http://intranet.epa.gov/icrintra/. There you will find the following documents: OEI’s ICRAS Instructions (under Prepare ICR Package tab) and OMB’s

ROCIS IC Q&A (located under the Download Guidance tab), as well as the contact information for your appropriate ICR desk officer.

7. Abstract (4000 characters maximum, attach additional sheets as necessary): EPA promulgated Federal Implementation Plans (FIPs) under 

the Clean Air Act for Indian reservations located in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington in 40 CFR part 49 (70 FR 18074, April 8, 2005). The FIPs 

in the final rule, also referred to as the Federal Air Rules for Indian Reservations in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington (FARR), include 

information collection requirements associated with the partial delegation of administrative authority to a Tribe rule in § 49.122; the visible 

emissions rule in § 49.124; the fugitive particulate matter rule in § 49.126; the woodwaste burners rule in § 49.127; the rule for limiting sulfur 

in fuels in § 49.130; the rule for open burning in § 49.131; the rules for general open burning permits, agricultural burning permits, and 

forestry and silvicultural burning permits in §§ 49.132, 49.133, and 49.134; the emissions detrimental to human health or welfare rule in § 

49.135; the registration rule in § 49.138; and the rule for non-Title V operating permits in § 49.139. EPA uses this information to manage the 

activities and sources of air pollution on the Indian reservations in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington. EPA believes these information 

collection requirements are appropriate because they will enable EPA to develop and maintain accurate records of air pollution sources 

and their emissions, track emissions trends and changes, identify potential air quality problems, allow EPA to issue permits or approvals, 

and ensure appropriate records are available to verify compliance with these FIPs. The information collection requirements listed above 

are all mandatory. Entities potentially affected by this action include owners and operators of emission sources in all industry groups and 

tribal, federal, and local governments, located in the identified Indian reservations.

If change in burden is a INCREASE because of a Program Change due to Agency Discretion, please categorize the increase (select one):

 Changing Regulations 

 Miscellaneous Actions 

C. Explanation of Change in Burden

Explain the reasons for any program changes or adjustments reported; that is, provide a short statement addressing how the reduction in burden 

was achieved or why the increase in burden occurred. (If you need more space, provide a short summary here and elaborate in the Supporting 

Statement.)

There is a decrease of 1,176 hours in the total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved ICR Burdens. This decrease is 

the result of a number of changes. It reflects adjustments to the burden estimates for this collection based on consultation input, supersedence of the 

provisions of one rule (49.139), and experience with implementing the FARR. Some components of the burden estimates decreased and some 

components increased (but by a lesser amount overall), resulting in an estimate that is lower than the previous estimate. The decreases were primarily 

associated with a decrease in the burden estimate for future delegations under the delegation rule (49.122), a decrease in the estimate of the number of 

sources for the sulfur in fuels rule (49.130) and an estimate that no additional sources will voluntarily apply for a non-Title V operating permit under the 

operating permits rule (49.139).
