Proposed Information Collection Request; Comment Request; 
Aircraft Engines--Supplemental Information Related to Exhaust Emissions 
(Renewal)

AGENCY: Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection Agency is planning to submit an 
information collection request (ICR), ``Aircraft Engines--Supplemental 
Information Related to Exhaust Emissions'' (EPA ICR No. 2427.03, OMB 
Control No. 2060-0680) to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for 
review and approval in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 
U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). Before doing so, EPA is soliciting public 
comments on specific aspects of the proposed information collection as 
described below. This is a proposed extension of the ICR. 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.

DATES: Comments must be submitted on or before July 28, 2015.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments, referencing the Docket ID Number 
above, online using www.regulations.gov (our preferred method), or by 
mail to: EPA Docket Center, Environmental Protection Agency, Mail Code 
28221T, 1200 Pennsylvania Ave. NW., Washington, DC 20460.
    EPA's policy is that all comments received will be included in the 
public docket without change including any personal information 
provided, unless the comment includes profanity, threats, information 
claimed to be Confidential Business Information (CBI) or other 
information whose disclosure is restricted by statute.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Alan Stout, Office of Air and 
Radiation, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency; telephone number: 734-
214-4805; email address: stout.alan@epa.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 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 the EPA Docket Center, WJC West, 
Room 3334, 1301 Constitution Ave. NW., Washington, DC. The telephone 
number for the Docket Center is 202-566-1744. For additional 
information about EPA's public docket, visit http://www.epa.gov/dockets.
    Pursuant to section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the 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, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses. 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: Clean Air Act section 231 (42 U.S.C. 7571) authorizes EPA 
to adopt emission standards for aircraft engines. The Clean Air Act 
additionally provides broad authority for EPA to collect information 
related to the regulations we adopt for aircraft and other emission 
sources (42 U.S.C. 7414(a)(1)). EPA is accordingly adopting a new set 
of emission standards for aircraft gas turbine engines and adding a 
requirement for manufacturers to submit information related to 
compliance with the emission standards.
    Respondents/affected entities: Manufacturers.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory.
    Estimated number of respondents: 10 (total).
    Frequency of response: Annual.
    Currently approved estimated burden: 60 hours (per year). Burden is 
defined at 5 CFR 1320.03(b).
    Currently approved estimated cost: No annualized capital or 
operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in estimates: The final ICR submitted to OMB will contain 
revised burden estimates that reflect any changes to the collection 
over the past three years and any public comments received.

Acting Director, Collections Strategies Division.
