Affected entities: Entities potentially affected by this action are chemical manufacturers, petroleum refineries, water treatment systems, non-chemical manufacturers, etc.

Title: Risk Management Program Requirements and Petitions to Modify the List of Regulated Substances under Section 112(r) of the Clean Air Act.

ICR number: EPA ICR No. 1656.14, OMB Control No. 2050–0144.

ICR status: This ICR is currently scheduled to expire on July 31, 2012. An Agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information, unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA’s regulations in title 40 of the CFR, after appearing in the Federal Register when approved, are listed in 40 CFR part 9, and are displayed either by publication in the Federal Register or by other appropriate means, such as on the related collection instrument or form, if applicable. The display of OMB control numbers in certain EPA regulations is consolidated in 40 CFR part 9.

Abstract: The 1990 CAA Amendments added section 112(r) to provide for the prevention and mitigation of accidental releases. Section 112(r) mandates that EPA promulgate a list of ‘‘regulated substances’’ with threshold quantities and establish procedures for the addition and deletion of substances from the list of regulated substances. Processes at stationary sources that contain more than a threshold quantity of a regulated substance are subject to accidental release prevention regulations promulgated under CAA section 112(r)(7). These two rules are codified as 40 CFR part 68. Part 68 requires that sources with more than a threshold quantity of a regulated substance in a process develop and implement a risk management program and submit a risk management plan to EPA. The compliance schedule for the part 68 requirements was established by rule on June 20, 1996. The burden to sources that are currently covered by part 68, for initial rule compliance, including rule familiarization and program implementation was accounted for in previous ICRs. Sources submitted their first RMPs on June 21, 1999. For most sources, the next compliance deadlines occurred thereafter at 5 year intervals—on June 21, 2004, and subsequently on June 21, 2009. Some sources revised and submitted their RMPs between the five-year deadlines. These sources were then assigned a new five-year compliance deadline based on the date of their most recent revised plan submission. The next submission deadline of RMPs for most sources is June 21, 2014. However, as only some regulated entities have a compliance deadline of June 2014, the remaining sources have been assigned a deadline in 2013, 2015, 2016 or 2017 (the last two years are after the period covered by this ICR) based on the date of their most recent submission. The period covered by this ICR includes the regulatory reporting deadline, June 2014. In this ICR, EPA has accounted for burden for new sources that may become subject to the regulations, currently covered sources with compliance deadlines in this ICR period (2013 to 2015), sources that are out of compliance since the last regulatory deadline but are expected to comply during this ICR period, and sources that have deadlines beyond this ICR period but are required to comply with certain prevention program documentation requirements.

An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPA’s regulations in 40 CFR are listed in 40 CFR part 9.

The EPA would like to solicit

comments to:

(i) Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the Agency, including whether the information will have practical utility;

(ii) Evaluate the accuracy of the Agency’s estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used;

(iii) Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and

(iv) Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses.

Burden Statement: The burden and costs stated below are from the current approved ICR. The public reporting burden will depend on the size of the sources complying with 40 CFR part 68 requirements. In this ICR, the public reporting burden for rule familiarization for new sources is estimated to range from 12 to 32 hours per source. The public reporting burden to prepare and submit an RMP for new sources is estimated to range from 8.25 to 33 hours. The public reporting burden for new sources to develop a prevention program is estimated to range from 7 to 188 hours per source. The public reporting burden for those sources that claim CBI is estimated to be 9.5 hours per source. The public reporting burden for currently covered sources to prepare and submit an RMP is estimated to range from 5 to 28 hours. The publicrecord keeping burden to maintain onsite documentation for currently covered sources is estimated to range from 4.5 to 124 hours. The total annual public reporting burden for all sources is 84,729 hours (254,187 hours over three years). The total annual burden estimated for 16 implementing agencies is 9,253 hours (27,759 hours for three years). Therefore, the total annual burden for all sources and states is estimated to be 93,982 hours (281,946 hours for three years).

Burden means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, or disclose or provide information to or for a Federal agency. This includes the time needed to review instructions; develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; adjust the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable instructions and

Frequency of response: Every five years, unless the facilities need to update their previous submission earlier to comply with a rule requirement.

Estimated total average number of responses for each respondent: One.

Estimated total annual burden hours: 93,982 Hours including burden for implementing agencies.

Estimated total annual costs: $9,785,371.00. There are no capital or operating and maintenance costs associated with this ICR since allsources are required to submit RMPs online using the electronic reporting system, RMP*eSubmit.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  I. Background
A. California’s Truck Idling Requirements

By letter dated May 9, 2008, CARB informed EPA that it had adopted its Truck Idling Requirements, and requested that EPA confirm that certain provisions of the requirements are not preempted by sections 209(a) of the Clean Air Act (Act); certain provisions are conditions precedent pursuant to section 209(a) of the Act; 1 certain provisions are within-the-scope of previous waivers and authorizations issued pursuant to sections 209(b) and 209(e) of the Act, respectively; and at least one provision requires and merits a full authorization pursuant to section 209(e) of the Act. 2 CARB’s 2008 Truck Idling Requirements became effective California state law on November 15, 2006, amending title 13, California Code of Regulations (CCR) sections 1956.8, 2404, 2424, 2425, and 2485. 3

CARB’s Truck Idling Requirements consist of three elements: (1) ‘‘New engine requirements’’ that require new California-certified 2008 and subsequent model year on-road diesel engines in vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) greater than 14,000 pounds (i.e., heavy-duty diesel vehicles or ‘‘HDDV’’s) be equipped with a system that automatically shuts down the engine after five minutes of continuous idling; (2) ‘‘sleeper truck requirements’’ that require the operator of a sleeper truck to manually shut down the engine after five minutes of continuous idling;
