notice allows for an additional 30 days for public comments. Supporting

    Abstract: This information collection will provide the EPA with 
necessary information about the operations of drum reconditioners and 
similar facilities that clean out and recondition used industrial 
containers. The Agency needs this information to determine whether 
future regulatory or non-regulatory action is needed to address 
environmental issues identified in the EPA's Drum Reconditioner Damage 
Case Report, published in September 2022. The data collected through 
this ICR will advance the Agency's mission of protecting human health 
and the environment by determining the current engineering controls and 
standard practices employed at these facilities, and by collecting 
additional information about the environmental impacts these facilities 
may have on surrounding communities and the wider environment. All 
information submitted to the agency in response to the ICR that is 
claimed as confidential will be managed in accordance with applicable 
laws and EPA's regulations governing treatment of confidential business 
information at 40 CFR part 2, subpart B. Any information determined to 
constitute a trade secret will be protected under 18 U.S.C. 1905.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: This ICR applies to all facilities 
engaged in drum and/or industrial container reconditioning and/or 
recycling.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory under section 3007 of 
RCRA (42 U.S.C. 6927).
    Estimated number of respondents: 216 (total).
    Frequency of response: One-time response.
    Total estimated burden: 1,333 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.03(b).
    Total estimated cost: $136,000 (per year), which includes $0 
annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: Not applicable; this is a new ICR, so 
there is no previous burden.
