is restricted by statute.

III. Description of Programs and 

Potential Disclosure of Information 

Claimed as CBI to Contractor and 

Subcontractors 

The EPA’s OECA has responsibility 

for protecting public health and the 

environment by enforcing standards for 

air pollution. In order to implement 

various CAA, APPS and AIM programs, 

OECA collects compliance reports and 

other information from the regulated 

industry. Occasionally, the information 

submitted to, or obtained by, the EPA is 

claimed to be CBI by persons submitting 

data to the EPA. Information submitted 

under such a claim is handled in 

accordance with the EPA’s regulations 

at 40 CFR part 2, subpart B, and in 

accordance with the EPA procedures 

that are consistent with those 

regulations. When the EPA has 

determined that disclosure of 

information claimed as CBI to EPA 

contractors or subcontractors is 

necessary, the corresponding contract 

must address the appropriate use and 

handling of the information by the EPA 

contractor and subcontractors and the 

EPA contractor and subcontractors must 

require its personnel who require access 

to information claimed as CBI to sign 

written non-disclosure agreements 

before they are granted access to data. 

In accordance with 40 CFR 2.301(h), 

the EPA has determined that EPA 

contractor Eastern Research Group, 

Incorporated (ERG), 14555 Avion 

Parkway, Suite 200, Chantilly, VA 

20151, and ERG subcontractors Allen 

Lyons Consulting LLC; CohnReznick 

LLP; and James J. Carroll, CPA 

(collectively referred to as 

‘‘subcontractors’’ in this notice) require 

access to CBI submitted to the EPA 

under the CAA, APPS, and the AIM for 

the work they perform under Contract 

Number 68HERC24D0009. We are 

providing notice and an opportunity to 


lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1
Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 200 / Wednesday, October 16, 2024 / Notices 83495 

comment on their access to information 

claimed as CBI. We are issuing this 

Federal Register notice to inform all 

affected submitters that we plan to grant 

access to material that may be claimed 

as CBI to ERG and its subcontractors on 

a need-to-know basis. 

Under Contract Number 

68HERC24D0009, ERG provides 

enforcement support for the EPA’s 

regulatory and enforcement activities, 

including field inspections, 

investigations, audits, and other CAA 

regulatory and enforcement support that 

involve access to information claimed as 

CBI. ERG also employs subcontractors, 

who support these activities, under the 

above-listed contract. ERG and its 

subcontractors require access to 

information claimed as CBI to support 

EPA enforcement activities described 

above. Access to data, including 

information claimed as CBI, will 

commence six days after the date of 

publication of this notice in the Federal 

Register, and will continue until 

October 21, 2029. If the contract and 

associated subcontracts are extended, 

this access will continue for the 

remainder of the ERG contract without 

further notice. If the contract expires 

prior to October 21, 2029, the access 

will cease at that time. If ERG employs 

additional subcontractors to support the 

EPA on a regular basis or on a limited 

or one-time basis under the above-listed 

contract, and those subcontractors 

require access to CBI, the EPA will 

notify affected companies of the 

contemplated disclosure and provide 

them with an opportunity to comment 

by either sending them a letter or by 

publishing an additional notice in the 

Federal Register. 

Parties who wish to obtain further 

information about this Federal Register 

notice, or about OECA’s disclosure of 

information claimed as CBI to ERG and 

its subcontractors, may contact the 

person listed under FOR FURTHER

INFORMATION CONTACT.

control number. 

This notice allows 60 days for public 

comments. Supporting documents, 

which explain in detail the information 

that the EPA will be collecting, are 

available in the public docket for this 

ICR. The docket can be viewed online 

at www.regulations.gov or in person at

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

the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), 

EPA is soliciting comments and 

information to enable it to: (i) evaluate 

whether the proposed collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

agency, including whether the 

information will have practical utility; 

(ii) evaluate the accuracy of the agency’s 

estimate of the burden of the proposed 

collection of information, including the 

validity of the methodology and 

assumptions used; (iii) enhance the 

quality, utility, and clarity of the 

information to be collected; and (iv) 

minimize the burden of the collection of 

information on those who are to 

respond, including through the use of 

appropriate automated electronic, 

mechanical, or other technological 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology. EPA will 

consider the comments received and 

amend the ICR as appropriate. The final 

ICR package will then be submitted to 

OMB for review and approval. At that 

time, EPA will issue another Federal 

Register notice to announce the 

submission of the ICR to OMB and the 

opportunity to submit additional 

comments to OMB. 

Abstract: GreenChill is a voluntary 

partnership program sponsored by EPA 

that encourages food retailers and 

manufacturers to adopt cost effective 

technologies and practices that reduce 

refrigerant emissions and improve 

operational efficiency. The GreenChill 

Program works with the food retail 

industry to lower barriers inhibiting the 

implementation of technologies and 

practices that reduce refrigerant 

emissions. The Program effectively 

promotes the adoption of emission 

reduction practices and technologies by 

engaging GreenChill Partners to set an 

annual refrigerant emission reduction 

goal and develop a refrigerant 

management plan reflecting the 

company’s implementation objectives. 

Implementation of the Partners’ 

refrigeration management plan to reduce 

refrigerant emissions enhances the 

protection of the environment and may
