Abstract: The Hazardous Waste 

Report Instructions and Forms booklet 

is updated every two years, to comply 

with the statutory mandate that EPA 

conduct a survey of hazardous waste 

generation at least every two years. The 

report, known as the ‘‘Biennial Report,’’ 

has been conducted since 1989, every 

odd-numbered year, known as the data 

collection year. The even-numbered 

years are known as the reporting years. 

The ICR has been renewed every data 

collection year, and the forms have been 

made available to respondents at the 

beginning of the reporting year. 

However, EPA is amending the current 

ICR this year so that the booklet for the 

next cycle, the 2013 cycle, will be 

available at the beginning of the data 

collection year. This change is in 

response to many requests by States. 

The proposed changes to the 2013 

booklet include: (1) Some management 

method codes will be consolidated in 

order to ease reporting, (2) the waste 

minimization codes will be revised in 

order to assist filers with reporting their 

waste minimization activities, and (3) 

editorial changes will be made to the 

description of some source codes in 

order to improve clarity for filers. 

This amendment will not affect the 

Notification booklet or the Part A Permit 

Application booklet, which are both 

part of this ICR. 

Form Numbers: 8700–13 A/B. 

Respondents/affected entities: 

Business or other for-profit as well as 

State, Local, or Tribal governments. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

mandatory (RCRA sections 3002 and 

3004). 

Estimated number of respondents: 

56,672. 

Frequency of response: Biennially. 

Total estimated burden: 432,903 

hours per year. Burden is defined at 5 

CFR 1320.03(b). 

Total estimated cost: $18,404,963 (per 

year), includes $18,153,496 annualized 

labor and $251,467 annualized capital 

or operation & maintenance costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is a 

decrease of 7,341 hours in the total 

estimated respondent burden compared 

with the ICR currently approved by 

OMB. This decrease is due to changes 

in the waste minimization data reported 

in Form GM (i.e., use of a revised set of 

waste minimization codes for which the 

requirement to submit comments is 

optional).
