evaluate and ensure that the integrity of the equipment and its maintenance and operation minimizes the likelihood of a release. **Regulation of Residues** EPA uses information submitted in support of an exclusion of residue from classification as a hazardous waste to evaluate whether the residue meets the required conditions for exclusion. EPA needs to collect this information to ensure that residue generated during the combustion of hazardous waste in BIFs is managed in a manner protective of human health and the environment. **Permi t Modifications for BIFs**  **Permit Modifications** EPA uses permit information to evaluate the initial permit applications and any subsequent requests for modifications. The public may also use draft EPA permit and permit modification determinations which incorporate data submitted by facilities to assess hazardous waste management facilities being developed in their communities. **Expiration and Continuation of Permits** EPA uses permit renewal applications to ensure that the terms of the facility permit remain protective of human health and the environment. 

# 3. **NONDUPLICA TION, CONSULTA** **TIONS, A ND OTHER**  **COLLECTION CRITERIA 3(a)**  **NONDUPLICA TION**  The information collections covered in this ICR are not available from sources other than the respondents. EPA's Office of Solid Waste is the only office within the Agency collecting this information, and no other Federal agency or department collects this information. In addition, the Office of Solid Waste has systematically reorganized its ICR structure to eliminate gaps or duplication. 

# 3(b) **PUBLIC NOTICE REQUIRED PRIOR TO ICR SUBMISSION TO OMB** In compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, EPA has issued a public notice in the Federal Register ( 7 8 FR 38713 ) on June 27, 2013 ; no comments were received.

## 17



# 3(c) **CONSULTA TIONS**  EPA has made efforts to consult with the regulated community, stakeholders, the public, State and industry officials, and appropriate Federal agencies in the development and subsequent withdrawal of the Comparable Fuel Exclusion (EFC) rule. The stakeholders have been in constant touch regarding the provisions of the ECF, and have been submitting their input on various issues regularly.

# 3(d) **EFFECTS OF LESS FREQUENT COLLECTION**  EPA has carefully considered the burden imposed upon the regulated community by the specific unit and special waste processes and types regulations. Consequently, EPA is confident that those activities required of respondents are necessary, and to the extent possible, minimize the burden imposed. EPA believes strongly that if the minimum requirements specified under the regulations are not met, EPA will be unable to fulfill its Congressional mandate to protect public health and the environment. 

# 3(e) **GENER AL**  **GUIDELINES** This ICR adheres to the guidelines stated in the 1995 Paperwork Reduction Act as amended, OMB's implementing regulations, OMB's Information Collection Request Handbook (EPA, February 1999), and other applicable OMB guidance, e xcept for the records retention period. The BIF regulations require that records be retained until closure of the facility. 

# 3(f) **CONFIDENTIA LITY**  EPA proposes to collect information only to the extent necessary for the implementation of the promulgated rule and does not intend to collect any information related to trade secrets of the stake

holders. Section 3007(b) of RCRA and 40 CFR Part 2, Subpart B define EPA’s general policy on the public disclosure of information, and contain provisions for confidentiality of business information. EPA protects from public disclosure all Confidential Business Information (CBI) obtained under RCRA, and has provided businesses with procedures to claim confidentiality for such CBI. EPA makes extra efforts to protect the confidentiality of this CBI.

In addition, sections 264.53(b) and 265.53(b) require owners and operators to submit a copy of the contingency plan and all revisions to all local police departments, fire departments, hospitals, and State and local emergency response teams that may be called upon to provide emergency services. (ii) Respondent activities : Since permitted facilities submit the contingency plan with the Part B permit application, activities associated with developing and modifying the contingency plan are discussed in the Part B permit applications and permit modifications portion of this ICR. Interim status facilities, however, must prepare contingency plans prior to submitting a permit application; therefore, preparatio n of the contingency plan for these facilities is covered in this general facility standards portion of this ICR. This portion of the ICR

## 31



## also includes submittal of the plan to State and local authorities and recordkeeping activities for both permitted an d interim status facilities. In order to comply with contingency plan requirements, owners or operators are required to perform the following activities:

Appendix IX, section 2 includes information c ollection requirements covering performance specifications for continuous emissions monitoring systems (CEMS). Appendix IX, section 3 includes information collection requirements covering sampling and analytical methods. 40 CFR 266.102(e) specifies operating requirements for BIFs burning hazardous waste. Each of these sections and their

## 58



## associated information collection requirements are discussed below. Appendix IX, section 2 contains procedures that are intended to be used to evaluate the acceptability of the CEMS at the time of its installation or whenever specified in the regulations or permits. Data items associated with Appendix IX, section 2 include the following:

• If the combustion unit is taken out of service during the calibration drift (CD) test period, records of the onset and duration of downtime;

• If periodic automatic or manual adjustments are made to the CEMS zero and calibration settings, a record of the CEMS response immediately after a calibration drift test and a data sheet summarizing the results;

• Records of the time (upscale response time) required to reach 95 percent of the stable value during the calibration drift test;

• Records of the responses of the CEMS at three measurement points;

• Data sheets summarizing results;

• Reports of data from all performance test methods (PTM);

• Records of HC emissions. Appendix IX, section 3 contains procedures for sampling and analysis of metals, hexavalent chromium, HCl and Cl 2 

## , PCDDs and PCDFs, and aldehydes and ketones. This ICR assumes that most Appendix IX, section 3 sampling and analysis will be performed during the trial burn, and has therefore been subsumed under the burden for conducting a trial burn, which is included in the Part B permit application and permit modifications portion of this ICR. However, facilities that choose to use an alternative metals implementation approach, instead of monitoring the feed rate of metals in each feedstream, will need to perform metals emissions monitoring on a daily basis. Data items for these facilities include the following:

• For metals emissions, records of the data for sampling trains; and

• For monitoring of metals, records of emissions data and a laboratory log for all calibrations. Section 266.102(e)(8) requires the owner or operator to maintain the following data items while burning hazardous waste:

## 59

- in period for nonsudden co verage for existing facilities. January 16, 1985 was the final phase

- in date. When financial assurance information is submitted, EPA conducts a review for completeness, then enters the information into the RCRAInfo database. The EPA Regional or State o ffices establish a file for each applicant that contains the submissions. The financial instruments are maintained in a secure area. Submissions are tabulated in the EPA Regional Offices and Headquarters and are used by Agency management to oversee impl ementation of the RCRA financial responsibility requirements. The information is also shared with States to assist them in implementing their hazardous waste management programs. There are no plans to publish information obtained under the Subpart H fina ncial requirements. **Conditions Applicable to All Permits** EPA reviews all information submitted at intervals specified in the permit. This information includes monitoring reports and reports on compliance or noncompliance with compliance schedules. EPA also reviews information that may be submitted on occasion by facilities, if necessary. Such information includes notices of planned physical alterations or additions; notices of planned changes or activities; letters certifying compliance; information c oncerning releases, fires, or explosions; reports of other noncompliance; and corrected or new information.

# 5(b) **COLLECTION METHODOLOGY A ND MA**  **NA GEMENT**  In collecting and analyzing the information required for boilers and industrial furnaces, EPA uses electronic equipment such as personal computers and applicable database software, where appropriate. For information that is kept in facility files rather than submitted, the Agency visits the facility and collect any information that it wishes to review. Agency management of collected information includes

## 114



## review of information, making determinations, and filing and storing the information collected. 

# 5(c) **SM AL**  **L ENTITY FLEXIBILITY** In response to concerns regarding the burden placed on facilities that burn small quantities of hazardous waste, EPA has provided for an exemption under section 3004(q)(2)(B) of RCRA. The Agency has carefully evaluated the risks posed by small quantity burning and concluded that a conditional exemption for small quantity burners should be allowed where hazardous waste combustion poses an insignificant risk. This small quantity burner exemption would therefore reduce the burden placed on small entities. In addition, EPA expects that in certain case s, respondents of small organizations will be able to complete recordkeeping, reporting, and application requirements in less time than large organizations because the permits will not be as detailed, or they will not be required to conduct as many monitoring activities or submit as many reports, because they have fewer activities requiring monitoring and reporting. However, a parallel does not always exist between the size of an organization and the amount of time needed to maintain records or submit reports. EPA has taken steps to minimize the burdens for all facilities, regardless of the size of the business. 

# 5(d) **COLLECTION SCHEDULE COMPARABLE/SYNGAS FUEL SPECIFICATION**  Section 261.38 exempts comparable/syngas fuel from the definition of solid waste. As the submittal of a notice to burn such waste is optional, there is no specialized timeframe for submitting the notice or related records. **GENERAL FACILITY STANDARDS APPLICABLE TO BIFs General Facility Operating Requirements**  The reporting require ments outlined in the regulations will vary according to individual facility circumstances (e.g., when receiving hazardous waste from a foreign source). **Recordkeeping Requirements** Since the operating record is maintained at the facility, discussion of a collection schedule is not applicable. Copies of records of waste disposal are submitted to EPA upon closure of the facility. **Contingency Plan and Emergency Procedures** The conti ngency plan is collected when the permittee submits the Part B permit application. A discussion of the contingency plan collection schedule for permitted facilities is included in the permit application and permit modification portion of this ICR. Since interim status facilities are not required to submit their contingency plans to EPA, discussion of a collection schedule for these facilities is not applicable.

## 115



## The owner or operator must submit a written report of any incident that requires implementation of the contingency plan within 15 days after the incident occurs. The emergency coordinator must immediately notify the appropriate authorities of an imminent or actual emergency situation. **Closure Requirements** Permitted facilities submit their closure plans to EPA when submitting a Part B permit application. A discussion addressing collection schedules for permitted facilities is included in the permit application and permit modification portion of this ICR. Interim status closure plans mus t be submitted according to the following schedules:

• The owner or operator must submit the closure plan to the Regional Administrator at least 180 days prior to the date on which he or she expects to begin closure of the first surface impoundment, waste pile, land treatment, or landfill unit, or final closure if it involves such a unit, whichever is earlier;

• The owner or operator must submit the closure plan to the Regional Administrator at least 45 days prior to the date on which he or she expects to begin final closure of a facility with only tanks, container storage, or incinerator units;

• Owners or operators with approved closure plans must notify the Regional Administrator in writing at least 60 days prior to the date on which they expect to begin closure of a surface impoundment, waste pile, landfill, or land treatment unit, or final closure of a facility involving such a unit;

• Owners and operators with approved closure plans must notify the Regional Administrator in writing at least 45 days prior to the date on which they expect to begin final closure of a facility with only tanks, container storage, or incinerator units;

• The owner or operator must submit the closure plan to the Regional Administrator no later than 15 days after:

• Termin ation of interim status except when a permit is issued simultaneously with termination of interim status; or

• Issuance of a judicial decree or final order under §3008 of RCRA to cease receiving hazardous wastes or close. Both interim status and permitted facilities are required to submit closure certifications according to the following schedule:

• The owner or operator must submit a certification of closure to the Regional Administrator within 60 days of final closure. **Financial Requirements** For closure cost estimates, owners or operators must prepare initial cost estimates for activities

## 116



## identified in the closure plans. Thereafter, owners or operators must provide annual adjustments of these cost estimates to account for inflation. Also, o wners or operators may be required to prepare new cost estimates, if changes in the closure plan increase closure costs. This burden will vary from facility to facility. For closure care financial instruments, owners or operators must initially establish a financial instrument(s) assuring the cost of closure care. Thereafter, owners or operators must annually check the amount covered by the instrument(s) to make sure it equals the adjusted cost estimate, and change the amount assured accordingly. Fo r liability coverage requirements, owners or operators of facilities identified in sections 264.147 and 265.147 must initially demonstrate liability coverage for sudden and nonsudden accidents during the facilities' active life. Some of the financial instruments for liability coverage require additional reporting on an annual basis; for example, owners or operators must annually submit documentation to EPA supporting the use of the financial test or guarantee. Furthermore, owners or operators may also have to provide information due to varying circumstances; for example, whenever a claim for bodily injury or property damages caused by a hazardous waste treatment, storage, or disposal facility is made. **Conditions Applicable to All Permits** EPA collects in formation from permitted facilities at intervals specified in the permit. EPA may also collect other information if the Agency determines that it needs information to determine whether a permit should be terminated, revoked and reissued, or modified. EPA may collect additional information from permitted facilities if noncompliance with permit conditions occurs. **SPECIFIC UNIT REQUIREMENTS FOR BIFS Exemptions from the BIF Regulations**  Section 266.100 exempts from BIF regulations certain furnaces engaged in metal or lead recovery, smelting, melting, and refining, and BIFs that burn small quantities of hazardous waste on site. As the submittal of such a demonstration is optional, there is no specified time frame for submitting these demonstrations. **Permit Standards**  **Monitoring and Inspections** Appendix IX, section 2 specifies testing and reporting procedures that must be followed to ensure that continuous emissions monitoring systems are installed and operated properly. The results of these tests must b e reported to EPA prior to burning, and at times specified in the regulations and the facility's permit. There is no specified schedule for demonstrations submitted under Appendix IX, section 2. Appendix IX, section 3 specifies monitoring and recording procedures that must be followed during burning of hazardous waste. With the exception of audit samples, which must be submitted with the results of compliance samples in relevant reports, this information is not submitted to EPA, but may be reviewed by the Agency during facility inspections. There is no specified schedule for demonstrations submitted under Appendix IX, section 3. There is no specified schedule for submittal of demonstrations performed under section 266.103(e)(8).

## 117



## Recordkeeping Section 266.102(e)(10) requires owners and operators of BIFs to maintain all information and data collected under this section until closure of the facility. While this data is not submitted to EPA, the Agency may review records during facility inspection s. **Interim Status Standards Purpose, Scope, and Applicability**  Facilities that wish to apply for an allowance to burn hazardous waste with a heating value of less than 5,000 Btu/lb must submit documentation to EPA before commencing burning operations. **Certification of Precompliance** Appendix IX, section 9.4 requires facilities to submit, upon request, a record of all assumptions and calculations necessary to justify the air pollution control system removal efficiency used. Section 266.103(b)(1)

- (2) requires facilities to submit the certification of precompliance to EPA on or before August 21, 1991. There is no schedule for submission of a revised certification of precompliance; however, owners and operators may submit such information to revise info rmation on operating conditions at any time. **Certification of Compliance** Section 266.103(c)(2) requires BIF owners and operators to provide a notification to EPA at least 30 days prior to compliance testing. Within 90 days after completion of compli ance testing, owners and operators must submit a certification of compliance. This certification of compliance must be submitted by August 21, 1992, unless the owner or operator applies for and receives an automatic or case

-by

- case extension. An automati c extension extends the deadline for submittal of the certification of compliance until August 23, 1993. A case

-by

- case extension may be granted in lieu of or after an automatic extension. The length of this extension is established by the Agency. Section 266.103(c)(3)(i) allows BIF owners and operators, upon approval from the Agency, to submit data from one unit in lieu of compliance testing data for a similar unit operating under similar conditions. Owners and operators must submit information in support of this testing exemption and submit data from the similar unit on the same submission schedule as a certification of compliance. As owners and operators may make revisions to the certification of compliance at any time, there is no specified schedule for submission of a revised certification of compliance. However, at least 30 days prior to first burning hazardous waste under operating conditions that exceed those established under a current certification of compliance, the owner or operator must submit a notification. **Periodic Recertifications** Section 266.103(d) requires owners and operators of BIF facilities to submit a recertification of compliance within three years from submitting the previous certification or recertification.

## 118



## Autom **atic Hazardous Waste Feed Cutoff System** While records of operating parameters recorded during a hazardous waste feed cutoff are not submitted to EPA, EPA may review such records during facility inspections. **Monitoring and Inspections** Appendix IX, section 2 specifies testing and reporting procedures that must be followed to ensure that continuous emissions monitoring systems are installed and operated properly. The results of these tests must be reported to EPA prior to burning, and at times specif ied in the regulations. There is no specified schedule for demonstrations submitted under Appendix IX, section 2. Appendix IX, section 3 specifies monitoring and recording procedures that must be followed during burning of hazardous waste. With the exc eption of audit samples, which must be submitted with the results of compliance samples in relevant reports, this information is not submitted to EPA, but may be reviewed by the Agency during facility inspections. There is no specified schedule for demons trations submitted under Appendix IX, section 3. In addition, there is no specified schedule for submittal of demonstrations performed under section 266.103(e)(8). **Recordkeeping** Section 266.103(k) requires owners and operators of BIFs to maintain all information and data collected under this section until closure of the facility. While this data is not submitted to EPA, the Agency may inspect records during facility inspections. **Standards to Control Organic Emissions** Section 266.104(a)(2) requires owners and operators that wish to use as a POHC a compound that is not listed in Appendix VIII to submit a demonstration and receive approval before using such a compound. There is no specified submission schedule. **Standards to Control Metal Emissions** Section 266.106(f) requires owners and operators that wish to use an alternative implementation approach for metals to submit a demonstration.

# 6. **ESTIM AT**  **ING THE BURDEN AND COST OF THE COLLECTION**  **6(a) ESTIM**  **AT ING RESPONDENT BURDEN**  EPA estimates respondent burden hours associated with all of the information collection requirements covered in this ICR in Exhibits 2 through 6. These exhibits show the average number of hours required to conduct the information collection activity and the average cost associated with each requirement. Exhibit 7 summarizes the total respondent burden and costs and provides annual bottom

- line burden and costs associated with all information collection requirements applicable to facilities with BIF units. The estimated burden and cost represents the average burden and cost incurred by a facility with BIF units. In developing these estimates, EPA recognizes that the burden for each facility will vary, depending on the numbe r, capacity, and complexity of the BIF units at the facility. Consequently, the burden estimates included in this ICR neither supersede existing technical guidance nor constitute new

## guidance on the frequency or cost of complying with the information coll ection requirements associated with the BIF regulations. 

# 6(b) **ESTIM AT**  **ING RESPONDENT COSTS Labor Costs**  For purposes of this analysis, EPA estimates an average hourly respondent labor cost of $ 156.98 for legal staff, $ 112.47 for managerial staff, $ 62. 58 for technical staff, and $ 35.99 fo r clerical staff. These wage rates are based on salaries, overhead and fringe benefits for the industries listed in section 4.a. “Respondent NAICS Codes”, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics labor rates for 201 2. **Annual Capital and Operation & Maintenance Costs** Capital costs usually include any produced physical good needed to provide the needed information, such as machinery, computers, and other equipment. Capital costs incurred by respondents in this ICR include the cost to buy a monitor, sampling system, and data acquisition system for respondents required to conduct monitoring and inspections of hazardous waste. These costs are based on annualized costs used in ICR #1361. 15 , and have been updated to 20 13 levels using the Consumer Price Index. Operation and maintenance (O&M) costs are those costs associated with a paperwork requirement incurred continually over the life of the ICR. They are defined by the PRA as “the recurring dollar amount of costs a ssociated with O&M or purchasing services.” O&M costs covered in this ICR include the following:

• Mailing or long

- distance phone call (estimated at $ 4.4 0 per response);

• Photocopying and document storage overhead (estimated at $.15 per page); and

• Laboratory analysis varies. These costs are based on O&M costs used in ICR #1361. 15 , and have been updated to 20 13 levels using the Consumer Price Index. 

# 6(c) **ESTIM AT**  **ING A GENCY BURDEN A**  **ND COST** EPA estimates an average hourly Agency labor cost of $76.38 for Regional legal staff, $54.94 for Regional managerial staff, $38.56 for Regional technical staff, and $23.44 for Regional clerical staff. EPA used the 2012 Federal Pay Schedule salary figures to estimate annual compensation of Regional legal, manageri al, technical, and clerical staff. For purposes of this ICR, EPA assigned Regional staff the following government service levels: Legal staff GS
- 15, Step 1 Managerial staff GS
- 13, Step 1 Technical staff GS
- 11, Step 1 Clerical staff GS
- 06, Step 1

## EPA estimates annual Agency burden hours and costs associated with all the requirements covered in this ICR in Exhibits 8

- 11. Exhibit 8 covers general facility standards, Exhibit 9 covers specific unit requirements for BIFs, and Exhibit 10 covers Part B p ermit application and permit modification requirements. Exhibit 11 is a summary table of the bottom line Agency burden and cost. 

# 6(d) **ESTIM AT**  **ING THE RESPONDENT UNIVERSE A ND TOTA**  **L BURDEN A**  **ND COSTS**

B ased on data compiled from the EPA Regions, EPA estimated that, over the three

- year period covered by ICR 1361. 1 6 , there will be, on average, 114 BIF facilities in operation or in the process of closing (i.e., 4 2 interim status facilities and 72 permitted facilities).

**COMPARABLE/SYNGAS FUEL SPECIFICATION (Exhibit 2)** Exhibit 2 presents the estimated respondent burden and cost associated with hazardous waste listing exemptions for facilities with BIF units. To qualify for the exclusion under section 261.38, generators must demonstrate that the waste meets the comparabl e/syngas fuel specification by submitting a one - time notice to EPA or the appropriate State. **GENERAL FACILITY STANDARDS APPLICABLE TO BIFs (Exhibits 3A -**  **3F)** Exhibits 3A

- 3F present the estimated respondent burden and cost associated with general faci lity standards for facilities with BIF units. Facilities with permitted and interim status BIF units will be subject to certain general facility standards of 40 CFR Parts 264 and 265. **General Facility Operating Requirements (Exhibit 3A) Foreign**  **Shipment Import Report Notice of Appropriate Permits**  EPA estimates that approximately 1 5 percent of operating BIFs accept off

- site waste. These commercial facilities must submit a one

- time notice to these generators before accepting their waste. **N otice of Part 264 or Part 265, and Part 270 Requirements** 

## 125



## EPA estimates that no facilities with a BIF unit will experience a transfer in ownership each year. The owners and operators of these facilities will be required to submit a notice of Part 264 or 265 and Part 270 requirements to the new owner or operator of the facility. **Waste Analysis** Only operating facilities are required to conduct waste analysis testing. EPA has information from its Regional offices that indicates that commercial incinerator and land disposal sites have the greatest responsibility for waste analysis. However, it is assumed that the commercial facilities (that are mostly cement of lightweight aggregate kilns) will be burdened under a separate ICR because they are in compliance with 40CFR Part 63, Subpart EEE standards. **Waste Analysis Plan** This ICR assumes that all currently operating facilities with BIF units will have already developed a waste analysis plan. [This ICR assumes that all facilities with new BIF units will develop this information as part of the Part B permit application. This burden is covered in the Part B application and modifications portion of this ICR.] In addition to preparing a waste analysis plan, all operating BIF facilities must also maintain (i.e., photocopy and file) the plan at the facility until closure. **Inspection Schedule** This ICR assumes that all currently operating interim status facilities with BIF units already developed an inspection schedule. Thus, zero facilities will develop this schedule during interim status before the Part B permit application is submitted. [This ICR assumes that all facilities with new BIF units will submit this information as part of the Part B permit application. This burden is covered in the Part B application and modifications portion of this ICR.]
**Personnel Training**  This ICR assumes that all currently operating interim status facilities with BIFs have already developed a personnel training program. [This ICR assumes that all facilities with new BIF units will submit this information as part of the Part B p ermit application. This burden is covered in the Part B application and modifications portion of this ICR.] **Documentation of Compliance for Ignitable, Reactive, or Incompatible Wastes** Based on previous experience, EPA estimates that 85% of all facilities with permitted BIF units, or an average of 50 facilities during the period covered by this ICR, will have to maintain documentation of compliance for ignitable, reactive, or incompatible wastes until closure of the facility. **Recordkeeping Requirements (Exhibit 3B)**  **Operating Record Requirements**

## 126



## Only operating facilities are required to comply with the operating record recordkeeping requirements. There are sixteen information components of the operating record requirements contained in 40 CFR §§ 264.73(b)(1)

- (16) and 265.73(b)(1)

- (16). Some of the requirements apply only to certain types of facilities, while others apply to all operating facilities. Requirements applicable to BIF units are described below. An estimated 85% of all oper ating facilities must record a description and quantity of each hazardous waste received, and the method(s) and date(s) of its treatment, storage, and disposal (§§264.73(b)(1) and 265.73(b)(1)). All operating facilities must also describe the location of each hazardous waste within the facility and the waste's quantity (§§264.73(b)(2) and 265.73(b)(2)), and maintain records and results of waste analyses until closure of the facility (§§264.73(b)(3) and 265.73(b)(3)). Facilities that have emergency incidents requiring implementation of the contingency plan must maintain (i.e., photocopy and file) written documentation of the incident until closure of the facility (§§264.73(b)(4) and 265.73(b)(4)). EPA estimates that 1 BIF (permitted) will experience an emergency incident and be required to comply with this regulation. An estimated 85% of all operating BIF facilities are required to maintain updated inspection information in the operating record until closure of the facility (264.73 and 265.73(b)( 5)). Only facilities that receive hazardous waste from an off

- site source are required to maintain (i.e., photocopy and file) until closure all notices for generators verifying that they have a permit to handle the hazardous waste they are receiving (§ §264.73(b)(7) and 265.73(b)(7)). Thus, EPA has determined that 15 percent of the operating BIF universe will need to maintain until closure, in the operating record, the notice to generators. All operating BIF facilities will need to maintain a closure cost estimate in the operating record until closure of the facility (§§264.73(b)(8) and 265.73(b)(7)). All facilities with permitted BIF units will need to maintain until closure in the operating record a certification of waste minimization efforts (§2 64.73(b)(9)). All facilities will meet with State and local authorities annually to discuss emergency arrangements (§264.37(b)). These facilities also must document any refusal of State and local agencies to enter into arrangements to address emergency situations (§264.14(b)). EPA estimates that only one percent of all operating BIF facilities will be required to comply with this regulation. **Contingency Plan and Emergency Procedures (Exhibit 3C) Contingency Plan Requirements**  This ICR assumes that all currently operating facilities with BIF units have already developed a contingency plan. [This ICR assumes that all facilities with new BIF units will submit this information as part of the Part B permit application. This burden is covered in the Part B application and modifications portion of this ICR.] In addition, EPA estimates that 20 percent of all BIF facilities will amend their contingency plans annually and submit it to the local authorities. In addition to preparing a contingency plan, 85% of all operating BIF facilities must also maintain (i.e., photocopy, file, and update) the plan at the facility until closure.

## 127



## Emergency Reporting and Recordkeeping Requirements Based on program experience, the Agency estimates that one percent of all facilities will experience an emergency situation each year that will require the help of State or local authorities with designated response roles. Therefore, approximately one facility with permitted units and zero facilities wi th interim status units will be required to notify these authorities of an actual or imminent emergency situation (§§264.56(a)(2) and 265.56(a)(2)) each year. EPA estimates that no facilities experiencing an emergency situation will have a release, fire, or explosion for which the emergency coordinator determines that it may be advisable to evacuate local areas (§§264.56(d)(1) and 265.56(d)(1)). EPA estimates that one percent of BIF facilities will notify either a government official designated as the o n - scene coordinator or the National Response Center of a release, fire, or explosion (§§264.56(d)(2) and 265.56(d)(2)). EPA estimates that only one percent of all facilities will have emergency incidents requiring implementation of the contingency plan. Therefore, approximately one facility with permitted units and zero facilities with interim status units will be required to prepare this notification. All owners and operators experienc ing an emergency situation are required to notify the Regional Admin istrator that the facility is in compliance before resuming operation in the affected areas. The owner or operator of these facilities must also submit a written report to the Regional Administrator 15 days after the incident (§§264.56(j) and 265.56(j)). [The respondent burden for recording emergency details in the operating record is covered in the operating record section.] **Closure Requirements (Exhibit 3D)** EPA estimates that two interim status BIF facilities will initiate closure annually during the period covered by this ICR. **Reading the Regulations** All operating BIF facilities are expected to read the closure regulations each year. **Closure Plans** This ICR assumes that all currently operating interim status facilities with BIF units already developed the closure plan. [This ICR assumes that all facilities with new BIF units will submit this information as part of the Part B permit application. This burden is covered in the Part B application and modifications portion of this ICR.] **Notific ation and Amendment of the Closure Plan**  EPA estimates that five percent of facilities with BIF units will amend their closure plans annually and will submit a request to the Regional Administrator to authorize a change in the closure plan. Thus, zero fa cilities with interim status units will submit a closure plan amendment. [Since closure plan amendments for permitted units are associated with permit modifications, amendments are covered in the Part B applications and modifications section of this ICR.]

## 128



## Partial Closure and Final Closure Notification All owners and operators who intend to close their facility annually must notify EPA of closure. Thus, EPA expects two facilities with BIFs to submit a closure plan during the period covered by this ICR. **Extensions and Allowances During the Closure Period** EPA expects that five percent of the facilities intending to close their facility will apply for each of the exemptions. Thus, zero facilities will submit the paperwork associated with the exemptions. **Closure Certification** EPA does not expect any of the facility to complete closure activities within the three years covered by this ICR **Financial Requirements (Exhibit 3E) Reading the Regulations**  All facilities with BIF units are expected to read the financial requirements regulations. **Financial Responsibility for Corrective Action** Because financial responsibility for corrective action is required under Part 264, only permitted units are included in the burden estimate. Roughly 80 percent o f permitted facilities complete a RCRA Facility Assessment (RFA) that indicated that further investigation, or a RCRA Facility Investigation (RFI), was necessary. These facilities will need to include this financial assurance documentation in their permit renewals; because most TSDF permits are valid for five years, EPA estimates that each year approximately 20 percent will submit financial assurance documentation for corrective action. EPA estimates that ten percent of these facilities per year w ill need to provide the additional demonstration of denied permission to implement corrective action beyond facility boundaries. **Cost Estimates for Closure Care** This section covers the burden for owners or operators to collect data, prepare the written cost estimate, update cost estimates on a yearly basis to reflect inflation, amend cost estimates due to changes in the closure care plan, and maintain closure cost estimates and any adjustments until closure. All interim status facilities already prepared the cost estimate. All BIF facilities will adjust estimates annually to reflect inflation. For amendments of cost estimates due to changes in closure plans, EPA estimates that five percent of all facilities with interim status units will amend their closure plans annually. [Since closure plan amendments for permitted units are associated with permit modifications, such amendments are instead discussed in the Part B permit applications and modification section of this ICR.] **Closure Financial Assurance Requirements** Because evidence of establishing a financial instrument for closure care may be submitted with the Part B permit application, such activities for f acilities with new BIF units are discussed in the Part B permit applications and modification portion of this ICR. However, prior to submitting a permit application, facilities with interim status BIF units must present evidence of an established financial instrument for

## 129



## closure care under §§265.143. In addition, the burden associated with annual updates or modifications to instruments for financial assurance is calculated in this exhibit for both permitted and interim status facilities. This ICR assume s that all interim status facilities with BIF units will already have submitted financial assurance documentation. Thus, zero facilities will perform the activities discussed above. However, five percent of interim status facilities will amend the trust fund documentation due to changes in the closure plan

. EPA estimates that approximately zero facilities with interim status BIF units and zero facilities with permitted units will have to amend the closure trust fund. EPA projects that five percent of all facilities with BIF units will amend closure financial instruments due to changes in the cost estimates or plans. Therefore, EPA estimates that five percent of the facilities choosing each of these financial instruments will need to modify the amounts covered by each instrument. Finally, all facilities covered under the financial test will need to submit annual updates; accordingly, 50 percent of operating facilities will submit this update (as the other 50% use the financial test to comply with liabil ity coverage requirements). EPA estimates that two percent of all facilities with BIFs will prepare a notification of reduction of liability coverage. **Liability Requirements** EPA calculates the number of respondents for demonstrating liability coverage in a manner similar to determining the number of closure care respondents. Because evidence of establishing a financial instrument for liability coverage may be submitted with the Part B permit application, such activities for facilities with new BIF units are discussed in the Part B permit application and permit modification portion of this ICR. However, prior to submitting a permit application, facilities with interim status BIF units must present evidence of an established financial instrument for liability coverage under §265.147. In addition, the burden associated with annual updates or modifications to financial instruments for liability coverage is calculated in this exhibit for both permitted and interim status facilities. EPA assumes th at all interim status BIF facilities have already submitted the requirements discussed above. EPA expects that all BIF facilities using the financial test or guarantee will submit the financial test documentation on an annual basis for review. EPA es timates that one percent of all facilities with BIFs will become bankrupt and will need to submit evidence of insurance. EPA estimates, based on earlier estimates, that no facilities with BIF units will submit claim notifications. **Incapacity of Owners o r Operators, Guarantors, or Financial Institutions**  As discussed above, the average bankruptcy rate of one percent will generate zero facilities with permitted units and zero facilities with interim status units to the requirements for the incapacity of owners or operators, guarantors, or financial institutions. **Use of State -**  **Required Mechanisms and State Assumption of Responsibility** EPA estimates that no facilities with BIF units will choose to use State

-required mechanisms and State assumption of resp onsibility for financial requirements.

## 130



## Conditions Applicable to All Permits (Exhibit 3F) EPA estimates that each year 30 percent of all facilities with permitted BIF units will submit a permit modification at the request of the Agency. These permittees will be required to furnish any relevant information requested by EPA to determine whether cause exists to modify, revoke and reissue, or terminate a permit, or to determine compliance with a permit. EPA estimates that five percent of facilities with permitted BIF units will annually submit a notice of physical alterations or additions. Of these facilities, 50 percent will submit a notice of planned changes that may result in noncompliance with permit requirements. Of these facilities, 50 percent will submit a letter each year certifying that the facility has been constructed or modified in compliance with the terms of the permit. EPA estimates that all facilities with permitted BIF units will submit monitoring reports. EPA further estimates that 10 percent of facilities with permitted BIF units will be required to prepare and submit repo rts of compliance and noncompliance with the compliance schedule at intervals specified in the permit. EPA estimates that ten percent of all facilities with BIF units will experience a release, fire, or explosion that may threaten drinking water suppli es, human health, or the environment outside the facility. These facilities will be required to submit a report within 24 hours of the incident and a more detailed written notice or report within 5 or 15 days, respectively, of the incident. EPA estimate s that 20 percent of all facilities with permitted BIF units will be required to submit reports of other noncompliance that are not submitted with monitoring reports, compliance schedule reports, and reports of releases, fires, and explosions. An addition al ten percent will submit amended information that was incorrect or omitted during an initial submittal. **SPECIFIC UNIT REQUIREMENTS FOR BIFs (Exhibit 4)** Exhibit 4 presents estimated respondent burden and cost associated with specific unit requirements for BIFs. This section discusses the estimated respondent universe for facilities with BIF units subject to the specific unit requirements of 40 CFR Part 266, Subpart H. **Exemptions from the BIF Regulations** 40 CFR 266.100 and 266.108 exempt certain BIFs from BIF regulations promulgated at 40 CFR Part 266, Subpart H, and sections 270.22 and 270.66. For one

- time requirements, this ICR covers only those facilities that will be applying for an exemption during the period covered by this ICR (i.e., facilitie s that have already applied for such an exemption are not accounted for in the respondent burden in this ICR). For on

- going requirements related to exemptions from the BIF regulations (e.g., sampling and analyzing hazardous waste), this ICR covers both th ose facilities that have already received exemptions and those that are expected to apply for such an exemption during the period covered by this ICR. **Exemptions for Metal Recovery Furnaces** EPA estimates that 21 facilities are currently operating under a metal recovery furnace exemption. These facilities are expected to read the regulations, sample and analyze hazardous waste three times each

## 131



## year and maintain records until closure of the fa cility. In addition to the activities described above, new facilities would be required to submit a one

- time notice (facilities that currently operate under an exemption have already incurred this burden and therefore are not burdened in this ICR). Any facility that is a lead or nickel

- chromium recovery furnace or a metal recovery furnace that burns baghouse bags used to capture metallic dusts emitted by steel manufacturing would have to submit an additional one

- time notice. **Exemptions for Smelting, Melt ing, and Refining Furnaces**  **that recover precious metals** EPA estimates that nine facilities are currently operating under an exemption for smelting, melting, and refining furnaces. These facilities are expected to read the regulations, sample and analyze hazardous waste three times each year and maintain records until closure of the facility. In addition to the activities described above, these facilities will submit a one

- time notice (facilities that currently operate under an exemption have already incurred this burden and therefore are not burdened in this ICR). **Lead Recovery Furnace Exemption** To claim the lead recovery exemption, the facility owner must submit a one

- time notice to EPA. EPA estimates that currently no facility will claim the lead recovery furnace exemption. Because no facilities will complete the exemption requirement under section 266.100(h), this requirement does not contribute to the bottom

- line burden of this ICR. **Small Quantity On -**  **Site Burner Exemption** F acilities applying for this exemption are expected to read the regulations, gather and analyze data three times each year and maintain records until closure of the facility. In addition to the activities described above, these facilities will submit a one

- time notice (faci lities that currently operate under an exemption have already incurred this burden and therefore are not burdened in this ICR). **Permit Standards Monitoring and Inspections**  40 CFR 266.102(e)(8) and Appendix IX, sections 2 and 3 contain monitoring and i nspection requirements for BIF units and equipment, hazardous waste feed, and stack emissions. EPA estimates the respondent universe for each of these requirements as follows:

• EPA estimates that 85% of facilities with permitted BIF Units 2 

## will perform the following activities to comply with Appendix IX, section 2 requirements:

• Test the calibration drift (CD), response time (RT), calibration error (CE) test procedure, and relative accuracy (RA) test procedure (Appendix IX, sections 2.1 and 2.2), including a daily calibration check for each monitor (2.1.10.1 and 2.2.9.1) and a dai ly system audit (2.1.10.2 and 2.2.9.2), and provide the required maintenance for monitoring systems; since much of this work is typically

2 

## For this section it is estimated that 15% of BIFS (permitted and interim status) are cement kilns or lightweight aggregate kilns that are no longer subject to these requirements because they have met 40CFR Part 63 subpart EEE requirements.

## 132 

## performed by sophisticated monitoring systems, EPA estimates that technical staff typically spend an hour per day ensuring that monitoring equipment is operating properly

.

• Record the CEMS response immediately after a calibration drift test (Appendix IX , sections 2.1.6.1.1 and 2.2.6.1.1);

• Record the time (upscale response time) required to reach 95 percent of the sta ble value during the CD test (Appendix IX, sections 2.1.6.2.1 and 2.2.6.2.1);

• Record the responses of the CEMS at three measurement points (Appendix IX, sections 2.1.6.3.1.2 and 2.2.6.3.1.2);

• Summarize results on data sheets (Appendix IX, sections 2. 1.6.1.2, 2.1.6.3.2, 2.1.6.4.5, 2.2.6.1.2, and 2.2.6.3.2);

• Prepare a report of the data from all performance test methods (Appendix IX, section 2.1.6.4.3); and

• Prepare and submit a report of the results of the CD, RA, response time, and CE test, as appropriate (Appendix IX, sections 2.1.8 and 2.2.8);

• EPA estimates that ten percent of facilities with permitted BIF units will need to take the combustion unit out of service during the calibration drift test period and record the onset and duration of downtime (Appendix IX, section 2.1.5.2 and 2.2.5.2);

• EPA estimates that five percent of facilities with BIF units will request approval for an alternative relative accuracy procedure (Appendix IX, section 2.1.9.2;

• EPA estimates that five percent of facilities with BIF units will request approval for an alternative calibration procedure (Appendix IX, section 2.1.10.1 and 2.2.9.1);

• EPA expects that all facilities with new BIF units will develop a quality assurance (QA) program to evaluate and monito r CEMS performance (Appendix IX, sections 2.1.10 and 2.2.9) [EPA expects that all facilities with existing BIF units will develop such a plan under interim status];

• EPA expects 85% of all facilities with permitted BIF units to carry out the QA plan by c onducting a quarterly CE test (2.1.10.3 and 2.2.9.3) (for a total of 201 activities) and an annual specification test (2.1.10.4 and 2.2.9.4);

• EPA estimates that five facilities with permitted BIF units will use an alternative metals implementation appro ach. These facilities will perform the following activities once each working day (330 times per year) to comply with Appendix 3 requirements 3 

## :

3 

## The respondent universe for each of these requirements reflects EPA's estimate that facilities that use an alternative implementation approach for metals will conduct each activity 330 times a year, or once each operating day. Thus, EPA estimates that e ach of these activities will be performed 1,500 times (5 x 330).

## 133 

## • Determine emissions of metals (Appendix IX, section 3.1);
• Record data for metals sampling trains (Appen dix IX, section 3.1.5.1.5); and

• For monitoring of metals, record emissions data and maintain a laboratory log for all calibrations (Appendix IX, section 3.1.6).

• EPA estimates that 85% of all facilities with permitted BIF units will perform the follo wing activities regularly to comply with 40 CFR 266.102(e)(8) requirements:

• Conduct monitoring and inspections of hazardous waste, other fuels and feedstock, and stack gas emissions (§266.102(e)(8)(i));

• Inspect the BIF and associated equipment at least each working day (§266.102(e)(8)(iii)); and

• Record monitoring and inspection data (§266.102(e)(8)(v)). Capital and O&M costs associated with these activities include the purchasing and maintenance of continuous emissions monitors, sampling equipment, and a data aquisition system. The estimated purchase price of the equipment is $ 101,547
.

• EPA estimates that ten percent of facilities with permitted BIF units will demonstrate that weekly inspections of the hazardous waste feed cut off system would unduly restrict or upset operations, and will receive approval for monthly inspections. EPA expects that these facilities will be granted approval to perform inspections every 30 days, for a total of 48 (4 x 12) activities. EPA expects the remaining 50 facilities with permitted BIF units to inspect their hazardous waste feed cutoff system weekly, for a total of 2, 756 ( 50 x 52) activities. **Recordkeeping** EPA expects all facilities with permitted BIF units to comply with recordkeeping requirements. **Interim Status Standards Purpose, Scope, and Applicability**  EPA estimates that one industrial furnace feed s hazardous waste for a purpose other than solely as an ingredient at any location other than the hot end where products are normally discharged or where fuels are normally fired. This furnace is assumed to be non

- commercial facility that performs tests 12 times annually, for a total of 12 activities. This facility must also determine that adequate oxygen is present in combustion gases to combust organic constituents in the waste and retain documentation in the operating record until closure of the facility. EPA expects 85% all facilities with interim status units will conduct analyses and maintain records until closure documenting that impermissible dilution or blending has not occurred. EPA estimates that each year five percent of facilities with int erim status BIFs will seek an allowance for burning hazardous waste that has a heating value of less than 5,000 Btu/lb, and 20 percent of these facilities (zero facilities)

## 134



## will seek an allowance for burning such waste in a halogen acid furnace. 

# Certification of Precompliance This I CR assumes that no facilities subject to the BIF regulations comply with certification of precompliance regulations any more. Thus, this section does not appl y. **Certification of Compliance** All facilities should have submitted a certification of compliance for their BIF unit(s) by August 21, 1992, unless they received an automatic or case

- by

- case extension from EPA. The automatic extension postponed the submittal date for the certification of compliance until Augus t 23, 1993. EPA estimates that there are currentl y zero facilities with BIF units that are operating under a case

- by

- case time extension. Thus, this section does not appl y. **Periodic Recertifications** All facilities with interim status BIF units must submit a periodic recertification every three ye ars. **Automatic Hazardous Waste Feed Cutoff System** EPA expects 85% facilities with interim status units to experience an average of 12 emergency

cutoff occurrences per year . **Fugitive Emissions** EPA es timates that ten percent of facilities with interim status BIFs (five facilities) will submit a demonstration for an alternate means of fugitive emissions control. **Monitoring and Inspections** 40 CFR 266.103(j) and Appendix IX, sections 2 and 3 contain monitoring and inspection requirements for BIF units and equipment, hazardous waste feed, and stack emissions. EPA estimates the respondent universe for each of these requirements as follows:

• EPA es timates that 85% all facilities with interim status BIF units will perform the following activities once per year to compl y with Appendix 2 requirements:

• Test the calibration drift (CD), response time (RT), calibration error (CE) test procedure, and re lative accuracy (RA) test procedure (Appendix IX , sections 2.1 and 2.2), including a daily calibration check for each monitor (2.1.10.1 and 2.2.9.1) and a dail y s ys tem audit (2.1.10.2 and 2.2.9.2), and provide the required maintenance for monitoring sy stem s; since much of this work is ty picall y performed b y sophisticated monitoring

## 135 

# sy stems, EPA estimates that technical staff typically spend an hour per day ensuring that monitoring equipment is operating properl y, for an average total of 330 technical hours over the course of a ye ar;

• Record the CEMS response immediately after a calibration drift test (Appendix IX, sections 2.1.6.1.1 and 2.2.6.1.1);

• Record the time (upscale response time) required to reach 95 percent of the stable value during the CD t est (Appendix IX, sections 2.1.6.2.1 and 2.2.6.2.1);

• Record the responses of the CEMS at three measurement points (Appendix IX, sections 2.1.6.3.1.2 and 2.2.6.3.1.2);

• Summarize results on data sheets (Appendix IX, sections 2.1.6.1.2, 2.1.6.3.2, 2.1 .6.4.5, 2.2.6.1.2, and 2.2.6.3.2);

• Prepare a report of the data from all performance test methods (Appendix IX, section 2.1.6.4.3); and

• Prepare and submit a report of the results of the CD, RA, response time, and CE test, as appropriate (Appendix IX, sections 2.1.8 and 2.2.8);

• EPA estimates that ten percent of facilities with interim status BIF units ( 3 facilities) will need to take the combustion unit out of service during the calibration drift test period and record the onset and duration of downtime (Appendix IX, section 2.1.5.2 and 2.2.5.2);

• EPA estimates that five percent of facilities with interim status BIF units (two facilities) will request approval for an alternative relative accuracy procedure (Appendix IX, section 2.1.9.2;

• EPA estimates that five percent of facilities with BIF units will request approval for an alternative calibration procedure (Appendix IX, section 2.1.10.1 and 2.2.9.1);

• EPA estimates that all facilities with existing BIF units will already have developed a quality assurance (QA) program during interim status to evaluate and monitor CEMS performance (Appendix IX, se ctions 2.1.10 and 2.2.9);

• EPA expects 85% facilities with interim status BIF units to carry out the QA plan by conducting a quarterly CE test (2.1.10.3 and 2.2.9.3) (for a total of 188 activities) and an annual specification test (2.1.10.4 and 2.2.9.4);

• EPA estimates that four facilities with interim status BIF units will use an alternative metals implementation approach. These facilities will perform the following activities

## 136 

## each working day (330 times per year) to comply with Appendix 3 requirement s 4 

## :

• Determine emissions of metals (Appendix IX, sections 3.1);

• Record data for metals sampling trains (Appendix IX, section 3.1.5.1.5); and

• For monitoring of metals, record emissions data and maintain a laboratory log for all calibrations (Appendix IX, sections 3.1.6).

• EPA estimates that 85% of all facilities with interim status BIF units will perform the following activities regularly to comply with 40 CFR 266.103(j) requirements:

• Conduct monitoring and inspections of hazardous wast e, other fuels and feedstock, and stack gas emissions (§266.103(j)(1));

• Inspect the BIF and associated equipment at least each working day (§266.103(j)(2)); and

• Record monitoring and inspection data (§266.103(j)(4)).

 Capital and O&M costs associated with these activities include the purchasing and maintenance of continuous emissions monitors, sampling equipment, and a data aquisition system. The estimated purchase price of the equipment is $93,930.

• EPA estimates that ten percent of faci lities with interim status BIF units will demonstrate that weekly inspections of the hazardous waste feed cutoff system would unduly restrict or upset operations, and will receive approval for monthly inspections. EPA expects that these facilities will be granted approval to perform inspections every 30 days, for a total of 60 (5 x 12) activities. EPA expects the remaining 29 facilities with interim status BIF units to inspect their hazardous waste feed cutoff system weekly, for a total of 1508 activities

. **Recordkeeping** EPA expects all 85% of all facilities with interim status BIF units to comply with recordkeeping requirements. **Standards to Control Organic Emissions** EPA estimates that no facilities with permitted units will submit a demonstration. **Standards to Control Metals Emissions**

4 

## The respondent universe for each of these requirements reflects EPA's estimate that 4 facilities with interim status BIF units will use an alternative metals implementation approach. The se facilities will conduct each activity 330 times a year, or once each working day. Thus, EPA estimates that each of these activities will be performed 1,320 times (4 x 330).

## 137



## EPA estimates that 20 percent of all facilities with interim status BIF units will utilize the alternate metals implementation approach. However, these facilities have already submitted their documentation of the demonstration. Thus, zero facilities will submit documentation showing compliance with the alternate metals approach. [Facilities with permitted BIF units submit this information with the Part B permit application. Therefore, these facilities are burden ed in the Part B permit applications and modifications portion of this ICR.] **Direct Transfer Requirements** EPA estimates that 10 percent of facilities with BIF units will want to want to use the direct transfer provisions of §266.111 to transfer their hazardous waste. These facilities will need to conduct periodic inspections of their waste and record and maintain inspection data. Facilities with interim status units will also have to collect data, submit a certification that the installation meets NFPA codes, and maintain this data under §266.111(d)(2). EPA further estimates that 20 percent of these facilities have existing direct transfer equipment that does not have secondary containment, and therefore, will collect data to support, and obtain and ke ep on file, a written assessment that attests to the equipment's integrity. [Facilities with permitted BIF units submit this information with the Part B permit application. Therefore, these facilities are burdened in the Part B permit applications and mo difications portion of this ICR.] **Regulation of Residues** EPA estimates that all facilities with cement kilns will want to apply for an exclusion for their residue from classification as hazardous waste. EPA expects that an average of eleven of these facilities will be operating under permits . EPA expects cement kilns to test their residues 52 times per year. EPA expects other facilities to conduct residue testing 12 times per year. EPA estimates that the facilities with interim status units will al so maintain a supporting rationale for handling nondetect data points. EPA estimates that ten percent of the facilities applying for an exclusion (one facility per year) will maintain a supporting rationale for an alternate statistical approach. [Facilities with permitted BIF units submit this information with the Part B permit application. Therefore, these facilities are burdened in the Part B permit applications and modifications portion of this ICR.] **PART B PERMIT APPLICATION AND PERMIT MODIFICATIONS REQUIREMENTS FOR BIFs**  **(Exhibits 5A -**  **5C)** Exhibits 5A, 5B, and 5C present estimated respondent burden and cost associated with Part B information requirements and permit modifications for facilities with BIF units. Exhibit 5A covers general Part B information requirements applicable to facilities with BIFs. Exhibit 5B includes unit

- specific requirements applicable to BIF units, and Exhibit 5C covers information submitted with permit modifications. **General Part B Information Requirements for BIFs (Exhibit 5A)** Exhibit 5A presents burden and cost estimates for general Part B information requirements for facilities with BIF units. This section discusses the respondent universe for these requirements. **Legal Review** EPA estimates that for all facilities submitting a Part B permit application owners/operators will

## 138



## have legal counsel review the completed application prior to submittal to EPA, even though there is no regulatory requirement to do so. **General Requirements** EPA estimates that each year one percent of the facilities submitting a P art B permit application for their BIF unit(s) will submit a demonstration for relief from specific Part B information requirements under §270.14(a). **General Facility Standards** Based on previous experience, EPA makes the following estimates regarding the Part B requirements for general facility standards:

• All facilities submitting a Part B permit application for BIF units will read the regulations, prepare a written description of the facility, and submit and file the general facility standards information;

• The burden associated with preparing the waste analysis plan, inspection schedule, personnel training programs, contingency plan, and closure descriptions and estimates for current facilities with interim status BIF units are covered in the general facility standards portion of this ICR. Therefore, this section only covers the burden for facilities that are expected to begin burning hazardous waste in BIF units during the period covered by this ICR. EPA expects that an average of three faci lities per year will submit a Part B permit application for a new BIF unit.

• EPA estimates that each year one percent of the facilities submitting a Part B permit application for its BIF unit(s) will submit a demonstration for a waiver of the security procedures and equipment requirements (§270.14(b)(4)). EPA estimates that all facilities applying for a waiver will receive one.

• One percent of the facilities submitting a Part B permit application will submit a demonstration for an exemption from spec ial equipment requirements;

• One percent of facilities submitting a Part B permit application will submit a demonstration for an exemption from aisle space requirements under §270.14(b)(6);

• Forty percent of the facilities submitting a Part B permit application for their BIF unit(s) will have to submit information regarding ignitable, reactive, or incompatible wastes under §270.14(b)(9);

 All facilities submitting a Part B permit application will submit a description of traffic patterns, volume, and control, and compile and document facility location information;

 No facilities will prepare a demonstration of compliance with the seismic standard under §270.14(b)(11)(ii);

 EPA estimates that 24 percent of facilities submitting a part B permit application

## 139 

## ( two facilities) are located in a 100

-year floodplain. These facilities will have to submit an engineering analysis and engineering studies under §270.14(b)(11)(iv); and

 EPA estimates that no facilities submitting a Part B permit application for their BIF units will submit a compliance plan and schedule.

 EPA estimates that new facilities submitting Part B permit applications will prepare an outline of personnel training program, write descriptions of the necessary closure activities, estimate final closure, and write the closure schedule.

**Financial Assurance** The burden associated with preparing financial assurance materials for current facilities with interim status BIF units are covered in the general facility standards portion of this ICR. Therefore, this section only covers the burden for facilities that are expected to begin burning hazardous waste in BIF units during the period covered by this ICR. EPA expects that an average of three facilities per year will submit a Part B permit applic ation for a new BIF unit. Of these facilities, EPA estimates that 80 percent (two facilities) will secure financial assurance through outside institutions. These facilities will submit financial assurance documentation as part of their Part B permit appl ication. EPA does not anticipate that any of the facilities seeking a permit for their BIF unit(s) will choose to use a State financial mechanism in lieu of the Federal mechanisms. All facilities with new BIF units must submit documentation of liability coverage for sudden accidental occurrences. EPA estimates that no facilities will submit an application for a variance from the financial responsibility requirements. **Topographical Map** All facilities submitting a Part B permit application for their BIF unit(s) must submit a topographical map as required under §270.14(b)(9) in their Part B permit applications. **Schedules of Compliance** EPA estimates that five percent of all facilities submitting a Part B permit application for their BIF unit(s ) will submit a schedule of compliance with their application. Of these facilities, EPA expects that none will submit an alternative schedule of compliance, and none will submit an application for two compliance schedules. EPA does not anticipate that any facilities will submit evidence of firm public commitment to cease conducting regulated activities. **Specific Part B Information Requirements for BIFs (Exhibit 5B)** Exhibit 5B presents burden and cost estimates for unit

- specific Part B information requirements associated with BIFs. This section discusses the respondent universe for these requirements. **Fugitive Emissions**

## 140



## EPA estimates that ten percent of all facilities submitting a Part B application for their BIFs will submit a demonstration in support of an alternate means of fugitive emissions control. **Part B Information Requirements Relating to the Pre -**  **Trial Burn, T rial Burn, and Post** **- Trial**  **Burn Periods** EPA expects all facilities submitting a Part B permit application for their BIF unit(s) will submit statements suggesting the conditions necessary to operate in compliance with §266.104 through §266.107 during the p re - trial burn and post

- trial burn periods. These facilities are also expected to submit a trial burn plan and all required certifications. EPA also expects all these facilities, minus the estimated two facilities per year that will submit data in lieu of a trial burn under §270.22(a)(6) (23

- 2 = 21), to conduct the trial burn and make determinations and submit a trial burn report. EPA also estimates equipment costs, as shown in the exhibit. EPA expects no facilities will submit a request for an extens ion of the 720

-hour operational period with the Part B application. EPA estimates that one facility per year will request a later date for submission of the Part B permit application or the trial burn results. **Waivers of the Trial Burn (1)**  **Waiver of the Trial Burn for Boilers Operating Under Special Operating Requirements**  EPA estimates that there are 30 permitted facilities with boiler units, three of which are expected to submit a Part B permit application over the period covered by this ICR. EPA estimates that 30 percent of all facilities with boiler units will submit a demonstration for a waiver of the trial burn. . **(2) Waiver of the Trial Burn for BIFs Burning Low Risk Waste**  EPA estimates that annually, five facilities will submit a demonstration in support of a waiver on the basis of low risk waste. **(3) Waiver of the Trial Burn for Metals**  EPA estimates that 20 percent of all facilities submitting Part B permits will submit a demonstration in support of a waiver of the trial burn for me tals **(4) Waiver of the Trial Burn for Particulate Matter**  EPA estimates that 20 percent of all facilities submitting part B permits will submit a demonstration in support of a waiver of the trial burn for particulate matter. **(5) Waiver of the Trial**  **Burn for HCl and Cl 2**  

## Emissions EPA estimates that 30 percent of all facilities submitting part B permit s will submit a demonstration in support of a waiver of the trial burn for HCl and Cl 2 

## .

## 141



## (6) **Data in Lieu of a Trial Burn** EPA estimates that ten p ercent of all facilities submitting a part B permit will submit information in support of providing data from compliance testing of the device, or data from compliance testing, trial burns, or operational burns for a similar unit, in lieu of compliance tes ting. **Alternative HC Limit for Industrial Furnaces with Organic Matter in Raw Materials** EPA estimates that ten percent of all facilities with permitted BIF units will submit with the Part B application a demonstration in support of an alternative HC limit. . **Alternative Metals Implementation Approach** EPA estimates that 20 percent of all facilities with new BIF units will submit a demonstration in support of an alternative metals implementation approach with the Part B permit application. [Facilities submitting this information before submitting a Part B permit application are covered in the specific units portion of this ICR.] **Automatic Hazardous Waste Feed Cutoff System** EPA assumes that all facilities submitting a Part B permit application for their BIF unit(s) will provide information on the automatic hazardous waste feed cutoff system. **Direct Transfer Requirements** EPA estimates that 10 percent of all facilities with BIF units will want to use the direct transfer provisions of §266.111 to transfer their hazardous waste. EPA expects existing facilities to submit information on their direct transfer systems during interim status, before submittal of the Part B permit application. [The burden for these facilities is covered in the specifi c units portion of this ICR.] EPA expects only new facilities to prepare and submit direct transfer information with the Part B permit application. Thus, EPA expects that zero facilities per year to collect data and obtain a certification that the instal lation meets NFPA codes. EPA expects that these facilities will have existing direct transfer equipment that has secondary containment, and therefore will not need to collect data to support, and obtain and keep on file, a written assessment that attests to the equipment's integrity. **Regulation of Residues** EPA estimates that approximately one

- third of all facilities will submit demonstrations in support of an exclusion from classification as hazardous waste for their residues. EPA expects facilities with new BIF units that apply for this exclusion to prepare and maintain a rationale for handling non

- detect data points. Thus, EPA expects that annually, one facility with new BIF units to prepare such information. EPA does not expect any of these facilities to apply for an alternate statistical approach. [EPA expects existing facilities to submit this information during interim status, before submitting a Part B permit application. These facilities are covered in the specific units portion of this ICR.] **Permit Modifications for BIFs (Exhibit 5C)** Exhibit 5C presents burden and cost estimates associated with permit modifications and expiration and continuation of permits. The respondent universe for permit modifications and renewals is discussed

## 142



## below. **Transfer of Permits** In addition to the permit modi fications discussed below, EPA estimates that no facilities with permitted BIFs will submit the written agreement required to transfer ownership or operational control of a facility. **Permit Modification at the Request of the Agency** EPA estimates that d

uring the 3

- year period covered by this ICR, EPA estimates that 25 percent of facilities will seek Class 1 permit modifications; 62 percent will seek Class 2 permit modifications; and 32 percent will seek Class 3 modifications. EPA expects that the majori ty of these permit modification requests will be initiated by the permittees under §270.42, but anticipates that 33 percent of the Class 2 and 3 permit modifications submitted will be modifications initiated by the Agency under §270.41. [The BIF regulatio ns, promulgated on February 21, 1991, required owners and operators of permitted facilities that had an existing BIFs burning hazardous waste to submit a Class 1 modification on or before the effective data of the rule. In addition, these facilities had to submit a Class 2 or 3 modification within 180 days of the rule. This ICR assumes that all facilities subject to this requirement have already submitted the required modifications. Therefore, this ICR contains no burden for such modifications.] **Permit Modification at the Request of the Permittee**  EPA estimates that 1 5 facilities will submit Class 1 permit modifications during the period covered by this ICR (approximately five each year). In addition, based on the discussion above, EPA estimates that 25 Class 2 permit modifications and approximately 12 Class 3 permit modifications will be submitted at the request of the permittee, for a total of 3 7 Class 2 and 3 modifications. EPA also estimates that each year one facility with BIF unit(s) will re quest that EPA classify its permit modification as a Class 1 modification. This facility will submit information in support of its request. **Temporary Authorizations** EPA estimates that 25 percent of the facilities seeking a Class 2 or Class 3 permit mo dification at their own request will submit a request for temporary authorization under §270.42(e). **Expiration and Continuation of Permits** EPA does not expect any facilities to submit applications for renewal of permits for BIF units during the period covered by this ICR.

# 6(e) **BOTTOM LINE BURDEN HOURS AND COST TA BLES**  **(i) Respondent Tally**  The annual ized burden to respondents under the RCRA requirements applicable to the 114 BIF facilities is estimated to be 2 91,757 hours, and 2,173 responses . The average response burden works out to 1 34 hours per response . The total annualized capital/start

-up cost is $ 9,839,942 and the O & M is $ 11,164,608 . (See exhibit 7) **(ii) Agency Tally**  The annual burden to the Agency under the BIF requirements is estimated to be 8984 hours, at a cost of $ 366,572
. 

# 6(f) **REA SONS FOR CHA**  **NGE IN BURDEN** The previously appro ved BIF ICR, #1361. 15 , estimated an annual respondent burden of 238,785 hours. This current ICR # 1361.1 6 , estimates an annual respondent burden of 2 91,757 hours, which is an in crease of 52,972 hours

. The change in burden is the result of an adjustment due to an increase in universe size. **6(g) BURDEN STATEMENT**  

## The average reporting and recordkeeping burden for the universe of 114 BIF facilities is 2, 559 hours per facility. These estimates include time for complying with requirements associated with general facility standards, recordkeeping, contingency plan and emergency procedures, closure, financial assurance, and conditions applicable to all permits; specific unit require ments for BIFs. 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 in structions; 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 c omply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements; 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. 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 are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and 48 CFR chapter 15.
