Abstract: The Toxic Substances 

Control Act (TSCA) amendments of June 

22, 2016, known as the Frank R. 

Lautenberg Chemical Safety for the 21st 

Century Act, expanded the categories of 

people to whom EPA may disclose 

TSCA confidential business information 

(CBI). The amendments authorize EPA 

to disclose TSCA CBI to state, tribal, and 

local governments; environmental, 

health, and medical professionals; and 

emergency responders, under certain 

conditions, including consistency with 

guidance that EPA is required to 

develop. 

Three guidance documents have been 

developed, corresponding to the new 

authorities in TSCA section 14(d)(4), (5), 

and (6). The conditions for access vary 

under each of the new provisions, but 

generally include the following: 

Requesters must show that they have a 

need for the information related to their 

employment, professional, or legal 

duties; recipients of TSCA CBI are 

prohibited from disclosing or permitting 

further disclosure of the information to 

individuals not authorized to receive it 

(physicians/nurses may disclose the 

information to their patient); and except 

in emergency situations EPA must 

notify the entity that made the CBI 

claim at least 15 days prior to disclosing 

the CBI. In addition, under these new 

provisions, requesters (except in some 

emergency situations) are required to 

sign an agreement and may be required 

to submit a statement of need to EPA. 

In accordance with the requirements of 

TSCA section 14(c)(4)(B), the guidance 

documents cover the content and form 

of the agreements and statements 

required under each provision and 

include information on where and how 

to submit requests to EPA. 

Form numbers: Not applicable. 

Respondents/affected entities: 

Respondents affected by this activity are 

mainly government employees (federal, 

state, local, tribal), as well as medical 

professionals, such as doctors and 

nurses. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Voluntary. 

Frequency of response: On occasion. 

Estimated number of respondents: 6 

(total). 

Total estimated burden: 89 hours (per 

year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.3(b). 

Total estimated cost: $5,873.98 (per 

year), includes $0 annualized capital or 

operation & maintenance costs. 

Changes in the estimates: There is an 

increase in the estimated burden costs 

compared with that currently approved 

by OMB. The increase in the respondent 

burden and agency costs were caused by 

an increase in the hourly wages and a 

change in the methodology to calculate 

loaded wages (wages plus fringe benefits 

and overhead). The change in the 

estimated number of respondents is 

based on EPA experience. The changes, 

which are discussed in more detail in 

the ICR, qualify as an adjustment.

Action and Payment of Response 

Costs by Prospective Lessee at the 

C-Brite Removal Site in Harbor City; 

Los Angeles County, California 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice of proposed settlement; 

request for public comment. 

SUMMARY: In accordance with the 

Comprehensive Environmental 

Response, Compensation and Liability 

Act of 1980, as amended (‘‘CERCLA’’), 

notice is hereby given that the 

Environmental Protection Agency 

(EPA), has entered into a proposed 

settlement, embodied in an 

Administrative Settlement Agreement 

for Removal Action and Payment of 

Response Costs by Prospective Lessee 

(‘‘Settlement Agreement’’), with 1213 

253rd, LLC (‘‘Prospective Lessee’’), a 

prospective lessee and purchaser of the 

real property located at 1213 253rd 

Street, Harbor City, Los Angeles County, 

California, known as the Former C-Brite 

Metal Finishing Facility Site (‘‘C-Brite 

Site’’ or ‘‘Site’’). C-Brite Metal Finishing, 

Inc. operated a plating business at the 

Site from 1966 to 2017 and abandoned 

the property thereafter. Under the 

Settlement Agreement, the Prospective 

Lessee agrees to perform a portion of the 

removal work at the Site and to pay 

$80,000 for EPA’s oversight costs in 

exchange for liability protection, 

contribution protection, a release of any 

lien on the Site under CERCLA Section 

107(r) or 107(l), and a covenant not to 

sue for existing contamination at the 

Site, the payment of EPA’s oversight 

costs, or the removal work. EPA 

completed the removal of hazardous 

contamination at the site, and the Lessee 

will now continue with the removal of 

all the remaining non-hazardous debris. 

DATES: The Agency will consider public 

comments relating to the Settlement 

Agreement until April 15, 2022. EPA 

will consider all comments received and 

may modify or withdraw its consent to 

the Settlement Agreement if comments 

received disclose facts or considerations

For additional information about EPA’s

Abstract: The purpose of this 

information collection request is to 

collect information from applicants to 

select recipients for the Presidential 

Innovation Award for Environmental 

Educators (PIAEE) program and the 

President’s Environmental Youth 

Awards (PEYA) program. The U.S. 

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA 

or the Agency), in conjunction with the 

White House Council on Environmental 

Quality (CEQ), established the PIAEE 

program to meet the requirements of 

Section 8(e) of the National 

Environmental Education Act (20 U.S.C. 

5507(e)). The Agency established the 

PEYA program to meet the requirements 

of Section 8(d) of the National 

Environmental Education Act (20 U.S.C. 

5507(d)). 

Form Numbers: 5900–578, 6500–04. 

Respondents/affected entities: K–12 

teachers who teach on a full-time basis 

in a public school that is operated by a 

local education agency, including 

schools funded by the Bureau of Indian 

Affairs. For this program, a local 

education agency is one as defined by 

section 198 of the Elementary and 

Secondary Education Act of 1965 (now 

codified at 20 U.S.C. 7801(26)). 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Required to obtain information from the 

applicants for PIAEE and PEYA program 

and assess certain aspects of programs 

as established under Section 8(e) of the 

National Environmental Education Act 

(20 U.S.C. 5507(e)) and Section 8(d) of 

the National Environmental Education 

Act (20 U.S.C. 5507(d)) respectively. 

Estimated number of respondents: 75 

(total per year) for the PIAEE program 

and 250 (total per year) for the PEYA 

program. 

Frequency of response: Annually. 

Total estimated burden: 3,225 hours 

(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.03(b). 

Total estimated cost: $116,888 per 

year, includes $0 capital or operation & 

maintenance costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is an 

increase of 2,475 hours in the total 

estimated respondent burden compared 

with the ICR currently approved by 

OMB. This increase is due to the 

addition of the PEYA application. The 

individual cost per respondent for 

internal processing has also risen, due 

to increases in labor rate estimates.
